Hi All
I am due to get married next year, and we are having the reception in a marquee. My fiancee thought that it would be a nice idea if I made some things for decorating inside the marquee (table...
Wise words Russell, thanks. I was probably a little too ambitious anyway!
I might try size the remaining pieces with scrapers - any advice on the type/model of scrapers and a technique?
Should I...
Hi again guys, thanks so much to all of you for your help. I ended up routing a slot into a piece of hardwood as suggested by Russell in order to size my pieces to the correct width. This worked...
Hi All,
I am a new owner of a Veritas LA block plane, my first "proper" hand tool! My first use for it is as follows..
I have a large number of mopani wood strips which are roughly cut. I wish...
Johnny - should I employ the 50/50 glue/water to the faces in addition to applying it to the edges?
Thanks
Thanking guys- I'm beginning to think that i should use wood for this project. I see that poplar is said to be good for painting. Problem is that poplar isn't readily available here..

hi guys
a simple question, at least to the more experienced guys here!
Ive got a square spindle about 12" long, 2x2 inch.
i wish to cut some edge banding from this piec, strips of 1/2 inch...
Are there any limitations to the planer sled idea? Is it that it just takes longer/ more effort to get the desired result? Will accuracy be compromised?
Thanks guys

Thanks for the replies guys - I will look at getting a good planer (or thicknesser here in UK & Ireland)!
Hi Guys,
Think it is about time I invested in something to allow me buy rough lumber and save some cash from the planed all over stuff.
Can I just buy a jointer alone (with no additional...
Thanks for advice David
Hi guys
very simple question, i have 1/8 inch walnut veneer that i am glue to edge of coffee table.the veneer looks lifeless, I'm assuming the best thing to do is just apply a gloss poly to it?...
Fair enough Ken, I may have jumped the gun a bit. I think this is due to the fact that the Dowelmax arrived and that prompted me to post here.
I wouldn't consider myself a person who would have...
