    So today, the misses and I finally brought home the old Steamer box from her grandma's. This one is a wardrobe style, sits upright like this, has 3 drawers on one side and hangers on the other.... Well, the misses thought it was going to be one of the bigger ones, so she started hunting CL and we scored this one for free: So now, we have two to refurb. The first one, the exterior seems to be like a thin leather covering, with thicker leather edges, brass hardware almost everywhere (two are steel?), and two sheet metal beams, all with brass rivets. The second one seems like it's tin wrapped, riveted together, with wood trim.

    The radial arm saw is, in my opinion, and that of many experts, the single most dangerous power tool that you can have in your shop to cut plywood panels. There are very few cuts that you cannot make just as easily on a table saw or a Compound miter saw. Also, a Table saw or Compound Miter saw will be more accurate than a radial arm saw. If you are going to be making Rip cuts in full 4X8 sheets of plywood, either buy a Cabinet style table saw and use some sort of outfeed support, or buy or build a panel saw. Panel saws are not quite as accurate as a table saw, but they are far easier to use on large sheets of plywood, and they are more accurate than an unguided skilsaw. I have a table saw, compound miter saw and a radial arm saw. the table saw and miter saw get almost constant use, but I have not felt the desire to go anywhere near the radial arm saw since I bought the table saw. My final recommendation would be this, whatever you decide, DO NOT buy a radial arm saw. Joseph Rohdes
