    Sheets of Formica and/or Plastic Laminate in the Triangle Area

    Does anyone know of a cheap spot to get horizontal grade laminate (1/16" thick) in or around the triangle? The BORG has it for $55 (a little on the high side for my taste) a full sheet and I really don't need whole sheets (4' x 8'), partial sheets of at 30" in one dimension would probably work...

    Use for Plastic Tubing

    Having lost a recent bout with pneumonia:wsad:, it appears I will be on oxygen for the foreseeable future. It seems the tubing associated with this is considered to be "consumable" and requires periodic replacement. Once replaced, the oxygen supply company has no use for it. As a result, I...

    Anyone know how to fix a cracked plastic auto lense?

    I have a orange turn signal light on a car that got busted, I glued it together the best I could but a few pieces are still missing from the plastic. Apparently the colored tape is not good enough for you to pass inspection, so now I just have clear duct tape over the remaining holes. Does...

    Plastic Liner Bags for HVLP?

    The question may seem so simple that it's silly, but it's a sign of my ignorance on the subject... I have a Fuji Q4 HVLP system and some plastic liners for the fluid cup on the gun. In theory, you put this in the cup and put the finish in it so simplify cleanup. However, I've yet to do it ...

    No More Plastic Knobs !

As I venture into the wonderful realm of handtools (not ready for $100+ per) I took a cheap Stanley #4 and replaced the black plastic knobs for a hand turned front knob and Scrollsawed/routed back handle ( Thanks ScottM for the...

    Plastic bag carrier - wip

    Any more it's a bit of a hassle for me to manage plastic bags from the store with one hand and a cane with the other. Definitely didn't want to make multiple trips, but those bags do tend to dig in. So, took inspiration from this. View image in gallery Definitely did not want to pay whatever...

    Raleigh CL - 55 Gallon Drums & Plastic Barrels

    Not mine. These would be useful for a cyclone/2-stage dust colector. They look clean on the outside but not sure about the inside. The price looks good ($10 each). With the recent craze over rain barrels, I imagine the plastic drums won't last long. http://raleigh.craigslist.org/tls/609632646.html

    Ever use Plastic Resin glue? Thoughts?

    If you've watched the television show Wood Works with David Marks then you've probably seen him using plastic resin glue. I've seen it enough on the show to get curious ... so I did some research. He uses it because it sets slowly, allowing for more assembly time. However after some research...

    Cutting the tops off of plastic drums

    I don't know if there is a right way, but this was my way. I'm very happy with the results. I clamped my saw to a right angle bracket I made from some 1/2" MDF and 2x4s. Clamped that to a piece of a solid core door on some sawhorses. Then I laid some sheet goods under the drum to bring it to...

    No plastic resin glue to be found

    I've been very frustrated trying to find some weldwood locally to laminate my bubinga and paduak boards for the guitar neck. That was the recommendation to avoid creep. But nobody stocks it. Shipping is more $ than the glue! I researched some online and didn't find any real downside to...

    WTB - 55 gallon plastic drums

    Hey, When you all aren't making sawdust, where do you buy your 55 gal. plastic drums? I'm looking for 2-10. Preferably food grade and open head. Also not too far away from Raleigh so pick up would be an option. Todd
