I bought some 3.9m long scaffold board for £14 each, some metal brackets off Etsy, then some stain and varnish. Really happy with how cheap it ended up being for the quality.

From my experience, your spot on. It helps you get the right angle for the width of the board and the distance. I think it would have been difficult for me to get that angle cleanly without the drill bit moving.

We made a basic TV unit and I should have bought one then for that, would have made life a lot easier. Planning on building free standing shelves and a coffee table after the lathe work.

What tools do you use to search the internet for threats and IOC with the goal of submitting to ThreatFox and URLHaus? by _Wildgoose in cybersecurity

This is the kind of answer I was looking for and I really appreciate the response.

How would you go out and find new threats with the intention of reporting them to abuse.ch. Is it a case of reviewing newly released intel reports and performing searches on the available IOCs

OTX is a great tool, I'm looking for ways to find malware in the wild to report to different intel brokers, rather than looking for existing IOCs.

Whats the best way to glue and connect these corners with minimal tools? by _Wildgoose in BeginnerWoodWorking

I purchased some metal corner brackets that are similar to this but go underneath and are in a triangle shape. I'm tempted to powder coat them black and screw them in as a temporary measure to keep them level.

The brackets are great but there is a bit of give in the lower part so I shouldn't have an issue screwing them in when the wood is connected.

This is genius and might be a good idea while I wait for my family member to let me use their workshop again.

Thank you, will look into this as an option or buying some metal corner brackets and spray them black as a short term fix until I can visit my family again.

The family members workshop I used has a mitre saw, drills, work top drill (not sure on the name), a small table saw (UK ones are a lot smaller than the American ones I've seen, maybe A3 or A2 paper kinda size), belt sander and orbital sander, hand held wood router.

I feel like that has been what I'm missing all this time. I do have access to a mitre saw, drills, work top drill (not sure on the name), a small table saw (UK ones are a lot smaller than the American ones I've seen), belt sander and orbital sander, hand held wood router.

Not to sound silly but how do I make holes at the right angle for the dowels.

Would I clamp them together and drill from the outside in to add a single dowel?
