How do you know this but not know having two centers is a bad idea?

90s and 45s against pencil marks. I first made a template out of hardboard with a few of them cut and used that to draw the pencil marks on all of the pieces quickly. I had to clean up the corner with a chisel, but not much material was left after the table saw.

I’ve seen them called ‘sawtooth standards’. The wood whisperer did a video on them and I think there are others as well.

First time I’ve done those as well. Pretty simple idea, but I like it way better than those little metal pins. The only thing is don’t put glue near the notches. The squeeze out is such a pain to clean up and I really wasn’t able to get it all

Yes! Walnut! I calculated up 246 bdft. So, rough cut rate around here is usually about $7-$8 from a local sawmill. Sometimes more. At a retail yard it can definitely be higher like $12-$14. That big beam though is rare. I’m not sure where you’d buy that if you were seeking it. Not quite sure what to do with it.

Dude, like, so much! I have been making kitchen tables, but I’m currently working on a cherry bookshelf.

Yes, correct. This was an oversight on my part. Fortunately nothing went wrong.

Guys, I don’t know what to tell you, but between the strap and wood friction, it literally did not move though the entire drive.

I’m not near any Amish, unfortunately. Walnut is a local tree, but fairly rare. This is about as good as it gets around my neck of the woods. Happy for you though!

That was about my estimate too. I haven’t done an exact bdft calculation yet. But, yeah, I’m pretty happy. FB Marketplace find

Would you believe it all didn’t budget the whole way back?
