    Best all-around finish?

    Casey, did you do any more research on the Vesting product? From what I have found it seems to be great but as you stated the cost is HIGH. The darn light is $700! I've been trying to find UV lights that might work but I'm not really sure I know what to look for.

    LED Shop lights

    Yes, I have 4' fixtures. I was upgrading led ballast fixtures from 3200k low lumens to 6000k high lumens (7200/bulb). At each end of each fixture there are 4 tombstones (this is the part where you slide the pins of the tube into for power. Normally the tombstones are connected parallel to each...

    LED Shop lights

    On mine, first I cut the wires going to the ballast, removed the ballast, and connected the white wire from the power source to one set of the tombstones on one end of the fixture. The black wire from the power source was connected to the tombstones on the other end of the fixture. Reinstalled...

    Shaper Tape Origin resource

    I think the roughness on the edges of the letters was due to using an 'UpCut" bit. Since then I purchased a "DownCut" bit but have not tested it.

    Shaper Tape Origin resource

    I think I resolved the issue. I measured the size of the dominos on the print and compared it to on on the tape. The printed version was a bit larger. I reprinted and ensured that the printed domino was the exact size and it worked. I use a Windows app (PriPrinter) that allows me to rescale an...

    imho, the brighter the better. Bulb temp is critical, get what they call daylight, this is a temp of 6000k to 7000k. If you go too high it will get blue. I'm attaching my lighting journey

    Shaper Tape Origin resource

    Initially I placed tape on just on the top and later added a strip along the bottom and a few on the ends. I also tested by placing a strip on an external board. Later I discovered that I could rotate the SO 90 degrees and cut the letters at the top

    Shaper Tape Origin resource

    For whatever reasons I have not had good success with printing the dominos. They look great but the SO has trouble with them and almost none are recognized. I'm using an HP LaserJet Pro MFP M479fdw and printing on white copy paper.

    Shaper Tape Origin resource

    Sorry for the late reply This is after I made a V cut. Later I decided the V cut was not necessary, at least I didn't think so. The board is about 42" x 19". Here is the finished phase. All of the guests will sign the board with a indian ink felt pin. I will then seal the board with a led...

    Hammer Jointer-Planer A3 31 Cutter Upgrade to Byrd Shelix Head 2023-12-07

    After a LOT of research, I had some info where the most helpful was a document where a Hammer C3-31 had been upgraded. Thus, I started with this, very quickly I realized that it was a good reference but LOTS of differences. To hopefully eliminate serious issues I started to document my process...
