whats a advatar?

Very nice. I would highly recommend that you spent some serious hours reading over all the past posts that are here on the forum. This place is overloaded with information pertaining to pipecrafting. It takes a little bit more of your own time but IMO it is better than being lazy and just asking que...

"Poo" (sometimes spelled pooh) is the KH technical terminolgy used in regards to bandsaw tensioning.

The post went bye-bye. (either sold or the ad expired)

I am on the lookout for a metal lathe for my workshop. Older good ones can be found on CL for 500 bucks and sometimes less.... but you have to jump on them as they sell fast. Good Luck!

HaHa. Black in beautiful!

I would be very interested, Todd.

I have been pricing 4 jaw lathe chucks and find the prices way over the top and then add on the price of bigger towered jaws? No way. Hell, I could weld up and bend my own tower jaws if need be.

Oh MY now that is sweet, Daniel. That black stem gives it a classy-ass look. I love it. WOW

I like the "busy-ness of all the curves and the different shapes... as it keeps your eye movng and keeps it interesting. A well sculptured piece of art IMO.

Thanks Tyler, I will look him up. :) Sas, Aside from buffing, I have not used it for "piping around" yet as I am still gathering supplies, equipment, knowledge, etc. But "in my head" (aka "on paper") I am thinking that the bandsaw will stay put on one end of the shopsmi...

I have a good older Shopsmith machine (Mark V) which I use for buffing and other wood projects. I picked it up for a steal at 200 dollars. I am thinking of trying to use it to make some pipes. I like it for many reasons. It has a bandsaw attachment and a nice upgraded Rockler table. The motor is var...
