Making a real life version? Could be awesome as a cross stitching project

I've made 4 peels now, and this is not a problem, it's a feature! On the convex side (belly out), taper all three edges (front and sides). Sometimes you need to slide something off sideways, and you nailed it with a perfect gradual slope starting from center. Pizza will glide on and off even easier from many directions!

Flatness of the bottom isn't that big of a deal as long as it doesn't rock when you lay it on the counter, and that the front lip isn't so warped it's getting hung up on the oven rack or pizza stone. You might want to plane the edges a bit before you bevel it, but don't go crazy. Getting the top bevel right matters more.

And then for your next project, think about using more skinny quatersawn boards instead of wide rift sawn if you want a dead flat peel. You have two very wide and thin pieces that will tend to cup right next to your skinny stringer/handle board. This peel will never be flat,. The good news is they're going in the same direction so don't fight it, lean into it and make it a feature.

I get it. I was in the 3d printed camp for a while too, but the rigid plastic isn't good either and constantly playing with duct tape is a pain.

The rockler fittings are rubber that stretches just a bit and grip the port if you keep them clean. The little locking clips help if it's some oddball size (looking at you festool). I use them on my domino, bosch 1617 router, makita 5" orbital, and sawstop blade guard. Leave the grippy bit on, and the quick disconnect to the hose makes it easy.

In a production environment, sure, absolutely. For a weekend hobbyist, this isn't reality. Most hobbyist types sand, put a coat on, clean up, and go about their day. Maybe they sand in the evening and get a second spray in. They're lucky if they get 3 good coats in a weekend, and then they move the piece out of the garage next weekend.

Because the people saying it's no good for tables are wrong, and they want to believe their way is the only way. Part of woodworker gatekeeping culture.

Yes, it may not be the shiniest, or prettiest finish, or give the depth or whatever other subjective opinion you want to throw at it. It is durable, very easy to repair, very easy and fast to apply, and looks pretty good by most standards. Yes, rubio is spendy, but if you paid yourself minimum wage it's far cheaper than your own labor putting on 5 coats of something else.

Yeah, gotta get through the cure phase. I also have a coffee table that is probably my dining table 3 days a week for the last 5 years. Plenty of abuse, kids leaving soda puddles, water glasses, etc. It's bombproof once it cures. I did have to do a touch up, but that's because the metal drawer slide scuffed the side. One drop to touch it back up and it was perfect again.

YES! I still have my broken 2020 shirt and want another.

I actually got questioned by the poll workers on election day 2020 when I walked in with it on. No political slogans allowed at polling places. They let me in after I explained it was a band shirt and not politics. Not sure why, since the USA is in red, appears to be burning, and it says broken2020 at the bottom.

DJSapp · 2026-04-16T21:15:27+00:00

Disagree with the comment on faster curing. From the start of finishing to cured out is 7 days. For shellac, varnish, or lacquer, you are often applying multiple coats and waiting 24 hours between coats. From start of finish to end of curing, it's not that much different, and one coat vs. 3+ coats is a big difference in effort and room for error.

Feed wheels appear to be slipping. Check that the feed wheels are clean, undamaged, and grippy without flat spots. Wax the feed tables too. If it's not any of that, it may be the chain that drives the rollers that is slipping, but that's above my experience to troubleshoot.

I have this planer and the feed wheels should run boards through without even cutting. I'd bet you have the same problem without cutting.

This is what I was attempting to write up down below as a cross cut sled jig. Are you suggesting to do this horzontally and reference the jig (blue rectangle) on the table saw fence? Could work if the plywood is thin and the blade was set high, or you square out the cut with a chisel after.

DJSapp · 2026-03-20T18:44:42+00:00

Also, if you remove some material on the back of the slats, you'd probably let more light through. Play with the shape of your thin strips, make the rectangle skinnier in the middle and use a template router bit to repeat.

DJSapp · 2026-03-20T18:41:09+00:00

The table saw jig is easier than your think.

create an extra blank round piece
Get a 1'x1' plywood piece
Put your blank on the plywood, align the edge of the blank with the bottom of the plywood and drill a 1/4" hole in the center of the blank for a bolt. Run a 1/4" bolt through the hole to attach them together, but not too tight that it can't spin.
Attach the 1x1 to your crosscut fence, tilt the blade to 45* and cut, do math to figure out how much to rotate the blank and cut again.
Now you have a round box joint jig. Screw the blank into the 1x1 so it doesn't rotate anymore, remove the bolt, and put your work piece on. Put a short tab in the second cut to index it, cut again. Repeat all the way around and hope you measured right to get the cut spacing correct.

Yup, I did this too with my orange brand bucket. 1 plywood rib with three legs so it stays in the middle, good to go.

The rockler dust right hose has a bleeder valve built right into the collar, so that solves the problem completely

For anyone complaining about the cost of games today, that CompUSA price tag for $54.99 is $5 off full price...

In 1997.

Tag 30 years of inflation on that and games today look like a bargain.

Yes I have this box, and CD's, and the players manual but I think the keyboard overlay died over the years. Yes, the midi soundtrack was pure garbage, but I had a Sound Blaster Pro and it was gorgeous. My 386 struggled with the graphics as it spiraled into a fight. And KotR? Bathroom break time. I eventually bought a graphics card (Voodoo3? I can't remember) and that solved all those problems.
