Anyone have any fun projects going on these days? It’s quiet in here.

I managed to mount this filter to my ceiling without killing myself. So I have that going for me. Which is nice.

I’ve got a few others that I’ll post up, mostly shop organization type stuff. But I’m about to get started on a huge 8-foot, 20-drawer dresser. I’ll create a thread with that shortly

Looking forward to seeing it! That tractor/rocker looks awesome

Does anyone feel that the Oil and Gas industry is the most discriminatory industry of all? They won’t even look at resume without O&G experience! It does not make sense to me as I would rather teach someone the specifics of an industry if they were a good fit. And for an industry that has so many obstacles from Government, Environmental Organizations and so on, why they are adding more bad publicity to themselves is not a great approach.

Anyone here own a saw stop PCS or a Powermatic PM2000? Ive been setting aside money in my woodworking slush fund for a good cabinet saw to replace my contractor saw, and I’m intrigued by the SS’s hotdog sensing technology. Eager to hear opinions from anyone who owns one of the two saws.

Be dazzled by my lumpy, uninstalled raised beds. Still need to trench and fill them, but they stand under their own power!

So I’m space constrained right now & there aren’t any maker spaces around me so I’m going a little crazy not being able to work on any projects. Humor me and show me what you are working on!

Any projects being worked during break? Show and Tell!

Wanted to share some advice for anyone looking at track saws. I just bought the bare WEN 6.5” unit ($145.29) and paired it with the Powertec guide rail set ($119.89) and came away with a solid setup at a (comparatively) cheap price ($265).

I was considering the Makita ($585) or Dewalt ($790) setups since those are my normal go-to brands, but couldn’t stomach the cost.

Highly recommend it!

I can't wait for it to cool off so I can try my hand at making furniture. Too hot to work in my shop right now. Planning to make this out of wood.

I’m looking for recommendations for a bench top bandsaw. I’m willing to invest in a nicer one down the line, but right now I want to keep it under $300. I mostly see Powertec, Shop Fox, or Wen. There is a $375 Grizzly I’d consider if it’s way better than the others. Any thoughts?
