Anyone have plans for something like this?

This one appears to be curved, one that is straight would be preferred, but not strictly necessary.

How to ensure flatness of large scale end grain boards?

I’m making large (1M x 2M) end grain wallhangings, at roughly 1” thick. When they get hung up they can tend to cup a bit, likely a change in the air temperature and moisture in the room…they tend to flatten out after a while hanging there but I’d like to eliminate this movement.

I’ve seen other people, on Instagram, router steel frames into the back of their piece. They’re not making end grain panels but they are using full wood rounds in a board. They also use resin, so maybe this helps with securing the wood into place?

When I first started out I tried to cut the wood real thin, almost like a veneer, and then attach it to a ply board, but that did not work because when the board got hotter (I.e. in the sun) all the individual pieces flexed off the ply. Because of this I assumed that nothing could really hold them in place and have just left them to do their thing. I would love to have a more consistently flat finish though.

What do you think?

TIA

This but with wood. Looks easy enough. Will it hold up as an end table?(with a top of course)

45s with various lengths, easy enough, right? Would it be stronger with the 2 supports from the base to be opposite of each other?

Cabinet plans…

Hi! I am trying to find basic plans for something like these cabinets for a camper. Specifically the sliding doors. I’m thinking of building the frames out of 2x4s and then using 1x6s for the face frames. Probably 1/4” plywood for the sliding doors. I just don’t get how they did the door panels and I can’t find anything online. Every time I look for sliding doors it’s barn style doors.

Need help finding plans for this

Hello, I am not new to wood working projects necessarily but haven’t attempted something like this before. Looking for some simple plans to build this (or something similar) for my daughter who turns 1 on Christmas. TIA! I have most the equipment I need I believe and would prefer to build it with glue versus screws but I do not have a biscuit cutter.

I have a flatpack item I've designed but looking for where I can send the plans to have a prototype maybe lazercut in mdf. Where do I look?

As mentioned, I've designed a peice of flatpack furniture, all my tools are at my mil house and I'd like to have maybe 10 of this item made, where would I go to have this flatpack design made and shipped so I can just build it? Or does such a place exist without getting into proper manufacturing of an item?

Making a portable TTRPG game screen - help me decide on the corner joints please

So I'm pretty inexperienced with woodwork and am trying to decide which one to go for, where it's easy enough for me to do, but also won't look super ugly since it needs to look at least somewhat good when it's on the table.

It seems like all the examples I find online (see images below) use miter joints, but I'm worried that those aren't stable enough and will just fall apart at some points.

Finger joints seem to look the best but also the hardest to do (for an amateur like me).

Will I be fine with just a boring butt joint as well?

Plans for something similar to Murphy Closet Double Doors

I saw this on instagram and I can’t stop wanting to do it myself, especially after I saw the crazy pre-order price of $3650, mind you, not including the closet rod……

Here are some links:

I really think every closet should be like this now, especially in small rooms

Simple fix advice needed

I’m looking to sand this table top and then stain it to a colour that matches the chairs. I’ve never done this before and would love anyone’s advice before I start! This is a rental property with the furniture in the tenancy agreement so I’m looking to fix it so that the heavy use doesn’t come off my damage deposit.

My family has two energetic dogs that I'm looking to tire out by having them pull carts around the farm. Are there any plans to build a cart meant for dog pulling?

I don't want a huge cart, but something that is big enough to haul firewood or horse manure.

Best way to find angle and length for a section of pool deck?

This section is the only one that needs an angle on the left. How would you go about not only finding the correct angle but also length?
