Table Saw Neener Application

Good deal. You'll enjoy it.

something you need to see:

Now you just need a $100 Forrest blade and $150 Incra miter guage and you are almost there. ;^)

Great deal, c> I don't get much in the way of woodworking gloat opportunities around

Well, I had to take the saw back today.

When I went to unpack it last week, the table top was broken, almost perfectly 1/4 of the top was busted. All the way in to the insert, and about halfway down the side.

When I took the top off to assess other damage, the front trunnion was snapped clean in half, and the carriage assembly was completely collapsed down inside the cabinet.

There were no other saws in the region, and the nearest Ridgid service center is 2.5 hours away, with no weekend or evening hours.

All of the staff at the store were commiserating with me at the loss of such a good deal.

I'm hoping Ridgid comes out with their new saw quickly, as I don't live in a strong woodworking area, and Home Depot is the only store that carries decent equipment now that Lowes has stopped carrying Delta.

Otherwise, I'll be saving my pennies for a Grizzly 1023.

To clean finish out of my hvlp sprayer, I follow the instructions of "spraying the appropriate thinner" through the gun. What I didn't like is the cloud of "appropriate thinner" that this produced. After doing this for more times than I care to admit to, I came up with the idea of removing the air horns, then turning the turbine on just enough to pressurize the cup, shutting it off and *then* spraying the thinner through. With no atomizing air flow, there's no cloud of thinner, no muss, no fuss, just a thin stream of thinner from the tip that goes right back into the mason jar. Heck, with this method, I run the same thinner through a couple of times before one final rinse with fresh stuff and the gun is much cleaner as a result.

Again, probably obvious for long-time sprayers (Robert ;-) ), but it just dawned on me.

Spraying into a bunched up rag works pretty well.

Anybody who would point an airless at a rag in their hands deserves to go to the hospital, locked up and kept there.

It would be nice if you read what I said before posting something as stupid as what you just posted.

HVLP, since you and Robotoy don't know, means "High Volume - L O W P R E S S U R E"

And nobody, including me, suggested pointing anything into your hand.

I was agreeing with Roemax, so why are you poking your snotty little nose in?

No s*it, dickwad?

No s*it. Now you know.

How many of the "stupid pills" did you take?

...and what part of 3000psig airless did YOU not understand?

Salty do you hold the rag with your mouth most sane people would use there hand thus the hand warning post in the future take your hate elsewhere you are now officially killfiled I don't need to hear your s*it

Thanks for a good tip, I like it.

While I think it's pretty silly to spray the solvent into a rag as salty suggested (since it prevents re-using it as the OP described), it is *equally* silly to suggest as you did that an HVLP gun poses any significant risk of injury while doing so.
