How do you joint a board wider than 6"?
786559
jointing edges are not a problem but face jointing over 6 inches presents several problems. First you run one side through then run the other unplaned area through. You need to take a pass one after the other to keep them even. You should be sure to adjust the fence to 1/2 the board's width so that you are able to be uniform in the passes. Ideally you should use a surface planer or large drum sander greater than the dimensions of the board you wish to plane

I only use this for jointing edges (which it does very well). Anything wider than 4-5 inches I do on my Dewalt 13-inch planer. Safer & smoother.

My wood floor is old and there are spaces between the boards so I haven't even tried. Sorry not to be be morehelpful.

Several ways to screw them together. 1) Use a fixed continuous 90 degree corner to allow just one hand to create a tight fit as the other hand applies the drill and screw. 2) Clamp down one board so its fixed and use one hand to hold the other board tight to the clamped board, so you can screw it with the other hand, or 3) clamp one board down flat to a table (bench) top, and use another clamp to secure the other board vertically and you can use BOTH hands to apply the screws with a drill. Either one handed screwing or two handed screwing, your choice. One handed is easy if you have a magnetic screw bit for the screw head. The strongest joints are glued and screwed.

4" sticks would work best, although you could probably use a 6" stick, it would be on a slight angle if you did.

You screw in the bracket to the wall with the center slot pointing up..you measure from the ground to the center of the hanger.68"...you should have one screw that is bigger then the others.put the larger screw in the center of the back of board..you should see a mark..then you put the 3 plastic pieces on the outer edges of the back of board.these are for stability. You will need to adjust the larger center screw that you put in the center of the board, until it is able to hook on the bracket without wobbling

You could absolutely use a 16" board with these brackets. I forget what size board I used but I know it had a few inches overhang.

The board I got was 12'' wide alright, but the length was only 7 1/2' or 7 3/4' -- slightly less than 8'. The two bolts for the board were 6'' each. I had to buy a similar 7'' ones from Home Depot (about $6 each). 6 1/2'' bolts would have worked fine.

I took 2 pieces of 3/8" plywood and connected them side by side. Using the place where they connected as the center point. Left as least one foot on each side to help with space in order to put puzzle together. Sanded the whole board smooth, putting the puzzle together now and then glueing it down.

I used a bigger screw with deeper threads. I had some screws around that were designed for fastening hardy backer board to wood. The problem with these chairs is the cheap particle wood in the seats. Particle board doesn't hold small screws very well. I'm not sure I would have bought them for this job had I not had them already. There are plenty of wider screws available that would work just as well. Good luck.

As others said, the screws provided go through pre-drilled holes in the black shelf links into the 2x4's. I have a vague recollection of attaching the horizontal boards first, then flipping them to attach to the verticals. Don't know if anyone else tried that but it worked for us.

I did, but I am very handy, an ordinary person would probably not be able to do it, but you can pay a carpenter to make a corner installation.I used 6 pieces of 2x3 and constructed a triangle, with a 24" board on one wall, the other 24" board on the other wall and another piece to meet the two wall boards. I cut boards at 45 degrees so they meet nice and neat!

I used them with the B&D; 6" and it is a perfect snug fit. Since you can set them up with Velcro I guess you could use them with a 5" and have a nice soft edge to work with.

Mine isn't square either, but fits one way. Try rotating 90 degrees, or sanding edges of the board so it's not so tight.

There are 2 seperate boards that u can put on top of each other or next to each other. Each one is 1 inch and 3/4 in thickness

Yes, 18" will be on the rack with 6" overhang which is a fair ratio as long as the product is installed in a stud and/or well supported. On mine currently I have two boards, my 9' Becker & 9'6" Donald Takayama both roughly 22"-23" wide. You should be good to go. - The Hubby.

when you drill or nail the anchors make sure they're even and they're about 33in apart. Also make sure that the short bend is facing upwards towards you (like an upside-down chair). The place the board on it. the anchors will slip in between the border and the actual board
