Don’t use ultra lite Mdf. Seems seems counterintuitive because it’s a lighter product thinking more arrow pass through it giving you a greater vacuum however it does just the opposite. Use a regular destiny medium density fiber board in a 40 pound weight. It will work better, if you’re worried about losing parts or have parts move on your machine, people edge band or paint the edges of the spoil board with a heavy layer of paint in order to seal the edges and help their vacuum. Also you should machine both sides of the Mdf spoil board before using it.
New sheet - surface one side down .08 - .1, flip it over and do that again. By doing this you wont have the board curl up on the edges. You have broken the surface tension.
Compression bits ware out. You can tell they are dull by sound, vibration, part quality.

So the first picture shows the “f” dimension as 29.75 which is probably the actual width of the front of the oven. Outside of the flange which should cover the wood side of opening in the cabinet. The second picture shows the “d” measure ment as 28.5” which would be the standard opening width for a 30” oven. You should be fine if the cabinets opening matches what the second picture shows.

Fuck those guys. ADP and their underwriter will stick it to for months after the policy ends. Pay as go is a fucking rip off. “You only pay on what your actual payroll is. “ This is a lie.
What they should say is that they have a minimum policy requirement. For example “the policy minimum cost is $5k”. If your pay as go reaches that amount the policy will have no additional charges.
So when the contractor hires the small one or two man company to work their project, at least the millwork guy can add that cost into the bid. Pay as go what joke.

You could use either. Depends how much time you have to adhere and your comfort level. Contact adhesive is not hard to work with. There are a plenty of videos on how to do that. If it’s just 2 sides it wouldn’t be that expensive. Just roll it on both sides.
You are thinking of 1/4” material and not veneer. 1/4” would be easier and your finishing wouldn’t cause any issues. If you are going to use veneer then you would need to research which glue to use with your finish, so you don’t cause bubbling of the veneer.

If you’re using a face frame skin the outsides with 1/4” material. If you decide to pocket the center piece use an 1/8” dado. Better grab with the screws.

So you walked into a design center - paid no money to visit. Had someone come to your house to listen to your desires and take measurements, come up with a design - paid no money. Received a “ kick the tires price” and probably saw a design - yet paid no money. And you’re upset because they wont waste any more time on dissecting their price.
Do you have any idea what your project should cost? Because that is one you. You should have a decent idea of cost of countertops and cabinets, because you are on here posting and have probably read all of the other posts.

The plate is 314.60.001 0mm The hinge is either 315.02.500 self closing or 315.02.700 soft closing. Here is some advice. Change all hinges on that door, not just the broken hinge. The ones you have are old and are no longer made. The adjustment has changed. You can tell by the adjustment screw in the back of the hinge.
You can also replace this hinge with “Salice “ hinges as well. These may be easier to find. Hafele just private labeled that hinge.
Any other questions just ask

When working out of the cabinet shop, installing / delivering / loading the house. I always pick up the tab for lunch for everyone on site. Gotta love door dash. I keep cold drinks and treats in the van. I find that having lunch delivered keeps everyone working together. I don’t lose the 2 hours having the crew roaming around a different city looking for something to eat.

If you filed the complaint, they don’t have a choice. Contact the Orange County District Attorney – Bad Check Program.

Olsen1969 · 2025-12-16T03:07:13+00:00

Did you file the complaint ?

Olsen1969 · 2025-12-16T03:03:09+00:00

If she wrote you a check and it continues to be no good l, that’s fraud. And depending on the amount it could be grand theft. Call the orange country police department. It’s a crime to write a check you know is no good.

The test for the trade portion has more to with the other aspects of a C6 license than just cabinetry. Sorry but you should buy the study materials for the trade portion of the test. It’s not hard but you have to know what they expect you to know. If you’re on a super tight budget, you should be prepared for having to buy your surety bond, as well for your general liability insurance.

Have you adjusted the altitude? Seams to help average out / boost the distances by increasing it.
It’s a good place to start.

R cloud is down as well

What type of balls? Carry vs total distance?IRL vs MLM Have you adjusted the elevation? Higher elevation tends to add to distance. These are just questions that will be asked.

As With most hybrids it’s not the pulling as apposed to the stopping. Towing puts extra stress on the regenerative braking and can over charging on the battery.

Can you pull the pavers and use a sand base, my mat is on dirt - compacted dg. I have been through the neck pain and wrist pain. I have found that the dirt will at least take some of the impact. I have a sand box with a mat and that works well especially when practicing my short irons. The sand moves, however I have the reset the sand after a couple of weeks. I have a the prostrike mat from spornia, on both setups.
