I would like to know which way the grain runs on your plywood. Is it with the longest dimension and consistent throughout your products? Thanks.

The grain usually runs with the long dimension, the variables are with the thickness of the piece and the laminate layers. We have received material with a total thickness of 0.125 (3.1) through 0.090 (2.2). We have also received material with three even thickness layers and some with a thick junk core with paper thin outer veneers. If the vendor name starts with an "R" choose another vendor.

For the piece that I got, the outside grain on both sides runs the long way. The ply is 3-ply.

Yes the grain runs the length. Appears to be a solid piece with one darker knot towards the middle. I didn't mind the knot but someone else might

The grain of the Bamboo runs the lengths of the board. It is a good board we use it in our camper all the time.

It would be tight. You can reduce the recipe to 3/4 and it would work. I have a 1 1/2 and when I do the 7-grain version I have to reduce it to 3/4 because it rises so much. I don't have that problem with the 9 grain.

Mine is solid wood and I can't see signs of any overlay on plywood. Pretty solid unit and I have been happy with it! The only problem I had was they sent me the wrong finish on faucet so I contacted them and they sent out the correct one very quickly!

I really would recommend if the wood grain if your going for a classic look. The wood is good quality, only complain is I took it off with a quad release and put it upside down and the nrg logo fell off with the heat since it's glued on.

I thinks It's a bit aggressive for unsupported narrow end grain. We generally use our Bosch orbital palm sander or half sheet sander for narrow end grain. I'm sure if you clamp & block side supports on both sides of the end piece it would work really fine. At least that's how I would do it. I know it would do a great job if supported properly to assure end piece squareness..

Not sure. You might try it on a small corner. I know for us on regular plywood it came out beautiful.

I'm a hobbyist and have had the DW734 for about a year now. Most of my planning had been hardwoods, Maple, Cherry, Walnut and some Purple Heart. None of them have had complicated figure. The widest board I've run through the machine was about a 9" glue up. I've gotten very good results and virtually no tear out. For my purposes an extra 1/2" in width and 2 speeds wouldn't make any difference in my projects. For me, this was a great buy. Depending on your needs, your results may var :)

The wood grain shows prominently! You can feel the texture if the wood grain, it doesn't look like a pressed particle board.

Yes I believe it does. It was awhile ago but I remember cutting for stair risers (kind of a funky application for the product) and I cut to length first and then cut my riser height. Grain goes horizontally on my risers so the grain must have run length wise.

Unfortunately, we ordered black. I've seen it in silver, but never a wood grain. Sorry I couldn't help.

The item for sale is just the black brackets. You supply the lumber (2x4 boards) and cut to whatever size you want. I made mine 31" tall and 36" deep, to accommodate my height comfort and to hold a 4x8 sheet of plywood. I am pleased with how sturdy my new sawhorses are. I used the screws that came with the brackets, and found them to be strong screws.

The Board in the picture and the board I have is an edge grain board. Edge grain is made of strips of wood like the plank wood in a 2x4. It is the cut from the length or height of the tree. End grain board are med by cutting pieces of lumber into blocks and gluing together with the end grain up (end grain would be the cut of wood that would show the growth rings of the tree. End grain boards tend to show scratches less and are a bit kinder on the knife's edge. Edge Grain boards are a little more resistant to staining and absorbing moisture. So it's a matter of preference as to which type of constructed board you want, but I am extremely happy with my edge grain board. Buy a good oil to preserve your board.

The wood grain runs lengthwise. Also note that the long edges each have one solid, uninterrupted piece (I.e. the piece of wood that runs along each long edge is not pieced together). You can darken the wood with stain, but the wood would then likely not be food-safe. Mineral oil also slightly darkens the wood and maintains food safety.

funny you should ask, I was actually looking at it closely last night. It's smooth in that it's coated, but it's not smooth like other products of this nature are (for instance Ikea products which have that slippery smooth quality). it has a slight grain, but the grain isn't really a wood texture, it's more very, very slightly textured. Overall I would say no grain is visible, but it's not perfectly smooth to the touch.

I haven't used the lumbermaker that much but I noticed that I had to tighten the bracket that attaches to the bar very evenly between the two screws. Too much force from one screw would loosen the other and then when I tighten the loose screw the other one would loosen because the bracket was spreading. If this is what you are reffering to I can see where the bracket would eventually become "sprung way out". Other than trying to control how much I tighten the screws I dont know what to do about it. Have you talked to Haddon? Good luck. Tom L.

HI. I made a ball of aluminium of 2.64 grain for you and dropped it on the scale over 10 times, also 10 times in between was another weight of 45.08 grainboth number were constant on every time. in resume, I can't tell you my 2.64 grain ball was exact, but it sure was constant.good luckPS, you should start a question with Hi at least... just saying :-)
