Bottom boards
The bottom is made of straight boards
without big open knots. For the
machining you use e.g. the knives
9017/9016 HSS. In these instructions
the bottom will be 30 mm thick, but
everything from 25 to 40 mm works.
You just have to have the same me-
asurement on the cut-out (recess) in
the side boards. The width of the bot-
tom boards should be 120 mm.
Side boards
The side boards can be made 40 mm
(knives 95038/95039 HSS) or 45 mm
(knives 95049/95050 HSS). Most
people prefer the narrower alternative.
If you want to mould the outside this
should, of course, be done at the same
time as the tongue and groove. It does
not matter whether the heartwood
side of the boards faces outwards or
inwards, but be consistent and turn all
the boards the same way. Some ex-
perts claim that the pith should face
outwards, others claim the opposite.
95 mm is a suitable width, which will
give a width of about 80 mm when fit-
ted in the next board’s groove.
Moulding
A nice moulding can add character
to the hot tub!
