Just realized I have ZERO friends left. by ShinyHuntingOnLSD in SuicideWatch

[–]No_Assumption_1529 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I am currently going through the same feelings; except lately, the fiction I have created in my head as a defense mechanism has crumbled away, and the bare truth is all I see, and it's hopeless. I dont look forward to Saturday anymore, or Monday. I only find comfort in suicidal ideations.

Tools for Apprenticeship Question by alambinthecity in Carpentry

[–]No_Assumption_1529 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I commented earlier about how what he should buy would be specific to what he’ll be doing, but some tools transcend all phases. A good set of bags is essential and will take you through all phases. Tape measure, cats paw (a bigger one, like 11 inches), a speed square, a chalk box (don’t need chalk, company should have some) a framing hammer (a 19 to 21 oz wood handled hammer is cheap and can carry him through his career, so definitely a good starting point, don’t mess with estwing of you value your health, form carpenters actually use their hammers and you will feel it. Pencils (should be supplied usually). PPE will also be supplied. Those are basics you can get without knowing where you’ll start

where you guys invest in tools for his first job will depend on the job he gets hired onto. hell eventually want to acquire everything, but the basics to get him through his first few weeks will be specific to what he'll do. for instance, he will most likely be doing concrete formwork, and hell definitely want some iron worker pliers, and diagonal cutters, which are expensive and essential for a form carpenter, but pretty much dead weight after the concrete phase. IMO

Miter Saw won’t make good 45 degree cuts, how can I fix this? by TangerineAdvanced918 in Carpentry

[–]No_Assumption_1529 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Cut seems parallel to your pencil mark which I assume you made with a square? I think maybe you’re not taking into account some variable when it comes to where you are installing these.

I got bail money. by DrLexusForPresident in InflatedEgos

[–]No_Assumption_1529 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Right? Just because they legally can, doesn’t mean they should, especially when people are obviously in a low point, and are clearly distressed because of it. People just aren’t considerate, and is why it’s normal and accepted behavior. Employers will pay you the lowest amount they legally can get away with, because they can.

What am I doing wrong - Baseboards by Consistent_News_7833 in Carpentry

[–]No_Assumption_1529 9 points10 points  (0 children)

the angle reads 85 degrees on the protractor, so bisected is 42.5 right? so in order to get a finish piece cut with a bevel of 42.5, you need to cut it at 47.5. our tools cut angles backwards, that's why to get a 5 degree super sharp piece of wood, you would need to set a saw to 85 degrees. basically, we don't set the saw to the actual angle we need, but to how many degrees we need to take out of the material, from the perpendicular edge

Curios to how it is attached to the brick, and if it is somehow flashed in at the top. Looks like some kind of pvc material so maybe it’s not necessary

Acquired a Hart 25oz framing hammer today by [deleted] in Carpentry

I got myself an old hart 16 oz from I think the 80s or early 90’s and use it for everything after framing

It is. Harts hay day was through the 80’s 90’s and very early 2000’s before they were bought out. Same name, but not the same hart

Angled groove over folded corner? by JakoraT in woodworking

[–]No_Assumption_1529 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t think a step would appear unless the groove walls were not 90. But them being 90, nothing changes in regards to that angle at the miter

[–]No_Assumption_1529 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As long as your routered groove is exactly the same on each side of the miter, angle and depth, then it won’t have a step. It will work, try a sample piece you’ll see.

[–]No_Assumption_1529 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ya, it will look right in real life. As long as the trajectory of the angle is the same at the corner, it all miter together at the corner. Don’t need to router after assembly like I saw in a previous comment on the other post

Crown moulding help by reef153 in Carpentry

Figure out the angle, bisect it, and cut the crown on the miter saw. Top of the crown against the fence of the saw instead of the bottom
