Speaking from the experience of carving dimensional signs for the past 20 years, first by hand and then with my ShopBot for the past 10 years, I agree 100% with Joe.

I've tried multiple times but can't get the link to the chart to work.
Is it the link or something wrong at my end?

A minor bug that I'm sure the Admin is in the process of correcting: The time stamp for my post says 4:09 pm and it was really 10:09 am. In the future I hope it will be corrected in case I need an...

Yes, and the search feature works great too!

All three of the Fein vacs are good for vacuum hold down and a single one has worked fine for me for over three years for almost all my hold down needs from less than a square foot to 32 square feet...

Thanks, Ted.

Admin, please find a way to bring back the old search method if possible.

The old "last day" search was so quick and easy that I visited the forum most days of the week for the past many years...

Congratulations on the fantastic project, Dave.

At your communityartmakers.com website I saw the photos and downloaded the temple.pdf detailed proposal you wrote for the project and am much...

I agree CMT's 60 degree bits are excellent and I have used them for dozens of projects ranging from HDU, plywood, juniper cedar, western red cedar, white and yellow pine, oak, walnut, and ipe.

Microsoft Office Word automatically imports all TrueType fonts that are on your computer and provides a preview of whatever text you enter.

Simply type your text, highlight it, click on "Format"...

Thanks for the kind words, Joe.

Most of my signs are at the plain and simple end of the spectrum with just a couple of contrasting colors, a simple graphic, and one or two easily read and...

"Aromatic cedar" or "eastern red cedar" isn't a true cedar, it is juniper and can be found in sizes ranging from bushes to very large trees.

There are at least two sawmills in Bastrop County,...

Ray's right: Keep it simple.

You have way too much info on one sign.

Make 2 signs, one for woodworking and another for concrete work since the two aren't generally considered to be...

Erminio is right. It's very simple and can be done on any of your other workshop motors that have both a 110 and a 220 volt rating on the motor, which is usually true of most capacitor start...

Ditto on what Butch just said since I too have the same setup and no problems so long as I run the dust collector on 220.

Since the brick wall will almost certainly outlive the sign, drill the sign mounting holes into the brick mortar joints, not the brick itself, because it is easy to patch mortar joints but hard to...

Admirable signs, Raymond, but I'll bet your son Mike did all the work while you sat in your air conditioned studio posting wisecracks on the internet.

Don't get smart with me you young whippersnapper!

West System epoxy is fine and I've used it for many years, but I prefer gluing unfinished HDU with urethane glue such as Gorilla Glue because it is the same chemical composition as the HDU itself, is...

The next most common fix for my large motor problems has been to blow out switches, capacitor housings, open motors, etc. with an air hose as sawdust can get in there and act as an insulator between...

Look carefully to see if there is a thermal reset button you've overlooked. I overlooked one on one of my woodworking tool motors a couple of years ago and wasted a lot of time with other things...

Of course my wife disagrees with me, and she's the one with real design credentials.

My favorite thusfar is this one you submitted earlier today.

The single dimensional graphic conveys your skill.

Your business name and contact info is easily read.

The additional...

Also check your speed settings to see they're not too fast as that will cause a PR to not move as it should and so distort such things as circle cuts.

I once had bad circle cuts and discovered...
