They're very beautiful. Did you make them as gifts for people?

Welcome/welkom Rhyno.

We adopted an ex-racing greyhound and we have the same problem with trying to photograph her. Greyhounds can reach up to 70 kph. I find the "sport" setting on the camera is best.

Welcome Andy. I live in New Zealand which is the exact opposite of land locked (sea locked?). We live near the beach. All the best with your boat building and woodworking :)

I often use MDF for projects such as seating, day beds, cubby shelving etc, but I always make sure I use the 18mm thick sheets. I like MDF because it is cheap and precision cut. One annoying thing...

Sorry, I double checked and it was actually notches used for the farmhouse table rather than tenons.

Hi Bill,
I'm not very experienced either but when I want inspiration for beginner/intermediate projects I often browse this US website: Ana White | Free and Easy DIY Furniture Plans to Save You...

Thanks for all the advice on this. I thought that the delivery man was the owner, but I got in touch with the store and it turned out the owner had no idea that the delivery guy had done this. The...

I live in small town Manawatu so I don't think any of you will ever have to run into this guy!

NZ Consumer Law states we can demand a refund, but only if we return the goods to store and the...

I know! That's what I was thinking when I inspected it after he had driven off. I've seen this roughed up stuff on auction websites for a really cheap price, except that those people advertised it as...

I already had to complain when the delivery hadn't arrived by the afternoon - turned out they'd forgotten to do it. Then when it arrived I complained that it was treated and he told me I was getting...

I have 1/4 inch ply for the back of the wall cabinets. I didn't want to use melamine because I'll be brad nailing moulding to the crown and around the cabinet doors to create the French country look....

My receipt states "C ply untreated 2400x1200x18". The C ply at the store looked much better than the E grade that was delivered. The stamp on the ply that has been delivered states "Treated H3.2 - E"...

I wanted to build my own wall cabinets instead of buying ready made melamine wall cabinets because I want that classic look with crown moulding around the top. So I went to a timber specialist,...

Its amazing how angry people get about parking. Just talking about parking is making people angry in this thread!

I don't like feeling angry so about 5 years ago I started getting all my...

It looks amazing - I love all the different colours. That's exactly the kind of look I'd love for our place. And it looks so professional.
When you say you got it an auction, you mean a physical...

I also like the look of imperfections. There's nothing wrong with a few knots here and there. Did your flooring timber have tongue and groove on the edge?

I find stores like Bunnings and Mitre10 only have drop saws to do cuts for you so they can only cut 200 or 300mm wide rather than having the capacity to cut 500mm wide timber, but maybe the Bunnings...

We bought a fairly large house (270m2, including the garage though) but the catch is that the whole second floor just has particle board for its flooring. The fun part is that we can do anything we...

My husband found an attractive faux marble tile at Mitre10 that is 300mm x 600mm and I've decided it to make a side table for the hallway with the tile as its table top. I'm wondering what the best...

- Sorry, meant to say 25x25mm not 250x250.

Thanks for the ideas. Here is a photo of my finished bath caddy. It was my first project using a mitre saw. I used dressed pine and stained it in a dark brown stain. I finished it using a...

Thanks Old Pete. I'll give that a go.:)

Hello everyone,
I want to build a bath caddy (one of those timber trays that sits over your bath, allowing you to rest a book or cup of tea on it). It would be exposed to a lot of steam and moisture...
