Bosch has great customer service. My plunge base busted on me. No receipt, no proof of purchase. I called their customer service. I sent it to them and they turned around and sent me a new one. ...
My Ipe stock is 5/4. I'd have to laminate and was planning on West Systems Epoxy. Otherwise I also have 8/4 white oak on hand, but I don't think it would hold up to the outdoors like Ipe.
Huh. Well my local wood wholesaler said this was the best, most durable wood to use for my patio table. Wood's already purchased. Also my local high-end patio furniture store sells several Ipe...
I've built a 76" x 37" patio table top out of Ipe wood. Super heavy stuff...the table top must weigh well north of 120 pounds!
Now I need to make a base. I guess I'm leaning towards good ole'...
I started out cheap and built my first several pieces out of flat-sawn red oak. I regret it. My time and efforts are too valuable to use cheap wood. Now I choose cherry, mahagony, walnut, or exotics...
My cutting boards are often very slightly uneven :-(
I don't think you want to send them through the planer. The end-grain can actually wreck your planer
I watched a video from Freud on making an exterior door. They used Red Oak.
Thanks. And by running too strong of a motor-- in cases of stress a weaker motor would bind up rather than transferring increased force to these underprovisioned parts on the bandsaw?
Honestly my...
I have one of those old cast-iron Homecraft/Delta 10" bandsaws. It is heavy and well-built. Has served me well in my small basement shop.
I've even used it for light resawing work since it has a...
I recently made a white oak door. Awefully heavy. If I were doing it again, I might choose Douglas Fir
PureBond is pretty crappy. Lots of gaps. And my last sheet of PureBond Maple had a wave of super thin maple which ultimately ruined my project since I sanded through it.
The only decent plywood...
I used the fence rails to attach the auxiliary table, and those don't extend to the left.
Yes, I recently did. I replaced the MDF SawStop extension table with my own creation. I'm generally pretty happy with it. I sandwiched a 3/4" plywood with a 1/2" plywood to get a bit more...
Congrats! You made a good choice.
Huge step up.
My DeWalt 734 benchtop planer had overload problems. DeWalt replaced the switch and problem solver.
I use a little 6" jointer I found on Craigslist for $75. Do I wish i had a big 8"? Yup. But...
I have and use a sled like that. I've used it with rough sawn lumber. You should be fine. Careful where you stand. Definitely get a splitter though.
onedayglass.com will sell dual-paned insulated tempered glass.
I live in Wisconsin. -50 degrees to 100 degrees F ;-)
Right now I'm simply trying to decide whether to order 5/8" or 1/2"...
One side is open. I'll make marching trim to hold in the glass.
Newbie making an exterior door (and so many experts on this forum!).
I need to order some double-paned glass. The Freud cope-and-stick router bits create a slot of 5/8" (of course I routed...
I'm 41. I've been driving for 25 years and have pretty much never made a mistake.
Today I was spaced out driving the car and blew through a red light (I slammed the brakes but not nearly in...
FWIW, the door faces West / NorthWest.
Sounds like I should drawbore it with glue.
Looks like I can find Rescorcinol: ...
Most of this door will be glass which should help...
What would you use for glue?
