    Sandbox wood?

    I'm going to be putting together a sandbox for the boy and was wondering what type of wood I should use? I'm going to stay away from the pressure treated.

    Classically overengineered hearth babyproofing

    My LOML asked that I baby proof our fireplace hearth and then promptly took off to Toledo to visit with her parents for the week. So...here I was unsupervised and a week to get a task done. I went to the store and looked through the stick-on rubber thingies and figured they would not be durable...

    Finally finished a project

    Just a small table to put beside the back sliding doors. It's red oak with rock hard table top finish as I can see my LOML storing her watering can and wet yard gloves on it. She asked for a shelf but... this is what came out the other side of 3 months work/play in the shop.:gar-La; I figure I...

    Looking for Kiln dried RO in the Charlotte Area

    I'm wondering if anyone has some 5/4 red oak available around Charlotte. I need about 6 boards 5" wide and multiple of 30" long. I also need 5 boards of 4/4 but that seems easier to find. But, they would need to be 2 @ 6" x 8' and 3 @ 5.5 -6 x 8'. Thanks for the help. Steve

    How would you (newbie question)

    I have a plan that calls for 52 pieces 1/2" x 2" x 27" and I'd like some suggestions on getting rough RO to those dimentions. From what I've seen at Woodcraft and Klingspor here in Charlotte is mostly 4/4 lumber. I don't really want to turn half of each board into chips by using 4/4. Although it...

    Wood movement?

    I have a M+T joint that measures 7" with 2x2" tenons. I question wether or not I need to leave a little extra room to move in the mortises. Maybe 1/16 at each end? Also, should I to glue just one or both? They are all pretty snug. Actually surprised myself with that one.:gar-Bi This is my first...
