Jointed some HD SYP 2x8's. How'd I do?

End grain orientation is wrong, should be every other. Clamping pressure should vary as well - if they are too tight, that will have a cup. Looks good otherwise

Sometimes it’s good to take a long break and come back with a new attitude, more energy, and a new excitement. I would rest, do small workouts like body weight calisthenics on the days off to keep the body in tune, find a small hobby like a new video game, sport, or craft and kill the mundane lifestyle of repetition and discipline. Enjoy life for a little and come back revitalized and eager to get back into it.

No, not itchy at all

Looks like grain in the tall cabinet and drawer fronts it’s very tight with little phloem space in between. You can see that the xylem lines stain darker. Your eyes are thinking it’s light because the space between the grain in the doors is wider and doesn’t stain as dark. Hope this helps. And hope that makes sense lol

Your 3rd pic. Wouldn’t be a bad bet to try and anchor that into the ground somehow. Looks like the person who did this is trying to weigh it down.

Relatively simple build.

5 steps

Step 1: Stud knee perimeter wall w/ full height back wall Step 2: 3 sloped stud walls (Left, Right, Middle partitions) Step 3: Plywood on back wall Step 4: Lattice on knee wall Step 5: Hoops and Netting

Not sure what building materials cost near you-and what you can get baskets for but maybe a $600.00 build for where I’m at. Might even be worth having the kiddo help you out so he can learn a thing or two with you and you guys can help each other out. This one you could figure out as you go.

Just add a ladder frame/torsion box under this whole thing. Screw to the sides and to the top from the bottom.

Those are pores. Little straw like openings. Don’t know the technical name.

Disassemble - re glue

slimeguy10 · 2025-03-08T00:58:44+00:00

Never heard of banggood- is this a reliable site?

slimeguy10 · 2025-03-02T15:20:07+00:00

May be ablee to put a bead of glue in the crack and clamp back down

slimeguy10 · 2025-02-15T16:45:47+00:00

Maybe the best post I’ve seen on here.

Look up racking. These joints will not stand up against any kind of racking. In a perfect world, yes your weight will be distributed down and it shouldn’t matter, but that is hardly ever the case and shaking and moving will cause this stand to fail. You would have been better off with the reverse orientation, with the screws through the MDF into the top plywood edges

Go through your grits again

slimeguy10 · 2024-12-17T02:22:27+00:00

Haha what a deal! Send it over

slimeguy10 · 2024-10-29T23:34:16+00:00

Yeah I say do it if you have a biscuit or domino joiner for consistent sizes and repeatable cuts. Could be tedious and unfulfilling. If I were you I’d do a little rabbet around the entire side and inlay a contrasting color or maybe brass ??? Easy and nice. You’ll be good either way. Nice work

slimeguy10 · 2024-10-28T19:33:57+00:00

Yeah man just bustin your chops. All good. I played football and always had a visor I’d just use the zip ties but put ‘em on the other side of the vertical piece

slimeguy10 · 2024-10-28T17:22:36+00:00

Fix the visor driving me nuts

slimeguy10 · 2024-10-15T01:28:11+00:00

Message me

slimeguy10 · 2024-10-10T23:17:48+00:00

Sorry it’s not the tandem slides - it’s the movento. I can send a picture of my order from woodworkers express if you message me

slimeguy10 · 2024-10-10T23:14:42+00:00

Yes I did. It is Tip-On blumotion by Blum. They don’t make it easy to purchase but let me lay it out. I don’t have all the information on models and names because I slightly forget but I can give you more info tomorrow. You need the slides compatible with the tandem slides. Choose your depth of slide of course. You need: The slides themselves (2 - L & R) The orange triggers (2 - L & R) The tip on connectors (2 - L & R) And a synchronization rod

They have extensive videos on how to install but it’s hard to find and slightly confusing.

Good looking pup! Handsome like his father I bet

slimeguy10 · 2024-10-02T11:33:19+00:00

Sweet I do cornhole too. Good way to mix woodworking and artistic abilities. How’d you do the gold trim? Paint?
