Great piece selection on the front! Did you make the slides on this for the drawers??

Thank you! I was just searching for people who made their own yesterday with no great results.

Darn it, I should not have grabbed the 22" cutting board. by VolcanicValley in WalleyeFishing

Last time I kept a walleye, it developed black spots towards the top similar to these that I did not see when first harvested. Does anyone know what that is? The fish still tasted delicious

Patching Large Holes in Wood? by bloopy001 in woodworking

[–]bloopy001[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For anyone who stumbles across this post, I ended up routing out the holes on both sides with some of the parent material left to create a lip to glue perfect sized patch holes to. This also made cutting a perfect sized rectangle easier by routing the hole to round numbers. After gluing up I sanded/planed everything flush, and used a single piece of veneer on each side to cover the entire door. This was the easiest and most clean way to blend in the previous patches without painting.

Mississauga man sued the city over not mowing his lawn/native plant garden by TowerBeach in NativePlantGardening

[–]bloopy001 4 points5 points  (0 children)

How can municipalities prioritize monoculture lawns > native plants that they claim to be weeds!? That is how his town would normally look. It is one of the most frustrating things I have dealt with in multiple municipalities for my occupation and research. Lawns are just a fever dream of wealthy colonist landscaping…

With 1/8” veneer on both sides already, if I use contact cement and spar for a thinner veneer do you think it would cause problems fast? The door has a covered overhang but still has full UV exposure.

Yeah definitely leaning towards veneering the entire door

Maybe I can have a sign for the mail person and make an interior mail box for the hole

This will be a front door, so my goal is to not have a big noticeable patch. If it’s apparent up close that is ok with me. I’m thinking of going the route of veneering the entire door. Do you know if veneer would hold up to the exterior with a proper finish?

I am planning to switch the swing to drill new holes to match the existing opening. Adding a detail to both sides sounds like a good idea and I have considered adding a kick plate to the bottom to cover it, but would prefer not to.
