We have loads of projects from unique woodworking DIY to home maintenance DIY and of course full on remodeling DIY projects.
Welcome to Hammered Halo DIY, I'm Rob, I’m also blessed to be able to work alongside my son (Matthew) who you will see in many of the videos. I am so proud of him, for his interest, and willingness to learn these invaluable life skills that will carry him forward. Sadly, a missing part of the youth today. We're hopeful as a father and son team, that maybe we can turn that trend around, however small by encouraging other young adults to learn some of the basics of DIY
Thank you all for your incredible support, we could not do this without you.

Great quality build for a fun game. Ironically my wife and I use to professionally make the ACA regulation bags. The drink holders are a nice touch and love the quality with pocket hole joinery and round over bit with the router!
@@inspiringbuildsThat’s cool! That you used to make the regulation bags. Pocket hole joinery worked pretty good for this build however I’m not a big fan of it, tbh. Thanks for watching brother
Yes I guess it’s a little bit expensive but I had the same concerns about the brittle clips as well. The shop did a great job, not one clip was broken.
If u have any rust inside of tank put some tranny fluid in and coat the inners of the tank fill with air after a few air dumps with drain valve all is golden inside ! But smart on not taking chances but tanks can rupture at any time that's why it's better to have in an area that's alot less damaging but good job sir thanks for taking the time for the editing of the video
its not tank capacity that you need. It's a more powerful pump. The way these work is as soon as the motor kicks on due to drop in tank pressure, you're essentially running off the motor at that point. So a huge tank with a low SCFM pump is not going to improve things much. A small tank with high SCFM pump will run circles around the former.
Thanks, that makes sense. This is just a single bay hobby wood shop so to be honest there aren’t too many air tools I use on the regular, the odd air grinder, dremel or sander is pretty much it. Thanks for the info
What you talk about is duty cycle. Some folks, however, may just do with extra reserve, which is what is described here. I would have had a bigger reservoir, though. This is still a great choice on up cycling.
Well, sparky, just looking at the welds from the outside (painted, too) won't expose any flaws. I'd suggest looking inside the tank. I love that you took yourself outside while this filled for the first time. If you truly were cautious, you'd take all of it outside, so if that tank did fail, it wouldn't damage your shop.
I agree with you, from what I’ve heard, most tank failures are due to corrosion from inside the tank. I didn’t look inside it however no water or rusty water came out when i pulled the old drain plug. Also your right, I should have been more cautious and taken the whole tank outside, my bad Cheers
Ok, you got an increase in time between cycles. But what you didn’t show was the difference in run time. How much longer is that little motor on the smaller compressor going to be running, now that it has to fill up three times the volume that it was made for? How much sooner will that little motor be burning out? It may have been a more valuable use of the time you spent to replace the part on the larger compressor that controls when it shuts off, and then use the smaller tank to increase the system’s capacity. The larger motor/pump assembly would probably have less trouble keeping up with demand, and a shorter run time to fill up the tanks.
Thanks for the info, I did consider fixing the larger tank and using it as the main tank but I had just recently bought the 8 gallon job site tank and it is still used as a tank I take to other renovation projects. Ideally I should probably get a larger stand up tank for my small shop. I do realize there is a chance of burning out the smaller compressor but I don’t use a ton of air in my small wood shop so I do t mind risking it until I can find a larger more permanent one. Thanks again for the tips
I like it. It seems to darken with the varathane, with just the stain you could see more contrast in grain...maybe it was the natural lighting. What did you use to layout the dovetail cuts? THanks
Thanks, yes it did darken with the varathane and continues to darken even months after. The dove tails, I just used a square to what I thought looked good for the size of project.
You should try to remove the mirror if possible howerever you might be able to use a bonding primer over the mirror first. You would have to check with the manufacturer of the primer first. I have a video on my channel called “how to tile over tile “ You could watch that video to see which primer I used. Thanks for watching
I thought that was a great idea and it was extremely well done. Some people should understand that not everyone can afford the cost of wood - great alternative and the finished product looks great (which is all that really matters).
Thanks man, I really questioned whether I should even post a video like this, it’s so far out of my wheelhouse. I thought with cost saving people would be interested however the low view count tells the real story. I’m finishing the living room ceiling in that same house this week and it is almost twice as wide and 3’ higher. OMG!!!
@@DIYBuilt I think it’s a good video! Sometimes my videos will take weeks before they get any traction. Maybe put something like “Only $300” in the thumbnail with an arrow pointing towards the beams. This is an amazing budget option in my opinion. I can believe how real it looks
@@FixItFrench I’ll try that on the thumbnail, thanks. it does look amazing, one of my buddies is a prop and set builder for the movies, now I know what he must go through daily lol, I’ll stick to wood thank you
Sorry you were disappointed with the video content. I also favour real wood over substitutes like this however I also respect the wishes of my customers and if I can provide a quality product and service with what they want and within their budget I will always try my best to do so. Thanks for watching.
