I'm in shop furniture mode right now. So I made this for my shopvac and seperator. Super cheap and easy. I also created the pipe clamp on the right for my work bench.

Looks like Woodcraft is running a 10% off sale this week on Jet tools. I think I’m going to sell my delta one and buy their cyclonic separator.

Laguna wants a bunch of money for shipping. And I will move mountains to find a way to avoid paying tax and/or shipping...

I cut 100 stamp blocks for a neighbor who has an etsy store. Against my preferences, she wanted white wood. Couldn't even talk her up to pine. Sanded these within an inch of their lives to make them look presentable. 900 more to go...

I love general finishes arm-r-seal poly. It’s a wipe-on, so it if super thinned down and self-levels.

I’ve never had to finish 400 blocks like you are tackling; I’d be tempted to spray poly onto them.

As far as drying, I have no experience here, but I would probably over-engineer a solution as follows: drive ~100 brad nails halfway through a section of plywood, creating a bed of raised, exposed nail heads. I would dry the stamp blocks [future] stamp-side down on these nails, thus minimizing the surface area of finished stamp blocks that are in contact with a non-finished surface. And since it’s stamp-side down, any nail head marks will be hidden when the stamp is affixed.

Any tips on setting up a garage shop? My roommate is moving out, so I'll have half a garage to set up. Thinking about installing a dust curtain. What would you recommend for a starter shop re: outlets, dust collection, etc.?

It's a little crooked, but it's standing! My first project.

Not that I’ve worn ties much in the last year, but I made this to get a bit more organized. The pegs are actually bolts for door hinges that I cut down. $1.25 for a 4 pack kept this whole thing under $10

Sat down tonight and forced myself to learn Sketchup in order to design some cabinets for a bathroom remodel.... it’s literally a game changer. It will even orient your grain pattern and spit out an optimized plywood cut diagram. Really cool.

PSA: Jet and Powermatic are having supply chain issues. Ordered a jet dust collector in March with an April delivery date. Woodcraft has pushed it back every month and their current best estimate is July 7th (though they are still advertising a June ship date). Just keep that in mind if you have any sense of immediacy around your purchasing needs.
