Diggin' the shot of ya with all of em spread out. that coupled with the pattern in which you swept up, looks like a "CSM'ers Zen Garden," :laugh: i finished slabbing a big oak a couple weeks ago,pretty tough stuff. then just the other day i cut up a bunch of short tulip wood...

thanks Rob, i can use the 3/4 sheets i guess. just have more of the 1/2" and it's easier to cut. maybe ill use the 1/2" then for the smaller pieces to use it up... downside to all this is i hate cutting this stuff, i do it on bandsaw as its lot easier. but cant get it to reach outside the...

2 alternatives some woodturners use to PEG now are 1:concentrated dish/hand/laundry detergent. 2: denatured alcohol. actually i've heard some people mixed both... the soap is a little cheaper than PEG heres some links to info on these methods. i've done the alcohol soak and...

yes it says 3/8ths on the bar and saws manual for 'pitch',no reference to sprocket but i assume this is the same sorry i must've deleted that paragraph. it's a 36'' Alaskan. i was looking at a 25' reel from baileys of either the 30RP or 33RP woodsman pro ripping chain, i'd have to buy their...
