• Hi all and welcome to TheWoodHaven2 brought into the 21st Century, kicking and screaming! We all have Alasdair to thank for the vast bulk of the heavy lifting to get us here, no more so than me because he's taken away a huge burden of responsibility from my shoulders and brought us to this new shiny home, with all your previous content (hopefully) still intact! Please peruse and feed back. There is still plenty to do, like changing the colour scheme, adding the banner graphic, tweaking the odd setting here and there so I have added a new thread in the 'Technical Issues, Bugs and Feature Requests' forum for you to add any issues you find, any missing settings or just anything you'd like to see added/removed from the feature set that Xenforo offers. We will get to everything over the coming weeks so please be patient, but add anything at all to the thread I mention above and we promise to get to them over the next few days/weeks/months. In the meantime, please enjoy!

More spindle moulding

As an alternative to being bored myself I thought I would bore others with a little insight into slightly different methods of use.51BF6390-FB57-4534-94FA-FDE543BED8E2.jpeg

The limiter cutters shown can be turned to give a 9mm or 12 mm rebate when run in conjunction with a 125 mm rebate block. I have three sets of knives giving moulds of 9, 12, or 20 degree angles. 20 degrees being used on this occasion. The maximum height of the mould is 22mm.74A375FB-CF31-4DEE-84CA-ECB785B583A3.jpeg46D0EC64-9E36-4130-B2AF-DBB35D3F56EC.jpeg86F8AAF8-0018-4C83-9577-8C6F2ED4932D.jpeglkE4A48669-A722-4CBD-B29E-DBA630F7A279.jpeg
 
That looks very much like my Sedgwick, looking forward to all the clever things you hopefully will be showing us as I have only done ordinary boring stuff on mine, but such useful machines.

I can’t claim the credit for this idea, it came from a young lady on the whitehill stand at a show at the NEC more than twenty years ago. There is a good case for buying the whitehill limiter block since they will make any size shaped cutter to give the right cutting circle with their block.
I do have some full width cutters for wider frames ( photo follows)D08854E1-1136-45E8-845A-F09ADF01C440.jpeg
 
Todays offering is the wavy edge which was popular many years ago on occasional tables, wine tables etc. The system uses one of the templates shown on the left together with one of a range of guide bearings which are mounted on the spindle shaft beneath the cutter block using cutters F102. Two examples on the right are intended for a plant stand that still needs more thought!
This job needs to be handled with care. Large tops allow you to keep fingers well away but the small ones need great care. If anyone is interested in it I would be happy to show my system for safe operation. That would not be for a day or two, I’m dodging the snow at the moment.468E8604-BED9-4780-A9B7-DFEF8CC9AD49.jpeg
 
Only with a spindle moulder can you make 22mm thick cabinet doors so easily, these cleverly made cutters cut both the mould, panel groove, and scribes. Off the shelf cutters nos 136 & 137.give a choice of mould shapes.
The groove for the panel is 5mm wide but thicker panels can be used by using raised or rebated edges.
