I was fortunate to find a 1/2" round over bit at the local HD (last one). They seem to be quite rare. In any case that worked and I am making good bullnose. Thanks.

Thanks for the reply. My bad. It is actually 1" stock. I guess I'm really going to need 1/2" round over bit. Even the 1" bull nose bit leaves a ridge as apparently it is not really for 1" stock. I...

I'm trying to make bull nose for stairs. I have a 1" bull nose router bit and am using true 3/4 stock. Because of the size I cannot make it in one pass. I'm OK with the first pass but it is the 2nd...

Unfortunately the pre-cut holes will not work for double doors or my single entry lock. Buying 2 of them is $310. I can build my own for less than $200 so, as Thomas C. suggests, I am going to have...

The dimensions of each door are 36" X 80 1/4". All the manufactured doors I have found so far are fancy with windows making them unnecessarily expensive (mostly for entryways). No simple slab doors....

Thanks for the reply. I've attached a photo to illustrate the problem better than I can explain it.

As for painting, I don't think laminate lends itself to holding paint very well.

I have an exterior double basement entry door that was apparently custom made. It appears to be a sandwich door with very thin plywood as the outer sheathing (2MM?). Anyway, the bottom is flaking...

I guess so, thanks. Is a rebuild kit necessary and worth the money ($60)?

I have a weird problem with my finish nailer and I am hoping someone can help me troubleshoot it. I have to pull the trigger 3 or more times before it will shoot (I run the air at 90 PSI) Don't laugh...

These are drawers. I don't have access to them now so I can't provide a picture but hopefully and I can describe the problem. The drawers consist of the drawer box with a separate front panel...

Yes. They were no help at all.

I have some Craftmaid cabinets that I need to child proof. The standard big box store locks to not work with Craftmaid. My searching has come up with nothing. Has anyone found any child proof latches...

I use a table belt sander first to get the majority then the orbital sander to finish it.

I'm making a jig that requires a door to open down with spring hinges. However, the hinge cannot be on the inside as the door will be acting as a guide/stop. I'm trying to create a sort of miter box...

Thanks again. Interesting that there is nothing in the packaging or labeling that says it is only for 1/2" overlay. I was not aware there were different hinges for different overlays and I'm guessing...

Yes, those are the ones. Odd that the 13/16" location is not on the instructions in the package. Thanks, at least I have a place to start but I am assuming the dimension is for 3/4" stiles...

Thanks for the replies. I always use scrap to test before I do the real thing but I need a starting point. This is indeed 35mm (Liberty) hinge. I found plenty of instructions (including the one...

I built a pair of cabinet doors and am ready to bore the holes for the hinges (1 1/4"). I opened the package expecting to find information on how far in from the edge to locate the pockets. I was...

I have a real challenge for you experts which is not strictly wood working but I don't know where else to start. I have a stainless steel countertop (14ga) with 3/4" ultra-lite MDF as the substrate....

Hmm. I'll have to look into that. Thanks.

I have no idea what that is.

I am building a custom trailer that has an 11' counter top. The top is stainless with an ultra-light 3/4" MDF substrate. My problem is a span of about 5' and how to support it (the rest is on cabinet...

I'll try to get one but I think I see what is happening. The smaller hinges (1/2") have a much small diameter pin than the 3/4" ones. It appears to me that because of the diameter difference the...

I've built a pair of Murphy style bunk beds. The support legs are attached to the boxes using 3/4" X 2" hinges. All that works fine. I then attached ladders with one side connected to a support leg...

As I said in an earlier post it is interior to the garage so there is no weather exposure. Karl's solution will work just fine.
