Boom Posted April 20, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2010 And FWIW, none of those photos have been edited in any way at all, not even cropped. Those are all just how I took them with my new work camera (Nikon D300) with macro lens. Thanks for looking. Boom :boom: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alamodem Posted December 29, 2012 Report Share Posted December 29, 2012 Patrick Actually, let the boards dry first and plane them afterwards. Boards will still warp while drying, When you buy boards say 2x4s lay them flat and if you purchase alot, stack them with a little lath (small strips of wood) every few layers, In mills they put lath in between every single layer before they go into the dryers. As for running through a jointer, You treat every board as an individual, Knots, heartwood as opposed to sap wood, pith, they all have a determining factor on how each board dries. Even the growth rings from one tree to another tree will be different so the boards will not often dry exactly the same. As for a jointer, Take a look at some of the contractor thickness planers, or even the shop ones if you can afford them. your better off with one of those if you want boards a specific dimension you can run the boards through a thickness planer even on edge, A cabinet maker I know has 3 thickness planers and a jointer, the jointer always has a layer of dust on it. I purchased a Rigid Thickness planer and its a joy to work with. The dewalt is one that is highly recommended as well but is more expensive.

nkavich Posted October 14, 2013 Report Share Posted October 14, 2013 Hi, Nice looking aquarium. How did your sump pump tracks work? Are you able to pull out the sump for maintenance? What type of track did you make/purchase? Thanks, Nathan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
