Mark is going to wish he never raised this issue.

Charles, you know I was kidding about anyone else being down there, right? I wasn't sure, as you had no smilies in your post!??!

You're right that it needs attention, though. I DO know that... but we also know that no one else gets exposed but us, and we spend very, very little time down there. The only reason I'm giving it more thought, is that I'd like to plan on spending more time down there with my new-found woodworking re-interest. \:\)

Mark one thing to think about is if your furnace is in the basement it may be drawing fibres into your ductwork and throughout your house. Since I don't know your setup it's had to tell. Had you had your home tested for asbestos fibres?

Actually, we have a gas-fired steam boiler, so there's no air moving around. Seriously... thanks for the concern though! \:\)

Anybody else disappointed by Mark's complete lack of freaking out here?

We should call his wife and let her know Mark is keeping a dark secret in the basement.



Edit:...and there is asbestos down there.

Really, I'm just afraid that if some asbestos guy is poking around there, he might question the fresh earth in the corner....

Anyone here doing dovetails?

I might pick up either a Keller setup or a PorterCable 4212 or a Rockler. I've wanted to try dovetails for awhile, but at the moment have many projects needing drawers.

Any input appreciated from you "dovers".... \:\)

I could be wrong, Mark, but I always thought that Porter Cable was more-a-less the standard for dovetail jigs. I haven't used one, but watched a demo of one at the Woodworking Show in T.O. As far as I know, when you make dovetails, you are making both adjoining pieces at the same time...one piece sits vertically in the jig and one horizontally with a stagger to it(half the pitch of one dovetail to the next). Both are cut at the same time, as would be done in the PC jig...I think that Keller jig you would make each piece separately by the looks of it, something to consider. As I said, haven't used one before, just an observation but I don't think you'd go wrong with the PC.
