Game board staining advice
First time working with wood. The board has many flaws but I am happy with it so far as a start.
I am wondering I want to stain the top red and make the holes for marbles to fit in stained dark brown or black. Is this a possibility?
How would I go about doing something like that?
Face jointing resulting in convex boards?
Hi all, using the Porter Cable 6†benchtop jointer pictured here, and for face jointing the first few boards it worked magnificently. However, now I’m running some slightly twisted poplar through it and the faces I’m running through are turning out convex. I’m barely using any downward pressure and am only registering on the outfeed table. As far as I can tell my tables are parallel. Any ideas as to why this might happen?
How did I do for my first project?
This was my first project (aside from small projects like baseboards). Not my original idea…I adapted some plans from Pinterest. Any feedback is appreciated!! And any recommendations on paint color for legs/shelf would be helpful as well (I’m thinking navy?). TYIA
