    treating woodworm on an old bench?

    In forty years of treating woodworm infestations in antique furniture I have never heard of charing the wood to treat it and can't think how it would work. The larvae are deep inside the timber and when they turn into beatles they chew their way out so how is charing the surface going to prevent...

    MouseyThompson cheeseboard; repair possibl?

    The first thing to do is to get all of the old glue off. I would then glue with West System epoxy mixed with microfibres and some yellow ochre and brown umber. You can buy a small kit of west system like the one below. If you cannot find small quantities of ochre near you let me know and I will...

    Ebonised finish for William Morris Sussex chair

    BEE, I have only tried rushing once, by coincidence on a childs Sussex chair! It was not that difficult, I think I watched a YouTube video and just gave it a go. It was good fun. The big problem with rushing is to get rushes that are fine enough. Most of what you see are quite large rushes which...

    Ebonised finish for William Morris Sussex chair

    That is one way of ebonising and I have used it in the past when building sets in the theatre and it would be fine for 'upcycled' pieces but I would not use it on a good piece of furniture. At the end of the day if you put some black on a piece of wood to make it look vaguely like ebony it can...

    Ebonised finish for William Morris Sussex chair

    Hi BEE. I have restored many Sussex chairs and other Aesthetic movement ebonised pieces over the years. The originals were stained with Spirit Black mixed with Bismark Brown which are aniline dyes dissolved in meths. The shellac finish is then also tinted with the same dyes and used as a base...

    Violin making in China

    Thank you for posting this video it was a fascinating watch, I was intrigued by the long handled chisels they tucked into their shoulder and used their body weight to help guide it. It also brought back fond memories of living in Kowloon as a child, I used to sit by a pavement window and look...

    T track? What sizes / standards

    19mm is the standard size for jig making. As said above Woodworkers workshop are not much more than the cheap ones on eBay. All T tracks look the same but the cheap ones are made of an aluminium alloy , what you want is the solid aluminium as sold on Peter Sefton's site.

    Thank you for those replies and apologies to sed9888 for hijacking your thread. I have problems with light rust on my new PT so I will get some of this T9 and give it a go.

    Advice

    I have not heard of this T9 before Droogs. It looks interesting, is it a product you use and if so what form do you use it in?

    Paste Wax Recommendations

    Varnish will be fine, I would just use whatever you have on the shelf, if you don't have anything and need to go and buy a varnish then No Nonsense Quick-Dry Varnish Satin Clear 750ml Its cheap, quick drying and very good, three or four coats should be sufficient let it harden off for a couple...
