It’s show #582 - On today’s show, we’re talking about tear out on cherry, stock prep time savings: planer or jointer, and there’s bugs in my nut wood.Sponsored by WoodcraftWoodcraft is looking out for you guys. Do you know how?They want to make sure you know what to expect when it comes to this whole tariff debacle. Because tariffs are obviously going to impact a LOT of the major power tool purchases woodworkers make in the foreseeable future.So while details and dates are somewhat fluid, here are the most current timelines:JPW (that’s Jet and Powermatic): June 15thLaguna - July 1stSawstop - Mid-JulyWoodcraft is trying to be as transparent as possible and they’ll be sending out emails about this in the future. Bottom line is, prices are going up. Woodcraft didn’t set the prices so don’t shoot the messenger.So if you’re in the market and were thinking about making a major purchase, it probably behooves you to do it now.In fact, here’s one better. When you go to woodcraft.com, you’ll get a little popup offering you a discount for signing up for their newsletter. Do it, because you can save 10% off your first order. Exclusions apply so you’ll want to read that fine text but hey, a discount’s a discount.Sponsored by YouIf you want to help support the show, you can do so by going to Patreon.com/woodtalk and signing up to become a patron of the show.What's on the BenchMarc has found his epoxy redemption and completed the mantel project.Shannon has started demo on his new deck.Matt is fixing stuff...then breaking it again.KickbackSteve Goldberg has Japan feedback for Steve Goodloe.

Does he buy a planer or jointer? Can he get by with a planer alone? He does point out a pretty slick planer sled jig on Instagram.Steve has inherited some Butternut that was air dried and has some signs of bugs.
