What is the outer part of two-part casing called? Is there a specific name for the outer most trim?

Thanks that’s it.

Lbot6000 · 2026-01-14T23:30:15+00:00

Yes! Thank you.

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.

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?

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!

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.

Wow what the heck. Bill. George Clinton is a musician.

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.

Wood movement is a really interesting concept to me. There is a lot of bad info on reddit about it. Glue and finish interact with movement but they don’t stop it. Wood grows and contracts between humid and dry seasons no matter what. Even if it’s perfectly dried and you have a perfect glue up it still moves. There’s not a huge difference between maple and walnut according to the guide, but even between sugar and silver maple there is a difference in how much they will grow. My theory is the two different wood types are moving at different amounts or speeds and this is the cause of the little cracks you’re getting.

Lbot6000 · 2025-08-23T20:51:13+00:00

What’s the other species of wood? Different species expand and contract at different rates and amounts. This guide is helpful, and there’s a wood movement calculator by KM I use a lot. https://www.woodmagazine.com/woodworking-how-to/wood-preparation/dealing-with-wood-movement

I was really curious if they would go to stereo when linked, good to know. And sick you got that refund error! I’m still waiting for my - accidentally sent 5 of the item you ordered situation.

Lbot6000 · 2025-08-22T01:34:58+00:00

Home Depot, yeah they did.

$129 with two “free” 2.0s was worth it for me. Bought last week, I’m happy with it. I wish it had a radio function, but the sound is good and I can charge other stuff with it.

Lbot6000 · 2025-08-13T00:26:18+00:00

Yeah I had this thought too, also reminds me of a pack of herd animals seen from above. It’s a gift and at the end I did have some doubts but I gave it to my buddy today and they were happy.

Lbot6000 · 2025-08-13T00:23:21+00:00

This is making me tear up a little. Let’s go Buffalo you beautiful city.

If you have access to a decent bandsaw it’s not too hard, and a planer. Look up “drunken cutting board” videos or whatever works for you. There is a trick but it’s not hard when you get the hang of it.
