Nice Shop in Wood Magazine
Good press for Shopsmith in the “SHOW US YOUR SHOP!” section of the July edition of WOOD magazine. Very nice small shop, glad I didn’t have to frame the roof.

Re: Table Saw Cutting Funny
It might be interesting to see the boards in the first picture paired back as they were when you ripped them. They look like you moved them around,flipping faces or swapping ends looking for best fit and grain patterns (certainly nothing wrong with that) but I would say some of those would not even ...

Re: Jigs and Fixtures
For a sacrificial miter gauge fence, I once laminated two pieces of 12 mm BB plywood, and vertically offset the fixturing slots on each side. An alternative, If you don't have the vertical space to offset them sufficiently, is to just laminate up a thicker piece. Thanks for the info. How much separ...

Re: Jigs and Fixtures
Those spacers are a neat idea, Larry -- I'm going to remember that one. I can't tell from the pix, but are you using WoodAnchor sliding nuts along with those clamp knobs to mount the fence to the aluminum angle? Be gentle with them if so -- the brass threaded inserts aren't designed to be pulled fr...

Re: Jigs and Fixtures
A couple more fixes for my crosscut sled. I made some plywood spacers to use with my stop collars so I can easily adjust my main and auxiliary tables for depth of cut for 1/2”, 3/4” or 1-1/2” stock. In this picture I’m set up for 1/2”. The piece of foam is to cover the blade while not in use IMG_101...
