Why would you joint the edge of a board that has yet to be faced? Also, why would you joint the edge and THEN flatten the face? Improper procedures should not be taught.
Honestly, the faces didn't need flattening at all to begin with - they were already surfaced on 3 sides (as the video says) - but you're right, if I was actually relying on my jointer to do the flattening, the face should go first, and then the edge. My new shop is almost built, so in future videos things will be more likely to happen in the right order!
Awesome.....Thank you for sharing.
FIRST?! Can’t wait to see more!
Thanks for the video! I managed to build something similar thanks to this!
That's awesome!
What are the approximate dimensions please??? I've got to try it. I envision a small scale train layout in there!!
It's roughly 2 feet by 3 and a half if I remember correct, and 18 inches high or so.
How do you put stuff in there to display?
There is a little finger hole at the edge of the plexiglass top so you can pull it up.
