thanks Muskoka man. I've a beard so the normal face mask doesn't cut it so I use a full face mask, plus no itchy eyes. We have a native wood in this country that will destroy the lungs too if you inhale the dust, ... and then came along COVID. 🥴

thanks Ollie for the scoring tip. I resharpened the chisels to 25 degrees to make life abit easier too, then colour coded them for Cedar only. Taping the ends to prevent ends chipping (from experience:( as you probably know, carpentry grade Cedar is a stupid price AND took 3 months to order, so...

thanks for the tip :)

These windows were the fore runner of Velux. but much lighter 4 panes, each weigh 6kg and the window are inclined on a 30 degree(ish) from vertical. They were the days when children didn't have lawyers. The frames are not painted , just covered with 1" board flashing that is painted and the...

just replacing what is on the building. It's about 100 years old and there is additional 1" capping over so the cedar never sees the light of day.

Knew it would happen one day but it still hit my eyes harder than they could cope, I'm not even British. If the new king does only 1/10th what his mother did and 1% of the rest of us have done he will be brilliant without a doubt.

Thanks Brian, your a fantastic Dad , wouldn't be a window frame guru as well by any chance? for now I'm frantically derusting our Nissan Ute before our winter sets in. I will post the results when they hatch but will be many blue moons before and this lid is the easy part of this project

I like this idea more than what I had planned, I have some old railway rail lengths , but your method is gradual and I could do it over several weeks. I have been informed that this is the original lid from a music box from 18xx which means I have a BIG project ahead. I need that show, The...

thanks for the easy option "A" I know the wood mills steam and correct non straight and kilm dry but thats computer controlled, I like option A.

Hi, hoping to get some directional advice before I go & do something wrong and ruin this lid, as if I could. Warped, split, cupped and delaminating, Oh and forgot STAINED badly. What should I use and order would help. Guessing fix split and squash it flat first after a steam bath so if that...

Hi, wish to know of any tips for working with Red Cedar before commencing on big window frame, 1C restoration project. Will be using a Mortice machine, buzzer, plunge router and saw bench if needed, all of which I have limited experience with. Intend on a pre-run on pine wood for first frame ...

nail 4 holes thru groove of paint can to let excess drip back into can, pour between two holes to keep paint t bay, add masking tape along edge and past holes or just use one of those can pour protectors and just let paint dry on it. Lid seals off holes when back on.

If the break is clean it could be super-glued back and clamped tight and given 24 hours. plan B: make a replacement from hardwood or hardwood-ply and for the center hole use some type of bushing. Machine a brass one or Jerry-rig one out of several washers stacked together to match...

Thank you everyone for you advice and help. Where I live limits looking in person and there seems to be hoarders / collectors as most are advertised as Antique lol :( . I asked around demo yards and response was haven't seem any for many years. This last picture added is after he cleaned it...
