1. Designing a Dust Collection System -- Nicks explains the math and engineering necessary for effective dust collection for a small shop. Includes plans for an airstream splitter and pipe terminals. 2. Scrollsaw Ornaments -- Make compound cuts on a scroll saw to create beautiful Christmas ornaments. We share several original designs by scroller Dale Stephens. A great scrap wood project!
3.Glue-Ups for Patterned Turnings -- Glue up strips of contrasting woods to create spectacular effects in lathe turnings. We turn several rolling pins, showing how each glue-up produces a different pattern. 4. Choosing Table Saw Blades --  We discuss new advances in saw blade design, the types available through Shopsmith and others, how each blade is used, and how to mount them on the Shopsmith Mark V.
