Listened to your last podcast. Great stuff as always. You all mentioned that if lee valley had a black friday sale you would buy everything. Its not a black friday sale but right now I am looking at their cyber monday sale page.
Hey Marc what was the name of the manufacturer of those bulbs you talked about?
Love the show.
Matt
Pretty sure he’s talking about these Feit bulbs.

yup!
Mark,
I looked on the HD site and could not determine the bulb you mentioned. Do you have a brand/model number.
My HD had it in the light bulb aisle. Here’s the exact product: http://amzn.to/2fTJbD3
I think Ishitani Furniture on Youtube uses one of this fancy super surfacer dealy whackers, just seems like a smaller version. But I always wondered what that thing was.
I heard the call from Nate about adding color to Minwax Antique finish. I use this finish often and color with Lockwood oil soluble powder. Wirks very well.

The joke is on Marc and Shannon, Matt was too humble to point out that putting the Sawstop technology on a band saw mill is pointless because the wood is too wet and it would have to be disabled all the time.
What wattage did you replace with the 300 watt LED bulb?
I never checked. It was a CFL bulb. From looking at them, I’d estimate they were probably 40w equivalent.
