What’s going on with this stain?

What about it?

Howdy. Just making some shelves. I sanded the boards with 120 grit. Vacuumed them off. Now I’m testing out stains. Any ideas what’s causing these tiny lines that are impervious to stain? This area is Minwax stain. I also tried some water based wood dye in another area with the same result. I believe the wood is white oak. Appreciate any help.

Question on modular wall cabinets

What about it?

I wouldnt mind trying my hand at some Danish modular wall cabinets and I am trying to figure the best way of setting up the mounting hardware. It looks like holes on the rails are drilled at an angle. I am assuming there is some sort of dowel on the shelf side but wanted to see if anyone here knew how this is typically done or if there was some kind of metal hardware still available to do this.

Finally….some new (to me) toys!!!

What about it?

After years of working on an old Bosch 1000 job site saw, I snagged this beauty for a song at auction. While I was at it, decided to bump up my jointer game 2”.
