Thank you, I did spot that after, seems to amend the little clips a bit.

Hi, many thanks for coming back to me, turns out my friend has bought himself a 3d printer so he’s gonna use this as a trial for setting his up

Bosch GTS10J User, been happy with it - I think the Dewalt blade is smaller these days that it used to be? GTS10J runs 254mm

Im a big fan of OSMO PolyX as a hard wax finish,

Original brief from the wife was for 2 matching side tables in black for the conservatory. I did these, and then we felt that one of them needed to be a nest, so made 2 more. Pleased with how they turned out - made from oak, and then stained with Indian ink, and then finished with OSMO PolyX...

Well I’ve cracked on and glued up some oak I had left, 65mm strips, 500mm long, 5 of them making the top. I guess it will be a test now when finished to see what the heat and weather does! I’m securing the top with wooden buttons, so if it goes south in the heat, I can remove the top easily and...

It’s a bit of a time sensitive job. Mrs ordered some sofas for the conservatory, and wanted some side tables. I got the bases ready, some tops glued up, planed down, then messed up the underbevel, so need new tops. I was thinking one piece may save a bit of time. I’ve trawled through the half...

Thanks. I wasn’t sure. Previous ones I’ve done I ripped planks down to 70mm wide and glued together, alternating the growth rings, never used a solid piece. I’ll carry on the same route then

Hi, looking to make 2 side tables, and the tops will be 500mm x 300mm I was thinking of using a single piece of oak for the top, and have found some that it 30mm thick. Would I need to worry about making a top from a single piece in regards to cupping or should it be ok at this thickness? Its...

yeah, there is a video I saw on YouTube that suggest you do this... This guy used battens on the wall first, offered up his un upholstered panel, screwed it to the batons, got it level and exactly where he wanted it. Then he used a 6mm bit, and drilled through there board, and into the...

thanks - some great thinking about excluding the top row, I looked at all panels needing the same but yep, all rows bar the top can have std cleat or similar fixings, and Niall, thanks for that, that's a great idea also. I did look on Uk amazon and those Beau clips were more expensive there...

thanks for the tips, im not experienced in this so the more info the better :) I have seen people using some which material which im guessing now is the calico, on top of the foam, and then putting the main fabric on top. Your right with the measurements though, im wondering now if I should...

Thanks for the reply - velcro im not sure would be strong enough, these panels will be 666 x 333mm and 12 or 18mm mdf/ply With regards panels holding them in, do you mean a bit like a door with multiple glazed panels in? The panels will have quite thick foam and the material pulled tight, and I...

So the wife has decided she likes the look of these headboards, made up of rectangle wooden panels, covered with foam and material, and attached to the wall, bit like this: My quandary is fixing these to the wall. If I had some space above the panels, I could use many of the fixings that are...

doesn't look right that - where are they coming from, did triton send you the replacement or the vendor?

We have a local timber yard that has a lot of different cutters for skirting - I used this on our house (ignore the fact its oak and architrave) was just trying to show the profile. Its called regency, and not dissimilar to yours - are you matching up to existing in a room or doing the whole...

Haha thanks, no need to apologise So are we saying no finish then? wouldn’t the grain be more open to bacteria?

didn't get a reminder for any of these replies, thanks for all the input. I think I'll trawl eBay/amazon for some plastic see-though ones - if not, will look at new wife option o_O
