profiled 2 cores on the weekend. I did the first one and splintered the ends as I went from 1cm it 2mm in one go. Should be able to save it by using tip fills. Am going for full timber in the other one. Learned that lesson and did the next one with a bunch of passes. Worked really well! Was really h...

Hey guys, Thanks for the input. I will grab a hot glue gun this week I think. I was avoiding it as I thought they are exxy but they are fairly cheap. Need to buy a shop vac and maybe some goggles. I have been using safety glasses and these don't stop sawdust sticking to my eyeballs. I have pretty re...

Hi Guys, So I finished off my router bridge and rails setup today. I gave it a burl on some pine I had and it worked pretty well. I need to look at a better way to secure it to the bench. I used spray adhesive with an mdf board underneath. The mdf stuck great but the pine not so much. I used clamps ...

I was going on the assumption that I would use approx 750 grams per board. Up until very recently entropy only had one distributor in Australia. We now have two. Looking at the jamestown distributors site it would cost 120 plus postage to get a gallon of 100 resin and a quart of hardener so with pos...

Hi Guys, I have been playing a fair bit in autocad lately and have been toying with the idea of trying to follow something like never summers vario sidecut/rocker camber technology. If you don't know what this is you can see it explained here. I have read a lot about it and it seems really great. Wh...

I have purchased a router for a good price (got it on sale) and a triton work bench with saw on eBay for cheap. I picked it up last night. I driv...
