What’s the best way to get rid of moss on the driveway? I’ve seen a lot of different products, but figured I’d ask here first.

Thank you.  This is a follow-up from my last question.  I'd like to wipe it on with a pad.  Any and all recommendations are gratefully considered.  -Howard

My Jet DC is likely 15 yrs old.  The remote will not turn the DC off.  I tried to open the remote to check/clean the contacts, but stopped just short of breaking the back.  Anyone got a suggestion?

This offer for a Rocky trim router with fixed base and trim router lift looks interesting if the quality is any good.

Does anyone have any experience with this brand?

I am guessing that Rocky is a house brand for HValley.

Hello once again everyone I was able to put the final touches on my latest piece.
This segmented piece is made from Curupau and Sapele and it finished at 16" D x 7 1/2" T . After turning on the lathe there was some hand carving on the bowl section. Then I made the base from Sapele hand drawn and carved man in the moons. Everything was finished with Deft sanding sealer and then hand waxed with bees wax.

I posted earlier about braking down Ash boards. Well the reason I was doing that is because I am starting to build another work bench. And I wanted to show that braking down plywood or heavy timber the process is the same. It is just getting it into usable size. And I wanted to say I am very happy not to live in a place that has covenants.  In fact stay tuned.

My wife is having a garden club meeting at out house tonight and we had a big storm come through about a week ago and she wanted me to take sticks and branches it out to a friends burn pile and while I was there I decided to get some more Ash. It was cut a couple of years ago and it was at 10 % I unhooked my straps and removed 4 pieces and bundled it back up. This is the first wood I have gotten and I was surprised on how flat it stayed.

   

   

   

Anyway on the way back I stopped at the Little Brown Church and took a couple of pictures. I think it was finished in 1864  It is quite famous and even had A song written about it. The Little Brown Church in the Vale. It is an active church today. Lots of people from all over come there to get Married. Sue and I were married there 55 years ago this coming June 21st.  The couple visiting inside said they were Married there 47 years ago. Anyway I write this because it is where all the ash came from. The church lost 11 ash trees And all the ash pictured came from one tree.

   

   

I took it home and proceeded to cut it into usable sizes so I could get it on my table saw. one of the pictures show 3 knots and otherwise the boards are clear. I also showed the split at the other end. Each board is book matched to the one under it. I was one of the grunts when it was sawn. And we handled it that way.

   

   

   

And then I decided to test the waters and took the last board to my shop. So I cut the last board right in front of my shop, right down town on main street. There was a nice breeze so I didn't even sweep up the sawdust.

   

   

Did I get away with it? People waved as they drove by. Going to do all my brake down on Main Street from now on. The Little brown church is level, just poor photography.

I hope you enjoy how I spent part of my day.

I have a Shaper with A 5HP 3ph motor. I was thinking of using a VFD to control the speed. It's my understanding I will need one that will provide constant torque. Has anyone done this and/or have any thoughts on which VFD to use?

I’m thinking of putting a mini-split two handle cooling and heat for two areas of my home. My hvac guy is telling me to get Daikin, rather than Mitsubishi or LG. I don’t see a lot of reviews for Daikin. I’m curious what your thoughts are? Also, is there a formula for figuring out what size units I need?

By the way, does any manufacturer offer different color options for the wall units? My biggest hesitation for this is having a big unit hanging on the wall of a beautiful room. I’d like to find a way to get it to blend in as much as possible.
