Gina Intheburg 🇺🇦 🌻 🥥🌴<p>Hey, all you <a href="https://mastodon.world/tags/Woodworkers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Woodworkers</span></a>/#FurnitureMakers out there: </p><p>These were not on this table when movers put my stuff in storage. 9 months later, when they moved my stuff back into my place, these dings were there (plus some other new scratches).</p><p>At 1st I thought they were punch marks from something, but after taking these pix, it looks like dowels that have shrunk &amp; took bits of the teak veneer with them.</p><p>Before I trash an otherwise decent piece of furniture, can this be fixed? If so, how do I do it?</p>
Aaron O<p>Someone shared making it podcast with me, it's great, looking for others which are similar. <a href="https://better.boston/tags/Creators" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Creators</span></a>, <a href="https://better.boston/tags/geeks" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>geeks</span></a>, <a href="https://better.boston/tags/hackers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>hackers</span></a>, <a href="https://better.boston/tags/woodworkers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>woodworkers</span></a>, <a href="https://better.boston/tags/diy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>diy</span></a></p>
Angela<p>Hey, <a href="https://mastodon.nz/tags/woodworkers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>woodworkers</span></a> of Mastodon. Little help?</p><p>My next <a href="https://mastodon.nz/tags/DIY" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>DIY</span></a> project is a bit daunting, a bit beyond my experience in wood shop.</p><p>I inherited a friend's ottoman after she moved overseas. The padded lid started sagging, so I pulled out some staples and looked beneath.</p><p>It's made of MDF (ETA: or chipboard?), which must've gone *crunch* when something too heavy weighed on it (could have been my kid, could have been the kids at the neighbours who were holding it for my friend after she moved).</p><p>Anyway+</p>
Matt Wilcox<p>Any <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/woodworkers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>woodworkers</span></a> out there, especially British ones who know what I mean when i say "I have a *small* garage workshop"...</p><p>Anyone got recommendations on cheap but functional electric thicknessers and planers for stock preparation?</p><p>I am tired of flattening, squaring, and thicknessing by hand with a 100+yr old hand-plane. But I don't have much space, and I don't do enough woodwork to warrant spending very much.</p><p>More a question of if there's anything worth bothering with given those constraints?</p>
