Thanks for the suggestions everyone!

Kova, Gracias por las muestras. A mi parece que son muy functionable.

Now a router table…... ;)

I was thinking some household furniture would be cool.

I see slamming projects for this one. Keep us posted.

That made me laugh, Emma.

Grats on the score, Mark!

The ideas are starting to come to me. I need a Freud 10 inch ripping blade and a Freud 12 inch crosscut blade befor I get started. Up to this point I have only worked with softer woods. Why does it have to be Freud? I already have a bunch of low rent tools. I promised myself I would upgrade when I started to replace. Now I get to put up or shut up.

Looks like a router table begging to be made. Put a mast on it for style points; looks like a ship’s belly:)

Fine! If it’s a router table, I need a big router. This might do the trick. ;)

I broke down and bought some blades today. I didn’t get all Freud”ian” with it and I may kick myself later but I did get a ten inch Irwin ripper blade for the table saw. I bought a small ripping blade for my circular saw. I don’t have much confidence in it but they didn’t have anything better. I got an Italian made, thin Kerf, 12 inch, cross cut Dewalt for my big miter saw. I was thinking I might have done better with a diablo and I may yet get one. A full boar Freud would cost me double. For that price, I’d have to be a lot more than an occasional carpenter.

Apparently – When it comes to putting up or shutting up – I shut up. :)

Hey – It just occurred to me. I did eventually by a Freud ripping blade. It has not complained once. The Irwin blade went dull within 1/2 hour.
