Re: Vent cover
Hi Dexter Rare earth magnets come in handy for all sorts of jobs, a couple of screws washers depending on the place it's going to. A nice job on the vent cover looks good Regards Richard On Thursday, August 10, 2017 at 2:06:59 PM UTC+1, Dexter Bland wrote: > > I like the idea of the v-grove bit and it is not too late to do that.

Re: Vent cover
I like the idea of the v-grove bit and it is not too late to do that. I'll ask the homeowner about how to hold the cover on. However attached, it needs to be removable. Thanks for the suggestions.

RE: Vent cover
Dexter,Very well done. GREAT job. Thanks for sharing.If you make another, give thought to flipping the board over and running a 60 degree V-groove bit down the centerline of each slot/vent opening. That will allow for a bit better airflow through the slots and reduce backpressure in the ducting. How are you securing it over the opening in the toe kick board? Rather than marring your beautiful work with screws, try either 3M Command Strips (pick one with only a few pounds of pull) or a strip of "hook & loop" (Velcro®) at each end.Just my 2 cent's worth.Mac-Original Message- From: Russ Veinot <ru...@yknotwood.com> Sent: Aug 9, 2017 6:48 PM To: legacy-ornamental-mills@googlegroups.com Subject: RE: Vent cover <zzz!--[if gte="" mso="" 9]=""> <zzz![endif]--><zzz!--[if gte="" mso="" 9]=""> <zzz![endif]-->My hat is off to you.
