Woodworking

I don't recall seeing anything on here about the hobby. Do you do it? Have any interest? Tools? Have you made anything? Do you want to learn?

With the recent developments on the Planet, it got me thinking, what can I do to contribute and support the new effort?

I had no problem with any of the old guard and want to support the effort to make Chiefs Planet great again with the regime.


They aren't teaching vocational training in high school anymore, but maybe we can provide a venue here to learn woodworking?

There is a handyman mega thread, but this deserves it's own thread if we are going to accomplish something.

When I went to Junior high school we had woodworking class and I have always loved it. Finally, upon retirement, I have been able to set up a nice woodwork shop. I can go from station to station and perform the particular task, planing, jointer, sander, router table, radial arm, table and band saw.

I am currently on my fifth cedar chest this winter. Each one has gotten much easier as I have learned.

We have a cedar mill about ten miles away so it has been very instrumental in the effort as raw material is the main ingredient. It is dirt cheap at the mill and I have been buying 1.1 inch thick by 52 long by 4.25 wide boards and gluing them together.

What are you working on?

TC. To Cool. Beautiful work. I am jealous. I am looking at buying a new table saw. My B*tch made in 1923 almost cut off my thumb last year. No safety features what so ever.

I need to post some pics of the stuff I have done around the house over the years. Mostly walls and stair stuff.

I have a ton of "Furniture Making" books that I bought 30 yrs ago and found I had no time/space/tools to do any of it. So I put them off for "retirement" like in the OP. Then the internet came around I had a pseudo Uncle that made INCREDIBLE furniture, candle sticks, carved animals etc. Some Day.

I need a bigger shop Or convert a stall out in the barn,,,

Sounds like you found what you needed but I was also going to suggest Michaels and Hobby Lobby.

Thanks, I look forward to seeing some of your work.

I don't have any of the guards on my saws, they are cumbersome. Just have to being playing close attention.

By the way, I was trying to hit the thumbs up arrow and missed. It won't let me correct it.

Bought a cheapo craftsman table saw. Trying to cut 45 degree cuts and just can't get it to cut straight. Making cigar boxes for Christmas.

Miter saw or box may have been better for that.

Yeah I've used it to rip and do my Dado cuts just fine. May actually rent a radial arm saw for the 45s.

I used to have tons of great woodworking tools. Now my garage is tiny and my neighbors not cool with it. Was wondering what a great idea it would be for someone to open up a warehouse with all the tools for a rental fee...

Get a Sawstop. They are expensive but a thumb is more.

I have nicked each thumb the last 15 years. I am not ****ing around anymore. If you really need a decent table saw that stores small get a dewalt 745. Christmas sales at Home Depot usually prices them from 225-275. That's a steal.

I am with you on that. That is why I was looking at new table saw.

Found this. I am not a Contractor but value a decent table saw and quality. This scored well.

Best Budget Table Saw Under $300
SKIL 3410-02 120-VOLT 10-INCH TABLE SAW WITH FOLDING STAND

Looks like a Christmas present. It should not be a problem with the family. No more ER visits with a thumb almost lopped off.

BTW, my radial arm saw is my favorite. My Dad had one and the versatility is amazing. I bought it at the White Cloud,KS flea market for $35, 20 years ago.

Q. Are radial arm saws obsolete, especially when you take into account the latest compound miter saws out there on the market? And are they safe?

A. (Rob Johnstone) "Radial arm saws are great and a very useful power tool. With the increasing popularity of power miter boxes and their slide-arm cousins, I can understand how the question could be asked, but my answer is they are in no way obsolete. The main reason they remain a great option for woodworkers is their versatility.
R.J. DeCristoforo used the radial arm saw for so many operations it would simply amaze you. He routed, sanded and did horizontal boring in addition to actually cutting wood with it. In fact he used it so often, I wonder if he could do woodworking at all without one. Paul Eckhoff of Ridgid Tools made the versatility point quite strongly when I posed the question to him. Ridgid introduced a brand new radial arm saw this year and I asked him point blank why they did it. Paul offered the opinion that radial arm saws offer a woodworker more options than a table saw. So if you think of radial arm saws as a power miter box on steroids, you might feel that their days have passed. But if you understand their remarkable versatility, you just might wonder what you are doing without one".

This is my "go to" saw. Lots of questions...space, contractor, heavy duty, jobs needed, ease. Quick cut, throw on the board, flip a switch...cross cut done.

The is a bazillion tools a "shop" should have. I my mind, this is one of them.

Radial arms are legit, but a good sliding compound miter will do the same job, and it has more flexibility for plunging cuts.

So let's continue. When I looked at the radial arm saw vs table saw I was thinking about ripping. I see some of them now have sliding guides to make them more versatile. Guess you can rip on that.

Which one to get $300 or so?
