    New Laundry Room - In Progress

    A small update Today, I started to cut my strips of wood to length on my miter saw but I realized that my saw's gap was too wide and did not provide enough support to cut the thin strips of wood. As you can see, when I bring down the blade the wood has a tendency to lift. An accident waiting...

    Bet your gonna laugh...

    I was sanding a piece of MDF for a project I'm working on and I wanted to use the bigger drums on my oscillating sander to get more material off quicker. As I started sanding I noticed that the sanding pads moved up the drum and wouldn't stay on and I didn't have any washer big enough so I had...

    Wardrobe shelves

    Greeting y'all I'm planning to make some shelves in my son's wardrobe using 97"x12"x5/8" melamine and my SCMS. My question is does anyone have experience cutting dadoes in this stuff using only a thin kerf 100t blade on an SCMS? What was the process used? What was the end result? Would you do...

    This is the key hanger I made when we moved into our new home over a year ago. Sorry about the poor quality picture I only have a webcam. Maybe with a little tweaking I'll get something better.
