The Flaming Table Saw is back

Hey there, If you watched The Wood Whisperer in the early days, you might remember my custom Powermatic PM2000 with the ridiculous flame paint job. It left my shop in 2016 as part of a charity auction, and I figured I'd never see it again. Well, it's back! Guild member Socheat had been storing it and reached out to see where it should go next. My answer was pretty quick: "I'll take it!" In the new video, I unbox it (live on the Morning Show, which was a fun mess), finally fix that notoriously...

After each release, I'll host a live meeting to talk through the lessons, answer your questions, and see what everyone is building.This is how we ran Guild courses in the early days. Everyone building worked at the same pace, and the conversations that came out of it were the best part of the whole thing. I've missed that, so we're...
