I have teak on some boards that I'm waiting to test when the snow starts to fly. Historically it was used for battleship decking in WW2. It also has a high silica content which gives it a fair amount of durability. It's pretty dense stuff, so make sure your tools are sharp. I think it would work wel...

Found some poor mans linear bearing that have the added benefit of being able to cope with elevation changes on the rails. My last one was made of wood and that would be fine i...

Glue seems pretty good until I get to about 3-4mm thickness then it fails. Able to pull off the epoxied sidewall by hand with no effort. I also ...
