    FS: 6” jointer, Delta 37-195, DFW area (sold)

    New (to me anyway) jointer and I need some help

    I had been wanting to upgrade my jointer from the 6" machine I currently have. Was thinking about on the 12" combo units. But, I ran across this at a really good deal. I brought this home on Friday. It is an older 12" jointer. Quite a step up from the 6" jointer I had previously. First picture...

    Aquarium Stand

    Here are a couple of more detailed pictures. In the original post I should have also indicated that the trim is mahogany. I purchased the inlay part with the shell. I'm not quite ready for that yet.

    Aquarium Stand

    Here is a project that I finished up in mid December. It is made out of quited maple veneer over plywood. This was my first veneer project. I cut the veneer on the MM16. I built the vacuum press and bag based on the plans and parts from Joe Woodworker. Thanks for looking.

    New compressed air distribution

    I posted a thread in the flatwork project showcase area (http://familywoodworking.org/forums/showthread.php?t=5576) that shows an exhaust fan I built. Of course, after building it, I could not get it to the window so I had to move my compressor and re-structure my compressed air distribution...

    Lathe tool storage

    I'm trying to get my shop a little more organized rather than just piles of stuff everywhere. So I though I would tackle getting the lathe tools organized.

She wanted the paper storage shelf painted. The last time I painted anything, the exhaust fan that I use...

    Any advice for making plantation shutters?

    Greg, Here are some details for the tension/tilt rod attachment that I tried to describe in words. I should point out that I did use solid brass and not brass plated eye screws. Brass was much easier to bend. I also should have discussed the adjustment screw. When I built the prototype...
