Does the weld come apart if you pour water on it?

I only just got that on the second read.

Apparently, Yes.    "The bonds are not water-resistant, thus the technology is most promising for interior joinery and furniture."

Probably not too useful since the device to do the vibration has to be able to mount the wood part precisely. Pretty expensive to set up such a thing and it looks like the wood grains have to be running the same.

I usually rub my wood parallel to the grain anyways.



The stain goes on better

I hear that if you rub your wood against the grain, you get splinters...of course, that may just be some Pinocchio joke I heard once...

[Rameses]

What exactly were you looking for the led you to find an internet video of two pieces of wood being rubbed against one another?

[Monsterlover]

How to test a tamagawa ose5kn encoder.

Seriously.

[Rameses]

Sounds fishy at best.
