MDF speaker stands done in two hours (matagal lang matuyo kasi yung glue ;))

but this will get some finish when I get back, for now, quick and dirty sya 😉
needed to raise the speaker higher than previously anticipated since the chairs I use are higher than couches that the stands are designed for...:D

Re: Show your Quickie Quickie Projects

Nice. Must be some pretty lofty throne you sit on.

Do you need to edge-band MDF?

Re: Show your Quickie Quickie Projects

It looks good timber, did you fill it with sand or was it sturdy enough?

So the old speaker stands are mine na? Harhar! :D:D:D

Re: Show your Quickie Quickie Projects

I was having fun with my new m/t jig. I just finished today a real quickie project, a laser printer table. The table consisted 34 mortises and 34 tenons, all cuts done in less than 2 hours. I used palochina here coz I have plenty of this wood from the printing plant that i work for (we import cheque papers).

pic 2: assembling

pic 3: finished with clear gloss lacquer only

Re: Show your Quickie Quickie Projects

Nice one Armand! Hope we also have a place here in Manila where we could buy good pines like the ones you have 🙁

Re: Show your Quickie Quickie Projects

Hey Armand bro, that M/T jig you made was really something ha, it made your wood project seems so easy, fast and no sweat, really impressive, I really am impressed. 😎 😉 :p

Re: Show your Quickie Quickie Projects

tsamba lang bro...tsamba lang 😉

Thanks Rosy.

Got any nice long pieces? ... that you are willing to sell? 🙂

I'm always on the lookout for long pieces, 8 to 16+ ft, but rarely find them at Timberport on Ortigas Ave. Ext. during the infrequent times I get to drop by there. (Recycled, light, and long ... what I need for a torsion box panel idea.)

Re: Show your Quickie Quickie Projects

@guad: sorry guad pallet size is only 32" square with 1/2" x 5" planks. Timberport is already a good source of palochina, kung wala sa kanila slim na talaga ang chance para makita ang size na hinahanap mo. Why not try Policarpio at taytay.

Re: Show your Quickie Quickie Projects

that's a super quickie project using m/t joints...

i'll be doing that for days, walang tulugan...:eek:

marami ka nang magagawang projects using traditional m/t joints,

the strongest joints i've known...

superb armand, superb quickie one...;)

Re: Show your Quickie Quickie Projects

@armand,

parang kaka adik nga gumawa ng m/t joinery with that jig..hehe

btw, in your photos posted, i saw a twin cooling fan of some sort in the background.

?

Re: Show your Quickie Quickie Projects

@jonathan: gawa ka na din ng jig :p...problem ko na lang pambili ng molave para sa dining chairs.

@violaine: that's my constant companion in my shop and my only source of cold air whenever i'm working :p (both fans are 110 volts so I series them to run in 220v)

Re: Show your Quickie Quickie Projects

vernier caliper docking station:p
