16 mm cavity to comply with uk regs , just mastic the thing in mate . I've never had a call back !

What mahogany do you have ? Sapele is a mahogany .

Yup forgot to mention the 2mm gap :oops: Plumbers mate goes rock hard doesn't it ?

Ok they are alotta dosh but if you have a problem up to 2 years they come and pick the machine up , replace it with a demo one , fix yours and bring it back to you again . All companies that supply machinery have problems and this was the best service i have ever had . I went Hilti after giving...

BB i just rip the sides , front and back the same size . Screw and glue them together with butt joints and rebate the bottom out to take a 12mm (18mm if its a big draw) base screwed and glued . Fit the draw runners and then line up the draw front . Depends what you are making i suppose as to how...

Then you will be making something square and in wind and filling it full of moisture ........ boing ...... all your hard work at the clamping stage gone up the spout . I suppose you could treat it with some kind of timber preserve but thats what paint is isn't it ? As i said before i'm not the...

A nice bead of mastic , push the glass in , mastic again and fit the beads . If it's a timber door pin the beads to the door if plastic i think they use rubber gaskets and the beads clip into a rebate but i dont do plastic .

I find the Polish ones pretty good but the Slovacs are up and comming :lol:

P.S The good thing about cleaning up with a belt sander is you can fill all the gaps with glue and the sander pushes the sawdust into them :lol: I use worn out 80 grit for my cleaning up .

Once out of the clamps i glue the wedges in . I was actually taught to do this on glue up as the way you put the wedges in tightens the joint to the shoulder but as i said before i do it after as i need to speed things up to earn a living and squaring clamping and then wedging saves alot of...

What about old fridge freezer draws ? Should find loads of them at the dump .

Ouch , i've never had it happen but i know it will one day . Reminds you to keep your body out of the way but still doesn't save your hand eh .

I would lift the old boards first before i fixed them down just to check for pipes and wires . Then insulation to dampen any noise and nail or glue the floor down . I've been told that nailing and gluing is a no no but that was by a flooring company and i cant see why it would be a bad thing .

Guitar making hurts my head ! Looking very good !
