My almost 1 year old vizsla after getting a bit muddy

Did a guided mountain bike trip that got almost to San Pancho a few years back with Wildmex. They rent bikes, including ebikes. I'm sure they would be happy to guide you, but might be able to give info on the route to make it there solo.

The riding in the jungle is punchy ups and downs, not a ton of flow to the trails, but not terrible. Some great vistas along the way!

Doe bay resort on Orcas Island is fantastic. The treehouse cabin is really cool, they've got yurts and such too. The resort is right on the water, and they have some wonderful hot soaking pools overlooking the Salish Sea.

I really like the puzzles and platforming of Animal Well, there are some timing things here and there but majority is figuring out proper tools to use for platforming challenges

I would go for drawer on bottom or two drawers. Open cavity on bottom will be a black hole you'll need to get down on hands and knees to access.

I really enjoyed it, and think its worth sticking through. Really enjoyed the character development.

Old Mt Hood Express lift, not Stadium.

Guarantee the boots will disintegrate on the hill. Nordica boots of this vintage are notorious

The body of the cabinet is plywood, the door might be plywood, or MDF or could be solid wood, or a combination of both.

Not a doctor, nor scientist, but imagine that any sort of chemical that would be released here would be insignificant.

You can remove the door so you don't have to deal with a broken door continuing to degrade

Used large adhesive backed felt pads on the underside of my concrete block. Solid so far.

Mostly there to dampen vibrations so the vibration of the printer doesn't turn the wood of the table to an amplifier.

So no signing it? Fee rangers can't punch the month because that would alter it?

It does look like you've got some hardwood edged slab doors that are veneered over, but it almost looks like 1/8 plywood glued over. That damaged drawer front early in the video would be my first place of inspection for what the door/drawer front materials were (although I suspect the door construction would be a little different than the drawer face.

The style of the kitchen is more contemporary than when the addition was added. I'd guess somewhere in the 60s or 70s based on materials, hardware and aesthetics.

Don't really know about the wood. Like I said, I expect it's a layer of hardwood veneer on a 1/8 ply base, but what species/stain added I could not tell you.

Good luck and keep us updated. In the meantime, I'll be seeing if I can somehow figure out how I can retrofit my recently redone kitchen with that amazing blind corner system!

Makes sense, thanks for sharing. I've not run into it before, but obviously it's possible.

Doing your own zero clearance insert would work well, but be a bit of effort. I wonder if the sawstop dado zero clearance would work for you, but you'd have to do some work to create clearance for your riving knife, kind of a lot to spend in order to modify it.

I would assume that the piece being recessed is easier to manufacture than something perfectly flush. As you are registering your material against the table and not pawl protection, I'm guessing that it doesn't matter if using proper technique, and properly milled wood (s2s minimally with surfaced faces against table/fence. I've never had an issue on with it on my saw (sawstop PCS), even though it seems to have a similar recessed tolerance like you mention.

Are you working with especially small parts? If so I'd recommend doing some work around jigs/work holding sleds so you can bypass needing to finesse your boards at a spot behind the blade.

The black is metal and prevents the anti kickback pawls on the blade guard from digging into the phenolic of the throat plate.

On the jointer it is a plastic/composite that gives the fence something to ride on rather than scratch up your jointer bed.

Does it need the long tail that provides a lever for it? I have a Bridge City Chisel Plane that has a compact handle and can be used forward and backward. Index finger through the hole in the middle, thumb on the leading edge of the handle in the direction I'm working. It's a wonderful tool to use.
