I make small toys and such. I use modpog for the color items. My question is the finish to use over water based stains, dye's etc. Is it lacquer or varnish, or other.
I hear about the problems people are having with planers? I have a Ry bio, that I have had for about 7 years and I don't have the problems with snipe or other problems. Is there something wrong with the planer or am I doing things wrong, I don't have a problem with it so I will never be able to fix it.
I'm making tools now and needed a good band saw to cut and re-saw. I had one I bought that was awful and sent to it back to the store, I won't say the name. I then looked at the Wen and bought one, the first one was damaged in shipment and sent it back. I received another one that is great, except the re-saw. I have a problem with blade drift when I use the fence! I can free hand just fine but when I use the fence it has a bad blade drift. I don't seem to get any information of how to set adjust the saw to prevent this. I love the saw and it's a great buy for the quality and 6" re-saw. thank you Ed

Thanks for an interesting presentation I know the . Sorry Jim got lost, but that's the way it goes sometimes. I know the echo is from hard shop walls but can something be done to tame it down a bit? GerryB, Oregon coast
From Pennsylvania... No questions at the moment, but more of a comment or two. For one, the audio was between 0.25 to 0.5 seconds behind the video.. More of a suggestion, George could really use a wireless mic... The echo when in the 'main shop' section, it rather annoying. The audio signal when in the smaller 'wing' shop, is much better. With such an operation, I think investing in a wireless microphone is a well worthwhile thing to look into... Love the live feeds and will look forward to more of them in the future. Thanks for all you do.
My first time watching. This was great! Lots of useful info. I'll definitely watch again. I was in one of your WWW classes back in May. I'm from Tennessee.
Thank you George!!
