This was perhaps the quintessential SBC episode for me. Lovely Auckland day, a relatively simple job done exquisitely well but without being overly fussy, and some slices of life here and there. There’s really no channel like this one in the world. Which makes me we witty bitty anxious about the big changes, but hey life is full of changes and I hope these are welcome changes. Thanks so much, Scott.
Great video as always Scott. It turned out great. Consider getting a reusable bag for your Festool vacuum. I’ve had mine for 10+ years and it’s still going strong. It does create a little dust when you empty it but I empty it outside or into a plastic bag. Also you should consider borrowing a Festool domino from one of your buddies to give it a go. You would be surprised at how many projects you can use one on. Even as a carpenter/builder. Ron
Hey Keith Jackson here. Chop chop bro, ive just watched all your episodes from the beginning until now. My evenings are now lost 😄. Loving your videos and greetings from a cold edinburgh ❤
Scott’s moving. The storage is packed up and ready, and he said last job in Aukland. He also made mention of big changes twice in the video. He’s moving away, or they bought a old house that he will be renovating.
For mitres like that I've always just put a thin bit of wood glue in any gaps and then used the round of a screwdriver to compress all the fibres together. Always works put lovely. Saves using any filler. You've done a cracking job on all this cabinet work :)
we usually use a lot of packing tape. just lay both parts flat on the table, tape widely over the joint onto the other surface, turn them around, glue into the joint, close them up, let them dry, and boom, no open gaps anywhere. no need for all that labourintensive compressionstuff. tape over the joint pulls the two parts onto each other, resulting in a perfect corner, if you've cut the 45° degrees properly.
@@robynb.802 oh yeah I tape them up too like that, but sometimes if there is a slight cup then it ain't going to go perfect. Burring over the corners is hardly labour intensive, about 30 seconds work 😅
Lovely table and kitchen units, I have a router bit with a 1.5 mm round over. Works perfect for that kind of stuff. I use it on mdf wardrobe doors. It’s the same round over you might find on standard wardrobe doors. From Ireland 🇮🇪 Love the videos. Have a great time in your new destination ❤️
He’s packing a suitcase full of Makita batteries, power tools, hand tools and obviously the trusty festool vac and going on a little round the world building trip I reckon
Schmick looking coffee table from some nice ply, accentuated the darker colour of the laminate nicely with the timber grain and exposed edges...great job mate!!!! Cheers from Sydney!!!!
What you can do with those sharp veneers on the miters is, you can take the side of a screwdriver and run it along the edge rounding over the edges. It also helps closing any small gaps along the edge
Great channel Scott!! Always looking forward to the new episode! When I saw you changing the vacuum cleaners bag I was thinking about the Festool CT-VA-20. Maybe you should look into it, it pre-separates the sawdust before it goes into the vacuum cleaner, and helps improving the lifetime of the bags greatly ! I own the thing, and it's great. Greetings from a fellow carpenter in the Netherlands!
WOW! That coffee table is beautiful. The jigs you made to clamp the 90 degree pieces are very clever. This post makes me realize I have too few clamps. Thanks again for sharing your craftsmanship.
since you already had the router out, i suppose you could've routed dados for the entire thickness of the supports to get more gluable surface area - great work all the same, impressive as always
1:22 WOW, that’s about as bare, empty, “clean” as ever seen the container. Hmm, makes me wonder what’s up 🤔 Also, WOULD LOVE A GASTON Vid again, they always fun & like seeing what he brings, along w/ you guys interacting w/ each other. ALWAYS A FUN TIME! DOING a GOOD JOB on the “FURNITURE BUILDING” jobs been doing lately. Pretty nice worK! Cheers✌🏻
I’m guessing that the people that own this property must be pretty pleased with having you film the entire construction process for their later viewing and reference.
