Our floors and wheel boxes are made of 9mm plywood and our sides and door panels are cut from 6mm plywood.

Once the 10+” of wool layers are stuffed into the cotton cover, the final thickness of the Cuddle Ewe Underquilt is approximately 3”. With use, the Cuddle Ewe Underquilt will compress to a thickness of about 1.5” to 2”. This is very normal and to be expected. Once the wool has compressed, there is nothing that can be done to re-fluff it, but it will still be comfortable. With proper care, you can maintain the Cuddle Ewe’s loftiness for a long time.

Standard methods for checking cladding thickness on installed components utilize eddy current instruments to measure cladding thickness, or ultrasonic instruments to measure overall thickness, then subtracting a known substrate thickness. Once the cladding thickness is known, overall wear life can be extrapolated due to Conforma Clad's predictable wear rates. Substrates can be received in any microstructural condition.

It varies depending on the piece and what it is to be used for. Obviously an armour for purely decorative purposes can be made using thinner sheet steel than if it were to be worn. The more hammer work imparted to a piece the more it will be stretched and thinned in places so one would start with a thicker sectioned plate. I generally use 0.9 and 1.2mm. mild steel for decorative armour ( 20 gauge and 18 gauge ).

That depends on the manufacturer, the species ... seemingly the day of week. We don't make our own veneers and so have no control over thickness. You should assume there will be differences in thickness between species.

We use either 25mm or 35mm polycarbonate on our conservatory roofs. Although 25mm thick polycarbonate sheeting is still the industry standard in the UK, more and more conservatories are moving on to the 35mm polycarbonate.

There are perhaps 10-12 different wood species that are acceptable and commonly used for fence applications. What is best for you will depend on what is readily available in your area and adaptable to the soil and climate conditions on the property works. BACK TO TOP

Good idea in snow country, or if you're in an area where water is scarce. Think about a "rain catchment" system with a metal roof, gutters, and a holding tank.

If you're just starting out, we recommend sticking with the woods that have traditionally been used for your instrument, purchased from a reputable dealer who has experience in supplying woods to instrument makers. Bear in mind that the biggest investment in your instrument will be your time, not the cost of materials.

NO! Many pet stores use cedar or pine shavings as bedding, but it is not recommended. Cedar in particular has been associated with allergies and respiratory problems in various animals, including humans and ferrets. Pine and other wood chips also produce a fair amount of dust which isn't good to breathe. Furthermore, your ferret would much rather have an old towel or T-shirt to cuddle up in. Neutering ? Yes.

We are currently using Rosewood. As more quality hardwoods are available we will make them available to you.

Yes. Shingle Shield Roof & Deck Cleaner effectively cleans away stains of algae, fungus, molds, mildew, dirt, pollution, pine pollen, berries, etc. Since it contains no bleach, it will restore the natural color to the wood. Wood shingles get slippery when wet, however, so wait until they are completely dry before walking on them.

Because of different types of finishes, paints, age of furniture, etc., Fe-Lines, Inc. ALWAYS advises our customers to test a small piece of SP on an inconspicuous place FIRST. Use on open grained woods is not recommended due to possible splintering on removal. Densely grained woods and those with lacquered finishes may work well, but we still recommend a test.

This question is mostly found at wings, and the answer is if you're coming from .016, then yes, .020 is better and .025 for top surfaces is possible as well to arrive at a better appearing construct surface. Be careful to know how much weight will be added in each case that this is done.

DURAFORM® manufactures ties in lengths from 4" to 72" and custom longer sizes. Basically, any wall size can be poured using the proper length tie.

Sure. Vinyl siding is extremely versatile and can be used with just about any exterior building material?brick, cinder block, even natural logs and field stones. If you have special installation concerns?such as running vinyl siding along a natural stone chimney, for example?talk to your contractor. He's probably handled a similar installation in the past. If he hasn't, he always can get detailed installation instructions from an Alside technical specialist. a homeowner, that's important.

Quartersawn wood is the most dimensionally stable, but some woods like birds-eye maple must be flat-sawn for the figure to show. If you have some gorgeous or rare flat-sawn wood that you want to use, it may well be worth the risk; if it's an inexpensive piece of a common wood, you may be risking the longevity of your guitar for no good reason.

Conventional wisdom on the MIMForum is that grain orientation does not matter for bolt-on solid-body necks. For acoustics, it is traditional to use quartersawn wood. Some builders laminate flatsawn wood (face to face) to create what is in effect a quartersawn neck blank:

A You can use pretty much any type of wood as long as it has not been chemically treated with preservatives etc. Standard cordwood split one additional time is good for optimal burning/heating. Lengths the stoves can handle are as follows:
