Now Casting: 'The Handmade Project'

I suppose they'd want you to follow their recommendation s, guidelines, etc., but I'd be inclined to, somewhat, want to follow my ow n shop routine(s) and ad lib, a bit.... it's what I do in my shop and 'most everywhere, else. Be oneself.

Sharing a well

I'm purchasing a home with a well that use to be 4 acres with a home and a shop. I'm getting 2 acres along with the well. The purchaser of the other 2 acres wants to pay 25 a month to use my well for the shop area. I don't know what the other owner plans to do with the shop.

Buy Good Old Equipment rather than new cheap.

I took woodworking one year, metal shop another, and print shop another. Remember heating soldering irons in an oven? Or setting type by hand? And the only power tools in wood shop were a bandsaw, a drill press, and a big sander (which claimed the tip of one of my thumbs).

Metal Building vs. Framed Workshop

After working in a post and beam wooden shop for years, I've decided my next shop will be a metal on slab. I have to be extremely careful about sparks in my wooden shop, so sharpening/grinding/welding/oxy-cutting, etc all have to happen outside. Good luck. Scott

Das Bench - The Journey Nears Its End

No, trying to get my shop back. :-( Lost the water heater and SWMBO took the opportunity to upgrade the utility room. New paint on the walls, laid new linoleum last night and new baseboard this morning. The washer is out of the shop, back working in the utility room.

What's up with Porter-Cable?

Now you tell me......I just got a P-C 7550 compressor and just finished plumbing it into my shop and now I have to plumb the rest of the shop (everything from the compressor to the shop is galv. and everything inside is copper).

WiFi signal shape - where to place router

We have a house and attached shop, with separate utilities, and I cannot use a home plug in the shop, via the house ring main, and cannot pick up a wireless transmission in the shop, from the house.
