Nice router lift
Nice built that uses a standard trim router. Been looking at building my own but trim routers (used and cheap) are hard to find. Full size ones are easier to find. https://www.homemadetools.net/forum/router-lift-video-93194#post211195

Portable table sander build
The author uses a DC motor and drill battery to make the sander portable. To the the torque behind this build the author uses a series of gear/pulley combinations. This build also works with a DC plug too. https://www.homemadetools.net/forum/disc-sander-video-91271#post204114

Interesting panel saw build
I always like how easy its to cut plywood down at the lumberyards with the panel saw they have. The author builds one that is a bit interesting as the saw is on the inside of the track. https://www.homemadetools.net/forum/panel-saw-video-94207#post214700

Another nice multi device track saw build
Its a fence that can be self clamped to the board you are cutting. This one allows for a circular saw, jig saw, and router to be used. https://www.homemadetools.net/forum/innovative-multifunction-woodworking-track-guide-locking-system-perfect-wo-93206#post211231

Multipurpose table saw sled
I like this build, but a few things I would add is a tape measure on the top of the backstop, a “stop” for repeat cuts, and a sliding bar on the backstop to add stuff to the sled. Of … Continue reading

Nice short write-up on using dowels for joints
The author does a nice job on how you can a tool called the dowelmax to use dowels as corner joints. But…I have seen several homemade tools that do the same job. Still nice article to read up on.

Clever Wood Lathe Steady Rest
OK so I have looked at buying something like this (just not as fancy) and its expensive. This build seems pretty straight forward and doable. And cheap. https://www.homemadetools.net/forum/wood-lathe-steady-rest-video-88490?homelistings#post193018
