Make a garden screen using simple tools. This shows how I made a modern looking screen in plywood. The design is a simplae leaf shape but repearted to create big impact.
When I saw the thumbnail of the finished screen, I thought for sure you did this on a CNC machine. I really appreciate the inspiration and the straightforward way you shared how you put these together.
Also thought the same at first glance. So impressed with both the end result AND your patience to cut out all those holes! Rock star, those are gorgeous. 👊💖 EDIT: new sub and I see your channel is new is well. I look forward to more of your videos and expect your talent will quickly grow your channel. All the best to you.
@@spearageddon3279 thank you so much. Yes, I've only started the channel recently and I've got many ideas for more content in the upcoming months. Thank you for watching and subscribing 👍
That has to be one of the most beautiful original idea in woodworking that I have seen in a very long time! Absolutely loved it! Kudos to you, but most of all thank you for sharing your talent with us.
What a beautiful project, glad you didn't let the amount of work interfere with getting this completed...I can appreciate just how much work and patience that took you. Great job.
What a great result. I’m a time served carpenter now retired and I have to say I’m very impressed with your patience and evident skill. I hope you can keep the ply well sealed, even ‘exterior grade needs a lot of protection. Well done!
Many thanks for your kind words. I'm not expecting the ply to last a very long time but the garden paint seems to be doing a good job as keeping the water out, at the moment. However, time will tell how long it lasts. Thanks for watching. 👍
@@crouchvalewoodcraft if you want your paint to keep the ply dry 100% then use a two part epoxy paint. I’ve used ply on my dormer roof but I used fibreglass to coat the ply. And then the gelcoat paint which has stood up to the weather very well as here in West of Scotland (Glasgow) is so wet it’s like living at sea!
Absolutely Beautiful!! I love the idea and I can't imagine how much time this took. Thank you so much for sharing!! You are so very talented!! Can't wait to see what else you come up with!!
The screens are absolutely gorgeous. I love your leaf design you must be a dab hand with the jigsaw now!! Well done on the project and a well done on a great video
wow this whole template and stuff was NUTS!! i thought you were just gonna be like "yeah, plop this on your laser cutter..." but then you are doing it by HAND. impressive! and, ACCESSIBLE. most of us can do this and have the tools. most of what you need is a jigsaw and space. and having seen the final product in the thumbnail, i just..... wow. you may have a new sub just from this.
You sir are a true inspiration and craftsman! Absolutely gorgeous. Thank you so very much for sharing this process with all of us around the world! New subscriber and I can not wait to see what else you create and share ❤😊
At first I thought these were prefab metal screens attached to a wood gazebo. Love what you created - amazing artistry and so versatile for so many different applications. Sadly where I live in Florida this wouldn't last past one year before rotting or disintegrating or get destroyed by a hurricane. Unless it is heavy wrought iron or industrial strength alu or heavy duty plastic nothing lasts in our climate. I was just fascinated by your creativity and skills - great project!
Thanks for watching and your comment. I'm fortunate that we don't get heavy weather here and the garden is pretty sheltered. But I'm aware that plywood has it's limitations in terms of durability. Time will tell how long it lasts. 👍
Loved the lit-up shot at the end. Personally I would use marine ply....a substantial outlay but longer lasting than ordinary WPB, especially after all the work.
Thanks, glad you like it. It does look nice lit up. Yes, marine ply would certainly be more water resistant. I'll see how long it holds up for and consider options of it degrades to quickly. 👍
Fabulous inspiration - thank you. It looks amazing. A relatively low cost home laser cutter would have saved you a lot of time and paid for itself with just this project. On large pieces of board like this you just put them at one end, cut, then move them along until the job is done. My 10W laser would need a few passes to cut 9mm ply but there are 20W lasers available now for the same price I paid for my 10W, and the new Longer 30W laser looks like it would cut a 9 mm board in one pass.
Thanks, I'm glad you like it. I did have a laser cutter but didn't really like using it. I spent more time on the computer rather than wood working, and that's not really my thing. But for mass producing these,a laser cutter or CNC would be the way to go. Thanks for watching 👍
@@crouchvalewoodcraft I totally get you. I have poor woodworking skills and gear so I tend to lean more on technology. I can well imagine if you have the skill then the level of satisfaction of actually "doing it yourself" is great.
After you made the template, I thought that you would use a router. A lot of hard work but there is a lot of beauty in simplicity. Love how it turned out, well done.
Very creative. Not that your fence is not attractive on its own, but the gazebo panels add a unique sense of privacy to the space. All your time and effort resulted in a very nice professional looking project. Well done 👍
Beautiful! I enjoyed watching the process. Very creative! And of course I also enjoyed watching your furry quality control inspector. Thank you for sharing.
Cheers, I'm glad you like it. Yes, it is very straightforward to do, if not a bit laborious. But, there's lots of potential to use this in other situations. Thanks for watching 👍
Glad you like it. Keep up with the woodwork, it's a great pastime to be able to make things for the house and garden. I'm delighted you've been inspired by this. Thanks for watching 👍
Thanks, glad you like it. I made it over about three weeks, doing a couple of hours every so often. I don't know exactly how many hours in total. Thanks for watching🙏
I was so inspired by your creativity!!! Thank you so much for taking the time to film this - I have subscribed and will be back often to view your work. Thank you, thank you! Kate
very clever idea. what a lot of cutting with the jigsaw your arms must have hurt after all of that cutting. what a stunning look to a patio. i love it.
Once you made the first plywood template, you should have used that with a router! Gorgeous project though and I am very impressed you did it by hand! i Assumed a CNC based on the thumbnail.
Yes, that could have been done that way. However, the way I did them meant each panel is different and unique. Well that's my excuse and I'm sticking to it 🤣👍 thanks for watching 👍
Just was talking with hubby about this the other day and the very next day your video came up, very nice job you have done love it. And thanks for putting it on .
Thank you. Yes, I did look to buy some similar panels that we made from metal. But the cost to cover the sizes I need was prohibitive. The plywood is much cheaper, even though it won't last as long. Thanks for watching👍
Crouch Vale Woodcraft -- Lovely design. What I love is, like me, you're ambidextrous. Makes the job so much easier. I'm in Canada and hope to have my own home soon. Hope I can make this hold up against our very cold winters in the mountains.
Wow these are so delicate they would also have lots of uses for the interiors of houses and public buildings as well. You are very talented artistically, I bet you have many more talents. Please share more, we are all waiting with baited breaths. Many thanks.
Thank you so much 🤗 yes, this technique could be used for all sorts of projects. I have lots of ideas for further project videos. I'm currently filming the next one which I hope to have finished next week. Many thanks for watching. 👍
That's a lot of hard work.. You should saturate it with a water sealant prior to paint it, something like Thompson's Water Seal then spray with one of those spray painting equipment like Wagner Spray Painters and coat it with an epoxy all-weather paint and a final coat of an epoxy clear coat.. That's going to be outside and you definitely want to make it waterproof..
