Re: Video Sneak-Peek of New Groundbreaking Video Workshop Series

Are you guys suggesting that hand planing melamine isn't actual woodworking? I guess I'll have to hang up my shop apron. :-(

Re: UPDATE: Fine Woodworking Best Workbenches from the editors of Fine Woodworking and a special magazine issue, Workbenches.

The books look neat. I'm looking forward to reading them and adding to the list of ideas I need to incorporate on my upcoming Clockwork Bench.

Re: IWF Alert: Porter-Cable jig makes pocket screws faster and easier

Asa,
Looks like a winner except for the one killer feature of the K3 jig. Does it have dust collection?

Re: Woodcraft signs on to sponsor Tommy MacDonald's WGBH woodworking show

I can't wait for the show air. I enjoy Tommy's videos tons and being able to DVR them would be a blessing in my less than totally connected house.

Re: BOOK GIVEAWAY: 500 Tables (Updated with winner)

Mmm . . . The smell of a Bosch. Puts me in the mood for Beck's and brautworst.

Please excuse that I was not able to spellcheck brautworst.

Re: Cool Accessory for Festool Dust Extractors

Do the Festool hoses fit the dust deputy? The hoses in the photo don't seem to be Festool.

Re: Hand v. Power Tool Showdown: Watch it Live Online Nov. 12

Will the competition include the time to hook the sander up to a vacuum and install sandpaper and the time to sharpen a plane blade and set up a plane? If not, isn't it an unfair competition? Sanders set up in seconds and planes in minutes. That should be factored into the contest.

Re: Benchtop Tablesaws: We Want Your Feedback

I have a Bosch 4000 with the gravity rise table. I have loved it for about 5 years. It's the only benchtop saw I would consider as it has performed equal to any contractor's saw I have used and the fence is great. I would also recommend Forrest blades, as they'll make almost any saw sing.
