In Australia we always keep some in the 4x4 on long trips in case you break down or get lost. You can take the car battery out, or use jumper leads. Hook any 12 volt up to steel wool and it will ignite. So if you get more flat tyres than you’re carrying spares and need a night to repair them. Lost your lighter? Steel wool and a car battery. Always keep it with your cakes of soap in case of fuel tank leaks.
I just have to say thank you. I have zero woodworking and finishing experience. I purchased an 8-ft Butcher's Block slab to make a computer desk out of. I had no idea that they had to be sealed and they came dry. I scrambled and started researching. I watched lots of videos but your video was by far the best. Simple straight to the point. I went out today and I bought water based polyurethane, sponge applicators and a proper sanding block. I followed your instructions to a T. I'm just about to put my third coat on and as of right now it looks phenomenal. You took a lot of the stress out for me and allowed me to accomplish what I wanted. Thank you so very much for the extremely helpful video ❤
Thanks for your kind words. I'm delighted my video was helpful. Send me a photo when you're done. I'd like to see how things turn out. My email is steve@stevemaxwell.ca. Drop by my website baileylineroad.com for a visit sometime. You'll find lots of stuff there, including tool giveaways, articles and videos of interest to hands-on, how-to people. Bye for now and thanks for watching! Steve
Your claim of "some say" the tools PREDATE the last ice age is Ridiculous! This is a good video about Stone Age people but That is an unreal claim. Please Stay Real.
I think you need extreme climates to justify a vapor barrier, either south florida heat or canada cold extremes, everybody in the middle doesnt really need one. The vapor barrier will also be different based on cold climate or hot climate.
Although its a suitable overview of how this type of joiner works, your example process only works with the specific thickness of wood you chose (unless you are happy with offset biscuits)....
my grand parents also had a huge room attached to root cellar that in the winter they cut out huge blocks of ice and put into the deepest section and covered with wood, chips, saw dust and hay..the cured hams, meats etc were stored there and in juky,naug when so hot, these smaller ice blocks had chipped off pieces to make hand made , fresh berries, fruit based pure cream , fresh chilled milk ice cream... my god , you can not find anything as good... sugar was used, but this was a luxury item for the kinder.
Incredible. One suggestion when dwaling with carbon fiber. I would impregnate the fiber first and layer it before attaching to anything. You sandwich it between mylar sheets or something then you can cut it into the size and shape you need if youre working on smaller items. More importantly, it makes it easier to get all the air out. Just be sure to stick use it before it dries. You can also use this method to make composite patches for holes.
