  1. Gotta run. Going to an out-of-town funeral. Hope the hotel has wifi. ttyl.
  2. @TheWoodShepherd Wood Slicer! As wide as will fit.
  3. @MBWPodcast Fear does AMAZING things to our vocal range!
  4. Shop projects: pie safe, watch display hanger, & dog house (not for me).
  5. They don't like me tweeting on the hospital computers. What's up with that?

  16. @rwaters73 Homemade veneer, for one thing. You can take nicely figured stock & make your own thick veneers for a really nice look.
  17. @MBWPodcast You're right, though -- they really are the sweetest blades I've used. I'll pay the extra any day.
  18. @rwaters73 I'd like a dedicated resaw machine someday. The Craftsman's 1/2" blade & size limits just don't get it. Too much e ...
  19. @rwaters73 I'll bet you would've been glad to help them with it!
  20. @MBWPodcast Matt, 'bout that Wood Slicer - you can tell Highland that you got at least ONE new customer for them!
