Great idea to avoid tear out. When we spend time making DIY builds we want them to be quality and this will reduce some of the sanding time. Keep up the great work as the goal is for us to continue to inspire others to build something awesome. 👍🏼
You made me laugh when you said "I cried to my mom, and she kissed it better". Great build, Wes. It almost looks too good to be used. Greetings, Christophe
Putting "thin" CA glue on the ends (after your initial miter cut) will harden the wood enough so it doesnt split. Also, dont forget to keep the original close by for angled cuts.
@@WesHamstra Second! No wait, Third! Wes have you thought about setting up some merch at TeeSpring? Even if you don't sell any, (I pretty much don't) it's a way to buy some for yourself so you can wear your own logo in your videos instead of advertising for Mountain Hardwear... buy an extra one and give it to Doug to wear on his channel... 😇
@@WesHamstra gonna disagree. i have a makita that looks identical and i was able to move them over enough to be actually minutely touching the blade. maybe yours are special, i don't know for sure. BTW that turned out awesome.
