  11. air nibbler metal

    in Power Tools

    Posted

    I have a air scissors for sheetmetal from Harbor Freight. basically crap, no surprise, but it works fairly. Not goodly.

    I saw the 2 headed electrics for 40$ and was not a believer. What air nibbler is really decent and under 75$..??is there one..??

    The Ingersoll looked nice but price sucked.... 

  12. spark shroud for angle grinder

    in Accessories

    can't even use my grinder inside for fear a spark will ignite some speck of sawdust in a crack....always go outside and not in summer heat/fire...

    I need a homemade metal shroud to funnel all the sparks into a hose and metal can......anyone make one for this??

  13. guitar crack

    in Woodworking

    Posted

    I have a hairline crack straight from bridge back to the back edge....along the glued seam on this 2 piece back...common issue for  acoustic guitars...

    I could back it and force Gorilla glue  down it and then sand and lacquer. Or I could rout out a 1/16 inch dado and fill with an inlay plastic design...like herrinbone.

    I dont care if it changes the appearance, as long as it is nice.any ideas??? its a higher end guitar..

  14. Douglas Fir finish

    in Woodworking

    Posted

    I built a table 28x64 I did with a Douglas Fir plywood top. Its the good grade ply with one side sanded and no defects but its not cabinet grade.

    The grain is typical peeled rotary like so the rings are swirly and not tight light quarter sawn fir. But its clean and no holes etc.

    I was going to veneer it but veneer is too pricey nowadays. So I will keep it simple and use 3 coats of satin poly or maybe Tung oil...??

    Tung oil is nice on D fir but thats when its quarter sawn. Do you think Tung Oil would look good on DF plywwod,higher grade plywood..?

    I do want protection also which is why I thought of just poly. Some people say Tung hardens  but I dont know..

    I would really like a cordless circ saw using my 18v batts from my driver. As soon as I see one for 75$ I am in.

    I thought it was important to notify the world of this. Go Mak.
