The secret to the best finish is to use a combination of the right technique and abrasives with the right sander. The LEX 2 150/3 offers a very tight sanding stroke to minimize scratch patterns and the LEX 2 150/7 offers an aggressive sanding stroke for fast stock removal. A good finish is more than a stain, a sealer, or paint, it is a surface that is absolutely smooth to the touch. When it comes to large surface sanding, bigger is better. The LEX 2 185/7 is big all over; big pad, big stroke, big power, and big on longevity. The compressed air family of sanders are our longest lasting sanders with vane motors and few wear parts. At the end of the day, that adds up to a lot of dust. Thankfully, the CT 36 Dust Extractor (with the Festool- designed service unit option), the Jetstream pad, and the IAS 2 hose can capture the dust and contain it.

Description: Cutting Rabbets and Dadoes with a Router; Dadoes are square notches cut into the surface of a piece of lumber that hold the end of a joining board. They are perfect when building shelving or cabinetry as a way to join shelves and partitions. For this bookcase project, the dado joinery is reinforced with screws, although that added strength isn't essential to the joint. A simple but foolproof T-Square jig is built to assist in cutting the dadoes. This type of jig is designed to cut exactly 90 degrees to one edge, which is perfect for our shelf dadoes. You will also need a straight router bit. Ours is 3/4-in. diameter because our lumber measures that same thickness. Rabbets are similar to dodoes and groves in that they can go in the direction of the grain or across it. However, Rabbets are notches cut into the edge of a board. A rabbet is used to attach the back panel to the bookcase Laying Out, Cutting and Smoothing Curves; A changing radius curve isn't a section of a circle. This type of curve can be drawn with a variety of drawing tools, including french curves and battens.

  • Tips & Tricks for Project Boards

    Tips & Tricks for Project Boards

    Tips & Tricks for Project Boards What are project boards? Project boards are pre-finished, smaller, easy-to-transport, easy-to-store, easy-to-handle craft and hobby boards, available in a variety of styles and colors, excellent for a wide range of DIY home projects. Understanding project board finishes Charred – Our method of charring wood uses the Japanese technique of shou-sugi-ban to create artfully burned boards intended to create unique home décor projects, accent walls, crafts, hobbies and more. Rustic – These project boards are perfect for your next reclaimed-wood project. It's new lumber that has been distressed, primed and painted to have the authentic look and texture of vintage, rough-sawn, rustic barn wood. Getting a clean edge when sawing project boards Don’t own a saw? Ask a sales associate if complementary cutting is available. Most stores will cut as many pieces as you’d like to any dimensions you need. Feel free to bring your project instructions along so you’re ready to take advantage of this service when and where it’s offered. The professionals are there to help! All the cuts you need to make on your project boards can be made with a circular saw. A miter saw and table saw work too – and can save time on large jobs – but the circular saw is your Swiss army knife of cutting. Whichever saw you choose, make sure you’re using one with sharp carbide teeth. A high number of sharp teeth – at least 80 – will ensure clean cuts, while dull blades are more likely to chew up the edges of your wood.
  • Sanding Block Plan.Pdf

    Sanding Block Plan.Pdf

    Project: Sanding block plan Page 1 of 25 Sanding blocks plan Sanding the surfaces is one of the most important operations that needs to be done on wooden parts before the finishing. At the same time, sanding is time-consuming and one of the less interesting parts of woodworking. Besides that, during sanding you should keep in mind that any scar or scratch, regardless of its size, can show up after finishing coats of stain or varnish are applied. The importance of sanding is that this procedure removes hand tool or machine tool marks and smooths the surface of wood. This allows the reflective properties of the finishing materials to equalize and bring out the full beauty of the wood grain. By taking the time and care, using correct procedures and good selected grades of abrasives, the outcome will be finish of perfect quality and appearance. In professional workshops, sanding is done with power sanders (belt sander, pad sander or drum sander) or with sanding machines. In small and less equipped workshops, sanding is still done mainly by hand. Hand sanding also must be done on parts with complicated or complex curved surface as well as on small surfaces. Most woodworkers even after sanding with sanding machines and power sanders do the final sanding by hand. For the hand sanding, one of the irreplaceable tools is sanding block. A sanding block makes it easier to hold the sandpaper, maintain flatness of the surface and prolonges life of the sandpaper. Surface on the sanding block that sits on the sandpaper should be slightly resilient.

    Equipment: This Includes, but Is Not Limited To: • Scroll Saw – Very Important, If You Want to Go the Cheaper Route, Get a Coping Saw

    To start, thank you all for your kind comments concerning my work, I really appreciate it. In this document I will try to show you all the “secrets” to making a custom razor handle, including how I do inlays. I will detail the step-by-step process and even reveal my favorite suppliers and equipment. If you ever thought, “I’d like to make MY own custom handle and not buy one from Mike”, then here is your chance. I’m not concerned about creating competition, if someone else wants to take up the torch and do this for a living then by all means knock yourself out. I enjoy handle making as a hobby, granted I promote it like a business, but that is only because it is such a small niche market that if I didn’t I would only be making handles for myself and would run out of projects pretty quick. -Mike- Equipment: This includes, but is not limited to: • Scroll saw – very important, if you want to go the cheaper route, get a coping saw. You need something that can handle curves. Dremel, Delta, Rigid, and Hawk are all excellent choices. Mine is a Rigid ($180). $80 - $400 • Band saw – not necessary, but nice. A 10” is sufficient. $59 - $150 • Dremel tool – get one! Besides the scroll saw this is the most important tool you will own. Dremel now has a cordless that is variable speed up to 30,000 RPM. It is awesome. I think it is called the Ion, or something, it has a Lithium Ion battery.

TOOLS REQUIRED ; Regular carpentry tools, such as a level, block plane, sanding block, drill, table saw or circular saw with fine-toothed carbide blade, chalk line, hack saw, tape measure, file, miter box, square, 4’-6’ or laser alignment tool and flat screwdrivers. CAUTION ; Be sure to use the proper safety guards required when cutting panels and trim. Also, wear safety glasses or face shields and hand protection. NOTE - Metal veneer products may produce sparks when cutting. Take proper precautions for dust removal. WALL PREPARATION ; Structural walls should be finished with building completely closed. Walls must be thoroughly dry before panels are applied. Panels must be applied over a smooth, solid, flat backing such as plaster, drywall or plywood. A vapor barrier should be use between backer and studs to discourage warping. Protect existing surfaces with drop cloths. PREPARATION/HANDLING TIPS ; Open cartons and carefully inspect all panels. Due to texture and manufacturing techniques, some panels may vary in color, consistency and pattern.
