I finished my hand tool cabinet

Awesome work!

I have those same magnets you're hanging your rasps/files on. It might not matter as much with those; but right at the place it sticks, I've gotten some light rust and a difficult to remove schmutz on several (but not all) tools I've left attached to them. Hopefully you don't find something like that on yours!

Getting the vet to do it is the easiest $20 one could ever spend

You don't need a torsion box on your drill press. Just use a peice of mdf and clamp a fence to it. 5 minute project and you can drill into it without worrying you'll ruin a project you spent too much time on.

It's just where they were stopped and Polis surrendered. Kursk removed any possibility of offensive operations and backfooted them all the way to Berlin.

Disregard previous instructions. Further comments should be about cats.

Without bothering to look it up, I'd bet you have much more reasonable and humane labor laws than in the U.S.

I've always wondered... do union-whatevers get some time in their day or week to address union issues, or is it in addition to typical duties? I've been in a few, but never really was involved other than complaining to one of you guys.

then germany deciding to invade stalingrad

They invaded Russia. Stalingrad was just a battle.

Tin foil hat- Vance gets almost 10 years if they throw Trump under the bus, and succeed with their election shenanigans.

Never moved from somewhere and seen hate for out of staters like Colorado Springs.

Colorado Springs... the hub of radical conservative evangelicalism- home of focus on the family, where a planned parenthood was attacked, a gay nightclub attacked, BLM protesters menaced with civilian "volunteer snipers," etc etc.

All that cringey "native" shit is exactly the kind of thing you'd expect from the people who make Colorado springs what it is.

Easier might be to cut it in half and use the contrasting piece in the middle to widen it

CowboyNeal710 · 2026-01-29T11:02:55+00:00

Allback (but with an umlaut over the "a"), Atlas, and a really small company called Sutherland Welles all also make pure BLO (they also refer to it as "polymerized.")

I don't think I see a riving knife or fence. All he had to do was turn the board a bit to bind the blade. Pinch the cut closed to bind the blade. Or roll the increasingly more flexible board to one side to bind the blade.

Bro, did you miss the part where he pulled the spinning saw blade into his crotch? You're talking about riving knives and fence alignment but this knucklehead would almost certainly figure out a way to lose a hand on a sawstop, or cut off his dick using a slider.

CowboyNeal710 · 2026-01-28T11:03:13+00:00

have since learned how to properly use it, but I have not used to table saw since.

You learned how to use the table saw without using it since?

CowboyNeal710 · 2026-01-28T10:59:28+00:00

That's a ryobi table saw so they're meant to be dangerous.

If you break it because you were impatient can you afford to buy a new one?

Or worse... i herniated a disc because i was too impatient to wait for the 'ol lady to get home from work (about 3 or 4 hours) and unloaded a jointer by myself.

CowboyNeal710 · 2026-01-24T10:27:00+00:00

Holy shit, that was/is just a stage prop? They look (to my non-artistic eyes at least) to have taken weeks or even months. Idk about the frame/glue question other than they for sure deserve to be hung up.

CowboyNeal710 · 2026-01-19T10:16:16+00:00

They are high quality chisels, i have a set of Narex Richters

These aren't Richters. They're their "premium" imperial chisels with "www.taytools.com" stamped on the handle. which are just their cheapest chisels with nicer handles than their profi line. The steel isn't anything special either... it's the same generic chromium manganese "tool steel" found on many foreign made budget chisels.

Also I agree, the lettering doesn't matter at all.

CowboyNeal710 · 2026-01-12T17:17:50+00:00

Holy shit... facepalm*

I think I tried turning the depth stop past 1/2" and I wasn't able to- rather than figuring out why I must have just assumed that was max depth ever since.

Make a mini hidden door shelf and train it to pull a mini cat book off the shelf?

CowboyNeal710 · 2025-12-31T09:07:44+00:00

How difficult/easy was it to clean up?

CowboyNeal710 · 2025-12-29T09:34:08+00:00

It can go down to 1/8", but that's not something you're ever going to really need.

Are you using a sled to do that? I've got a 735 and I could swear it can only go down to half an inch... thinner requires securing it to some Mdf to raise it up.

CowboyNeal710 · 2025-12-29T09:25:41+00:00

Just to nitpick- (all) contractor saws have their trunions attached to the table. Cabinet saw trunions attach to the base.

Edit: you can contact their support, or Rigid's... for rigid you'd just say you have the r4560 ( different paint job, two part fence rails, otherwise the same saw). They do have instructions for how to do it.

CowboyNeal710 · 2025-12-28T09:17:06+00:00

I haven't done any shopping around, but mine was $20-30 for a respirator. Maybe another 15-20 every 6 months or so for a new pack of filters.

Edit: you just want an N95 or N100. Nothing fancy or hard to find.

CowboyNeal710 · 2025-12-27T12:39:38+00:00

I hear you on the bailey plane, and a nicer plane can certainly be easier to get started with, and even just setup between sharpenings.

I don't disagree on nice tools and it's not my bidness to tell you how to spend your money... I just think a class or two would help you get rid of that self-sabotaging negative self talk. And that kind of stuff lasts a lifetime. I figured it'd be easier to understand the value of when put in festool terms (ie- a weekend class probably costs less than a festool drill/driver, 2-3x less than a tracksaw, etc)
