DavidPto Woodworking@lemmy.ca•QUESTION: Does a table top really Need biscuits/dominoes/dowels, or is glue enough?4·2 years agoClamp & glue is plenty strong. I’ve built a couple of desks with this approach plus a large dining table.
DavidPto Nature and Gardening@beehaw.org•Managing Moles, Voles, and other VarmintsEnglish3·2 years agoWe get a lot of voles which enjoy eating our garden and saplings. I’ve decent success by:
- garden: putting a wire mesh fence around it with 1/4" hardware cloth buried 4" underground
- trees: plastic protective tubes around the trunks and also keeping the grass/weeds around then cut short. Voles like the protection of tall grass.
Back when I started my software career (2001) we did paper code review printouts in Araxis Merge. We also didn’t have source control back then.

DavidPto Nature and Gardening@beehaw.org•Check out this snakey boi friend I found in my yard!3·2 years agoNice! Snakes are a sign of a healthy, chemical-free environment.
My cats would have loved to use the top as a scratching pad! Look out 😅
Nice work on the wrapping, it looks very clean.
Could you swap out the back legs with longer ones to help the thigh clearance?
Kudos for responsibly taking down the instance 👍
DavidPto Woodworking@lemmy.ca•Just upgraded, does anyone have pointers for when I unbox/setup?4·2 years agoCheck the calibration:
- Confirm that the outfeed table is parallel to the cutter head.
- Confirm that the outfeed table is level with the top dead center of the cut.
- Then confirm that the infeed table is parallel to the outfeed
- Lastly confirm that the fence, when set to 90, is square to the outfeed table.
This should all the the case right out off the pallet but it’s worth a check.
It’s Sound ID feature works quite well and is fun to use. Try it!
I’ve noticed the same with laminated pieces. While I’ve never bothered to solve this problem I think you’re on the right track, treating it more like a twice turned bowl.
I relief on polled notifications from Sync. Worked just fine for me.
Awesome! Thank goodness the kiddos like the set.
Dust collection is a great application for 3D printing… Years ago I broke the bag adapter for my sanding station so I made a replacement!
I’d go with an oil-based polyurethane. Stain is your choice. While water based poly will have much less odor I’ve found it to be less durable.
Oil based poly will smell much much worse than shellac. Water based poly wouldn’t be so bad.
Can you check the photo? It’s not loading for me
