Since you want to keep this long term, I will offer the following:
You should use galvanized bolts rated for pt wood and thru bolt the laminations with the PL400 on the skids. Screws will pull and...
The floating legs at only one end look fabulous to me. I have a more modern taste and style, so that mixed with the "rustic" is awesome. I think it balances perfectly and is a functional sculpture ...
Awesome. Thank you both for the input, it puts my mind at ease a little to know it won't be a major hassle. I do think I'll look at sawing first, but the option is now there for me.
I'm curious if anyone has tried to resaw boards where large voids were filled with epoxy resin. Was the attempt successful or not?
I have an order for a magnetic knife board and I need to fill a...
Count me in please.
Count me in please.
I prefer walnut with white oak as well. The contract appeals to me.
I am hoping the collective knowledge could help identify this lathe and also let me know your thoughts on it. It's my hope to get into turning soon and this one came up for sale near me. It's 110v...
Option #1 is lease intrusive of the existing structure and probably easiest to construct.
Option #2 always looks like what we call a "half & half" meaning half committed and half done.
Option...
This is a great piece and well executed. It has interest from every view.
How heavy is it? Or are you able to remove sections for moving?
Small world! I actually live in Galway and am familiar with St. Johnsville since it's a small farming town like mine.
I appreciate the information and plan to contact the local stores tomorrow...
Thank you all for the input. I'll look into all of it and see what's available near me. In NY, most everything is closed and shipping is pretty slow but I will find one of the suggestions I am sure....
I am finishing up some Laundry Room cabinets that are plywood boxes with mdf face frames and panel doors. I am thinking of leaving the insides natural and painted the doors & frames.
My questions...
Another great project and a great build along. I truly appreciate you taking the time for photos and writing these up. I always seem to learn something new, whether a little trick from a photo or...
I would look at methods to flatten the areas where the brackets mount at the bottom. Chisel, hand plane, sander, etc.
This is where I get myself in trouble. If making a bridge for the router is...
It looks great in its' setting and I like the contemporary design.
That is a fairly heavy object to hang from the wall. As noted above by Jamie, metal studs are not great for hanging and wall items from unless blocked properly.
The other issue is that they are...
I use Gorilla Glue for pressure treated due to it being so wet and it takes a long time to dry. The Gorilla Glue allows for use on damp wood. I would purchase the best lumber you can (i.e. straight,...
Those are some great pieces! The chair is beautiful. Did you design it as well?
That's a wonderful sight. It is great to see a younger person learn, create, work, and then enjoy the efforts. He is a fine young man.
I cannot wait to see the final table. It's been great following along and learning.
Thank you for keeping us updated.
If you want to keep the height, I would recommend spray foam to the deck and then gypsum wall board over that. This gives you a higher space even though you have the bracing every 4ft.
We have been...
Thank you both for the insight, which sort of reinforced my thinking. I may end up painting them, but am still considering it. I have a set of Adirondack chairs made from regular white pine eight...
I am finishing up the build of six outdoor chairs and a 7ft table for our deck, and have spent hours researching and reading about the best finish for these. I am looking for something clear to allow...
