Have a few projects in mind. Hopefully be able to build kitchen cabinets at some point.
So the question is, what size table saw should I get that will be sufficient for cabinet making?
Amount of floor space and cost are obviously a concern.

Thank you,

I'm staring down a few planks of 5/4 black walnut and wondering how I could get them cut in half to (eventually) 1/2" thick size. Running them through the planar a few dozen times to shave them down seems horrifically wasteful - yet I don't have a bandsaw that can handle wood of this width, 10" wide planks.

What options are there for me if I wanted to turn these 5/4ths planks into usable 1/2" finished boards for a project I'm looking at? I'll entertain taking them to a mill if need be. ]]> klr650 http://www.woodworkingtalk.com/f26/cutting-down-5-4-stock-19120/ Hauncher required http://www.woodworkingtalk.com/f12/hauncher-required-19117/ Fri, 03 Sep 2010 00:38:09 GMT OK you may want to know what a "Hauncher" is. Basically a horizontal shaper specifically designed to make multiple box joints.
I am currently using a table saw jig to cut box joints, but I need to cut costs and a Hauncher would do the trick. I don't need a large industrial unit but rather a 110V unit with a 10" capacity. Can anyone help? ]]> Rossraven http://www.woodworkingtalk.com/f12/hauncher-required-19117/ Outsider trying to help http://www.woodworkingtalk.com/f3/outsider-trying-help-19116/ Fri, 03 Sep 2010 00:31:00 GMT Looking to get familiar around here prior to possibly making a sale on the forum in the future, or at least learning how to.

I am an accountant and have been asked to broker a sale of my stepdad's shop equipment. More on this when the time is right, and I have more information.

In the mean time, I figured I would introduce myself and see if there are any pointers for conducting a sale of this sorts. As a desk jockey I am a bit out of my league.

I am pretty familiar with second hand e-commerce as I am an active member of watch forums. so I know the standard stuff for making sales always applies...lots of pics, good descriptions, and a willingness to answer questions.

Outside of this is there anything industry related I should prepare for? ]]> Introductions thomasenlow http://www.woodworkingtalk.com/f3/outsider-trying-help-19116/ chamfering inside corners http://www.woodworkingtalk.com/f27/chamfering-inside-corners-19115/ Fri, 03 Sep 2010 00:22:05 GMT I need to chamfer @ 45 degrees a rectangle with inside corners. 45 router bit wit bearing leaves a radius in corners.

Sometimes when I saw hard maple I will get these line like things that show up in the lumber. Almost all of the time they are perpendicular to the edge of the board going across the face. If I try to sand them out they just show up more pronounced. ]]> Mizer http://www.woodworkingtalk.com/f26/trouble-sawing-hard-maple-19113/ cutting moulding at odd angles http://www.woodworkingtalk.com/f2/cutting-moulding-odd-angles-19112/ Thu, 02 Sep 2010 23:50:03 GMT I have a project that involves putting moulding around a hexagonal perimeter with unusual angles.

The hexagon does not have equal sides and therfore the angles for the moulding need to be calculated so that when connected, the moulding will be correct.
Does anyone know how to calculate these angles? For example, if the angle is 70 degrees and the moulding is 1.5" wide what angle would I cut on each piece so the joint would be correct? Is there a general formula for calculating these angles for any angle?

I had made some tiny boxy looking cars at some time in the past. I decided to bring them back, but with a twist. I wanted them to have a little bit of character.

So, I built these. Made from a single piece of scrap old growth pine. The grain was actually very close grain, but you can't tell that by looking at these.

So I have done a little bit of woodworking before and im looking to expand to a bigger project. I want to build a liquor cabinet out of a nice hardwood. However, I am not sure of the best way to go about getting the hardwood. Should I just check around at local lumber yards or mills? I know buying it rough is the cheapest way but I do not have a planar or anything to finish the wood.
