I think you are on to something here. Saw online somewhere that thin veneers can be made by edge planing a board. The strip can then be glued and wrapped around the tenon to take up the extra space. Think this is what I’ll try.
Thanks for replying. I’m curious how the screws hold up. In my experience I’ve only seen metal fasteners damage the joint even more as it flexes.
There doesn’t seem to be a straight forward way to set up a tv tuner.
I’m also dual wielding. I think the only thing really keeping me on plex is there doesn’t seem to be a straight forward way to set up a tv tuner.
The only difference with the Danish oil is the addition of some varnish. Apply enough coats and it’ll start to build up and might help a little with stain resistance. Otherwise you would need something more durable like a film finish. I think maybe laquer or a CA finish would work well for oil/grease resistance.
Some people don’t put any finish on handles and let natural oils from their hands build a patina. If you don’t like the look then some kind of film finish is probably what you need.
I just try different handle shapes until I find ones I like.
In the US most woodturning/woodworking supply stores carry kits. In this case I took the guts from a Harbor Freight screwdriver, turned a new handle out of cherry, filling the cracks with colored epoxy, made a ferrule from a brass plumbing fitting, and put it all together. The handle is finished with Danish oil.
I’ve done this with great success on kitchen cabinet hinges. I didn’t drill them out, just broke off wooden toothpicks to match the depth of the hole, covered with wood glue, put them in the hole, then put the screw back in. Works amazingly well.
Y’all are as bad as Reddit. Yes I see it. No it’s not intentional.
