It's always fun to learn something new, and the dowel to make the pits is a great idea. So much easier than attaching a wood burner to the drill press.
Its been a good domino week. I saw the aluminium domino video by Brian Oltrogge and now your wooden version. I like the scorging method! Its nice to see dominoes without festool printed all over it.
One of my students was asking if she could do dominoes as her next project. After watching your video, I've decided the whole class is going to do it and we will have a domino party/tournament when we are all done. And of course we will do a domino snake event too. Thanks for your great videos:-)
Great dominoes Stumpy, the only thing missing are the brass centers as stated before. Also, from a player's perspective, the back of the dominoes should be as "plain" or regular throughout the set. A smart player could identify the piece from looking at specific details in the grain. Perhaps some plain color veneer or something similar could work. Cheers!!
"pips," people, not "pits." Stumpy got it right but I guess folks misheard. Same word for playing cards, too. Vocabulary for domino players & magicians. ♠️♣️😜
+Jarek Ostaszewski - It has a carbide plate attached to it instead of sandpaper. It lasts a LOT longer. I'm not sure they produce as nice of a finish, but they are very nice for rough sanding, shaping, even planing because they are flat and square. I have a 60 grit and a 120 grit. I got them at a Woodcraft store. I don;t think they have them on their website. They are a little pricey, I think about $20 each.
+Jarek Ostaszewski It looks like it might be this - Dura-GRIT 5-1/2" 90 Degree Carbide TruSander HT-TS5-120 120 Grit Block Sander - See more at: www.woodcraft.com/product/154111/duragrit-512-90-degree-carbide-trusander-htts5120-120-grit-block-sander.aspx Site says it's Currently Unavailable. Looks like you can get them from the manufacturer, though - www.duragrit.com/intl/tools/handsand/index.html Be warned, they are even pricier than James remembers - the manufacturer site lists them at US $38.23.
@@StumpyNubs thanks for the reply but most importantly for the breakdown of the dimensions of the box in the video. I usually do the math and calculate the inner room plus 1/8th of an inch to allow some expansion of the pieces but your idea is also good! Thanks again
