Have a header for a 6 ft wide non-load bearing opening for an interior wall between two areas. Having a HVAC drop added on one side of the header through a closet on second floor but wanted to know how large an opening(s) through the header I can have to let "some or about 1/2" of the air from...

Sounds like fixturing is more important than brad/pin nailing for sure using a slower "wood glue". I take it you used that technique for edge bonding the crown?

Have a covered but otherwise open deck in New England area with a good quality Epson projector and a screen. Want to build a PVC enclosure to house the projector for a few months a year to provide second level rain/condensation protection and a level of security while allowing projection and...

No and I am sorry for not getting back to you. Been really distracted with "life" including stubborn HVAC problems and failures and completely brain farted this subject. For the next few weeks or months I am sticking with what I have and perhaps be better prepared to deal with this then.

Not to beat this point to death but I don't recall saying fine thread. I did mention pocket screws that I use course thread screws. Those screws specifically designed for this board sounds like a good idea.

Thank you for clearing that up. For my project I would prefer 3 foot wide panels to reduce waste

Like most us here, I assume, i far too often find my blood on my project not knowing I was even cut.

I do plan to have a face frame on the front but it would only be PVC and only offer a little stiffness. These boxes would be stacked 3 high so except for the top one there would be TWO 3/4 panels which I can fasten together to get a 1-1/2" thick panel. Probably have a center vertical member of...

Do you rabbit for glue surface area or to mill away the melamine for the glue? Both?

The boxes would house small animals temporarily needing daily wet rag or squeegee cleaning in controlled humidity environment. Not a typical cabinet environment but far from hose down conditions. Maybe closer to a high volume restraunt environment. Currently have regular plywood with a low VOC...

I do understand the acronym. Seems I might be better off using a marine grade plywood and a durable finish

So that's a false description? aka a lie?

This doesn't specifically say one side only. This is what I was looking at https://www.homedepot.com/p/Veranda-3-4-in-x-4-ft-x-8-ft-Melamine-White-MDF-Panel-461877/100070209#overlay

Never worked with MDF but that was my impression that it wouldn't hold well in the end grain.

I don't think I will need this too long, maybe 5 years. Tried to find someplace within 100 miles to buy that MDO and so far no luck. Thanks

I want to fabricate "cabinet like" boxes from single sided 3/4 melamine MDF panels with smooth surface inside. Top and bottom panels about 60x33 and side panels about 36x33. I want to use 1/4 melamine for rear panel again with smooth surface inside. I am probably going to use 1x4 PVC trim boards...

More than I bargained for but looks like it might be worth the effort if I want to spray finishes someday. Thanks, I think... lol

Direct off compressor now. Not a setup I can readily run any pipes or a radiator as some suggested.

Hmmm, I have two not very flexible medium grade hoses I think about 25 foot long. I use a 50 foot flexilla hose for dragging around connected to tools usually. Will one the 25 footers be okay coiled up in about a 4-5 diameter to provide the cooling you suggest? I keep them near the compressor if...

Just trying to clean up the air going to my tools, mostly brad and pin nailers (rarely a framing nailer and 1/2 impact wrench both using much more CFM). I don't have a practical way to mount the filter directly to the compressor connecting with rigid piping so I planned to mount the filter to a...
