Hi, Which Benchtop Sander is better for general woodworking?

June 7th, 2010

I’m looking to get a bench sander, I see Sears has the belt and disc type, and I see some other brands (Home Depot) have a spindle type with different size spindles.

Which do you think is better for general woodworking?

What is a good bookcase with glass doors?

May 25th, 2010

I would like something about 2 or 3 shelves (counting the bottom shelf). And I would like it be be kinda airtight. And as inexpensive as possible. I have tried looking all over for some like I have described (OfficeMax, Home Depot, ect) But I can not find any. So if you could link me to a retail site with a bookcase I described it would be appreciated.

What type of wood is good for all purpose woodwork?

May 23rd, 2010

I want to go to Lowe’s or Home Depot and buy some lumber for my newly bought power tools. I plan on making random things whenever I feel like it and I’m looking for a general all purpose type of wood. I know there are specific woods for specific projects but there has to be something that’s okay for everything. I want to build chests, little bookcases, rice paper lamps, stools, dvd cases, or whatever else I can think of. I’d also like to keep it in the cheap to moderate price range nothing expensive I just want to stock up. Thanks.

Where can I find a ladder for use with a bookcase?

May 15th, 2010

I have a tall bookcase that requires a ladder. Where can I find one online? I have searched eBay and Yahoo and have found nothing. Ikea sells them, but we don’t have any Ikea stores in my state, and if I order one from their site, they will charge me over 0 just to ship it. If you know of an online store that sells nice, reasonably priced ladders for use with bookcases, please let me know. Thanks!
My town doesn’t have a Home Depot either.
I’m looking for something like this that doesn’t have to be attached to a wall:

How much wood do I need to build a bookcase?

April 21st, 2010

I’m making a bookcase that’s 2 ft wide and 3 feet tall for my carpentry class and my teacher says we need a project plan that includes all the material and prices. Well I know how many nails and what tools I need but I don’t know how to find out how much wood and how much it’ll cost? I’m on The Home Depot site but I still can’t figure it out. I want wood that’s not crappy but not something too expensive.
