I finsihed up the tile work and did sanding with os50vc hooked up to the vac090 dust collection is okey if you move from side the side but if you go forward then gets dusty

Casing casing and more casing
I have a feeling you will be doing a lot of casing on that project. That is a big house.

Fayetteville, NCGot a few minutes to slap together a flip top planer stand today
I wasnt sure exactly what I wanted so I made it with 2x offcuts, mostly 2x6s. Dowels for the joinery
Im again reminded of my own rule. Never rush. I made a few small mistakes that add up, and it is bigger and bulkier than I like
May make it again following some plans and with plywood. Will be thinner at least.
I also made it too tall, so I could have my benchtop bandsaw and jointer on the opposite side. Added a lot of height to be able to rotate the bandsaw, which required futher reinforcement
All in all, a functional job but Im not loving it
@montreal_medic,
Any pictures of your multi-tool flip top?
Some of us might have some ideas and there is another member here who has made one and I can’t remember his name??“If you don’t pass on the knowledge you have to others, it Dies with you”
— Glenn BottingHad to redo all the casters on the racks I built, made the mistake of initially buying all swivel casters and having the whole thing become more tippy, so swapped out half of them for straight casters.

I have lots of plans but sometimes you need to mock it up to decide
And this will be functional until I retire it

What racks are you building, what are they for, hopefully not wine racks lol
Repaired some broken floor tiles in a kitchen yesterday.
I warned they were originally not installed correctly.
It sucked for me being a once in a rare while tiler. LOL They were 13×13 with no grout joints. Its a dark tile with beveled edges…I was fooled.
The the floor was over spanned and tiled over hardi backer. The thinset was very thick the 1/2″ notches I had were not enough so building up the adhesive sucked… Nor did I have a suction cups to pull a tile back up if it was too low.

I really like that. The accent tiles really pop and the change from square to diamond pattern adds a nice touch too. Very nice!

wouldn’t that be awesome, movable wine racks to the table. You can choose your own adventure lol. No I built some clothing racks for the wife, the ones with the pipe poles, it actually works pretty well.

I was wondering what you were going to use as a stop for the top. Ingenious idea with the eye bolt.
Looks great so far. ThanX for the pic’s“If you don’t pass on the knowledge you have to others, it Dies with you”

One element that is good is that if/when I rebuild it, I am going smaller. I used wooden dowels for the joinery, so I can easily cut it apart and rebuild it smaller if I want to.
More work on the ’63 Harmony. Got most of the cleaning done, the frets and fretboard are done. Starting to go back together. I still have to make a nut for it.
