Not your typical finishing question |

I would try TSP first. Scrub it and rinse it and see if it comes clean.
If it is an oil soluble sticky stuff, then painting the surface with (don't laugh) mayonnaise will soften the gunk. Leave it on over night then wash with TSP. The mayo is about 90% oil. But unlike oil it won't run off the surface. I've used it to remove adhesive from a dashboard of a car, and to remove those "You shouldn't have parked here" stickers. Left on overnight the stickers will wipe off with a dry towel. Then some windex to remove the oily residue.

trailer wiring |

So far, it sounds like you did nothing wrong. Did the system work with the tow vehicle before you rewired? Modern cars have a little brain unit in the wiring to convert from separate turn and stop lights to the North American standard of combined lighting (I think European trailers have separate amber turn signals), which may be having a problem. If it exists. I would start by checking the health of the stop/turn pins on the vehicle, either with a voltmeter, or with one of those little trailer connection testers.
And do you know for sure that the brighter elements of the stop/turn/tail lights even work?

That bright blue color will also make it easier for people to find your house, as it is somewhat out of the ordinary. Much better than the neighborhoods where all the houses look alike!

Admiral is probably the most active tool seller here on Woodnet, followed by SteveF, enjuneer, and Gregory of Sherwood Forest - all highly respected. Our elder statesman, Timberwolf, has top-quality tools from time to time.
Also, Google Hyperkitten and get on his mailing list - he's a Woodnetter too.
I have tools that I've purchased from each of these members.
I'm sure that there are others, but are the ones that I recall quickly.

Powermatic 64B |

I bought my 64A with a 30" fence in 2006. Two weeks ago I went to the L. L. Johnson's Lumber Wood Expo in Charlotte Michigan and while there looked over the 64B for the first time. If I did not have my 64A, I would buy the B in a heartbeat. With the upgrades of the 1-3/4 H.P. side mount motor, riving knife and dust collection, this saw is hard to beat. I did a lot of research when I bought my saw and I have been very happy with the Powermatic.

I would make as many shelves adjustable as possible.
drill a hole in each shelf, so when the invariable spill happens you can sweep the contents to the hole and catch it below.
make it support twice as much as you think. Least around my place cabinet storage always gets packed with stuff.
