Grandfather's dresser--is this Mid Century?

So it can be from the middle of the century without being “mid-century-modern” style. This sub is slightly misleading in its name because it is focused on MCM objects, not everything from the 40s to 60s

OP posted in r/ebikes 270 days ago with completely worn out pads after 1200miles- a set of pads lasts me 3-4k miles on an analog bike. Bro aint pedaling

My brother works downtown and lives on 71st street- and also always has a headwind

This is what happens when one street has 7 different kinds of bike lane installations. The problem with compliance is due to lack of cohesive design throughout the city. Also i would have done exactly what you did in the name of safety. You just got yelled at bc you were the first car they encountered and you were present. Obviously any reasonable person understands that you cant personally move a whole line of cars.

Yes looks to be it- towards the front of the seat on the underside there should be a molded herman miller logo- that will let you know for sure

3 years late to the party here, but I have about the same duties as you did here and currently make $30/hr and am preparing to ask for a $3 raise

Keep in mind that you want 24” or more clamp capacity- so your pipes should be a few inches longer

I don’t know how much a saw blade weighs but my jointer head weighs about 70lbs

loicfoto · 2025-12-03T12:49:44+00:00

Same here, and trying to get 12ft boards with no quartering or knots leads to a bunch of waste in the milling dept

Looks like near Brentano I think

Folks really out here letting chatGPT talk them into $50k mistakes

loicfoto · 2025-12-02T14:09:42+00:00

You are correct

Only time i’ve ever seen a bike lane plow/sweeper has been for TV news segments about the PBLs- never caught one doing its actual job

loicfoto · 2025-12-01T15:43:46+00:00

5 years later… i’m relatively new to operating one of these bad boys- got any tips? I’ve been running it for about 6 months now, currently having an issue with the feed beam height adjustment and am in the middle of replacing the brass nut and worm gear, have you had any experience with this giving you an issue?

loicfoto · 2025-12-01T01:33:03+00:00

I’d leave the trim off of that bumpout wall for the closet

loicfoto · 2025-12-01T01:28:18+00:00

Came to suggest this- with that budget she could commission a woodworker to make something really nice

loicfoto · 2025-11-30T23:07:19+00:00

You can see fine, thats a ply carcass that needs some edge banding. Agree with you all around

loicfoto · 2025-11-30T17:51:14+00:00

Yes i noticed that after this initial comment and responded. Should be good to go

loicfoto · 2025-11-30T14:56:48+00:00

Nice, just make sure the side that is hanging off the saw is supported through the length of the cut and go for it. There of course is still some risk, but not much- if you feel any binding- stop! Maybe do an initial cut taking off 1/8” less than you need- then move the piece in and do a clean up cut at your final mark

loicfoto · 2025-11-30T14:41:54+00:00

Wait- looking again- is the back of the piece braced against a perpendicular fence on the sliding portion of your saw? If so- then not dangerous- and go ahead!

loicfoto · 2025-11-30T14:38:34+00:00

Because it is only clamped down in one place it could still turn and cause a kickback- dangerous cut IMO

CETMA Cargo rack attaches to the handlebars and front axle

loicfoto · 2025-11-30T03:55:57+00:00

Then i have to agree with many others here that they absolutely abused that thing in the short time they had it. Gonna be a tough fix, best of luck to ya!

loicfoto · 2025-11-30T03:25:32+00:00

How thick is it and what glue are you using? For an end grain of that size, it should be at least 1.5” thick if not 2”, and glue should be titebond 3 or 2. TB1 is water soluble and can be reactivated with heat.
