  1. I have never seen that, I would have returned the material immediately myself. when I buy 4/4 stock I would not accept a glue-up
  2. I have found with good jointing and looking for a close grain match between pieces leaves a minimal glue line showing , and with the puzzle pieces it should be even less noticeable.
  3. I recently saw 3 in1 oil at Harbor Freight when I was there last.

  13. I have lower back pain and my Doc. told me to take 1Advil and 2 Tylenol for pain and surprisingly it works pretty well for me. I have pain pills for when it gets really bad but I don't like to take them any more than I have to.

  15. Jon T Said, "Scrolling is to be a fun HOBBY. Life is too short man believe me. Relax take your time" How true, People are always in a big hurry, Rush ,Rush, Rush. Where are you going that is more important than relaxing and enjoying life? Like a friend told me long ago, " Just wait, one of these days you will wake up dead and wonder what life was all about" I worked a real job for 45 years to earn a living and provide for my family, when I retired 17 years ago I made up my mind that this is the time for my wife and myself to enjoy what time the good lord chooses to give us, I guess if we were wondering where our next meal is coming from I would look at it differently, but thankfully that is not the case.
  16. Congratulations on the new Home and Shop space. You will be a happy woodworker. Having a basement shop for the past 30 years I would say dust collection is a priority, Happy wife happy life. You are going to have fUN.

  19. Thanks everyone, I don't know if I saved the pattern or not. It is my design and sometimes I do a one off project, and don't save the pattern. I will check when I can get down to my shop and see if I have it somewhere, If so I will share it. I am having trouble climbing the stairs so I have been missing shop work lately. Karl

  22. Your results speak for themselves. Joints look perfect . Great job on the fixture and nice results, that makes a great combination, Well done.
  23. I know this is beating a deal horse, BUT always remember to never leave any oily rags wadded up and laying in your shop, either put them in a can covered with water or spread them out flat to allow them to dry before disposing of them since they are a fire hazard. Always be safe. We don't want anyone to lose their home or shop or worse their lives.
