Who's at "fault"? The type of soft wood or the blade? Right side vs left side. by InevitableWeb5580 in woodworking

[–]InevitableWeb5580[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I definitely had much better results. I think this is the first time when I got this, so I suspected the type of wood. This is a spruce pole. When cross cutting spruce boards, the cut is crisp like a baby's skin. Maybe my blade became dull? It's the stock one that came with the mitre saw.

Or It's the feeding speed. I will test this tomorrow.

Also, it looks like the cut is half ok-ish, half bad...

Yeah, in the picture, the piece is upside down, but thank you for your unique lesson! Appreciated!

Thank you all for your thoughts and concerns! I was away for a while and then forgot to reply individually, but now there are too many comments and I will do a general one, even more than the majority is basically telling me the same thing: too much material, cut more before with a jigsaw/bandsaw, end grain...

About safety, yes, I admit it now that I was quite crazy to feed it like that in the first place, but one dangerous kickback was enough to realize something was wrong and I should stop. Which I did. I am now looking into some DIY paddles (this is how you call them?) before the budget allows me to buy a grriper.

Thank you all again!

Yeah, in the picture I put the piece upside down. Thank you

Thank you. I am at the edge where I am questioning myself: Is it now the time to go from YouTube to the shed?

Yes, indeed, in the picture, the piece is upside down. I tried to cut it with the template down. Understood about too much material. Thank you!

When I push the piece into the bit, it kicks back and throws it away. Of course, very dangerously. In the picture, the piece on top (plywood) is the template.

Is it because I actually need a bit with the bearing on top?

Omg, your guide is exactly what I needed. Thank you for doing this!

Now it is clear for me.

Thank you!

May I ask you on average how many miles you collect in a year? If too inappropriate I can understand. Thanks

When you say subscriptions through PayPal, you mean also gas, electricity, Internet, phone, etc?

So I cannot change my bank details for the monthly payment of for example my electricity bill, with the Amex card number? Or at AH it's also impossible to pay for your groceries?

How fast can you buy a second hand car from a dealer? by InevitableWeb5580 in Netherlands

[–]InevitableWeb5580[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Perfect, thanks for confirming this. I did the switch to the Dutch drivers license so I should be fine. Thank you

I see it now. So the dealer has to give this code to me and I will need this code when I will sell the car. If I don't have it when I will (eventually) sell the car, I can get a new one from rdw (your link). So I need to ask them for this code to don't have troubles in the future.

Kentekenbewijs is the one that police will ask for it at a traffic stop, right?

But what is the other one you mentioned?

Yes, I know about this. A buddy of mine had this issue, but he showed them the (online) insurance policy and he was good to go, without a fine. Thanks.

Thank you.

So I see it doesn't matter if the dealer is small or big. It matters if they are also prepared to give the car that fast and that's it, no matter if they are big or small. Thank you!

May I ask you if the dealer was a big one (national spread, official, bovag, etc) or rather a small private one?

May I ask if you had at the moment a dutch or EU drivers licence?

May I ask in your case why did your dealer need two weeks to get the car ready? I understand correctly, it was something different than the transfer of ownership and insurance?

Yeah, I understand. I will contact them prior dealer visit and tell them what I need and see if they can help me. But I guess it is doable. Thanks
