    Thanks I've been looking for this site for some time. He has a good article showing how to set jointer knives I like but forgot to bookmark it.

    Oh and he's got a really nice home made multi-router as well.

    I reject your reality and substitute my own.

      "Our engineers' will probably tear this apart somehow:-)

      To me, it's pretty much magic!

        Herb, that's what I was thinking! I was feeling like a lesser human seeing how this guy was able to dream up all this stuff and then I realized that he had training as an engineer!

              The heck with his training, I just want his time to do all this.

              Many thanks for the link, now I know what to do while my thumb heals.
