protecting a cable jacket (e.g. with a bigger jacket). But where can I get one?

what kind of shop do you mean by a shed? / How would I find one? My shed doesn't have it. And i'm not planning on knocking on evey door in the street asking them to give me mains cable or give me a price for it. So i'm guessing you refer to a type of shop.

suggestions for drawer sides

I am now - I'm building out my shop (finally) and decided to do all the drawers with dovetails. By the time the shop is done, I should be an expert at it, and I don't care that the "mistakes" are in the shop drawers. Bob

heating an 10x16 shop space.

A heat pump would work but depends on where the person who asked the question lives, and when he works in the shop. If he lives where winter temperature only get into the 20's a heat pump would work, especially if he works in the shop in the day and early evening.

Outlets High on the Wall

When I had my shop wired, I put in some high outlets on the wall and scatte red throughout the ceiling. Later I added two Rockler cord reels mounted on the ceiling. One is on the left half of the shop and the other on the rig ht side of the shop. Each is about 10 feet from ...

OT- Shopping in hard economic times just got harder

Had a heck of a time there when I'd bought a fairly expensive set of shop-vac attachments and found that half of them were missing. Unfortunately there's enough shameless criminals that shop there to make it a normal occurrance. I thought this was supposed to be an "upscale" ...

You're not going to believe this...but

There was a time when a dissatisfied customer would complain to the shop manager who is responsible for employing the right calibre and training their staff.

Dust Collection: Would this be enough?

I vote for the big one...400 hp sounds about right for a small shop. Plus, it has fire protection built in so grounding is unnecessary. However, 120,000 cfm may cause your shop walls and roof to implode, so some structural bracing will be in order.

<OT> steel stud for shop building

not all of it will be shop, but most of it will. this is a one man, personal shop. a bit more than a hobby shop, as woodworking is how I pay the bills, but as it's at my house, on residential land, it will be built as a garage. yeah, for my big RV... ;>)

HVLP vs. ?

It's the 10-14 wall-mounted system (in the shop). It's powered by compressed air and I think they go for ~$2,000 new. Not sure what "we" paid for it - my employer owns it. Do you take it to a job often, or do you finish in your shop? Finishing's done in the shop ...
