I got an email announcing it so yeah, I believe it is a new product. The use of a chisel for size is interesting.

  what color(s) paint for porch
Posted by: DogwoodTales - 09-15-2015, 12:45 PM - Forum: Home Improvement - Replies (3)

I'm pretty plane Jane so I'd go with white. If it's pressure treated wood (looks like it), I give it at least a few months before I paint it because it's still pretty wet if it's a new installation. I usually end up doing my outside work in the Fall because of the nice temps then let it go through a winter before doing any painting.

  An overhead light for workbench
Posted by: JSpill - 09-15-2015, 11:40 AM - Forum: Woodworking Power Tools - Replies (6)

I installed one of these LED shop lights above my workbench a couple of months ago after reading the HD reviews. It's brightness (Bright White, 4000K) is mid-range, which I prefer over the brighter Daylight lights (5000K and above).

  Baby Crib paint
Posted by: Scoony - 09-15-2015, 09:56 AM - Forum: Finishing - Replies (1)

It depends. All most all finishes that you can buy as a non-business are non-toxic when cured (dry).
That being said I'd try for an essentially food grade finish..
The classic is Bee's wax and MO sightly darkens the wood.
Use shellac and tint with food coloring white this works but I hope that you have a wholesale source. (You can use a quick coat of shellac then dust with TiO2 to get a white but I've never tried that).
Make your own milk paint then topcoat with shellac or not.

Use something else non-toxic IS NOT food safe,

That is so cool!

I've seen a program on TV called Redwood Kings that sometimes shows stuff like that.

It's amazing to me how old and huge those trees can get. Must be quite a privilege and a lot of fun to work with them.
