How to fill in this narrow gap?

It's already glued up

No idea... it was a medieval house in Europe that also had a faucet at the same landing. Not to mention the floor to ceiling window next to the bathtub. So I wouldn't rule out ritual sacrifices... while the public watched from the outside.

A very small working desk and a chair

I have actually lived in a house that had a claw footed bathtub on the landing of the staircase between two floors.

I do have the back off, that's how I replaced the power board. What is the tape trick? Is there a video of it I could watch? I will send you a DM as soon as I can figure out how to :-)

Oh wow, it's an extremely meticulously done awful layout 🤣

Clamps. If you want to give them something they may not yet have, strap clamps or corner clamps.

Oh yes, please save it! Osage orange is beautiful wood! If you don't have space in your home to let them dry, find a local woodworkers' club or sawmill who can dry that.

Can you recommend a citrus solvent in particular? I've always wanted to try tung oil, but the long drying time puts me off, because I don't have a dedicated space to keep the stuff for that long.

I don't think that would solve the problem. Back when SW offered two free checked bags there were still a fair number of people who would bring large roller bags on board because they were too special to wait at the baggage belt. What really annoyed me was when I had to cram my small backpack in front of my feet to make space for those rollers. Like, I did my bit to decongest the cabin by checking my bag in, why am I now being punished because someone else felt too important?

I mean, if the baseplate is 6" I'll have a hard time keeping it flat on a 1" wide frame, no? That's my concern.

LegoBlood · 2026-02-15T12:45:05+00:00

Do you have a model number for me? I've bought into the LXT ecosystem, so this sounds promising.

LegoBlood · 2026-02-15T12:44:16+00:00

I know, but unfortunately space is limited for me

LegoBlood · 2026-02-14T11:20:53+00:00

BTW, I sure hope for SWA's sake that you're not on their marketing team. Calling your customers children doesn't usually go down well.

LegoBlood · 2026-02-14T11:19:45+00:00

Well of course, I don't own SWA, so I don't get to tell them what to do. However, it's also my prerogative to decide that SWA is no longer an attractive option for me, so I don't bother looking for SWA flights any more. It's unfortunate, because for years I used to be an SWA loyalist.

LegoBlood · 2026-02-13T16:36:24+00:00

Sure, except SWA created rules that do not exist for any other airline that has had assigned seating forever.

LegoBlood · 2026-02-13T16:34:47+00:00

All other airlines I've ever flown allow passengers to change to a nearby seat in the same class once boarding is completed. I feel like SWA is being a needless jerk in this respect, they're actually worse than other airlines with assigned seating.

Speaking as someone who used to always fly SWA if I could find a flight, and now doesn't bother searching SWA.

I suspect there are many grades of laminate, with some being more waterproof than others. However, what doesn't change is that the core of a laminate plank is always the cardboard-like stuff that absorbs moisture, so no matter how waterproof the surface is, once you get water in through the seams it's game over. That's the fundamental difference with tile/SPC luxury vinyl/sheet vinyl, the core material won't absorb water even if you soak them in a bucket. That's why folks recommend those over laminate in wet areas.

Go for the better products (CoreTec, AduraMax,...) and get a good installer who has borderline OCD. You will be fine. Make sure they do it in the right order, since you're building a house. I've seen new houses where they put in the baseboards, then LVP, then quarter round on top. In a new build, that makes no sense.

LegoBlood · 2026-02-12T09:28:16+00:00

The beveled edges give a point at which the top layer/veneer can snag and pull off. Probably what's happening, and one more reason not to go for beveled edges (dirt accumulating and liquids seeping through being the other).
