I feel your.pain!
Nice new umbrella, glass top patio table and a wind gust.
Now have an unusable umbrella, a shattered glass table and an unhappy wife!
And I was using a heavy duty umbrella base.

Your door looks great!

 

[larry4406]

Just up the road from you @jar944

Been windy as hell since I got up this morning.

Finally seems to be dying down.

 

[jar944]

Back in business, now as a light support

 

[Finallygotit]

I'm very surprised you were able to un-mangle that mess.

 

[cccoltsicehockey]

I'm very surprised you were able to un-mangle that mess.

Agreed. I thought that was as good as scrap at that point.

 

[jar944]

Took the day off to paint because it was going to be nice dry weather...

Just enough rain to be a problem

Yeah I was surprised to see and observed rain on the forecast this morning.

Weather liars changed their tune since yesterday.

 

[jar944]

When your wife keeps asking how much longer to paint...lol.

Considering it was sprayed outside at night in the dark, I'll call it a win.

 

[casmurbax]

Looks pretty dam good....

What kind of a sprayer did you use?

 

[jar944]

Thanks.

I'm spraying with a cheap graco airless x5 for the topcoat and a old lt15 (same basic model) for the primer. Both primer and topcoat were sprayed with 308fflp tips.

I had been using a fuji 4 stage hvlp, but it's not great for large areas of for thick finish, and this was both.

 

[casmurbax]

Any updates?

 

[jar944]

Any updates?

I made a mess..

Some plumbing and electrical before I can get the wainscot paneling in place.


Got some runs in the doors when I sprayed vertically, realized after sanding back and spraying horizontally it was hard humidity levels and thr morning dew that was causing the issue. 12 hours later the paint was wet, but one door sprayed 15 minutes prior was dry.. timing...

 

[Finallygotit]

Looks like you have gophers in your walls.

 

[jar944]

10pm to 1am are not ideal working hours, but it works.


Also if you shoot four 2.5" nails into the water supply nail plate it's time to call it a night. Tgr nail plate did it's job fortunately. In my defense it was 12:30 in the morning, but tgr hole in the drywall was already there..

 

[jar944]

Took the next two days off to work to get thr master bedroom done , but my wife bought a slushie machine yesterday so..

 

[Finallygotit]

You poor guy! How many slushie breaks did you take?

 

[Boostingaz]

Nice!!

My wife got one too. It's kind of a jack of all trades ones. We can make anything from soft serve ice cream to margaritas!

 

[loganb]

You guys are horrible influences....

But for the sake of science ya must keep us updated on the satisfaction with said devices

My kids approve the soft serve feature I can assure you that

Had the neighbors over we killed a gallon of wine slushie. So far it seems like a solid purchase. Not going to lie, I'd like a soft serve option.

 

[casmurbax]

Lucky with the nail gun.

Your wife was very thoughtful.

How is anyone sleeping at that hour?

We have moved into the inlaw suite in the basement, baby is in his room with a noise machine. I can run the shop vac, circular saw and nailer all at once and he doesn't hear a thing.

I worked till 1am last night and everyone else was sound asleep

 

[jar944]

Also works well for spiked milkshakes.

 

[gearhead1960]

....just where are you in NOVA? I might need to stop in and make sure the slushies are up to standard for the Commonwealth....

 

[Finallygotit]

You're evil. Stop it I say!

 

[jar944]

Why change bits, when you can just swap routers..

 

[M.Brane]

I have the same approach to grinding.

Jar: I’m sorry I don’t check your threads more often cause I always love your work and skills. Best of luck on getting the master done so you can move out of the basement. I recall several times usually when my bride was pregnant when I’d be updating the kitchen or bathroom or something and I’m happy those days are in my past so good luck.

Do you still love your timber tech (or was it trex) decking? Any tips on cutting it? Which blade and maybe in the morning before sun heats it up to get actual measurements. I’m not going to picture frame my 32x16 deck so I’ll have exposed ends. I can try to cut ends next to house so factory ends are exposed or would a 60 tooth blade and maybe painters tape on top where I’m cutting do ok?

Enjoy Mother’s Day !!

The room is slowly coming along.

Would be faster if I wasn't scribing everything in



The deck was timbertech, no complaints it's been holding up great. As for blades, I was just using whatever generic blades I had. I didn't want to ruin a good trim blade. I ended up running everything long and cutting thr ends with my track saw (28t general purpose Tenryu blade).

I ended up working on the deck in all sorts of temperatures so I'm no help on measurement differences.

I like how you moved the electric outlets in your master bedroom to the baseboard region and turned them horizontal.

We used to offer wainscotting in dining rooms of our houses and would do that.

Yeah, I strongly dislike them interrupting the panel layout, so it's either move them to hit a wainscot stile, or move them into the baseboard. Baseboard is easier (as long as the wiring comes from the floor...) and looks better.

 

[jar944]

As an aside I grabbed this #90 bullnose plane since the scribe was too too curvy for my block plane. I think it's my new go to for this type of work. When skewed the sole is only marginally longer than a spokeshave so perfect for tighter curves.

Im also considering the Milwaukee m12 power planer for a lighter one handed option compared to my makita for scribes like this.

 

[jar944]

I wish I'd have picked up a 1/4" spiral flush trim bit awhile ago. I was cutting these outlet holes with a 1/2x1/2" bit in two passes adjusting the depth between. Ordered the downshear spiral and wondered why I waited.


The 1/2x1/2 which needed the corners chiseled out as well.

I bought 3 flavors of the Woodpeckers Ultra-Shear carbide spiral bits some time back. First time I used one, it was eye opening. WOW!

To use a cliché.... Like a hot knife through butter.

 

[casmurbax]

I was wondering how you were going to those outlets.... I never seen a bit like that before. Looks like it did wonders.

I've typically cut them with a jigsaw, but this is 1000x easier and likely 5-10x faster.



Still need to address the plumbing for the coffee bar sink.

 

[casmurbax]

Your work is absolutely beautiful.

 

[larry4406]

I like how your OG style molding is on an actual wood backer.

At the day job, the OG would have been applied directly to the drywall. Then the base molding, drywall, OG, and chair rail piece at top would all be painted semi gloss.

I did the same "cheat" in our dining room and foyer. I didn't bother to move the outlets to the base molding though.

 

[jar944]

My parents came to visit yesterday so I needed to finish enough to move back in..

Looks beautiful with an even better finish.
Great work.
