I am in the market for an 8" parallelogram jointer and would love some recommendations. If money and space isn't an issue, I would love to hear what would be on everyone's wishlist, or your experience with some of these machines. I am heavily leaning towards Powermatic's PJ-822HH. Thoughts?

Well i fucked up. Made a beautiful knife, looked up what to put on it for finish and read boiled linseed oil. Come to find out thre are two kinds and i used the toxic stuff. i soaked layer after layer in? is the knife ruined? can i cover it with a food-safe varnish and seel in the crap?

Adjustable sliding canvas rest, 6’6”, x8 5” lag bolts and made from 2x3 fir.

She’s made for heavy duty art. Just got to add something to stop the back leg swinging out.

Are you glad you bought the tool? would you buy it again?

I have a project that i an building that i think could really benefit from the alignment that a festool domino could deliver.... before i drop the cash i thought i would ask...

It was still crated from the factory, with a date of 1988 mfg.. absolutely a beast and rock solid, only change need was feet to bring the table to a useable height for my 6’4” frame… and a new Diablo blade, radial arm saw for the win…

I lasercut a bunch of veneer pieces to be glued down in a plaid pattern but my assistant did a sloppy job gluing. Wondering how to fill in the gaps without needing to sand too much (also what type of filler?). Might be impossible but wanted to ask.

Hey guys I was wondering if you were to make a boat from wood what would be your woosld of choice? I've got the itch to do something I haven't done before and see if I'm able. From the research Ive done and videos I've seen. It's seems simple but I know it's not going to be but hey you can never get better if you don't push yourself. Thanks guys.

I recently finished building a set of built-in bookshelves for extra storage in what was formerly my office but is now the playroom. My wife wanted them painted to match the walls. Originally I didn't like the idea of this, but I must admit it looks great in the room now. The issue I have now have, and didn't even consider before, is that the paint in the room is an eggshell finish. I want to put a polyurethane coat on the shelving to help protect it as much as possible from the rough wear of the kids, but it seems that a clear water-based polyurethane coating with an eggshell finish does not exist.

Is my google-fu just failing me, or am I going to have to make a choice between matte/flat and satin and hope it doesn't stand out that much?

I want a new bag that can filter better than the one I inherited. Can you recommend a bag for this old collector. 3/4 hp motor, 12 in ring opening. My research is not getting results.

I bought this stand used in box and the leg is broken pretty badly, it is a kitchen helper stool for toddlers to stand in. I’m not a woodworker… is there anything simple I can do to make this work?

Don't have a lot of fancy tools, and haven't made many project so far, but it was an exciting and challenging build. Top and sides are made out of 2x4's, drawer fronts are pine as well. I do have a cheap HVLP gun so I wrapped it all up with polyurethane.

Lessons learned?

1. Make sure everyone thing is super square or the drawer slides turn into a 5+ hour nightmare.
2. Spraying polyurethane is a looooong adventure. I need different stuff.
3. Not sure trying to save money by using 2x4's is worth it haha.

I offered $250 for this looks like they go for around $750 new. It has overspray on it which I will get off I enjoy tinkering like that. But when I read the reviews they weren't that impressive. Who has it and what do you not like? Or like?

I cant figure out if I’m suppose to put lacquer on the tabletop and breadboard separately or if I can put it on after it’s attached 🤔🤷🏼‍♂️ I don’t want to seal the two together with a few coats of lacquer then in a few months from now there’s an ugly crack between the tabletop and breadboard.

What should I do?
