General Scroll Saw Talk / Re: sanding down draft table

« on: December 21, 2014, 12:08:45 pm »

I do not have one yet but have been thinking about making one.  Mine needs to be a lot like
Rapid Roger's, portable so I can move it when not being used as my work bench is kind of small.  I like doing small projects so I am thinking about 12" x 24" or 12" x 36" and using pegboard with 1/4" holes using either 1" x 4" or 1" x 6" pine for the sides so I can use 4" line to my 2 hp dust collector or maybe my 1 hp dust collector.

General Scroll Saw Talk / Plastic sheet??

« on: December 12, 2014, 09:45:34 am »

I want to cut a new sub-base plate for my Dewalt router out of plastic sheet about 1/4" thick, what would be the best to cut on the scroll saw?  Acrylic, Lexan or what.  I would prefer something I can find easily like at a big box store in small quantities.  Any experienced help and advice out there.

I found a picture I like, all I need is the truck and trailer.  Any help would be greatly appreciated by myself and our son.  I hope to make this for him for Christmas.

Me too, what I would save on freight I would spend more than that in person.

I have called all the local lumber yards, big box stores they don't have it and say they can't get it.  I just got off ,the phone with Sloan's and ordered some 1/8" BB Ply.  Can't wait to try cutting the pattern of the Dutch Ovens I received here.

I wish we had a place around here that sold BB Plywood.  All we have is Hobby Lobby, Michaels and they have small pieces and are not cheap.

Has anyone ordered 1/8" Baltic Birch Ply from Woodcraft?
I am wondering about the quality.

Trying to find a pattern for a Dutch Oven or to make a pattern from this picture.  DW and I belong to a Dutch Oven Cooking club and I want to make a sign to put at our position when we gather to cook (DOG).

I would love to cut either one of these to put on our table.

A transformer cannot change the frequency, you will need a converter.

The Coffee Shop / Governmentium

« on: September 14, 2014, 12:24:22 pm »

The CSIRO has discovered the heaviest element yet known to science.

The new element is Governmentium (Gv). It has one neutron, 25 assistant neutrons, 88 deputy neutrons and 198 assistant deputy neutrons, giving it an atomic mass of 312. These 312 particles are held together by forces called morons, which are surrounded by vast quantities of lepton-like particles called peons. Since Governmentium has no electrons, it is inert. However, it can be detected, because it impedes every reaction with which it comes into contact. A tiny amount of Governmentium can cause a reaction normally taking less than a second to take from four days to four years to complete. Governmentium has a normal half-life of 2 - 6 years. It does not decay but instead undergoes a reorganisation in which a portion of the assistant neutrons and deputy neutrons exchange places. In fact, Governmentium's mass will actually increase over time, since each reorganisation will cause more morons to become neutrons, forming isodopes.
This characteristic of moron promotion leads some scientists to believe that Governmentium is formed whenever morons reach a critical concentration. This hypothetical quantity is referred to as critical morass.
When catalysed with money, Governmentium becomes Administratium, an element that radiates just as much energy as Governmentium since it has half as many peons but twice as many morons.
