Hard shell is the red oak of tacos and flour tortillas are poplar, or worse. I agree. If you are eating an authentic taco. But sometimes you just want some white people tacos. Like.. shredded cheddar, lettuce, hamburger, etc. I think there is room for both. I like to make both. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trialbyfire Posted October 13, 2016 Report Share Posted October 13, 2016 We need to expand capital punishment to include things like painting a wall without first emoving the switch plates or outlet covers.

Popular Post estesbubba Posted October 15, 2016 Popular Post Report Share Posted October 15, 2016 Got wood? Definitely not the walk around and pick through the bins type place but they are very friendly to hobbiests. You tell them what you want and they bring out a pallet on a forklift and you can pick through it. Great quality and prices and their 4/4 is 15/16 and you can usually get 7/8" finished if needed. This is a small part of their inventory. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wdwerker Posted October 16, 2016 Report Share Posted October 16, 2016 3rd one looks like birch or maple. First 2 look like chestnut. I've only seen old beams that were resawn, nothing new. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chestnut Posted October 16, 2016 Report Share Posted October 16, 2016 I typed this on my phone and should have elaborated more. The 2nd and 3rd are the face grain and edge grain of the same board. It's not maple or birch. It's also really dense. The little piece by my hand scale has density similar to Jatoba or some of those heft exotics. I think the chestnut is lumber from way back when it was harvested. My friend has been doing woodworking and refinishing for 40 some years (or so he says). Either way it's quite weathered and will need some milling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you do the math like I did and take the height of each corner and calculate their relative sizes based on the perspective of the drawing, you'll see that the bottom layer would have to be very thin with a dangerously thin amount of meat left on the side below the dado for that to be the case. It's a rabbet. (I'm joking, I did not do that) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Immortan D Posted October 17, 2016 Report Share Posted October 17, 2016 24 minutes ago, Lester Burnham said: Same here. 2 each on the left and right sides and 1 on the bottoms of every side. Yeah? Add 4 more because rabbets meet rabbets at the bottom 13 rabbets total, because maybe there's a spare rabbet somewhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wtnhighlander Posted October 17, 2016 Report Share Posted October 17, 2016 Or the bottom might be open, and sitting on a table. I only count what I can see, 4 rabbets. What I don't see is the joke, unless most folks think they are looking for rabbits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woodenskye Posted October 18, 2016 Report Share Posted October 18, 2016 So I was watching this documentary about samurai swords this evening. When the saw is sent to the polisher, it goes between different grits of stones for 10 days before it can go to the highest grit stone the polisher uses. Imagine how sharp your plane blade or chisel would be. In all it takes 6 months to make. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
