WOODWORKING QUIZ for 25 AUG 04

[Ralph Jones]

Good Evening Friends,
Ever find the time when you wished you had a board stretcher?
Well now you can make one if you know the correct steps.

Can you think of what these steps are?

Respectfully,

[RETIRED]

Use the planks from a Rubber tree.

Couldn't resist.

Sit the stretcher in front of the Australian Olympic telecast. It will be bored in no time at all.<yawn>

I don't know where you can get a board stretcher, (I didn't know they existed till now!) but since I often seem to cut things a few millimetres short, it'd be a fantastic tool to have and would save a lot of waste.

I'm waiting with bated breath for more details,

Cheers,

Cut the board lengthwise at an angle - ie diagonal or that direction. Then move one piece lengthwise against the other, and reglue. You will then have a longer, but either narrower or thinner, board.

Sorry - I thought this thread would be about getting more disk space for the Bulletin Board.

Good Evening Friends,
Rather than go into a long explanation on how to stretch a board I am going to post a picture that will explane the whole thing.
