Slick | Being that I was in the Tool & Die field and enjoyed working with my hands, I started doing woodworking. I was able to setup a small shop in my outbuilding to have something to do in retirement. My first project turned out OK in my book, as I know where the flaws are. Started another table over this past winter that is still a work in progress. It is made out of Cherry, as I have plenty of it from my Father-in-laws property.

Slick | Thanks Alley Cat. That's what happens when one doesn't post in a LONG time. Also the Tung oil finish is on the completed project. The in progress is just Cherry wood with no finish yet. |
ed monahan | Looks really good. Welcome back. |
padroo | Nice shop too. I am envious. My problem is I do so many different things, one shop would not work, I am not a woodworker, but I did build this house.

Padroo, It is a small shop, but rather well equipped with things on mobile bases. Just out of sight is my Grandfathers Craftsman Band Saw. It is indeed older than me. Physically building your own house, that is a fantastic accomplishment. Ed and Stumpy, thanks for the compliments. |
Stray Cat | Thats a beautiful piece, nice job and a fun hobby! John |
Landscape Doctor | Very nice. Woodworking is a art only very few can master. Great hobby. |
Slick | I made a promise to my wife that I would work safely, so I bought a Sawstop Table saw. Check out this video of how it works, Thanks John and Landscape Doctor. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cTUOhYcw4ZY This message has been edited by Slick on 05-05-2024 at 08:04 AM |

Thanks Larry! Doing well. For those that haven't watched the video about the Table Saw that I purchased, you will see the gentleman that invented it put his finger directly into the saw to prove that it works. |
Landscape Doctor | I did see it. Never seen it before. Quite amazing. quote: Originally posted by Slick: Thanks Larry!

garysss | I have seen it before, it has been out a few years, amazing how it works. It still had to be hard putting your finger in there the first time and most likely every time afterwards. |
