I have been asked to paint a swing set. An exterior satin finished latex has already been purchased, for the basecoat. I am planning to use my acrylics for the decorative painting. But I am not sure how to finish it. Can I just use a water sealing product (ex: Thompson’s Waterseal), or should I use a clear coat? If a clearcoat is the way to go, are there any suggestions on which one to use and how long after I paint should I wait to apply it? I really want this to be durable and lasting. It is for a very special little girl, my grand-daughter. Thank you to everyone who chooses to help me. Peace!

I am new at woodworking. I need advice on type of blade for a table saw?

asked:


I have dozens of construction grade 1×6’s at the house that I will use in a few beginner furniture-making projects. I bought a table saw, and I am going to trim them down to 1×5 or so before running them through a planer. Should I use the rip blade that came with the table saw, or should I buy a blade with 40 teeth, 60 teeth, or 100 teeth?
