3M Sand Paper 150 gr.

3M Sand Paper 150 gr.

2 days ago by lumberjockey | 6 comments »

Hello there guys. This is my first review. After reading and learning from the reviews here, I felt that I should contribute something. Even though if it’s as trivial as sandpaper. I bought this sand paper from Lowes. I’ve always used the Norton brand sand papers and I couldn’t find any on the shelves at Lowes. And so I figured sand paper is sand paper. How much difference could there be. And also, it’s from 3M. And 3M is an good company with numerous excellent produc...

Lee Valley Veritas Quick Release Face Vise

Lee Valley Veritas Quick Release Face Vise

19 days ago by rdwile | 7 comments »

I recently replaced my bench’s front vise with the Lee Valley (Veritas) Quick Release Face Vise which according to my extensive reading is one of the best for this purpose. For me it was a very smooth installation as I could simply bolt it to the underside of the benchtop without much modification. The vise face was lined up on the template so it was flush with the top of my bench and I drilled the holes. The wooden jaw is bubinga with ebony shoulders to add some visual interest, I thin...

"variable" speed trigger

"variable" speed trigger

First of all, I’d like to explain that this is not the saw I have ordered from Home Depot Canada.A guy made a mistake somewhere and sent me this one instead of the 13 Amp 6536-21.After multiple calls, they offered to refund less than the difference but I had to use the saw anyway soI kept it. HD really s**ks in Canada. Last time I buy stuff from them. So I have received the 6519-22. The metal locks on the case are working very well.The case is just big enough for the saw, even the ma...

Pretty much what I was looking for.

Pretty much what I was looking for.

32 days ago by muleskinner | 6 comments »

I wanted to add a foot switch to a scroll saw I just bought. The pedal types seemed better suited to a sitting position (I was thinking sewing machine). I will be standing so I looked for a low profile that had the pivot at the top. I ordered this one ($16.84) and received it yesterday. It’s available in three configurations: switch w/6ft pigtail; switch w/6ft cord and piggyback 15amp/120v plug; switch alone. I ordered the last option because I wanted a little bit longer cord and ...

Caution When Ordering

Caution When Ordering

37 days ago by andy_P | 10 comments »

These are sold as a pair. From the description in the catalog one would think that there is a right and left stop. Actually both stops are identical and will only work on a table saw in the right hand position. This item was quite thoroughly covered under the forum topic of “Has Anyone Purchased The Flip Stop From MLCS”. They may or may not work for your application. MLCS was very good when several of us contacted them about the product. Although we all have our beliefs as ...

Stumpy Nubs Entertaining Review: Rockler Bench Cookies & Accessories P1

Stumpy Nubs Entertaining Review: Rockler Bench Cookies & Accessories P1

We are producing a new video series which takes the concept of tool reviews and adds a bit of “info-tainment”. No, this isn’t a song and dance kind of thing, it’s a serious tool review, done in a not so serious way. I love to watch tool reviews, but I rarely watch a review just for the sake of watching. I hope this new format changes all of that! You may already own the tools, you may not care about them. But the videos themselves are worth watching! Anywho- The fol...

NOTE: This is part TWO of this review. I couldn’t seem to post four videos on one review page. Please see part ONE here before viewing part two. The third video features the sawhorse clip attachments… And finally the finishing cone accessories… Now, in case you didn’t get it from the videos, here’s my written review of the Bench Cookies and Accessories: I love these little hockey pucks, and not just because they have the word “cookie” ...

The Woodwhiper Shop Apron.

40 days ago by Ken90712 | 18 comments »

The Woodwhisper Shop Apron; Over the years I have been trying a couple of different aprons while working in the shop. The one thing I didn’t like was the strap pulling on my neck. I wasn’t a big fan of the leather ones as they were just too stiff for me. I had a cheap one from Home depot that was only a cpl bucks, but it pulled on my neck too much.. So a cpl weeks ago Blondie was cleaning out my work clothes for the woodshop and mentioned about 10 of my T-shirts are trashed from all the wo...

I recently placed an order with Highland for two bandsaw blades. A 1/2” and a 3/4” woodslicer but had accidentally two 3/4” Woodslicers instead. About a day after the order was placed I received a call from HighLand about my order asking if I really wanted two blades the exact same or was it a mistake. I meant to order a 1/2” and the 3/4”, who calls to double check an order these days? Even if I had wanted two 3/4” blades the same it’s nice to know th...
