I’d like to make a set of wooden abc blocks with decoupaged pictures on them. I plan to buy premade hardwood blocks, but I’m not sure what type of paint/spray to use on the outside to seal them that will not be harmful to children in case they put them in their mouth. Will any non-toxic sealer work? I know that people make them, but I’m not sure what they use!

I just pulled the carpet out of one of my upstairs bedrooms and decided to refinish the floors myself. I started sanding the floors but in some areas the stain is really difficult to get off. I was wondering if all the stain needs to be removed entirely before I attempt the restaining process. My fiancee believes the floors just need to be scuffed up a bit (so the stain will have something to adhere to)… but I want to be sure before I start the work on it as I’d **** to end up ruining them! Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!! Thanks.

My plate will probably be mahogany, turned up on a lathe. I want the finish to be microwave safe and food safe. Is there anything out there that will work?

I’ve read that a good technique is to (1) cut a template out of hardboard or MDF, (2) rough cut the work piece 1/8″ larger than the template, (3) attach the template and use a flush router bit to cut the workpiece flush to the template. I’ve tried this using 3/16″ hardboard for my template, but when I do the router cut I’m having a hard time making the cut flush to the template. The router I’m using is a straight router with a bearing at the top. I’m a novice at using the router, so any advice is appreciated.

I’m thinking about buying a furnace but the blower only puts out 500 cfm. My furnace puts out 1600 cfm will this lower cfm be able to heat the house? I’m going to hook the add on to the existing duct work. I feel the air movement will not be sufficent.
