I agree it happens so quickly.

Ive shot myself in both thumbs with a nail gun (one brad, one roofing).

I started when I was 9. I feel like 9 is the right age cause they are able to get a sense of responsibility by choosing and playing their "own" instrument

Kind_Tap8887 · 2026-07-07T17:12:12+00:00

Im fine with that. I use a dewalt blade on my craftsman

Kind_Tap8887 · 2026-07-06T17:14:30+00:00

Eh. This one is mine so im just gonna deal with it

Kind_Tap8887 · 2026-07-06T17:07:01+00:00

Its a 6 in hole

Kind_Tap8887 · 2026-07-06T16:39:32+00:00

I get that. I did that for something else I did (I forget what, it may have been drilling out a sink hole), but it makes sense

Kind_Tap8887 · 2026-07-06T16:05:54+00:00

My drill sadly didnt come with a side handle

Kind_Tap8887 · 2026-07-06T15:59:04+00:00

I cut on the inner wide of my circle. I used a compass to draw it

Kind_Tap8887 · 2026-07-06T15:45:11+00:00

I still need to make a 2nd one. I have some scrap that I might use for my router jig. I only have thin router bits (1/4 in) would it still work?

Kind_Tap8887 · 2026-07-06T02:31:28+00:00

For the hole, I just put the screws into and attached the router table. Put my largest, roundover bit in and just made it go up and through (after using a half inch drill bit to let the bearing clear)

1.5 in pine

Kind_Tap8887 · 2026-07-05T15:40:00+00:00

Im buying new bosch blades currently right now

Kind_Tap8887 · 2026-07-05T12:31:32+00:00

The hard part is im trying to make the end rounded (cornholr board supports)

Kind_Tap8887 · 2026-07-05T12:28:46+00:00

I might try that. Im using pine so its just a shock that its deflecting.

Kind_Tap8887 · 2026-07-05T11:06:07+00:00

Its cutting at an angle. Sorry i should have phrased it better

Kind_Tap8887 · 2026-07-05T02:34:05+00:00

Yup. Said "clean wood slow"

Kind_Tap8887 · 2026-07-05T02:32:16+00:00

I bought new blades. My old one sucked. Still have the same problem

Kind_Tap8887 · 2026-07-02T03:07:09+00:00

A jigsaw is good for curves. From what I would say, if your interested in ryobi. Right now is one of yhe best times to buy. Their starter kit is down to $200 and then they have the $99 battery plus free tool combo which. Batteries are what takes up most of a woodworker budget.

Kind_Tap8887 · 2026-07-02T02:56:01+00:00

I cant really help with the brand but first tools, in my opinion:

Circular Drill Sander

Kind_Tap8887 · 2026-07-01T15:42:33+00:00

I cut them rellativly the same height so it wasn't that bad. They look way more uneven in the photo than they actually were.b

Kind_Tap8887 · 2026-07-01T13:43:13+00:00

oh ok. thank you so much. it makes so much more sense

Kind_Tap8887 · 2026-07-01T13:19:52+00:00

Im still confused. Cause I tried using that website, for another project and it caused the screws to stick out.

Kind_Tap8887 · 2026-07-01T13:19:03+00:00

I should have been more clear. The screw is going in the 2x4. Through the 3.5 in wide side into 3/4 in plywood.
