    Resources links/articles - empty links?

    I decided to look in the resources page, given that contributing to that is frequently requested on the main board. What I found was that any with a date of Apr 16 2019 is an empty link - there are no pictures and no real content. I suspect this issue stems from the software upgrade/migration...

    Which glue ? (for a backside veneer repair)

    I think I know the answer, but I want to hear it anyways. Here's the repair - a backing 'veneer' from a table leaf. It was starting to warp and I suggested to my friend that this was clearly water absorption - and was he sure he did not have roof leaks and mold in this closet where the leaf...

    Recent projects - #2 Potting bench

    This is a potting bench made for a friend - who saw commercial ones she liked overall, but that struck her as being too flimsy. Mostly deck boards (and most of these were cutoffs), all treated pine. Quite heavy, and so I built this as leg-set or base, and a separate top box that simply slides...
