as far as I can remember the main table came fitted. also the trunnions and motor assembly are attached directly to the table underneath it

It's just a normal bridle joint with an angled shoulder. You can look at the whitehill spindle moulder cutters catalogue under "scribe cutters". But you can just cut the shoulder by hand with the help of an angled guide. A mitre saw with trenching facility or even a table saw can also do the...

Thanks. You've made may day. I was struggling to find a way to fit a wardrobe in wonky recess, I think shadow gaps like those are the solution now.

There's this guy: Bradshaw Joinery. His videography is far from great aesthetically and otherwise, but he is an actual professional joiner showing how to do joinery the traditional way and giving useful tips along the way. A far cry from the majority of YT videos on plugging some dominoes...

Hi, Have you considered using concealed barrel hinges and a push to open catch? I think those would provide a cleaner look without giving away the fact there's a "secret" cabinet.

Interesting handle as well. How was it made? Is it just glued on? I suppose it is very fragile with that short grain section, unless it was bent. Cannot tell from the pictures

Hi, I haven't post here for a while. Decided to make use of some ash and sapele off-cuts left from a flooring/parquet job and had the idea of making a bracelet (or indeed a set of bracelets) using a technique akin to segmented turning. I opted to make the bracelet oval instead of round since...

is this suitable? http://www.wealdentool.com/acatalog/Onl ... __554.html NB it is a 5.5mm thick cutter but if you have a whitehill block it can accept cutters from 4mm to 6 mm thick

AFAIK ash moves a bit in service. aren't you concerned that panels may shrink and leave an unsightly crack in the paint all around?

I've got curious and looked at the manual (I keep a collection of pdf manuals for several machines that I;ve gathered over time). According to it, both bearings are the same model (6211) so if one runs hot and the other doesn't thats a bad sign. I'd speculate that if the top bearing does not...

Haven't posted a project here for awhile, and yes, it's another another wedding gift box. Timbers: sapele (reclaimed) and olive. Inner size is roughly an A4 paper sheet. Sorry I dont have any WIP pictures. Tried to look professional and took the photos with a white sheet as background but I...

I have that same model since 2008. probably an earlier revision since it does not have that side window to see the blade tracking. On mine adjusting the lower blade guides to cope with different blade widths is a major pain in the ar*e. I also don't like that the table split is oriented the way...

I have used the following pattern on the slats to avoid seeing the backing canvas (I've actually used leather instead of canvas) when they run on the curved section of the groove. the sharp corners were then rounded as well: a detail of the tambour on the cabinet:

epoxy. loads of open time (up to 60 min, depending on the type) and suitable for exterior applications. only drawbacks are price and it can also leave a slightly darker glueline.
