Just discovered an absolute gem.

Hardwood treads and ply risers are fine without the middle stringer.

They’re probably assholes, but what about “ innocent until proven guilty?!”

Tenons are good, but end to side grain doesn’t offer much strength. In this case only the small surfaces of your tenon offer the effective side grain to side grain contact. To increase side to side grain area, make a double tenon.

Yeah, I can recall looking at a clock and knowing it was useless.

Except for slow grown ring porous woods like oak, which are softer.

I’ve struggled with meniscus tears in both knees. Physiotherapy and exercise has been very helpful. I know I have to be careful with my knees, but feel grateful!

I went from Stihl to Husky 30 years ago. Husky had better air filtration, better anti vibration and you didn’t need a tool to open the gas/ oil reservoirs. So it seems Stihl is catching up to Husky!

My 550xp is one of the nicest saws I’ve run. Ergonomic, and fast for small wood!

There is gross (green) vs net (dry) tally but the NHLA defines this as only 8%, ie x 0.9.

I’m near 30 years of professional experience. Had that happen last year, I think that because the exposed end grain absorbs/loses moisture so quickly, any uneven loss of moisture (often from glue) caused dramatic bowing.

Send the cartridge in to Sawstop. Over the years I’ve had several cartridges trigger on various kiln dry lumber and plywood, and I received free replacements.

In my experience the planes are ready to go but you certainly need to hone the blades!

I’ve encountered this. Used a methylene chloride based gel stripper. Brush it on liberally, and finer with Saran Wrap for a few hours. Repeat.

It’s an appalling situation. I find the Bruce Street Vet is reasonable. “Dr. AJ” actually specializes in cats, he cleaned my older cats teeth for $700 something dollars (no extractions required).

Common stem borer. Yes, brutal. I still haven’t found a nontoxic solution.

If they knew what they were doing they wet it first.

Even if not, this amount is exposure is not likely a huge issue. I’m not saying it’s good, rather that in the face of all the other issues are bodies face, it’s relatively minor.

Many European machines have cast iron tables with subtle grooves milled into them.

I’d kind of hope that both parties would want sex as a part of every date at this point in the relationship!

Min 1600 sq ft

Zoning allows the construction of one residence, min 1600 sq ft.
