Greg you can't get alt.binaries.pictures.woodworking?

I'll see about putting them up on imgur.

Astraweb.com solves that problem.

OK, Jeff, when are you coming over to help me organize my shop?

I would like to see the other end of the pipes to see how you make your coarse adjustments. Would that bee too much trouble?

I moved it to a separate page and annotated it. Removed older images and put new images in place. All 2x construction for cheap bench. I am leaving many chisel marks in it, so it's not worrying me. If it really goes to crap, I'll just plane it down and put a masonite top on it. But I don't see it being a problem. It's saving my real workbench, and giving my back a well needed rest for marking.

I did make the legs too high. My first set of dovetails came out awful, I finally figured that my arm is too high. So it should be an inch or 2 lower, so that when sawing my arm is level. I did not anticipate the saw height when I built it. I noticed my arm was level to the bench. Should have put a saw in my hand, it makes a difference.

OK, I will rant. I just use Google news reader. Yes newsgroups are old tech nology living in this modern age. Alt binaries is always a problem for me t oo. I have never found a good solution and usually just do a Google search and find some re-poster site thing where I can view them. What a hassle. Wi sh we could just post pics here. But please all use flicker or flucker or s ome facebook or some fricking normal thing with a link so we can just click and see.

Those are man-sized pipe clamps!
