Kije?

Anyway - yes.

Um yeah. That was my Texas spell checker working there. Kije = Like. ;~)



Freud Dablo blade on the Milwaukee CS worked great. Freud forstner 3/8
bit for counter boring the holes in the edge boards for plugs - needed
2 after the first one started smoking in the hole.

I have done literally thousands of plunge cuts with a HSS 3/8" 4 flute end
mill bit mounted in a router. Idly it did much better than carbide.
Something to think about for future Ipe projects.




I did find a legimate use for a belt sander though. Knocking off those
sharp corners! That was NOT precision work!

Very nice Tom. I am getting ready to make my deck larger myself.


Certainly need sharp tools but it drills kije a dream.
