    Dunno, my server runs 24/7 since it's also my NAS and Plex host. Edit: Just looked in the settings, don't see that option.

    Woodworking

    I said bandsaw, and I meant for shop-made veneers, obviously. Just because they're thicker than the thinnest viable commercial alternative doesn't declassify them as veneers. What do you think people did before the giant industrial slicers existed? @whoo has more woodworking experience than...

    So which is it? Yes, shop-made veneers are thicker and rougher than commercial but they definitely don't have 1/8" unavoidable error in the cuts. If there were always that much deflection it would be impossible. Here's Stumpy Nubs making cuts that are straight to within the set of his blade's...

    Health Problems

    It's entirely possible that it was placebo. I was having so little fun that I spent a week eating yogurt, kimchi, miso, kombucha, all that shit, combined with the pills. Within a few days I felt tons better, but there's nothing scientific I can point to definitively.

    Erm, this is kinda oxymoronic. A resaw cut is just a rip cut across the wider dimension. A bandsaw is the primary tool for cutting veneers and no one would accept 1/16th plus or minus 1/8. I think you need to get your saw tuned properly.

    Health Problems

    I had one in November and it fucked up my gut flora for a solid two months (cramps with every meal, whee!) before I started taking nightly probiotics. The research isn't clear that they actually do anything, but it sure seemed to help me.

    Bandsaws are WAY safer than table saws. You'd have to be moving fast and paying no attention at all to do that to yourself.

    I have a DeWalt jobsite saw that is highly rated in its class. It's still uncomfortably wobbly and flexible with a bunch of runout and sloppy miter slots. As soon as I finish off updating my house (insualtion and electrical still to go) and cash flow supports it I'm getting a real cabinet saw...

    Honestly, your fingernail is going to do fuck all vs carbide teeth and human reaction time isn't anywhere near fast enough to respond meaningfully to a 4500+ RPM table saw. In the 1/4 second it takes you to figure out what's going on the blade has made 20 full rotations and you'll have had ~1000...

    Presumably it would be a nightmare to get enough wood to the Ashlands to build in the first place and they'll have some new fireproof stone in abundance. The MO is generally to build a base in each biome from local materials.

    I've rebooted everything and turned my firewalls on and off. My connectivity is fine. I'm more worried that there's something weird wrong with my return that's creating spurious errors.

    They're selling Coleman short. Not only did he run into a burning house to save his parents, the reason he succumbed to smoke inhalation and was unconscious for three days days is because he went back in a third time for his dog.
