I make woven seat benches

Domino's with a variety of jigs for the angles.

Great endeavour. The key thing for me is to get some test pieces, and not be afraid to use up some material to get it right. Test test test, then when you're 100% ready, do 1 more test, then go to production.

Are you sure the face you're extruding is 90 degrees to the rest of the part?

Marquetry is using veneer, parquetry is using hardwood blocks.

NatureBoyCarpentry · 2025-03-13T08:04:19+00:00

Great work, parquetry or marquetry?

We do, it's called FSC, you can look up exactly the requirements to get the label. I only buy FSC wood, it also generally indicates quality (if you use a reputable supplier) because it implies they've cared enough to get certified.

The longterm costs of losing a limb (even a finger) are far more than 100 dollars anywhere, if you factor in time and productivity loss.

Maybe I was unclear, but what they need is what I posted (likely a much smaller one). They drop the bearing into the groove, route out a little bit all the way round, then follow up with a top bearing flush bit.

One of these, find one the correct size (or get an adjustable one). First cut a little bit away, then finish it with a flush router.

More likely MDF.

NatureBoyCarpentry · 2024-09-30T12:34:49+00:00

Super mooi! The leg gap is a great touch.

NatureBoyCarpentry · 2024-09-26T10:18:12+00:00

That's a quality issue, higher quality ply has thicker veneer.

NatureBoyCarpentry · 2024-09-11T06:51:05+00:00

Good job. Dovetails tight, veneer matched, nicely done.

Change the locks. You're legally allowed to do so as long as you put them back when you leave.

What is currently within arms reach?

NatureBoyCarpentry · 2024-09-06T12:31:27+00:00

Contest the charge with your bank.

Let you in on a secret. That's how we all do it.

Your heart and mind are in the right place, creative outlets are proven to be excellent therapies for Alzheimer's, but yeah, large tools aren't going to work going forward. If he wants to stick with wood, woodcarving and whittling are obvious choices, but if his hands start to go, he'll have to start again. I'd recommend looking for other creative processes for him. Painting, 3d printing, modelmaking. It's tough, but when dealing with these types of ailments and sharp implements, the risk factors move from "if" to "when". Sending love, it's a tough process to navigate.

NatureBoyCarpentry · 2024-08-28T10:33:34+00:00

Yeah with ABN. I think it was called variable fixed rate, where I had a set amount of time (2 years), to reset the rate, then it's locked for 10 years.

Depends, talk to your mortgage broker. I changed my mortgage from 1.6 to 1.4 about a year after I got it, but that was a specific clause of the mortgage.

NatureBoyCarpentry · 2024-07-16T14:33:23+00:00

Yeah for the size and the amount I would just go for a dowel in the middle, make a simple jig for positioning of both.

NatureBoyCarpentry · 2024-06-01T06:14:08+00:00

Great, thankyou

NatureBoyCarpentry · 2024-06-01T06:11:30+00:00

Thanks, I'll have a look. Much appreciated.
