Fair play, but Helmi is to thick for a hvlp we(my painter mate) tried it, prob is you cant thin helmi top coat it need an airless system to push it through. Send me a pm if you can and ill get him to call you hes very helpfull....talks alot tho!!

JonR

I have been using Morrells 501 primer . Helmi is to thick for my hvlp but the Helmi primer went through ok with some flotrol added and a smidge of water. Re job 1 I dont make doors with plant ons for shaker style it throws the door out of balance if you have to do it that way then maybe a 3 or 4mm m...

Thought of doing your own finishing at all? I bought a 4 stage hvlp fuji spray unit from Axminster but have only been using waterbourne primer to date but I feel more confident about having a go at top coats now, all that I primed was hand finished. What areas of south London exactly? I got a mate w...

Could have have been Teknos sprayed finish. The job that we did the sash renovation on had new box sashes bought for the extension and they came over from Lithuania. They were spray finished in Teknos and were faultless....and cheap!

A bit about it in this thread that may help you out, your post may get over looked in this section so probably ask in the woodworking topic for more help.

If your near Faversham i can put you onto a guy who is conservation approved for his box sashes, he uses Accoya(Google that) for all his exterior work. I have made 4 box sashes with Accoya myself but next down from Accoya for me would be Utile though some use Sapele also. Last year we renovated some...

Put an ad on Freecycle for off cuts of wooden worktop oak/beech/bamboo, i have some but your just a bit to far away ! You see them on Ebay also at times. Making up wide boards with small pieces make it more stable less likely to warp. Some timber species will be more stable than others in a wide pla...

JonR

Hi, where are you located ? somebody here who does joinery may have off cuts to sell on or donate.

JonR

Stanley Bridges stuff going free, plenty of it. Its in Welling London/Kent border if interested pm me and ill put you onto my cousin who was given it from a garage clear out

JonR

Being Bamboo i guess your an Eco product company ? Where are you located ?

JonR

Birch ply and maybe CNC cut would be the way to go I reckon.

JonR

Maybe, but acrylic paint is water based and it seems it keeps swelling the mdf fibres and if its a cheap mdf it will be quite fluffy below the surface compounding the problem. Medite and MR Medite are much denser and better at coping with a bit of moisture. I don't use standard mdf for anything alwa...

JonR

I would chisel the raised area back below the surface and then fill with a 2 pack filler sand smooth and start over with the painting process.

JonR

I go down my local timber supplier and sift through the PAR racks grab the clearest as i can get then face laminate it, that is when i do use pine for joinery which is n't often.

JonR

Any facility for a home work shop at all ?

JonR

I might be alright if it was my friend who was borrowing the workshop for free *cough cough* but if he was employing somebody and wanted them to come and use it i would swerve it. Try the guy who runs courses in Scotney castle he may hire out some machine time and some work space next to him is a Na...

Give LPD doors a call and ask about veneer thickness on there doors, i have fitted engineered Oak doors that have construction veneer faces of 3mm and they have held up very well. I have seen veneer lifting like on yours also.

I have upgraded the drivers side barrel for the Hykee replock with a tapered bezel and pu...

For myself i would go stick built but i am a carpenter, i have put up 6 large timber frame kits and done stick built timber frame extensions, the kits do go up quick for sure and the last one me and my lad did had flooring cassettes so no floor joists to do which was nice. Which ever way you go you ...

JonR

Throwing this out to see if there is any interest before sticking them on Ebay. I have come across a used digital Phase converter so the Transwave i have if all goes well when digital one is wired up will be going spare, its about 18 months old and used very little as workshop stuff is occasional fo...

JonR

I have messaged him.

Cheers

P.S Any door makers here, wardrobe shaker style white primed usual stuff, i have been doing these but thinking of outsourcing on these also.
Sure there was a guy here who started a company up whos a member on here?

JonR

Got a cost from Probox £816 inc vat and delivery for the 4 all in, i guess its worth it in the long run less hassle for us even though we could make them.

Thanks for the replies

JonR

Anybody here geared up for making dovetail draw boxes ? costing up a wardrobe that needs 4 no draws in Walnut for approx a 900 in frame carcass, unfinished or finished don't mind with Blum/Grass/hettich softclose runners. Any links to draw makers that you have used and would recommend would be appre...

JonR

Is your out feed bed adjustable at all or fixed, are there any springs under the blades to give some resistance when setting height, is your infeed thicknessing roller clogged with sappy wood possibly ? I have read on here about Tersa blade conversion kits and that's what i was looking at until i bo...

Could you batch run all your components, stiles you could leave as long as Ash comes in at and the rails cut and tenoned at your standard stock door widths and then cut and assemble as you get your orders, my thinking is that rather than a door sitting about for months and possibly going wonky it wo...

Owners name is Mark he may ship out to you, worth a try.

JonR

I would post your question in the "power tools and machinery" for best suggestions, the Felder combi would be my choice.

Not sure if the fella is still there but he used to work for Wadkin for a long time and knows all things Wadkin apparently, no harm in asking it could be Graham not 100% sorry.
