Tool Storage |

I helped a friend load a PODS unit with his tools for a move from Tyler to Fredericksburg. Although not cheap, he liked it because he could load/unload at his leisure. We did not attempt to tie stuff down - we did try to balance the load and keep the heavier stuff low on the floor. We also tried to either block in vertical pieces or lay them down on the floor to avoid a top-heavy or tipsy load.
It's also possible the folks at POS may have some advice.
Hope this helps.

Something is stirring up the dust in your shop when you're not there. Forced air heat? Leaky garage door? Pets running around?
For comparison:
In my basement shop the forced-air HVAC ducts are in the ceiling. Even when the shop is unoccupied, air movement keeps the DYLOS at 200-300 (large particles).
If I enter the shop and simply walk around busying myself with non-woodworking tasks, the particle count rises to the 1000's if the floor was recently vacuumed and into the 2000's if it hasn't been.
I only see the large particle count go above 3000 when operating machinery.

QSWO finishing question |

Nice wood! I'd use this technique to really accentuate the grain and then topcoat with a coat of shellac to protect the lower layer. Maybe orange but likely thai seed. But test and see what you like. Omit the seperate dye and gel stain and save some effort.

Has anyone used Wolf, Oracle or Kith for their kitchen cabinets and if so what are your opinions? Google doesn't provide much info on Oracle. They are in Montgomery Al. Appears to be same address as a Jim bishop cabinets. Kith is in Haleyville Al. I looked at their site. Wolf look like nice reasonably priced cabinets. The problem is our gov is a obumer clone to the nth degree. I seriously figure the company must have kept him away from the business. It sort of rubs me wrong to buy his companies cabinets..just on principal. I do need to buy from someone any other recommendations?

There are 35-50 tables inside and, with the foot of snow expected, probably no one tailgating outside. But I could be wrong. It's a M-WTCA meet and it opens at 7 I think. I won't be there since I'd have a 2 1/2 hour drive in the snow before dawn to get there. Not this time. But I imagine most of the dealers at the inside tables will be there, since most of them come in the day before. It's definitely a good sale.
