Popular Post HandyDan Posted July 14, 2018 Popular Post Report Share Posted July 14, 2018 I recently made a thread cabinet for a sewing friend of mine. The spools were to be placed over dowels to keep the thread spools in order. I needed 168 four inch dowels. Decided I need 20 four foot dowels to come up with the number needed. Couldn't see myself making 168 cuts so I came up with a plan to wrap them all together with some plastic stretch wrap and give that a whirl. Marked off the a dowel every four inches and wrapped the dowels together in between the marks stretching the plastic nice and tight and put them through the table saw. Worked nicely. Got them all cut quickly and smoothly. Harry Brink, lew, Grandpadave52 and 7 others 9 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
