    Components

    Alright, I'm sorry if this is the most basic thing there is to do with Sketchup, but I can't for the life of me figure out how to make something a component and then make it part of a new sketch, to eventually make up an entire piece of furniture. Can someone please explain this too me, before...

    Craftsman TS and new extension rails

    So, I have a Craftsman TS, has a nice heavy cast iron top on it, but when I got it, the thing was missing some parts and the legs for it didn't have an option to add casters to it, so I built a rolling cart for it. I'm thinking I want to build a new larger cabinet, that will hold the TS and a...

    TS blade for cutting plywood.

    I'm getting ready to build our new dining room table set, its the trestle table that was featured on the cover of the Woodsmith magazine (VOL.31/No. 181, couple months back) and the top is made of a single piece of 3/4" cherry plywood. I've never had good luck with the cross cuts on plywood...

    Just need some confirmation.

    Those of you that have Grizzly tools...you like them yes? I just returned from a trip to Vegas where the casino's were very friendly to me. I was there for 4 days. I came home with $22 dollars more than I went down with to spend. That doesn't sound like much I know, but my initial wad was of...

    Mortising attachment?

    Anyone have any experience using one of these? I'm curious how well they work and if they are easy enough to swap on/off of your drill press. I currently have a bench top drill press, with the expectation to get a floor unit down the road, but was thinking if they work ok, then the cost of one...

    Sick of waiting.

    Well, it's been my long standing belief that I was going to wait until I had a full sized, dedicated shop to fill it with tools. With that belief, I've told my wife we don't need to buy new furniture because soon enough we would be buying a house either w/ a shop, or I'd build one in a hurry so...
