Built a house 11 years ago with decorative woodwork on the veranda and balcony. The wood I used was of poor quality and has started to rot on the balcony railing and needs to be redone. Back then, I used a drill and a jigsaw of a good model. However, I find that the results weren't as even and symmetrical as I wanted because it's difficult to achieve precision when using a handheld electric jigsaw. Does anyone have tips on good tools for this job and where to find quality wood? Thord .
Norrland is indeed a large part of Sweden but a bit too far for me to travel to pick up boards. Does anyone know of a good dealer in the Stockholm area?
Bring a moisture meter, check closely packed growth rings, choose each board individually. Dismiss low-price lumberyards immediately. Don't waste time there.
Tools? Perhaps a hand router with a copying function. My son spends 80% of the time making good templates/support strips/patterns before he really starts using the router.
Tack för tipsen. Ska kolla det där med handöverfräs.
Mäktigt att göra det på fri hand med borr och såg! Jag har en CNC-maskin och har funderat på att göra snickarglädje med den, lite fusk kanske men det blir garanterat likadant varje gång i alla fall!
