Cool idea! Don't throw away pieces of wood! 

Oak i guess

Not Oak

Mixed.

Parabens, gostei muito.

I think its Ash.

Yeah I was coming just to see if anyone commented that

Thanks... the oldies knew how to do....

Well, in that case, I'd say to use kosher salt, but sea salt would be preferable. Kosher is quite coarse but sea salt is very, very coarse.

Kool, another salt trick for the toolbox. Thanks for sharing

Knight32d - I agree. The rest of the internet could learn a lesson here, and not to mention, about wood as well.

Awesome job. I agree no annoying background music.

Knight32d - I've been thinking about it. I'm not a professional musician or sound engineer, just a weekend warrior, but I have numerous friends who are professionals, so I've picked up a thing or two, just for fun. When it comes to music, and sound levels on YTube, or otherwise, I'm not being critical of the particular tune, but rather, here I am, listening to voice, but when the music comes, for some reason, almost universally, the sound level is amped up to 11, which makes no sense to me, and in fact, annoys me, in that I now have to be your 'sound engineer', riding 'gain' on your content. I understand. I'm getting it for 'free', so who am I to complain? That's true, but I do complain, at least in my heart. This nasty habit of 'music', needing to be so loud, as if somehow more dramatic, is absolute BS, to my feeble mind (or ear). Lay back please, and let the picture tell the story. Please don't annoy me with your ill-conceived audio, that requires me to suddenly be your 'sound engineer'. There are some, on YTube and elsewhere, who do understand that, but they are few and very far between. So, and it's a long sooo, that is what I particularly enjoy about HandCraft. There is no BS, as you mentioned. As well, as you said or implied, there is no 'fluff' about it, in the sense that I too, feel as if I am on the floor. For example; I don't know his name, nor from whence he hails. Not a clue, but granted, I'm a newbie here. To be honest, at least with myself, when was the last time I experienced that? Basically, never, as most sites, even the best intentioned, are as much about 'them', as anything, which clearly HandCraft is not. He, just assuming, is about the mission at hand, always. It is so rare to find, let alone with content to appreciate, that it is almost as if it's 'wood porn'. Just so natural, as life tends to be, but he doesn't F it up, in terms of it all 'being about him'. Hat's off to Larry (or, Bob's your Uncle), as he just lets the work speak for itself, as for once, somebody gets it. I have a number of advantages. First of all, the thought that I might need a lathe, and a band saw, being inspired so (being about the only tools I lack). As well, a wife, who is very much 'hands on', perhaps even more than I, so there will probably be no argument about it. Also, a brother, who is a true 'Finish Carpenter'. Re-building old Railroad cars or Victorian filigree for the last 50 years, being his bread and butter, so of course, he is my number one 'go to', should I have any questions. I can't imagine I would, but just in case I do, he's there for me. Just kidding, in terms of questions, as of course, I am always loaded for bear.

Wow! Lecture much?

I was going to say "Wish I could do that" but you said it a little better

Nice to see you here, Johnny. ✌️

This is the woodworking equivalent of watching Bob Ross paint. So relaxing.

@@DestroBB - Very well said.

Johnny in the flesh!!! That’s cool for this channel 😊
