    Posted on September 15, 2019September 15, 2019by Brent

    When I decided to get into woodworking, I had the unbelievable opportunity to add this beautiful old Craftsman contractor saw to my arsenal. This thing is an absolute gem that dates back to the 1960s or even the 50s. But, there’s no dust collection built in and it makes a heck of a mess. So […]

    How to Build a Dining Table From Scratch – Part 2: The Frame

    Posted on September 1, 2019September 4, 2019by Brent

    Posted on August 10, 2019September 1, 2019by Brent

    After getting my first table saw and becoming comfortable using it, I was excited to put it to use on something more substantial than the small projects I had been using it for.
