I rode in for a few hours of Saturday visiting. SUPER TIME !!! - Ohio gasoline is "magic." My Buick got 25 mpg on Indiana gas and 35 mpg on Ohio gas. - Got to see the actual stature of Nick Engler. All I knew before was that he was somewhere between a YouTube frame size and a projection-TV...

THAT is a good imagination !!

For what it's worth as datapoints.... I have the newer Bandsaw and Jointer models with latest dust-collections. I use the Bandsaw extensively and I note that the DC3300 does an incredibly better job than my little shop-vac there. A night and day difference. For the Jointer, I use it only occasionall...

I may have smaller things to buy at a "swap," but nothing really to sell.

Thanks!

Beautiful!

In fact I'd say the splines actually complement the "ziggurat" or "chevron" stylings in the quilt itself. Very nice!

Hi, I got more of the "SS Bug" lately so I've put the Retrofit Saw Guard on my older model 500. Nice to be tinkering again! At the same time I got the latest Carbide Combination Thin Kerf / super-duper Germany-made SS blade. I ran this today and for the first time my Mark V table-saw mode ...
