President Beep posted:we had a lovely gate for our driveway that I’ve needed to replace for years. the recent ice storm took it out and forced my hand. I bought a nice hardware kit for a new one, but I’m trying to decide on what kind of wood to use. the kit/plans call for dimensional lumber, so my options are kind of restricted (i intend to follow the directions because i want it to look nice and while i could put something decent together it wouldn’t look the best). mahogany

Real advice: use construction lumber and paint it. Or use cedar. It's lightweight and good at being outside. I'm sorry you've been waiting months to fix your gate because you were awaiting my wonderful advice

President Beep posted:i think i am indeed going to use cedar. now the true decision: do i stain it or let it weather? put deck stain on it for longevity. if you want you can let it weather and then stain it later and it will look shittier

My buddy gave me some old hand planes he had sitting around and I fixed em in up to useable status. None of them are particularly good or valuable but you can't beat free. A longer Stanley "handyman" that's useable as a joining plane, a Shelton no 4 that doesn't have a chip breaker, and a Stanley block plane that's not bad at all. I sorta flattened the soles, mostly rust removal, and sharpened them up and they all cut well enough for me. I could mate the chip breakers better but ehhh

I like to drink beer and dick around on the wood, so I don't use power tools either really. Except the drill. gently caress a bit brace

Also I live in an apartment so the smallness of hand tools is a huge appeal

Elder Postsman posted:nice work. i did a similar thing but WAY more half assed - bolted a couple pieces of 2x4 to the seat base and put a pillow on top lol When I was younger I just took the arms and back off a poo poo chair and used the base as a stool. I wanted to do better this time Rotor I bought a card scraper you better not have misled me  I got this one for one big reason: it's got a fish on it
