On the first day of the year, I was immediately surprised all with a mission to make a counter top or kitchen / worktop. vintage storage tins The material: steamed beech. Dimensions 2500 x 1000 x 40 mm. That's going to be a tough guy. Probably on an island. vintage storage tins
Beech is a commonly used wood in the kitchen. There are bread boards, cutting boards, chopping blocks and countertops vintage storage tins .... made. A fine wood that barely splinter, but also a major drawback: it is a particularly "troubled" wood. The effect vintage storage tins is significant. That is also the reason that the fibers vintage storage tins are steamed into the wood as it were "devastated". Steamed wood working less than unsteamed wood, but still remains in the case of beech a difficult vintage storage tins species. The wood is KD, kiln dried to a percentage of between 10 and 12 percent. And even then it is not dry enough. The present houses are so ridiculously dry fired the wood dries over time even more. With all the additional shrinkage problems essentially. Maybe nice to mention that fifty years ago, the wood was not dried artificially and that was not necessary, the interior was also much wetter.
It starts with a pile of rough planks that are first cut. Narrow parts of 5,5 cm There is so much tension in the wood that are cut to pinch the blade and the thing runs hot. Sometimes burned vintage storage tins spots arise.
The bars I then planing vintage storage tins surface and perpendicular. Concentration is important. Failure to observe this may cause the plastic surgeon a lot of work you get. This is the experience of one year or seven years ago.
When that is done, the beams are planed to thickness. The thickest is 5.5 cm thick so that we begin with a look. There are also less in thickness or partially less thick. The thicknesser vintage storage tins therefore does not so much with it. But as it is shaved off more of the diksten come naturally thinner ones turn. Eventually, the bars should have a thickness of about 42 mm.
