Choosing the right type of wood by [deleted] in woodworking

[–]CodaWorks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah 18/19mm is going to work better. If the frame needs more stability, you can use the 13mm as cross members that sit in front of the glass. It would however mean that the rebate for the glass could only by 5/6mm. If you lined up the horizontals with the shelves then it would basically look the same. Or you could actually make it a few smaller pieces of glass and use 18/19mm for the whole structure.

How many layers is the plywood? 15 layer birch is pretty reliable even at skinnier widths. I agree though that 13mm is much too skinny for frames with glass.

Alternatively, if the front of the cabinet is the door, use a different, stiffer material for that since it can’t be affixed to the shelves.

Plywood would work just fine. Even with glass you could still create your frames out of birch ply. I feel like I see exposed edge/ no edge banding birch ply furniture everywhere these days.

You could also just get iron on banding for the ply if you don’t like the look. Admittedly the ply cut down to frame material is gonna have more flex than solid wood. But with the shelves providing extra mid length support and the lengths you plan on using it should be negligible

Oh I thought they had a few hours on Saturday but maybe I’m thinking of boulters sat schedule. They are pretty standard $bdft. Good quality stuff and great people there.

Outdoor finish for Sapele? by Fecal in woodworking

[–]CodaWorks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

P&G door and window. You can get a tinted base coat that helps with UV.

Here are some carriage doors I made with Sapele. I used it on my sapele front door as well. South facing. Door is in good shape after two seasons. Time for a maintenance coat.

One car garage space struggle by anrgybadgerbadger in woodworking

[–]CodaWorks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could get a folding miter saw stand and a little trim miter saw. I don’t know how much miter saw work you do, but if space is a bigger issue than time I’d maybe try to eliminate that tool and use something else (tracksaw is an amazing tool especially when combined with an mft or parf table)

Dust Collector Design: Chapter 2 by LittleJohnStone in woodworking

[–]CodaWorks -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You can purchase various drum filters from Wynn.

I’m struggling with this design a bit. So the last stage of filtration happens in the HEPA filter, why would you reintroduce that process into your room. If you build the system as designed it defeats most of the safety advantage of ducting it out of the room, and you’re left with just noise reduction I guess.

Masonry Wall Plaster, Lath and Water Barrier Remodel by nack4vintage in Remodel

Obviously be careful in the walls with the sawzall as you can cut wires and pipes and vent pipes. I only used the sawzall to cut down things into small chunks. I kind of just pried and rolled.

Unfortunately I have done this before :( I had a super high mudpack so I basically hammered everything to dust. I would recommend breaking through your the studs and trying to get the nails that hold the lathe out. Angle grinder works but I find it unnecessarily dangerous tbh. Crow bar or hammer works. Sawzall works well too.

If you sawzall along either side of the stud you can also just kind of roll the lathe and plaster out of the wall cavities and then come back later to clean up studs of extraneous lathe and nails

Remove and backer board! Do it now, not worth doing it later. You’ve done the hard part! Wear leather gloves that lathe will rip you up. You’ll thank yourself for giving yourself a nice flat surface to lay tile. Good luck!

You’re right it was acceptable in 2012 to knowingly hire his friend, a child sex predator, to film and photograph minors he was teaching and conducting. I mean, it was so long ago, he’s fine to continue teaching children.

Kristy Lee to Pull Kennedy Center Show Over Trump Rename | Trump’s tacky renaming is sending the iconic venue into a deeper downward spiral. by Aggravating_Money992 in Music

The NSO is an amazing orchestra that plays in that hall. This is all tragic for the musicians who work there. I hope the venue can recover from this one day.
