Thread: Bench Project
Post: RE: Bench Project

Post: RE: Workbench
I used M&T to attach the top to the legs. It was not as hard as it seems. I inverted the top and the leg frame, traced around all four tenons, and removed much of the waster with a large forstner bit. |

Thread: Moisture Meter Suggestion
Post: RE: Moisture Meter Suggestion
Would electricity waste energy (amps?) in seeking 18% moisture at a slightly greater depth over the 14% moisture between the probes for less resistance? Moisture is present either way. |

Is there a lot of variation in MC from the depth of the pin and lets say the 3/4” depth reading of the pinless? |

Post: RE: Moisture Meter Suggestion
Being partial to items made in the USA, the Ligno-Scanner D by Lignomat is an attractive option, but the cost is a bit high at $210.

That was an excellent video. Nice shop too. Cleaning up old tools and making new tools look a bit older is so much fun. |
