My favorite glue bottle is a ketchup dispenser. Inexpensive and you can cut the tip to customize glue distribution. If you always put the cap back on, it never clogs.
This saw performs well and the ergonomics are good. I appreciated the easily accessed controls and nice, ambidextrous handle. The Grizzly employs two lights, a laser to guide the cut and an LED to illuminate the cutting surface. The visibility is good, although the LED does not cast a shadow, it just lights up the cutting area. The miter range and number of detents are nice. However, the bevel range extends to only 45° on each side and has no positive stops. The saw requires a good deal of clearance from the wall, which, like similar models, may make it tricky for smaller shops.
The thick, felted bag on this Shop Fox is a plus and a minus. On one hand, it makes the unit much less expensive than collectors with canister filters, and also lighter and easier to hang on the wall. Without a separate plastic bag to catch chips, however, they stay in the felt bag, and the shortish zipper on the bottom makes it tough to shake them out. Otherwise, the W1826 is an excellent value.

With its graceful curves, cabriole legs, and ornamental back splat, a Queen Anne side chair is a bucket list build for many woodworkers. Dan Faia had a very specific Queen…

Very impressed.....Must be a very patient carbon based life-form. Would like to learn to do stave work myself. You should be quite proud.

This bucket was not intended to hold water. It makes a great decorative accent to be used as a magazine rack or to hold a potted plant.
