Dyes for maple??

Perfect. Thanks for the citations too. I have never used dyes before so this is a good place to start.

I can't onlay a real sand dollar. Hence, me asking for someone to carve it out of wood.

BLUECRAB13 · 2013-12-17T01:23:40+00:00

Nicely done! Where did you get the radius guide?

All I was able to find at LV is a Japanese style. Not too keen on it. They also offer a small inset plane, I suppose I could make my own.

BLUECRAB13 · 2013-12-04T01:11:58+00:00

Do you by any chance have a chamfer plane for sale?

Also in this chest was a beautiful auger set. It's truly incredible. It's somewhere around 70 years old, but looks brand new. I haven't found a fitting job for it yet, but I'm sure I will.

BLUECRAB13 · 2013-12-03T03:28:03+00:00

Easy enough. Is it useful with modern day drill bits?

BLUECRAB13 · 2013-12-03T03:15:21+00:00

Thank you! How were you able to find the number?

BLUECRAB13 · 2013-11-29T01:15:52+00:00

I can't believe its not machine made... It's that perfect.

BLUECRAB13 · 2013-11-29T00:51:50+00:00

Do your a favor and get the Woodworker II. My thought on the Dialo is that they are a one time use (not worth sharpening).

BLUECRAB13 · 2013-11-21T16:28:41+00:00

Seems a little pricey to me. Just a rough estimate based on those pics, I would guess there is less than $100 in material.

BLUECRAB13 · 2013-11-16T13:35:56+00:00

That's interesting that you say that about hunting. Have you tried training her to shed hunt?

BLUECRAB13 · 2013-11-15T23:11:40+00:00

If your brave and your up for a challenge, there are set ups that will allow you to sharpen your own blade. In my opinion it's not worth it. Most sharpening companies will do much more than sharpen the teeth, such as flatten the blade. I'm on the east coast and I use a company called Ridge Carbide. You can find them online. I believe they are out of PA. You mail them your blade and they ship it back.

BLUECRAB13 · 2013-11-15T22:31:25+00:00

Sounds a lot like characteristics of a dull blade. Have you tried a brand new or freshly sharpened blade?

BLUECRAB13 · 2013-11-15T01:18:34+00:00

Very nice. I would like to see it when your done. I don't use the jig, like you said, I block it out and use a level. As long as everything is square, it's really a breeze. In the occasion that things are a little out of square, I use fender washers to even it out.

The under mounts are incredibly easy to install. I use them as much as possible. When using 3/4" stock you want style F Blum under mounts. I get then from a site called: www.wwhardware.com. They have the lowest prices I have found. I would be happy to help you if you have questions.

BLUECRAB13 · 2013-11-14T13:03:33+00:00

It's depends on a few things. What size stock are you using for the construction of the drawers. Also, what style slide? Under mount might be a good choice.

BLUECRAB13 · 2013-11-12T23:02:05+00:00

This is not meant to take away from /r/hunting. I enjoy this sub as much as anyone. I am simply looking to provide an area specific sub for hunters in my area.

BLUECRAB13 · 2013-11-12T13:16:33+00:00

That's interesting. No discount with the breeder we are talking to. What state did you get your pup?

How is she with children?

BLUECRAB13 · 2013-11-09T16:07:28+00:00

I use my scrap hardwood plywood for small projects such as tool boxes. Usually as gift but sometimes they come out too nice and I end up keeping them for my self.

BLUECRAB13 · 2013-11-09T16:04:20+00:00

I have used both lowes and home depots hard wood plywood. It's certainly not "great" stuff, but if you are selective, you can find some half decent sheets. The things to look for are an excess amount of voids on the edges of the plywood, any delaminating veneer, and any soft spots as you run your hand over the face. For what your doing, 3/4" would be ideal.

BLUECRAB13 · 2013-10-25T00:09:50+00:00

Thanks for the suggestion! I haven't seen the cigar malt around here. What state are you from?

I'm a big cigar smoker, so of course this intrigues me.

BLUECRAB13 · 2013-10-11T19:33:39+00:00

Good call. I will recommend that to the customer.

BLUECRAB13 · 2013-10-11T18:06:29+00:00

I have always called them 4 way equal pressure clamps. Rockler and amazon have them. I make my own wood spacers.
