Pretty sure no, but it does depend on how deep the unglued section extends into the joint. If you're worried yes dribble in some epoxy. Have a hair dryer on hand to heat the epoxy up and it'll penetrate the crack deeper.Copes":13xgn8gf said:However, underneath on one of them there's quite a long section which is about 1mm wide and about 60cm ~ long ... does it need fixing?
Worth doing I'd say. I always do when I want the surface smooth.Copes":13xgn8gf said:As it happens i also have a couple of knots sadly which are going to go in to the top which have splitting/cracking going on, and was thinking of filling those with epoxy as well?
novocaine":2u83u2uf said:get it built then flatten the top, either by hand with a scrub then a jack plane or with a router jig. your going to have to do it anyway once it's built (are you putting a tool tray in the middle?) how are you joining the top to the legs? you've missed a great chance to make wedged mortises the easiest way ever.![]()
No, i'm just going to go with a straight forward top. I do have plans to add all sorts of draws and bits and bobs to it once its basic form is built.(are you putting a tool tray in the middle?)
