I will make a plywood board to fit the bottom of the saw, cut a hole in it the size of the gulp, attach the gulp to it and make some wood panels with rare earth magnets to block off the back of the saw where the motor hangs off. This should give me enough suction to have at least decent dust collection.
That is funny, me,...fast...ya, slow and reverse are my two speeds, usually. As for the big gulp, he defined it just a few lines down.
It looks just like the bottom half of a 'black water' dump tank on a common RV.
Got an early birthday gift today.
These have sure come a long way since the last one I had in the 70's with the little pre-printed wood blocks!

What is it Tim?
It's a pyrograpic tool, or in my parlance, a wood burner. This brand doesn't have replaceable tips, but rather a different handpiece for each tip.
I have always admired the basket weave illusion pieces, and plan to start playing around with that type of turning/decoration.

I have had that same one for years now, and it’s still going strong. Great tool IMHO

I got a new router bit today! Drawer lock bit, gives more glue surface are. If I had a bunch of drawers to do I would set up the dovetail jig. But for a drawer here and there occasional use this will be quick and easy.

That could work for hanging stuff up in the shop too. A modular wall storage thing....

Not really, it's not that big. Better to use a French cleat for that with a 45 deg angle.

Either you're a giant, or that bowl is super small....

Betty said it looks like the Texas cutting board we have, little does she know.......
@Flacer22
Andy sent these two white oak pieces, 1 flat sawn and 1 quarter sawn. Andy, these look the same as when yo sent them?
First piece is showing some surface checking on one side, was the checking there when you shipped it? Key and coins for reference and to cover personal information. I waxed ends just to slow things down some.
Seeing the circular grain pattern, I'd wonder if there was a stub deep down...
This 1/4 sawn piece has a bunch of spots, look like iron stain. Were you sanding any metal close by?
Circled a check, it also runs up the right side a bit. Wondered if it was shake? Should be able to get a nice sample from the top left edge in a few months (6).
Andy, what do I owe? Can I at least cover shipping? And Thanks again for sending these.

The flat sawn piece was actually from a piece had recently had in kiln those checks were in it when I sent yes it was 8% so figured u could plane them out when u made your sample if it's higher it may have sucked mositure from the quarter sawn piece.
The quarter sawn piece I actually took from a larger can't and resawnd it thin for you and to get quarter sawn literally right before I put it in mail so may have just been from band and me putting it right in mail?!? It did have that check in it is it still gonna work?? I might be able to get another quarter sawn piece from something else if need be but was little tricky on the quarter sawn one haha and it was from log I just cut so it's rely green.
Something from Woodcraft that I don't remember ordering. So it'll be a surprise when it gets here.
Thanks Andy,
I know how sometimes woods move a lot while in shipment, double meaning, so thought I should ask. The flatsawn piece weighed 19 oz. and the 1/4 sawn 34 oz. Using weights and volumes, I'd say the flatsawn picked up a good bit of moisture. They are both on the front porch, an enclosed "sun-room", to find balance. I don't have a moisture meter, use my brother's and he is weirded out over Covid, so I'll just do the old school wait. Thank you again, I think they will both work, just need to wait a few months to find out.
