    JessEm Dowelling Jig

    Hey Spectric, I redid the holes today that were causing me issues - I guess I must’ve mismeasured - teach me to do something new and complicated at the end of a long day.

    Evolution circ. saw with track or Mac plunge saw?

    I have the Evo circ saw and tracks and I’m in love-hate relationship with it. Ive upgraded the blade for finer woodworking cuts. It’s mostly fine. But to echo everyone else - not for fine woodwork. I’ve had a hell of a time with the splinter strips coming off - which is a real pain and makes it...

    Laying tiles (mosaic) outside advice sought.

    I did actually wonder about that - we tiled the top of the bricks to protect them a little bit was unsure about sealing the back. Will it allow the brick to “breathe” (do they need to?) any thoughts/knowledge appreciated.

    Laying tiles (mosaic) outside advice sought.

    Thanks everyone. my girlfriend started before we had a response (impatient/excitable)* delete as appropriate. we went for fireproof adhesive Victas HB60 and a heatproof grout. We’ll use a sealer on top after. Hopefully it will hold up. It’s pretty rustic fun and colourful so hopefully any...
