How many holes does that make it?

Bob - cool beans. Glad you have a repeatable solution that you're comfortable with. I was wondering if that would provide a lip/shelf to help in alignment. That's pretty neat for your project

"How many miles do you get out of your car brakes?"

That's like how long is a string? Back in the day, my BMW E39 had a stick, sport suspension, and performance tires good for summer weather...

I've been successful with flathead screws. Like, say, a #12. If that won't hold, then march up the scale - 14, 16. Also - by definition, these are adjustable for depth. "Over-sink" it, and back...

I learned early on that finishing before glue/assembly would make my life much easier, unless/until I progressed into spraying.

I use dye and gel stain to get to my end finish on QSWO pieces. ...

My fave is from McMaster - very convenient, and next-day since I live in Atlanta. No need to tell me I am overpaying for service and shipping - I've heard it often enough from - well, you know who...

Adria 8" DT sold yesterday on Bode

Ida got it if it was available when I looked. Then sold my LN

I am confident in my assessment that you are not their target market, and they are unperturbed by your disdain.

Having said that, keep up the good work. I always enjoy what you do, how you do it,...

No.

Resistance is futile.

I like Lee's idea better than mine. Assuming showing the screw heads isn't an aesthetic/grooming violation.

Fire up that router your sticks are sitting on. On the box end pieces, make two quick passes to create very shallow rabbets for the long box sides to fit into. Get out the glue, and glue them up.

Yes - learned this first-hand from Deneb at a trade show decades ago:

Make a piece of wood that is about 1/4" thick and 5 - 6" long. Maybe 1 - 2" wide. Create a way to hold it upright on edge...

Not grumpy. Amused at the frequency with which this topic is resurrected. Each iteration contains a new pretentious spin. I like to tune in - like watching Airplane again, and picking up a new...

I'm not joking. Just starting the countdown until it is nuked.

Hip Cat. Definitely you.

I just got back from a 30 minute ramble through their many many levels of products [yikes] and hit on the 2C colors section. They did a very nice job of showing the...

Explain the RM colors to me. Are they the equivalent of, say, a dye stain.

What's the program here? Are they translucent or opaque? When would you use them?

Thanks again

Jim - great grooming tip. Thanks. Will do. Lotsa DNA to hand

John - If you say it's good, then I'm good. Plus you've cleared up another dilemma/knowledge gap for me. Without filling grain to rub out, I can use steel wool on unfilled surface to rub out and...

I hear that!! Water-based slurry wouldn't help much. I's expect that also implies "full cure".

Plus - I can save my micro-mesh stash until I chew through the 0000. That Liberon roll is like an...

Whoooa...steel wool on WB? seems counter-intuitive to me. Would love to do it - got 9/10 of a 1 kg Liberon roll lurking about.

Not arguing with you, Sir, just asking whaaaaa?

Got some Oil plus A ordered, and also 2C which includes B. Small amounts so I can test things out. I have plenty of material - air dried walnut, cherry, curly cherry, QSWO, HM, curly soft...

OK - something is simply not clicking for me. I don't "get it" on the RM info I read.

Is it one part? Two parts? What is Part A only? What is 2C? When-where-why-how. I'm generally pretty...

yeah - forgot about cypress - ++

Yeah - I’ve got a pair of 12” carcass - both rip and x-cut. “Cold dead hands” category
