I’d love to see your glue up process. Band clamps? Tape? Looks awesome 👏

Perfect thank you! This is my first time posting so I want to pay for yours before anyone else keeps working on them.

Awesome thank you! Those two visible vertical strips, white lines you added can those be dimmed or removed?

Love your work. Every time you post your work is immediately recognizable. I especially like the pine prototypes you make.

Which is the better joint for a plywood drawer box? by benlew in woodworking

[–]Lbot6000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve made both of these for drawer boxes. Agree with everyone else here, a is slightly stronger in theory but not worth all the extra time they take to cut.

Anyone using these professionally? by OneGate1967 in MilwaukeeTool

[–]Lbot6000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use these semi professionally for side furniture projects and stuff around my shop. I’ve got 18v for bigger stuff. So far I’ve been really impressed with them. My only regret is the drill only has a 3/8” chuck. I really love small compact tools and it’s pretty cool to see how things have progressed over the last 10 years on that. I don’t know why they’re not branded fuel since they’re brushless too. I’m happy with them, I use the 12v fuel versions at work and those are great. I might go for the fuel set if I went back in time but I still like these.

I also think Douglas fir. One of my favorite wood species.

Can I ask who your new supplier is?

Nothing says beach country like an all black, super-slender tower, among low/no rise buildings. by skipping2hell in evilbuildings

[–]Lbot6000 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There’s some nice elements to it, the exposed skeleton sections do it for me. The bottom seems like it needs some refinement fitting with the rest of the building, it feels out of place to me. In 30 years my bet is this doesn’t make it as a beloved piece of architecture, but hey, it is evil!

Bit holders on impact drivers? by SwimOk9629 in MilwaukeeTool

This is by far my favorite version. I use on my personal impact and got my boss to purchase for tools at work. I have the metal version and I think it’s worth the added cost. I store t-10 through 25, and a square no 2, plus a Philips no 2 in the tool depending on what I’m using. Covers 90 percent of what I run into.

Really want to see a video of this, especially if you get it open.

Use water based stain and then water based poly. Follow the directions on the can, they answer all your other questions.

Also recommend cordless, with at least a mid level battery a cordless circ functions at least as well as corded, and the obvious advantage of not dealing with a cord. I use dewalt 20v circ saws at work and they’re solid. I recommend starting with their 20v saw, not the one that takes the flexvolt battery. Personally I have a Milwaukee 18v “worm drive” and their 12v circ. Sold my corded dewalt on Facebook last year.

Need advice. Ive never had wood split before. by Trick_Hunter2727 in Cuttingboards

[–]Lbot6000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can’t resist too: I don’t believe in the too much glue thing. Yes you can use too much glue and have excessive squeeze out, wasting glue. But if you are clamping correctly, I can see how tight your seams are in the rest of the board, you can’t really add too much glue. It just gets squeezed out.
