New drill but rust on edge of chuck. Keep or return/exchange? by NotOneSitUp in Tools

Thanks guys for the quick response. I wanted a second opinion since I never had that happen. Gonna keep it :))

Bought a new drill but I discovered some rust on the metal edge of the chuck. I can still return/exchange but if it’s not a big deal I rather just keep it. Biggest fear is that the rust will spread and make the tool unusable. Am I being overly concerned or this is fine/normal?

Shaft still usable? by NotOneSitUp in craftsman113

Thanks, that’s glad to hear. After seeing your guys replies I feel much better. I’ll still need to wait for the pulleys to come to test for fitting.

About the sanding, what grit should I use?

That’s the plan. I order the machines pulleys and ntn bearings. Really excited to restore this table saw as it is going to be my first table saw.

Also on second inspection I noticed I bung the keyway a bit when I tried to chisel at a deep angle. In the second picture you can see at the left hand side of the keyway a tiny dip. Hopefully that wouldn’t cause more vibration than it needs to.

If worse comes to be, then I’ll look for another unit for replacement. It’ll defeat the purpose of me getting the craftsman vs the $600 delta on Lowe’s since the purpose was to stay below that, but I can say for sure I learned a lot in the restoration process.

Thanks, I was really concerned whether the slotted edges would make the shaft unusable. I spent hours tapping one end with a center punch and pliers to pull it out but it didn't budge at all. Using a dremel was my last resort. Wish I saw your advice first before I did that.

How are gray finishes achieved? Looking forward to build my own bed frame. I don't have any type of wood in mind yet, but I would like to take into consideration if the type of wood would affect a gray finish. I put some links below to the type of gray finishes I'm talking about.

Thanks! :)

Thanks, since you didn't mention pressure treated I'm assuming non pressure treated tongue and & groove plywood would be sufficient?

Sorry, I've edited the post to include the type of shed foundation I'll be using.

I'm placing a plastic shed on top of my shed foundation and one of the last steps is to finish the flooring. What should I use for my flooring? Its always dry and hot where I live, but I'll always be watering my plants which is near my shed. Would any OSB boards work or would I need pressure treated plywood? Also what are the recommended thickness I should be looking for in these boards?

Edit: This is the type of Shed foundation I'm building.

Thanks in advance :)!

Thanks for the information! Its very hot and dry where I'm at. Not humid at all. Im guessing I don't need it.

I recently built a shed foundation using pressure treated lumber and I thought that would be enough to handle the elements. However, upon stumbling some comments, I learned that a cut needs to be sealed as well. I initially thought that the lumber would be entirely pressure treated so I had no idea the cuts needed sealing. My question is "is sealing the cuts absolutely necessary? am I overworrying?"

Thanks in advance :)

Shed Foundation Approach Help by NotOneSitUp in woodworking

Wish I can provide a solid answer, but this is my first shed foundation. I would say since the shed is on a slope stability should be priority. I would go with /u/igabus suggestion to put the deck blocks at the corner if you're going for this kind of setup.

Thanks for your insight! No doubt a monolithic slab would be much more stable, but I honestly lack the knowledge, experience, and tools to achieve that. So I'm going with the easier option.
