    Short answer: No.
    I have both and each has its uses and none replaces the other in all situations.

    Every single one of them I have a good use for and wouldn't call any of them junk.
    The most surprising in your list was ROS: that's the one sander I use the most.

    Maple is not the most stable wood. Pick a thick board that has sat for years, cut it, leave it for couple of days and it moves. It is worse with wider planks. I am not in the business but have seen...

    What would be a reasonable approach for someone (like me) that doesn't use the compressor frequently? Currently whenever I want to use the compressor, shut the valve and turn it on, once done for the...

    Thanks John. I think the crack may be very close to the tenon (here is the picture I have for the bottom rail mortises).
    I don't think water has been an issue at all. The most likely cause must have...

    Nowhere near the experience of others here but I built our entry door (system) back in 2014 (documented here) and I loved the outcome. Although wooden doors take quite a bit of time and care to build...

    I removed the door, flipped upside down, sanded the bottom, taped around the edge (a little proud) and poured west system epoxy. After sanding it down a bit it's about 3/32" thick. Drilled holes and...

    Wow! I am glad to learn this is in fact a common method used. Thank you.

    Oh it is absolutely necessary in our cold climate, even tiniest amount of hole for air to seep in will form frost when it is -30C outside. The first year when I had built the door I bought a "better"...

    One more question before I undertake this task this weekend:

    I talked to people at west system and explained the task and my plan (to use 105 system). He said many do use it for that purpose and suggested I can thin it down by adding 5% solvent (acetone or...

    Our weather here right now isn't too humid yet (in fact we have had a bit of a dry spring so far). So I think the moisture level isn't too high.

    My plan is to do this in one day: remove the door, tip upside down, tape around the bottom, then inject thin epoxy into cracks and make a very shallow pool of epoxy (west system) at the bottom of...

    Thanks Rich. My earlier post got deleted by mistake:

    So tipping the door upside down and letting thin epoxy sink into the ends would be a good idea I suppose.
    Rain doesn't get to the door but I...

    Is using a flexible sealant to cover the end grain of stiles a better option than epoxy?

    Have a 37x2 supermax (Made in US) that rarely use but when needed it does the job and nothing can replace it.
    It's biggest drawback for me is its massive footprint. It does take a LOT of space.
