wdwerker Posted August 28, 2017 Report Share Posted August 28, 2017 I understand that ! Every time I look a really long & accurate stop system the price is astonishing. Being able to set multiple stops for frequently used lengths and leave them for the duration of a job would be so convenient. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You might even be able to make one that fits the length of the duct that your can is currently filling. I made you a highly technical drawing. Exactly what isle in walmart can I find a wood doodad? Knowing ahead of time will save me time looking or finding someone that works in that isle. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never had anything better than a scrap piece of wood screwed to the top of the table for an "accurate" stop. At least it has a relief under the important edge to clear sawdust. If I'm remembering right, this one got used for 152 tenon cheeks on a $38k job. Then it got moved to its next accurate location for the other 152. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just landed a full kitchen and island job. It couldnt have come at a better time if you no what I mean. Its a red oak job with flat panel doors so its not a bad job to do. Some people still want oak and I find it easy to work with. Whats your job like? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have the face frames put together. I'm really slow because I'm learning as I go, making mistakes, and doing it when I'm not working elsewhere. I'm not a "woodworker" yet. Maybe someday. 8 minutes ago, mat60 said: I just landed a full kitchen and island job. It couldnt have come at a better time if you no what I mean.

I'm building a set out of hickory. One wall and no island. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mat60 Posted September 23, 2017 Report Share Posted September 23, 2017 Like you I will be starting with the face frames then doors and draws after that. I like to build the boxes last because they take up so much room in the shop and they go fairly quick. If there is anything I can help you with please feel free to ask. I been doing this for awhile but there are times I still need to ask things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My progress is so slow, it isn't much fun yet. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
