rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author geek4670 - I have had this saw for about a year. It is a good saw but not perfect and I am disapointed in a couple of ways. One thing that is all the rage in Recip saws is a modified stroke to cut wood faster. Instead of only go back and forth in a linear...

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author geek4670 - Why a belt sander?

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author geek4670 - What does a planer do and what won’t it do?

Education:

The primary purpose of a planer it to reduce thickness of stock. So if I have 1 inch stock and the plan calls for ¾ stock then the planer is the tool to do it for me. Also...

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author geek4670 - First we will start with a little education.

What makes a good drill press? And what are they for?

A drill press is for drilling accurate holes as the primary task but it can also be used for other things like drum sanding and...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author geek4670 - About 6 years ago the spouse and I went to a local winery for a tasting class with Riedel crystal as the sponsor. Since then I will drink wine from nothing but!

there are a muriad of choices in Brad nailers and the reason I went with this model was price/versatility. And...

The standard in Routers

Thu, 24 Oct 2002 00:15:22 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author geek4670 - Look there is alot of hype nowdays about routers and features like variable speed and such. Plunge versus fixed and all kinds of stuff. I have been using routers forever and there is one thing that remains the same. The motor turns round and round and...

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author geek4670 - I bought this Bandsaw and promptly took it back! Here is the entire story.

Assembly is a piece of cake and the motor assembly is as easy as pie and the dust collection port is in a great spot. It actually works. It is on the back of the...

Good Saw

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author geek4670 - I originally bought the 36-600 and when I put it together was not satisfied it would meet my needs. The table was only 22 inches deep and the throat plate was not the standard delta plate. It only had two screws and could not be leveled without mods...
