I'm trying to solve the exact same problem with my dryer exhaust and am working with my GC on a similar custom pedestal. Love your build here! Any trouble accessing the dryer exhaust duct for cleaning with this approach, or are you happy with most of the rigid duct hidden "permanently" in the box? Edit: Also curious how you secured the ducting on the bottom? Are you able to reach in through the box with drawers removed?

Glad you found some inspiration! I loved the challenge of a completely knock-down pattern. If you put a bottom in it make sure it's reinforced, as the dirt can get quite heavy! I'd also recommend lining it somehow, with some drainage holes. The wood will last much longer.

We bought heavy duty rubber cups for the feet. We still get a bit of vibration with unbalanced loads. I’d recommend a lip or trim piece in front to keep the machines from walking off the pedestals for those times you don’t realize the load is imbalanced. Or screw the cups to the top before putting the machines in place. That may work even better.

I may have missed it - Why the jig and bandsaw and not a compound mitre saw?
@SkyValleyStudio
@SkyValleyStudio 3 ай бұрын
Easy answer. I rarely use my miter saw. The band saw is safer, especially for small pieces. Try cutting 1/4” slices on a miter saw. Also, the band saw removes about 1/16” material even after planing smooth. The miter saw will be closer to 1/8” or more.

I’ve never heard of shellac being applied before a poly finish before. Shellac is a soft finish and poly a hard finish. I was taught at trade school that a soft finish should always be applied on top of a hard finish. I was asked to inspect some 3m high bank doors where the new finish was peeling off. On inspection, the joiner had applied the shellac before the poly and being in direct sun light, the shellac had melted and failed to provide a firm surface for the poly to sit on. The poly was delaminating and peeling off in sheets that looked like steamed wall paper. I think your fabulous looking table may suffer the same fate if it is left by a window in direct sunlight.
@SkyValleyStudio
@SkyValleyStudio 4 ай бұрын
Shellac in this case is simply “sanding sealer”. If poly is coming off in sheets, it’s probably the lack of sanding be l sufficiently between coats. Poly needs the surface roughed up between every coat in order for it to stick. Thanks for the compliment and feedback.

Oh. And if you read Flexner on Finishing you’ll see where this concept comes from. I get a much more even stain I’d I shellac first, and a much more even surface as the alcohol raised the grain, but the shellac fills the pores slightly.

A very useful video. How do you prevent the glue used on the string inlay from contaminating the surface of the spalted maple? BTW, once the glue has set to hold the inlay in place I’ve had good luck using a card scraper to reduce the inlay to the depth of the groove.
@SkyValleyStudio
@SkyValleyStudio 6 ай бұрын
Use just enough glue so there is very little squeeze out. Use a card scraper to clean the surface of remaining glue. Or use hide glue, which cleans up very easily in the gummy state. Kind of like rubber cement.

@ramsayholmes4913 Your inlay should be proud of the surface slightly anyway, and needs to be sanded or planned or scraped down anyway. If you are super concerned about penetration and you’re using oil and wax on the board go ahead and do that before you cut out for inlay. Just don’t soak it. The wax will keep the glue from penetrating. Your cuts will be fresh wood.

Hi Sky. My bandsaw blade does not make very smooth cuts. What kind of blade do you like to use for cutting inlay?
@SkyValleyStudio
@SkyValleyStudio 11 ай бұрын
Cutting inlay requires a finer tooth set than thicker wood. Often, I’m cutting pieces that are no more than a half an inch thick and sometimes less. This means I need to have at least 6 to 12 TPI. Tensioning the blade correctly is necessary, as is having a good sharp blade. I have a video on sharpening blades that may help. Setting the guide blocks or bearings correctly both above and below is also critical. As for the brand, I’ve had acceptable success with Timberwolf, but better success with a ennox blade. My go-to general blade is an alternating 3/4 slip tooth Woodslicer.

Hit hide glue is a little more versatile in that you mix it for the particular application. But if the woods is cold (think winter garage) it cools the glue too fast. I still prefer it over old brown glue. Just a choice.
