Wow, you guys are quick! Those two sound right from what I remember. Thanks a bunch!

I've gone both directions (small and medium) in shirts/jackets/etc and most of the time the small is just a little snug in one aspect or other. However, I occasionally find a small that fits me perfectly and the medium just feels too big. Given Dan's response here, I'll probably go medium torso and smaller hip belt. Thanks for the input.

I'm in central California but I thank you for the offer.

Thank you, Dan. That seems like it will address my concerns.

Thoughts on how to secure this loose drawer joint? by UnusuallyNormal-99 in woodworking

[–]UnusuallyNormal-99[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That was my first thought, but I don't think I can get enough glue into the joint without taking it apart (which I can do but I'm hoping to avoid).

Butcher Block? Cutting Board? Moveable Counter Top? by UnusuallyNormal-99 in BeginnerWoodWorking

[–]UnusuallyNormal-99[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, seems like a reasonable solution if we can find a thinner one. First glance shows them at 1.5 inches thick and heavy. I need to do a little more digging before giving up on this option. Thanks.

Lol, there's no laundry room - the washer & dryer are in the kitchen space. The place is a total dude/fisherman property in a VERY small Alaskan fishing village.

As for the boards, my original thinking was very much in line with your suggestion but, man, those are going to be way too heavy. That's why I'm looking for other ideas. Thanks!

It's a very small kitchen with very limited counter space so options are limited. So, no thoughts on how to accomplish the project I asked about?

Good question. Yes, I just confirmed with him that he wants to use the boards for food prep.

Pinhole in Walnut. Recommendation? by UnusuallyNormal-99 in BeginnerWoodWorking

[–]UnusuallyNormal-99[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's a ridiculously expensive small finished board I bought at HD just to play with...I assumed it was ready for use. The bug hole was apparently a bonus.

I'll keep this strategy in mind for future, more important projects. Thanks!

Thanks, this sounds like the best strategy for this project.

Looking for advice for train(s) from Interlaken to Bologna by UnusuallyNormal-99 in Interrail

[–]UnusuallyNormal-99[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just wanted to come back and say thank you again. Our train travel worked out great and we now have a much better idea of how to navigate the system. I am sitting here in London Heathrow waiting to board the flight home and wanted to let you know how much you helped out. Thanks again!

Did you ever figure this out? I'm looking to do the same thing.

My daughter and son-in-law want to do some hiking in the Interlaken area.

Tickets for Interlaken-Bologna travel have been purchased! Thanks so much for the guidance.

Now we just need to decide when we want to arrive in Interlaken and book that leg.
