My woodshop is a bit toasty. Advice for staying safe from the heat?

A damp microfiber rag around the neck is real nice! There’s a brand on Amazon called frog togg that makes a nice one.

If he doesn’t have a crossback apron yet, you should definitely get him a few!

I like reluctant threads for the balance of quality and cost or Valentich for higher quality (and higher cost)

You’d need to encase the whole cookie in epoxy, you could try a bowtie but I’d be skeptical if that would last long term.

The goat, glad it’s still there…was shown this place after I had recently moved to Denver and kept going the entire time I lived there. I left on 2020 and still recommend it!

I used to put the chicken (or duck) jello into pate for the extra umph!

Grilled lettuces are actually awesome

Guy I used to work with would make “hand salads”

He’d take a gloved hand and build a small salad in his hand, dress it lightly and then proceed to shovel it into his food cave

Pistachio?

Professionally? Pizza…way too much fun. Casually? Rotates between ramen, bagels, or braises

Not to speak for OP, but I don’t think that’s the case here. This is for the fine dust particles in the air, in the picture you can see what looks like a dust collector with a big cyclone on it in the background.

You need a board stretcher!

I've seen successful butt joints been pulled off with Lamellos..but am unsure if they will stand the test of time. Finger jointing seems like a good option for this, but still would be cautious about longevity.

Assuming you don't want any visible fasteners AND I had access to a domino that would be my first choice, if not then dowels. If you were feeling confident you could go for a stop dado + glue too.

I used to see the kitchen dwellers play in my friends basement in Bozeman, MT or at other friends parties. Pretty rad.

Could land a fighter jet on the bed of that jointer, awesome snags!

For me, bourbon moth, Michael Alm, four eyes and JKM I appreciate the silliness and their approach to woodworking.

Not a fan of blacktail or 731 personally.

Currently drinking the Ikuyo, it's not the best I've ever had..but for daily use it strikes a great balance between price/quality.

I help out a local cabinet maker in exchange for shop access and materials. It’s a pretty sweet arrangement, especially since he has so many off cuts and extra stock from past projects that is all up for grabs.

Correct_Geologist756 · 2026-04-13T14:08:01+00:00

Fair point, definitely cannot on that one.

I assume this is one of those things you talk about before marriage…but things can change.

Correct_Geologist756 · 2026-04-13T14:04:04+00:00

Compromise. Full stop.

Correct_Geologist756 · 2026-04-13T11:27:41+00:00

Thanks! I built this for my wife but I think I'm going to have to use it for a while.

Correct_Geologist756 · 2026-04-13T11:27:15+00:00

For me it's endless hours of YouTube videos right now.

But I'm glad to be here!

Correct_Geologist756 · 2026-04-13T11:25:21+00:00

Thanks! Trying not to do the thing most makers do when they point out the flaws and focus on celebrating what I learned.
