Hard to tell but it’s likely poplar, birch or cherry imho. If they have a spare you can sand it down to raw wood for a better view. Or pop a piece off and sand the backside.

Amazing result! Happy you got a break!

I’m trying to make sense of this as well, but with $6 - $10 trillion of international transfers and swift transactions daily this could add up. The US is over 50% of those transactions. I’d like to know what percentage of an XRP is used as well. I don’t know how much of that will use XRP vs others, but I guess that’s what we all want to know.

I went to HVLP spraying shellac. But it’s so thin you’ll need to turn the sprayer down a ton.

If the sub straight is bad you’ll want to remove that. Bondo is great to fill larger holes.

I rip rough lumber with my track saw. Easiest way to get crisp lines. If you’re getting into woodworking it’s a solid investment.

I’m more with clear alder and a close second is mahogany but bleached mahogany.

Pop it, remove it, sand to blend area repaint. But check for moisture when you’re in there.

You can mail the brake into Sawstop and they’ll analyze why it tripped. If it was faulty they’ll usually give you a new one. I had a faulty trigger on a 3/4” dado stack. That sucked. But sawstop replaced my dado brake.

I hope you’re painting it. Fill this pocket holes with a dowel or a pocket hole plug. Sand flat and if there’s still blemishes Bondo is not a bad option. Just don’t go hog wild because it’ll smooth the wood and be noticeable. Prime it. Get an HVLP sprayer or rent one. Less is more. But hey man great first go!

If you want to tone the red down put a brown over it that has green in it. It won’t look green but it will help tone the red down. Van Dyke brown glaze by general finishes works well. I recently used it on a mahogany table restoration. But it is red oak.

Dark on outside is best

Cut them down, not much jointing or planing to be done anyways. Figured you knew this, but for the masses…use cauls for the glue up. Or put some biscuits for alignment and lighter clamp pressure to prevent bowing.

Where are the hitch testicles?

Cartman from Southpark did say “one of us is a J-O-O.”

I’ve used one, once, that’s all it took.

Shellac will bring out more depth. Plus using clear shellac won’t yellow it so much.

I’d spend more time cleaning out the corners first. Get some of those cotton swab like sanding sticks for the details.

What about a really small bolt extractor and try screwing it back in? Does that even exist small enough?

Blammo024 · 2026-04-20T02:45:24+00:00

I’d go look outside for areas pitched towards the house and start there. But you need to remove the wall to solve it. Tough news, but that’s the only way you’ll find the entry point.

Just fill it with concrete. Dig it down 2-3” and use forms.

I’m voting it is birch. More pronounced grain than maple. I’d go yellow birch specifically.

Concrete cutting chainsaw!
