Well, a differential in air pressure can cause an implosion, such as dropping an incandescent or fluorescent bulb on the floor...

Only thing I don't like about the Unisaw is that the arbor tilts inward towards the fence. When you're cutting something like French cleats for wall cabinets, and it binds on the blade and shoots back75 feet and goes through a layer of sheet rock, you'll think twice about it. The Bosch miter...

LOL I'm going in the opposite (and apparently, net same) direction. I'm a cabinetmaker by trade, but I got into framing, roofing and siding, wallboard, wood flooring, finish trim, floor and wall tile, masonry, paving. Even worked as a plumber and electrician at one time. I was a foreman for a...

That's why law enforcement agencies use it to preserve fingerprints. It's original use was for surgery, why it welds skin so well.

I need that stuff Elvis used in Clam Bake...

Olive oil is also traditionally used in french polishing for the same reason, it helps the shellac move across the surface easier, and excess is "spirited off" afterwards..

I suppose yes, more of a sealer. A lot more durable than shellac, which would probably deteriorate under a sweaty hand. I believe Fender did however dip their necks in some sealer. I do feel a connection to SRV, being he died on my 18th birthday...

I finished a cue once with tung oil. Took a long time to build a finish that I could rub out, but it did look really nice, and I like the amber glow it has. I don't even remember what I did with that one... I've used a lot of finishes. I never used epoxy for a finish; rather I use it as a...

I've cut a lot of phenolic sheet, ranging from paper based, to cotton, and fiberglass. And the fiberglass stuff (G10/FR4) is absolutely horrendous. I must have cut thousands of intake manifold risers for import cars for a speed shop; a nice two year run of parts. The paper based stuff I use a...

Same thing... why let the few dissenters win by letting them stifle your words? They won't use your techniques regardless. But there are many others who would take the baton and carry it forward; more so than the few big mouths.

I wonder why you would even let a couple weinies deter you from sharing your knowledge to the detriment of the many others (including myself) that are willing to learn. That's like someone from the Mets quitting baseball because some Yankees fans boo him in the subway series....

I have one of those shafts, as a second shaft to my Frey cue...

Tell your client to buy an I-3.... done!

If you want to check out some really amazing guitars (acoustics), search Ray Kraut, who is located in Eugene, OR... An amazing craftsman and great guy to boot. Although still waiting for someone to take me up on my kidney offer to get one of his incredible guitars.

I do not like any of the hardware store super glues much. I get my gel CA at the local hobby store. You get a lot more for your money, and it lasts a bit longer too.

Just to note for those pursuing this idea, one should consider the type rail used. The THK HSR series for example is designed to be "self-adjusting" for slight differences in planar height between two sets of rails. There is the possibility of a light twisting moment causing the LM block to...

Could a 120 degree cutter be used to avoid the pitfalls using the 90 degree cutter in this instance? I'd bet that the fixturing for cutting the veneer miters and points would have to be made just for this particular butt....

Lambros cues hit amazing
