Informations about plastic covers and wood handles ?

Post by Yves_22 » Sun Dec 11, 2016 4:30 pm

Hi,
i've just purchased the drawings of the portable workshop, but i didn't found informations about :
1 - plastic covers (for circular saw, jig saw and router), i mean where to find material (in France) and dimensions
2 - wood knobs used to thighten the different parts of the workshop (dimensions, how to make them ...). On sketchup drawings, they seems threaded : how to do the threading, whit a threading tap ?
Please, could someone help me ?
Thanks a lot

Edit : Please, don't take care of this message, i found everything.

hi,
1- Is called opaline methacrylate. There are shops specialized in this type of materials, sure you find it near where you live, look for sites where they sell plastics and methacrylates...You will find the dimmensions in the folder "portable workshop/PDF/Printable templates" page 6.

2- In several of my videos you can see how I have made them. Here you will find the threaded inserts.
