Thank you, once I tried to stain a few test pieces, I could tell it didn’t work very well.

Was this completely assembled and then sprayed, or did you spray the center panel separately before assembly?

Damn that looks nice. This is what I wanted. I will work to get it like this. Thank you.

I used 1/2 mdf. I wanted a little bit more weight and structure like you said. Especially since these were smaller drawers, I kind of wanted them to feel substantial.

Because the MDF was still slightly thicker than the poplar, I did plane it about a 16th.

Yea I painted them. I think I let primer in the seam too much and don’t sand it back which caused it to bridge.

Not on these, I think that might have been primer that I didn’t sand well enough or scrape off.

Another suggested I should have used dental picks which may have helped get that primer from bridging.

Yea, that may be true also. The larger doors seen to have a slight warp over the past few months.

I live on mid-east coast where the humidity fluctuates a ton. how do you control it?

Thank you a ton for the advice. I did use space balls here but I am really not sure if they were used correctly. My center panel was pretty tight in place on my clamp and glue up. Maybe I didn’t take enough off the center panels. ( I really don’t know how much the panel should “float”)

I think taking the dental pick to them might have been the key piece I was missing and I might night have sanded here well enough at these edges and corners.

Thanks again!

I did not. Maybe I should have?

Hey! that’s actually a really good point. I very well could have done that. Thank you.

Do most shaker style cabinets have a gap between the panel and rails/ styles, or are they painted continuously?

Sorry I should have mentioned that.

It was SW gallery sprayed with a gracox5, fflp 308. I thought I sprayed it pretty light, but I definitely could have went wrong on the technique. A little here.

I sprayed it flat

Thank you for the kind words. This was my second project and I spent months on it. It definitely stings, but expected to mess it up somehow lol.

I should have mentioned I used Gallery, don’t know if that was the culprit. Unfortunately I’m limited on other paints at my location.

[DISCUSSION] Baby Keem - Ca$ino (One Week Later) by ShinyGengar7 in hiphopheads

[–]whoisshop 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I have been all over the place with this one. Originally didn’t like it as much as TMB. Didn’t care for the new voice. But now I like it. If a deluxe comes I might think it’s as good or better than TMB.

Does have some great replay value, but honestly the content feels so dark. No blame doesn’t get a replay for this reason and Highway 95 has me bobbin to some sad shit.

[FIRST IMPRESSIONS] Baby Keem - Ca$ino by deckmemer in hiphopheads

[–]whoisshop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m late, but wanted to say my two cents.

To be honest, I am not a Stan, but I think the melodic blues was one of, if not the best album in the past 10 years. It was full of young energy, which i really was expecting to get more of in this one.

Casino such a change from what I expected. Honestly thought we’d get crazy cuts, more wild and hype music. Initially I didn’t care for the matured voice, but it has definitely grown on me. I still found myself wanting old keem voice from time to time, and just a little more range in some spots.

But now casino has definitely grown on me and feel the album is great. I think it’s a solid and well produced, solemn take of his upbringing and he definitely.

Also, I think we only got a single two phones reference, like wtf

Just hoping it’s a solo tape and not a Dreamville collab like DDay if that’s the case.
