Zipbolt handrail connectors make the job of connecting handrails to posts or to another handrail much easier. He help in this process, there is now a new drilling guide available, as can be seen in the photos below.
This guide helps to get all of the holes in the correct position so that you will get a nice clean join.
Recently we added a range of Titebond wood glues to our online shop. We decided to start selling these products, as it seemed a logical step considering that we have been happily using the glue on our own products for the last 10 years.
One of the cornerstones to the Titebond wood glue range is Titebond Original.
Turning a product round is something that any wood turner can do, but turning a product into an oval shape is a much bigger challenge.
This was the task presented to us by one of our customers. They were looking for someone who could not only make a tapered timber plug, but more specifically one that was oval in shape.
A number of years ago we did a trip to the USA to go and see a trade show that promoted products to the building industry.
A number of stair builders exhibited at this show; and one of the products that caught our attention was the use of large square posts on stairs. These posts were characterised by not being turned, and were also much larger than the 90 x 90mm sizes that were being used here in Australia.
We have produced a lot of turned timber balusters over the years, with most of them being made out of Pine, Oak or Meranti.
Occasionally you get a request to make a baluster out of a different timber; which was the case in the photos below of a job that we did for a local hotel upgrade here in Adelaide.
