I think I'm a little spoiled though, within 10 miles of me I have Ace hardware, Lowes, Home Depot, Menards, Rockler, and Woodcraft So I tend to hit up the big box stores first because they are cheaper and then move to the woodworking stores when I can't find specific tools from the others. For wood though I only would buy plywood from the big ...
I was seeing if I could save myself some labor by picking up some 1/2" square hardwood dowels from Home Depot. They had a section for softwood round dowels, hardwood round dowels, and hardwood square dowels. I softwood round dowels were pine. The hardwood round dowels were oak. Unfortunately, the hardwood square dowels were pine.
There is a difference in quality in almost everything sold in the box stores compared to supply houses from plumbing to tools. The reason Hilti stopped selling their tools in home depot was because home depot wanted them to make a cheaper version of their tools for them. Hilti refused to do it. I got this info right from a Hilti rep.
The Ridgid RS1000 Radial Arm Saw from Home Depot. A stationary saw that combines most of the abilities of a table saw, jointer, and shaper. Yes, this tool has done all of this and more… What do you get? The RS1000 comes in a box approx 2'D x 4'W x 2'H, with a shipping weight of 170 lbs and a setup weight of approx. 150 lbs.
Or, go to Home Depot's cabinet department and buy the Forstner bit and template for about $15, no measuring. I've done so many of these, i just attach the cup to the door, then hold the door to the box, and drill/screw it right in without measuring. They are adjustable so close enough will get you perfect doors after adjustments.
The Home Depot's by me, seem to have better lumber, especially plywood and that is where I shop for wood. Steve: Franklin, WI Save Share
Home Depot has the product in two sizes and two colors. A couple large tubes and one small tube of the grey was needed to complete the floor in this two car garage. The installation was simple, as previously mentioned, but there are a couple precautions. First, make sure the joints are completely cleaned out.
I am a Trainer for a German owned hardware company, and in years past have managed stores for and or been an Instructor for Shopsmith Inc. in Dayton Ohio, Boston Mass and Columbus Ohio. My woodworking interests tend towards the Shaker and Mission style, but mostly I enjoy restoring tools and building jig and fixtures.
I'm not sure about apples and grapes. Apparently you can do as much with a job site saw as you can with some contractor/cabinet saws. I work part time at Home Depot in the lumber and building materials department. Just the other day I was cutting plywood for a customer who happened to be a hobby furniture maker.
however, I'd like to make my own by just buying it at Home Depot and cutting the slots myself. My question is how would i go about making the slots? I'm thinking a metal cutting drill bit to make the opening followed by a Dremel with a cutoff Wheel to connect the holes. Would that be the quickest way to do this?
