As the subject says.
Can the latest be moved in there too?

New Shop Press

I have wanted to upgrade my old shop press which was bed frame angle that I welded up. I picked up a Soloflex weight bench, and am cutting it up, and measuring it out. The nice thing about it is the sides have nice rub strips that have been ground flat/parallel. I am hoping that the single...

Hi Jeff, how many project threads have you posted?

 

[woodchucker]

I don't know, I'll get back to you on that. They are all over the place in different forums wood working, what did you do today had some projects, that I think would be difficult to nail down.

Steady Rest

This started without plans. Then I realized I better get some set up. I can't just wing it like others. I had an idea in my head to use this chunk of Aluminum, after cutting it, is when I realized that I need some idea of sizes of things.. Probably it would have been better to start that way. I...

Sideboard Completed

Finally finished this and delivered it in time for easter. That middle drawer is out a little, making it look lower than the right drawer.. I didn't notice when I took it that they were not all closed. Also these are bookmatched panels, and when you look at the middle one from the opposite...

Tool less quill lock on Clausing 8520

Got tired of taking out the wrench to lock the quill when I went from drill to mill. Or if I lowered the quill for light milling. I should have made the handle 2 " longer for more leverage. So made this quill lock. http://imgur.com/a/njDkM

This is a quill lock like a BP

Clausing 8520, 8530 New Quill lock like a BP

I kept calling this a brake in the POTD.. sorry. brain fart. I wanted a tool less lock. It originally came with a hex cap bolt. I created a new one with a tool less design, but it required an enormous amount of torque to pull the casting tight. A horrible desing. I always noticed in Utube videos...

What Did You Buy Today?

Then you did the right thing.... Sometimes it's best to let things go, a new jack is cheap compared to the heartache of working for a bad boss. So many companies don't bother to train their people (especially managers). Managing people is a learned skill, and one that comes with a lot of...

Just found it.. I put it in the what did you make today. Piece meal.. nope didn't find it, only one post. Can't find it, and I know I put it out here somewhere.

Bosch Miter Saw modifications

I recently bought a Bosch Glyde CM10GD saw and I need to modify it to improve dust collection, and I tried my old laser that is blade mounted, and as always it sucks. Paid too much for too little. While searching for dust collection upgrades I came across the addition of the shadow line on the...
