These were built in Redwood and have stood the test of time and heavy handed kids. :lol:

I think you might find that they were a 2 pack lacquer or one of the epoxy coatings. These were used to give the deep sheen on a lot of dashes and trim. :wink:

I always use MRMDF now as it cuts down the time in prep. Much more stable and denser than the fluffy stuff. I get a good discount now too. :D

The aquarium cabinet is ready for the handles and delivery now. Just one more to go. :D I got the doors mounted on the curved cabinet today so I could trim them to fit. Still waiting for the handles so can't do much more now. Wardrobes are almost complete now and will be fitted next...

Yes Rich, they are rebated for the panels, done with the router. Yes Bob, I should have but forgot and left the doors until last and then didn't have enough wood left to book match them both. :oops: I will get it right eventually......honest.

The frame is made with Dominos Rich. I used the largest ones for this and it has made a pretty solid job of it. :D

Whoa, steady on Reggie, I am just getting my head around this machine. I am still wading through the tons of apps on the site to find out which one is best for me! Tried 5 so far but none of them can sort out the order of my gallery. :roll:

Ah brilliant Nev, thanks for the help. It appears there was no appslib on the machine for some reason? I have now downloaded it and can browse for a photo gallery app. All I need now is to find my way around the apps site and find the right one. :lol:

Well Nev, I can't find any way to find apps for my tablet? I did try the Google site but it doesn't support mine apparently. In the instructions it says to tap on the APPSLIB icon but I can't find the icon?? It says the online library has thousands of apps to download! if only I could find it!

I wonder if anyone can help me with a problem I have with my tablet? I recently bought a Arnova tablet to show my photos on as it would be easier for me than carting around a photo album. It uses android apparently and when I transfer my photos from my laptop and put them into a gallery it shows...

Thanks guys. yes Reggie, it is a bit unusual isn't it? Well I got on very well today with everything sanded ready for a finish and the doors fitted. I also got the canopy ready for a finish although I am still waiting for the hinges to arrive. By the end of the day I had given all of it a...

I'm with you Richard, I haven't got a clue? Just another Americanism that seems to be so popular now along with a few new words. 'compartmentalisation' springs to mind. :roll:

I made some progress on the aquarium cabinet today. The shelves and the back panel are now fitted. The top is now complete and the third leg added. The canopy is also nearing completion now. Booth doors are in the clamps and will be the item on the agenda tomorrow. :D

The corners of the unit were carved and sanded to shape after glueing up a large quadrant section. It is all spray painted with Morrells 2K solvent. The doors will be made in MDF and the outer two doors will be hung on inset euro hinges and the centre door will be hung on a set of half overlap...

I am pretty busy at the moment I am happy to say. thought I would post a couple of shots of what I have been up to in case you were wondering where I had got to. :lol: I have almost finished a set of painted wardrobes which will have two mirror doors. (I shall post some shots of it once fitted...

I think it must just be the hobby equipment as I have one of the 12" cast iron table saws (01446) and it is very sturdy and accurate and has taken everything I have thrown at it! :o

There is no need to record anything nowadays as they repeat it at least twice a week. and then again the following week on another channel. When they have exhausted the repeats over the week they then have a back to back of the repeats again the following month! Of course if you are into talent...

Well I have given up on the Makita drill drivers after my third battery has gone down! :evil: (two Makita and one cheapo version) I have bitten the bullet and bought a De Walt Li Ion driver. It was on offer at Screwfix with two batteries for £150 so the ideal opportunity to make the change. It...

I will have to add to this that I have just tried the Zinnser bin and it works great (Spirit based one) I applied one coat with a brush and then sanded it with 150 grit it dries very quickly. I then spray the panel with my usual Morrells primer one coat and then sand with 320 lightly and on with...

I returned to my customers home to take some more shots of the Oak units. The handles had arrived and I had arranged to fit them and deliver the mirror. This time i took my camera instead of using my phone and the shots came out much better. I did manage to capture part of the customer in...
