pam on Nostr: it seems too thick for a laminated plastic (1-2mm) and too bendable for a wood ...
it seems too thick for a laminated plastic (1-2mm) and too bendable for a wood vernier. I might be able to peel it off with my hairdryer melting the glue (i think). If the peeling works, I'll just use a 220 sand grit to smooth it out, a coat of primer and paint. My only worry is that some might easily come out and some won't. There's curves and carves and the top layer is vacuum sucked into it so its rather sturdy. Its also very mid-century so I can't quite tell if its a wood vernier lamination or a plastic, but i want to give it a monotonous and modern vibe.
I have a few more question, hope that's ok!
1. Are spray guns a game changer when it comes to painting ? I might be itching for an excuse to buy it but also keeping a close eye on budget and a good old roller might do the trick. Can spray guns be used to paint home doors and walls as well ?
2. If I were to get a wood cutter, are there anything less scary than a table saw ? I might have watched too many Quentin Tarantino movies - this scares the shit out of me.
3. Based on your experience do you have personal preference between plywood, MDF, blockboards and why ? I prefer ply or layers of blocks over chipboards (MDF), but a lot of furniture makers seem to love MDF
If i were to build this pantry, what wood combinations would you recommend? Also any tips and tricks on cabinet making is very much appreciated!
These are all weekend projects hence will be a slow progress. I appreciate the input very much!
