has pigtails with a 110V plug and socket attached. It's really handy. Of course, once I found the Jet switch, like on my table saw, I would probably use that instead, but this one was first. Okay, so I'll show off a little, ahem, bit. Here's the drawer with router bits in it. Not all that large a collection, but several red, orange, and white bits there. Actually, I think the

I do know that the back panel for the rack was made from the original tool panel. Anyway, I pawed around in the scrap plywood pile, maybe even bought a sheet, and this is what I cobbled up. Well, it doesn't seem like much, does it? This shot is the same orientation as the second one above; the one with the planer and chopsaw. Yes, I brought the shop vac with me. But I left the

The Leigh gets all the press because it focuses on through dovetails, but the Omnijig is designed for production work day in and day out. And it'll do through dovetails just fine, thank you. Here is a picture of the north wall of the basement; one of the outside legs of the el . To the left is the radial arm saw, in the center is a roll-around tool chest, and to the right is my

. I mentioned elsewhere that I hate pegboard, so this was my solution. Custom racks are great if you can fill them when you build them. They aren't well adapted to adding stuff later on. This is my power tool rack. I don't have that many creative moments; most of the things I do are either fixing things or adapting someone else's ideas. This one is mine. My father came up

with the backcutter. I think for the next set of panels I'm going to buy a bit without the back-cutter and then do the back relief with a separate back cutter. Jesada has a nice set for that. Turning east, is the other outside leg of the el . I see I cleverly missed most of the workbench and the tool panels above it. But here you can see the Craftsman drill press to the right and

attachment that replaces the little plastic thingee we all love to hate. I don't know how they can design such a crappy adaptor as that and such a nice one as this at the same factory. Another 90° to the right and in the northwest corner is an ancient Sears jigsaw. Frankly, I don't use it much. I think jigsaw work is something like lathe turning; it's a subset of

most of you were never there, it won't matter. The el's legs were east/west and north south. The first picture is taken from the northeast (outside) corner of the el and looks southwest. You are looking toward the back of the tablesaw. In this view is the Delta DJ-15, in the dark to the left. Visible behind the jointer is the Craftsman compressor. One of the favorite family

my old, homemade lathe, built some pine stands and rigged an attachment for the rollers. They're clunky, and sometimes they don't sit as square as I'd like, but they're amazingly functional. Speaking of lathes, here's mine. Plain old Craftsman design that hasn't changed in years. The Ridgid offering at Home Depot is virtually identical except for the color. Several of my Badger

deep. It is incredibly handy for nails, screws, machine parts, scrap brass, shim stock, and lots of other things. It's cheap, hideous, only moderately well made, and I can't throw it away. This is a picture of the custom hand tool racks I built above the workbench. I mentioned elsewhere that I hate pegboard, so this was my solution. Custom racks are great if you can fill them

price. I have a lot of stuff stored in there that I could never have found room for on a wall. I had another smaller (but heavier) unit in the garage for my wrenches, auto air tools, etc. This is a closer shot of my router table with my Hitachi M12V in it. Note the switch on the upper left. I found it at The Woodworker's Store in Morris, Illinois. I don't recall a

the chop saw stand on display at Home Depot once and bought it on the spot. I love it. The company sold the product to DeWalt, who modified the design somewhat. I like the original better. This is a view of the business end of the table saw. This is the Sow's Ear of which I speak occassionally. On top is the Delta Tenoning jig, and the XR2424 fence is visible, although somewhat

the picture, but the 4 dust colllection pipe feeds through the wall below the air regulator to the Jet 1 hp DC behind the wall. The switch for the DC is on the corner below the tool belt. Moving to the right, we see the table saw in the haze at the lower left, the Delta 28-280 bandsaw, Delta 22-540 planer, the Makita LS-1030 chopsaw on a TracMaster stand behind it, an old

there. If I've learned nothing else since being in this condo I've learned that it's nice to have a place to go to work on something that's fully equipped, even if it's just downstairs. I built a workbench for my son, a CD rack for my daughter, a sewing cabinet for my wife, and performed lots of other less poignant tasks here. I didn't realize until I had taken the lights
