    Any Other Woodworkers on BOTL?

    My plan was to put puck lights on top of the bookshelves, pointing up at the ceiling. There is about a foot between the tops and the ceiling. That should make some nice indirect light. I hadn't thought about lighting the inside as well. I added some profile to the stiles and edge to the top...

    Any Other Woodworkers on BOTL?

    Finally getting back to my book shelves. I'm working on the face frames and wanted to do something fancy with the top rail. I made a template with 1/4" scrape plywood by tracing out 1/2 oval. Then cut out the oval with a jig saw. I used a straight cutting bit and a collar in the router to cut...

    Any Other Woodworkers on BOTL?

    Somewhere in there I'm laminating two pieces of plywood together. This is the start of part 2 of my cabinet + bookshelf project. Did the cabinets last summer. Now time for the bookshelves that will sit on top. I should have some dry fit pics soon. I picked up a Freud Diablo blade for my table...

    The Official Cigar Deals Thread

    That's a cool trick! Thanks for sharing. I had to go to my account page and hit the "mobile scorcher" link. The one on the home page still has the countdown.

    Need a new dishwasher

    I'm thinking there should be a solid black market for old appliances. I have a harvest gold fridge in the garage to lager beer. Might move it in the house to become my main fridge.

    Need a new dishwasher

    Thanks to everyone's feedback I picked up a Bosch Ascenta dishwasher yesterday. So far we've run two loads and it hasn't broken. That means it has already exceeded the performance record of the previous one.

Maytag...Dishwasher...Blew computer board at second use...fixed under warranty...blew computer board...

    Need a new dishwasher

    Thanks guys. Sure sounds like Bosch is the favorite here. I was looking at them and they have the food filter in them. How are those? Do they get stinky?

    Need a new dishwasher

    Our Maytag dishwasher took a dump...again. It's looking like $380 in parts alone for me to fix it. Considering the track record and the cost, I'm looking for a replacement that is NOT built by Whirlpool Corp. I'm tired of fixing their lemons. My house if full of them. Any recommendations on...
