I wonder how it was sealed. Is glazed ceramic + wax that airtight? The article (nor many very similar ones from other sites) doesn’t give specifics.

Ah, thanks for the proper name for it. Yeah, handy shape!
Thanks!
Looks great! I’m thinking about trying a mortise and tenon project. Any progress photos?
Just being forced to talk about how it’s going and what’s blocking can be helpful, so I’m glad you’re questioning for to be more useful, not doing a little rubber-ducking isn’t all bad.
I was hoping for hardwood! Seems like it’s probably not, though.
Yeah, I can pretty easily scratch it with my fingernail, which seems the same as a 2x4 scrap and much softer than some oak and maple scraps I have around.
Also looking more closely at the bigger scratches and screw holes I see lighter wood visible, I was a bit fooled by the stain on the bottom.
It was super heavy. But I have a hard time judging whether it’s heavier than a similar bulk of 2x4s.
It lifts out so you can easily empty the crumbs.
Thanks! I didn’t get a great picture of that before leaving it with my mom, but it’s in the background here. Just made slots (dados?) for 1/8" plywood for the back.
Yes, they’re for “bench dogs”, which let you clamp boards against the top of your workbench. I only recently learned about them myself!
When I was drilling the test hole I wasn’t thinking about how it would look to open up the two clamped boards afterwards, so it was just a fun surprise to see the shape of the inside of the hole revealed like that.
“I think we are headed for major societal disruption within the next five years,” Gretta Pecl of the University of Tasmania told The Guardian. “[Authorities] will be overwhelmed by extreme event after extreme event, food production will be disrupted. I could not feel greater despair over the future.”
But, reason to keep fighting:
Others found hope in the climate activism and awareness of younger generations, and in the finding that each extra tenth of a degree of warming avoided protects 140 million people from extreme temperatures.
The headline doesn’t say anything about what I might expect to find in the article, it just claims it’s gonna be great.
Extras are to give away.
Generally, making little guide holes/dents — make it easier to start a drill bit where I want, transfer a point through a template, make an indent for my lathe tailstock live center.
I’m very happy with it, especially the space saving aspect.
That joke is on point. (-;
I had no idea the shape of the bridge made such a difference, that’s neat!
Martha Wells. Finished the Murderbot series, wrapping up the Raksura. All very much of the same cloth, but I enjoy it.
Also recently discovered Naomi Novik’s Scholomance trilogy, I had only read her Temeraire books before.
Yeah, if you don’t want the next dev (or your future self) to accidentally undo that corner case you fixed, better put a unit test on it.
