Not trying to hijack the thread, but I am in the process of fixing some Noblett chairs from the dining table that our son has.

It was a hand down from us.

The timber does not look to be...

Welcome

I have often wondered about doing a möbius, but am daunted by how to start. Perhaps I should just get up and give it a try.
Thanks for the motivation. :wink:

I have 8(?) 2 mtr x 900mm slabs of the stuff, and I am reticent to use them because of the movement. Might have to cut them up for chopping boards. :?

Red Gum and movement are synonymous.

All the Merbau that I have, has always darkened with age.

What Aldav said. A piano hinge is the way I would go.

Snikolaev,

Hope you are well.

Would you care to update us on the situation in Ukraine as I am getting mixed information as to what is happening.

cava · 25th January 2024, 09:53 AM

I am what would be called a sporadic user and tend to buy the 4 litre bottles.

The current TB3 that I am using is ~6 years old. But I store it in a coolish place in my shed.

If it looks too good to be true - it’s a scam.

Like the blue epoxy, it adds to the box. :2tsup:

I am sure his wife will be really impressed getting a piece of metal working equipment for a wedding present.

May I suggest you rethink the gift?

cava · 8th August 2023, 08:59 AM

I have the Carbatec metal detector and also a $14 Chinese clone. They were both bought within days of each other. They are identical in looks and function.

Depending on the size and layout of the granny flat, insulation is the best bang for buck you can do. Putting it in the walls may be problematic, but if you can it would be well worth it.

cava · 2nd August 2023, 10:54 AM

I would lean towards Maple as well. Certainly not Silky Oak.

cava · 31st July 2023, 11:04 AM

I still get glue creep, even with Bessey clamps, but most of the time it’s manageable.

I’m on the Mornington Peninsula and do not have any problem with glue ups.

I use old Merbau and Titebond 3.

I also put as much pressure on the joints using Bessey clamps as I can but I do not...

The bark on the tree looks just like an Hakea (Pincushion) that I have. The leaves are different, but it may be part of the same family.

cava · 14th July 2023, 09:43 AM

Cant hook perhaps?

cava · 8th July 2023, 11:29 AM

That box looks wonderful! :2tsup:

It looks well proportioned. How high is it?

Quite a few years ago (when I was younger) I moved a 3.0mtr x 3.0mtr tin shed from a neighbour’s property across the road to ours. The distance was ~40mtrs.

I cut some Pink Gidgee yesterday and it smelled like raspberry jam.
