I would go for a Freud (good value) 48 tooth blade. Should give you a nice finish. when running sheet goods through my table saw, I often cut oversize to start and trim to size when broken down to smaller, more manageable, pieces

What about 3M spray mount, wouldn’t that be just perfect?

Will it damage the motor on your table saw? I would have thought with the right blade you would be fine.

Thank for all the replies, I think I will go with tulipwood :) Poplar/tulipwood - good stability, on the softer side, light weight, low grain, takes paint well

Hi, I am looking to make some shaker doors for a motorhome. Whilst weight is a consideration, finish and stability come at the top of the list. The doors will have a painted finish. What would be your recommendation for a good choice of wood for the stiles & rails. The panel will likely be...

A used record 151 spokeshave can be for for £15 on eBay and will be a lot better quality and will hold its value if you want to sell it on.

Could A terrarium jar work?

I’ve got a trend bevel box for the TS and it’s great for what I need. It may not be 100% accurate, but it’s a good starting point and you can always micro adjust after a test cut.

A local machine shop should be able to knock the up quite easily. Perhaps someone on the forum may be able to help...

I’ve got the sip, cost £130 second hand and has proven to be a good buy. Yes changing speeds is a little involved but you can have it done in 30seconds so no major issue there.

what about getting them cnc cut, plenty of people on here may be able to help you out or find someone selling the service on eBay.

Thanks again for all the info and suggestions. Thanks Ttrees for the heads up on the Startrite :)

Thanks for all the suggestions, a 352 would be great but sadly out of my price range. I think something like the 12” record,Elektra beckum bas 315 or similar.

I’m in Southampton but often down that way seeing friends, will send you a dm :)

I’m in the marked for a (used) bandsaw, budget of £300 to £400 or there abouts I would like to be able to cut up to a thickness of 150mm I’ve been browsing eBay but not sure how to begin narrowing down my decision. All suggestions appreciated :)

what kind of ply finish are you after? I think I would just use the correct thickness of ply to start with. Not sure how successful you would be gluing ply to osb. Is there much of a cost saving using osb & ply over just ply?

I think if you are getting rid of 3 handles, doesn’t logic dictate you should get rid of all the handles? the worm holes tell you have had wood worm and they have dug their way out. It tells you the past not the future. What’s to say the beetles didn’t come out of one chisel and lay their eggs...

I use efoam.co.uk Either get them cut to the size of the cover and dacron warped or a dead fit + 12mm across each dimension - this will help fill the cover nicely.

I put a couple of strips masking tape on the wall, top & bottom, to make sure you are offering up the piece to the same place each time. It can be a real pain if you slightly move your piece and it no longer fits :(
