Hi folks:

Anyone know if there's a place in the GTA that sells
hurricane nuts? Tee nuts likely won't do the job in this particular situation.

thanks in advance.

Okay, I can't find hurricane nuts, so I'm going to use the workaround method recommended to me. That involves using tee nuts, but cutting off the teeth and gluing them onto the MDF.

However, since I need them countersunk, I need to be able to drill a little bit of wood off the baffle. Only problem-I don't have a drillpress. Can anyone recommend a way to be able to drill a little into the MDF at a perfect 90 degree angle without a drillpress?

Thanks in advance.

check a home depot and look near the drawer/cabinet hardware

 

HD def has them, the Home Hardware around the corner from me has them as well

 

Thanks guys. I was so sure HD wouldn't have hurricane nuts.

Do they call them that, or do they go by another name at Home Depot?

Is it any easier to tap in a hurricane nut perpendicular, or do I still need to figure out a way countersink it a little?


Thanks again.
