Have you ever made any rail and stile cabinet doors with glass as the
panel, and fake muntins, creating a divided light look? How might you
attach the pane to the doors for easy replacement when and if they
break? Thanks. Tom
Oh, c'mon, either its a troll or he is genuine in sharing; if the
latter, give the guy a break.

You have one year in woodworking and you are here to offer your knowledge to

I think you need to sit back read the group and relax, some of the old

Patience, Dave.
Mark Twain once allegedly said: "When I was a boy of fourteen, my father was
so ignorant I could hardly stand to have the old man around. But when I got
to be twenty-one, I was astonished at how much he had learned in seven years."

Thanks! I missed them the first time down the isle! I expected to see them

Now that I have my own set of balls, any wood dorking questions I can

Why not?
It's entirely possible that someone who's been 'dorking for a year
would have learned something I don't know.
OTOH, if the OP wants to be a regular on the wreck this is a perfect
trial by fire.

Sounds like an entirely different animal- Levay Smith is one of those
smoky-voiced female jazz singers and the Skillet Lickers are a
jump-blues band, in the one I had in mind. They came a bit later, so
I wonder if they snagged the name from the guys you mentioned. :)

'hammerfour" as in "What's a hammerfour?" Reply is "Pounding nails!"

See? On the Internet, you can find someone who shares your interests,
no matter how ...unusual... they are. This usually applies to a
different topic, but it's fitting here as well.

No, I'd make real muntins for separate lights...but, I'd use a small

For the situation you describe, yes. One would presume that the number
of times one will need to replace a pane would be limited so that
removing brads will be a relatively rare occerrence.

Good luck, I think it well may be easier and it'll definitely look
better.
BTW, make a piece wide enough for four muntins (including waste) and cut
to length. Make end cope cuts first, then mould the outside edges. Now
rip the two outer ones off and mould the final edge. Repeat as many
times as needed...

I'll try to help but first I need to know what a henweigh is. I tried

some kind of hand tool. Would it be a plane by any chance. Could you

So a henwegh is a type of hammer or a set. when you say pounding nails it
could be a few tools. But normally I don't how to align hammers. They
don't cost too much I just go buy another one. Make sure it's balanced
though. To find a balanced hammer you stand it on the head and if it
balances your good to go. If it falls over then I wouldn't recommend it.
Working with an unbalanced hammer all day reeks havock on your elbow.

Well, yes. I've discovered that my ignorance is growing rapidly and without

I live in Contra Costa County, and worked in Petaluma & Santa Rosa, when
the Telecomm Valley boom was happening. I had grandparents at Point Arena
in Mendocino County, and at Forestville, west of Sebastapol. The Mendocino
branch of the family goes back to the 1840s in the cemetary at Manchester.
My dad lives in Lake County, about 45 minutes from John Moorhead, who has
extended a standing invitation to come and visit. Life has gotten in the
way of that, mostly in the form of a beautiful new granddaughter.
Why do you ask?

Patriarch,
who has been known to come up with old John Prine lyrics, and most of the
Lyle Lovett catalog. MUCH more Neander-appropriate. ;-)

If you've been lurking you know that there is a great deal of knowledge

I gotta remember that one. I have a couple of friends with teenage daughters.

Perhaps you can help me. Bronzzy. I've been trying to get my 1950 cast
iron Henweigh aligned. I really like it, but it's not cutting
right. I've adjusted it as best I could, but it's still off.
Any advice?

But it's a *cast* *iron* Henweigh. Gotta be 8-10 lbs., easy.

Others have answered, and I hope you forgive me for pulling your leg.
It was meant as an initiation, as the older ones welcome the younger
ones. At this point I'd shake your hand, pat you on the back, and buy
you a beer. Welcome to the wreck. I hope you have a sense of humor,
and use it frequently.
Just be careful if someone asks you for a left handed monkey wrench.

Don't see the problem. They're all aluminum these days. (That's
aluminium to you, Andy)
Most potfurs are still cast iron though.

If you really want to grant yourself some kind of authority on the basis of
balls, you need to get a pair of bull balls!!

Dave, do you remember the link to that survey?
I'll admit to its lack of empirical credentials but it was sorta

I understand that he drowned last year. So did my fave coffee beans,

My bestest teacher ever was Miss Hankins, Trinity Cathedral School,
Grade Two, Little Rock, AR, ca. 1960. It was my only year of religious
school and I don't recall if she was a Sister or not. I just loved
her. (Oh, right. She couldn't have been a nun, huh? ;)

Sr. Mary Benzedrine, Saint Agnes School, Grade Five. c. 1960.
Seriously though, I remember when I first discovered that I had a 'new
member' and sought to show it off in roughly the same way.
BTW - A survey was done of this NG awhile back and found that the
average age was in the fifties and the average number of years
experience in wooddorking was about twenty something, if I recall
correctly.
Good luck with your new member! <g>
