    we all make mistakes from time to time whilst woodworking, what was your most embarrassing one or most painful one?

    Often times the jointer tables are not true, both flat and parallel, that can lead to undesired dimensional changes.

      Hello Leland,

      Thank you for the question, here is the experts reply:

      You should plan on sanding wood after it has been planed. I have never measured how much material I remove when sanding material that has been planed, but 1/64 to 1/128 is probably in the range.

      Cheers,
      Paul

    When making a resin table top will the resin glue the two parts together on its own or does there need to be a way to have the resin to adhere to the wood.

      Hello Leonard,

      If you’re using two separate resin sections and wanting to join them then yes, resin will hold them together. I’d suggest scoring them and then joining.

      If you’re joining a resin section to wood I’d sand the wood area with 60 or 80 grit sandpaper, as well as the epoxy section, and then do the join. Also, keep in mind the placement of the joint– a high stress point may need more reinforcement project depending.

      Good luck,
      Jess, Woodworkers Guild of America
