That looks real good, Bob, love the magnet idea. Damn, your a pro, nice shop! I am working on a dust collector for my new grinder today, right after this break I am going to go cut a hole in the back wall of the shop. I like to keep the dust collector motors outside in a small water tight shed...

Yes, I liked the sheath as well.

Great thread Paul, thanks for posting all of the photos.

I have been buying from OBM for many years and have received very good customer service *shrug*. I guess I should have kept that information to myself.

Beautiful.

I have been buying from OBM for many years, I remember when they were called "Oregon Blade Maker". I have received excellent service from them over the years. I have also purchased many parts from them to build my own machines and I now have one of their tilt grinders that my wife surprised me...

I use a push stick all of the time, this type (photo) works very well, plenty of control and keeps my hand away from the balde far enough to give me plenty of relaxation when making even a small rip. I also have a shop built table-saw sled that I like for cross-cuts that adds a nice bit of a...

I have to work in a clean shop, a cluttered or dirty shop causes me too much anxiety for me to enjoy my work. Anything but a clean shop to me is uncivilized!

That's a nice piece of work!

That may be a good idea, especially the cloth type of electrical tape that is just a little bit sticky.

Oh man, that looks nice!

My usual move is to get my finger stuck between the table and a 12" sander disk :( That hurts good too.

OH MAN, I LIKE THAT!
