My table saw is down for a bit so I had to let home depot cut some mdf for me .. man they are awful, so any way I got a few surprisingly not to many small 16th inch gaps nothing over 3/16th of an inch I filled them up with that heavy duty liquid nail and they filled pretty good think I should glass over that ?

Mat

next time i will just get my saw fixed so I have no gaps to fix

Just pour some resin over them for a good seal.

i don't know much about glass do i need to put a little mat down or just mix the resin and hardener and paint it on ?

thanks yall gonna do that in a bit, whats the drying time on on that

depends on weather and how much hardener.....45 minutes to touch.

if u have some mat, i'd go ahead and put some on the inside of the larger gaps

can never have a box too strong

i believe because they dont get tips, nor is it their box they are cutting to exact.

so, if i were working a crappy job at a hardware store, and was told to cut some joe schmoe's wood cuz he is too lazy (or whatever reason i decide to make up becuse im having a bad day) then id do a crappy job too //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/toast.gif.bc0657bf54b9ee653b6438524461341e.gif

remember. they arent robots. and they could prolly care less.

but thats life and thats dealing with humans. freaking jerkheads! //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

yeah my table saw finaly bit the dust... it was only 25 years old, so it looks like i got a new toy i need to go buy, man that was a good saw, the motor still works the bearing are just shot and the blade locks up and wobbles wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy to much but hey what do you expect out of a saw that has been usedfor construction for nearly 20 years
