Question 2: As maple is rather pricey, do the boards on the top need to be continiuous? In other words, instead of a single 7 ft maple board, would a glued up a 5 ft and 2 ft boards work as well?. I...

these clamps and good stock preparation.
Precision boring amounted inn my case to boring the holes for the bearings through wider stock then ripping the two bearing block apart.
I mounted all my own bearings and rods in this manner and...

I got all my linear bearings on ebay. took a little effort and some time but I only have about $125.00 in the...
I have doors in 6 western states (Mostly W.CO) and a few scattered through the Midwest
None has ever questioned my construction past the use of engineered stiles, which I no longer have to sell,...
Peter: I do not disagree with your synopsis, but there is a yet to be addressed by anyone issue of just how accurate can one make a mortise and tenon ( four on a bottom rail) that is 3" deep on the...
Frank it is quite simple:
The tenon is already there.
It is built into the cope and stick.
But no one seems to believe that such a small area constitutes a tenon.
If the joint is well...
You cannot resaw your stile skins?
It does not require much more than a decently set up table saw to resaw.
A BS is a plus if you have one.
I have been building stile cores from re...
I just use acrylic caulking, it works wonderful between the panels ( moves just enough yet holds the panels.
I have found that the football shaped space balls( McFeeleys IIRC) turned so the 1/2"...
I am going to add a few more things just because:
Most 8/4 stock material today will have a defect in it someplace. one that will show far worse than a built up stile ever would. When you find...
So Frank if a door survives say 100 years with dowels is it a short term door :confused: How would I know the door was 100 yrs old with dowels in it? I saw it after the fire.........
The only...
Tom:
In no particular order here is what I have learned and done over the years.
You could do a 2 layer sandwich (stock needs to be 7/8" finished to do so though, If you do three layer you need...
Yes two passes can be accomplished with the stock rollers.
Mind you the second pass is no more than 1/2 turn on the crank handle, and that the beds and guides must be waxed to keep things slick....
== Making oval molding ==
I had the opportunity to create oval molding for a beveled piece of glass in an air lock door. The glass is quite old ( the door is a replacement in a historic...

right or left tilt this works on either
Standoff fence amounts to clamping a straightedge board to the rip fence so only 1/8" of the edge you are trying to rip is in contact with the tapered...
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
that is the pertinent version :D
I have a question...
If you want a 7* taper on each side of a six foot piece, the base would have to be 19 9/16" wide to have a 2" top :confused::confused:
Are you sure of the taper angle?
...
I would suggest you not try to do the two cuts simultaneously, rather do them as two seperate cuts.
IOW taper the edges @ 7*x 90* first, then set up rip fence with a standoff fence and make the...
that is correct the threads do not interchange.
Joe
No they are not something you can mount on a jointer.
The heads are designed for dedicated molding machines
...
If the set is stacked and the cope is loose it needs to be shimmed.
As sets are sharpened the detail changes ever so slightly and in time you will end up with gaps.
Also, when you cope try...
So Bob in a nutshell
It appears that Powermatic 15HH planer is underpowered for the capacities
listed on the technical spec sheet.
IOW When they released the 15HH unit they forgot to...
put it on the main table, put the fence on parallel to the crosscut slot and remove the back extension table.the main reason for setting up parallel is so I only have one setup in order to run the...
I suggest you joint some edges and compare them to determine if your jointer is setup well enough to make accurate joinery.
How many edges? three to be exact. Why because you can easily have two...
if it is parallel across the width you should be fine.
You only have one head so it does not matter a bit.
When you set up the chip breakers and feed rolls it will carry itself without an...
