    Washer dryer cupboard

    Hey guys, did a search and couldn't find any info probably due to lack of using correct terminology. I'm looking to make a cupboard for a washer and a dryer machine, the plan is to make it a little wider than both machines to leave some room at the sides for the door to slide in when they are...

    Airtight door

    I'm a true believer in the airtight building method :D :D so no taping of anything lol. Ventilation will be trough a fully enclosed system, where the outgoing air passes the incoming air through a heat exchanger. I already had a preliminary blowerdoortest performed halfway through...

    Airtight door

    Hey guys, looking for information on how to make a 100% airtight interior door. I was thinking of buying the door itself and then custom making a doorframe for it with preferably a double seal all the way around. I found the aquamac seal system after some googling and was wondering if there are...

    Wall construction

    Very good idea, do feel a bit embarassed that I didn't think of that myself since I am a welder :-)!! Cheap solution too to make the whole wall stiffer. Thanks!

    Wall construction

    Thanks guys, guess I was overly concerned! Wooden framework with some kind of boards it will be! Will certainly check with my building supplier for a kind of boards specifically meant for tilling. The floor tanking system used a lot over here in Belgium is some kind of fiberglass cloth...

    Wall construction

    Hello, how would you guys construct a wall like this (green wall in the picture)? My concern is that because of the fact that the wall isn't connected to the ceiling, it'll wobble around with the slightest bump. I was thinking maybe a torsion box design using MR mdf? Or am I overly concerned...

    Triangular mitre slot

    The incra has arrived, fantastic bit of kit!! The incra mitre bar did expand enough to give a tight fit in the mitre slot, but due to the fact that the slot is triangular shaped there was only a very narrow point of contact wich caused the discs to wear out very very quickly resulting in a...

    Triangular mitre slot

    The table saw I have is an old CI one, german brand 'MARTIN' The slot is 20,5mm at the top, 32mm at the bottom and is 12mm high. I have checked the incra site and their mitre bar is 19mm (3/4) wide and 9,5 high (3/ 8), so it should fit. I'll go ahead and order the incra 1000SE, if it...

    Bikes.

    I bet you that a couple of decades ago the 'seniors' were saying the same thing about them darn youngsters :-) I'm 31 and try and fix everything myself and so do most of my friends. I also have some friends who have got two left hands (is that even a saying in English?) and would rather use...

    Triangular mitre slot

    Have read the review some time ago when searching the site and found it very helpful! What is your opinion (having seen it firsthand) on using the incra style mitre bar with a triangular mitre slot?

    Triangular mitre slot

    Tougth about this also but that would be a last option! Would rather have a 'custom' mitre bar machined.

    Triangular mitre slot

    Must have my brands mixed up. Incra offers a mitre bar wich uses discs at the top of the bar to eliminate play, I tought the Kreg bar was the same, my mistake, sorry! There would be a slightly bigger point of contact witht the incra system than with the kreg system. This is the system I am...

    Triangular mitre slot

    I'm looking to purchase a mitre gauge either a kreg or a incra system. Problem is my table saw has a triangular shaped mitre slot. I suppose the mitre slot bar with either system would work, but there would be a very small point of contact only at the top of the triangle, would like to hear some...

    Hello, I am currently working in the UK and have to send a parcel to Belgium, what would be the cheapest and easiest way to do this? Can I just pop in to any post office and have my parcel sent to Belgium, or do I need to do it via parcelforce? I have checked their website and it's not exactly...

    Unashamed gloatery

    I have the exact same saw, very good saw but pay attention that the guard closes everytime! I've had the saw for five years now and in two occasions the blade 'stuck' in the open position, this combined with the long very silent run down time of the blade is offcourse dangerous. The guard get's...
