THICKNESS SANDER

You'll find much of the basic hardware needed to build the thickness sander on page 28 at your local hardware store or home improvement center. But some items, like the steel shafts and pulleys, might be a little more challenging to find.

The Vi steel shaft (8920K15), 3/4" shaft (1346K32), bronze sleeve bearings (6391K212), 5" x 5/8" 4Lbelt pulley (6245K47), 2" x 5/8" 4L belt pulley (6245K16), and 4L440 V-Belt (6191K37) were all ordered from McMaster-Carr. I was able to get the handle for the conveyor (6473K77) and the 3/s" studded knobs (5993K43) from there as well.

The two pillow blocks (PRB -156) were ordered from Reid Tools. And the 3/g" through knobs (23820), as well as the magnetic catch (29280), came from Rockier.

You'll also need sandpaper for ^^the conveyor and the drum. I used ^^a 16" x 48" 100-grit sanding belt (WB51410) for the conveyor belt. Rolls of sandpaper to wrap the drum roller come in a variety of grits. I got these from Klingspor.

I picked up a piece of Vi6 "-thick polycarbonate at a local plastics dealer to make the cover for the dust hood. You can also find it available from suppliers of plastic listed in the right margin.

SUPPORT STANDS

A support stand like those featured on page 40 can be a big help when working with longer materials. I was able to pick up the flat-top roller stand made by Ridgid (AC9933) at Home Depot.

The Ultimate Roller Stand (50U01.01) and the roller bearing stand (17U 12.01) were ordered from Lee Valley. And the heavy-duty Flip Top Rolier Stand (43399) and the roller support with universal clamp (64194) came from Rockier. The last two support stands arc also available at the Woodsmith Store.

JIG SAW BLADES

The straight-Ux)th jig saw blade (12520-5) featured in the article on page 26 is made by Porter-Cable. Other good quality blades can also be found at most hardware stores and home centers.

PLASTICS IN THE SHOP

Small plastic sheets can be found at many home improvement and hardware retailers. If you need larger acrylic and polycarbonate sheets, you'll probably need to order them. The sheets used in the article on page 10 were ordered from Regal Plastics and United States Plastic Corp. You can find contact information in the right

margin. Plastic supplies can also be ordered from McMaster-Carr.

MALLETS & HAMMERS

Having the right hammer for the job can really make working in the shop a lot easier. The picture framing hammer (05K9923), Cabinetmaker's Mallet (05E1501), Veritas Journeyman's Brass Mallet (05E1401), and Pocket Hammer (50K3701) I used in the article on page 46 are all available from Lee Valley. The Warrington pattern hammer is available at many woodworking and retail stores as well as from Lee Valley.

FAST-MOUNT SHELVES

Quick and inexpensive shelves like those on page 48 are a great addition to any garage or shop. I was able to find the Fast-Mount SI willing at a local home center. You can also order this shelf system from Lee Valley and Garrett Wade.

BRAZING BAND SAW BLADES

If you want to repair band saw blades using the brazing technique featured on page 12, you'll need to find a blade brazing kit. These kits are available from a number of sources. The blade brazing kit I used came from Woodworker's Supply (897450). &
