Welcome to Wood Talk for Woodworkers by Woodworkers.

Now here are three guys who are actually under the illusion at

Woodworking is cool. Mark, Matt, and Shannon.

All right, it's episode number 185 for June 2nd, 2014.

On today's show, we're talking about matching stain, rough versus smooth glue surfaces, tips for

beating the summer heat, framing mirrors, and unique joints for a bed frame.

All that and more coming up, but first let's hear a quick word from our sponsor.

When you spend weeks crafting the perfect box or cabinet, why would you use anything but the highest

quality hardware? Russo has been making high precision hardware here in the United States for over 20 years.

The entire line is available in brass and stainless steel at bruso.com.

While you're there, be sure to check out the new line of knife hinge installation templates.

As a special offer to Wood Talk listeners, use the code Wood Talk at checkout for 10% off.

Very cool, and welcome back, Bruce, so Apparently we did something right the first time around.

Yeah I know I was pretty shocked about that I thought for sure they were like

we talk why that was such a waste of fifty dollars. Geez, what are we doing?

Well, you know what, here's the cool thing.

Wood talk, 10% off, we mentioned that before, and I also mentioned in the past that hardware is one of those things.

It's not like you just go and buy it in advance.

So it's nice to have that code again because maybe you weren't in the market for hardware

before but you are now and that code is active again.

So 10% off of that hardware is a very, very good thing.

And we all got a little sample pack from Bruzzo, which was really, really nice.
