its not as easy as that eh..when u get raw materials
you will need some sort of router table, table saw, planer, miter saw, nail gun/compressor etc

[gas brainz]

True....and for the love of god.....
buy timber with 1 straight edge. Will make back the cost in time saved.

[pugboy]

If you have patience and a good router you can surface plane to get one side flat with a rail jig.
Use table saw after to cut a straight edge.

Ive been straightening some rough 2x4s with my router and tablesaw.
Got some nice hardwood ones from pallets.

[Sanctifier]

Thinking to get a plate joiner to start building my furniture for home.

Looks like a well made tool.

IMHO if you need quality finish & strength you'll find Kreg tools & jigs even more useful... Link--> Kreg tools & jigs.

This is their latest, the K5...

[pugboy]

That is cheating man,
Mortise and tenon are still the strongest

Guys! Where can I get 15gauge angled nails locally?

1"-2 1/2" for a nail gun!

Most places has 16-18 gauge so far!

Still looking. Anyone have a clue?

Don't want to resort to online yet as I'm not sure what fittings I need.

Thanks Sanctifier.

[X_Factor]

did u give lotec a call?

there is a place in macoya that sells stuff(compressor stuff, staple gun stuf)

its at the side of COE, i cant remember the name

[Strugglerzinc]

No man, didn't know where to look. Called 2 "hose" places with no luck.

Just emailed LoTec, Thanks.

Wondering if L&G has sale already for father's day? I have to get one of those blowers like the Toro's.

[X_Factor]

Just emailed LoTec, Thanks.

if you dont get a response early tmr....lotec opens at 8, so you can always call them to get a faster response

if their supplies are limited, as for referrals to someone who may have..
but imo, while making the injector cleaner tingy, it was cheaper and easier to just order off amazon...
i just drew a sketch and wrote down all the fittings i needed

[pioneer]

Laughlin as 20% off storewide until father's day.

[M_2NR]

Got my Toro Blower for $299.00. Was hoping to get the vac/mulcher one also but the only other was the bigger B&D.

I didn't realize they carried a lot of dremel items also.


This is d model I believe

got this for sale

[X_Factor]

^sds max for sds plus error?

[Shio]

yeah

[X_Factor]

u;ll have to find someone who has the larger sds drills (more industrial type) they use the max

[pugboy]

Yeah like hilti 55, 56 and up

[X_Factor]

or he could get an adapter piece so it works on the sds plus

[pugboy]

didn't know there were adapters, they are around $60 though so cheaper to buy a new bit depending on situation

[Shio]

was wondering if to cut it and weld back a sds plus fitment
it not spinning so it doesn't have to be perfectly straight
what u guys think?

[pugboy]

that should work, can even weld in reinforcement.
make the joint not too close to drill to avoid drill/operator damage if it breaks.

where you located ?

[X_Factor]

if he has to cut and weld over, what would be nice is if he could get a sorta metal pipe to sleeve the joint that way he is almost sure it wont bust out and damage someone

[Shio]

that sleeve idea sounds great
im from diego martin
now to find someone with an old sds plus bit to throw away

[Caribbeancarbon]

Anyone know where I can get a 7" Mikita polisher? Locally

[shade360]
