Making a Cork Board 

I try to offer something on the program for every skill level. I'm glad to hear that you found it useful. Thanks for tuning in.

It really is an easy project and with your grandfather's help, I'm sure you will be able to make a gorgeous cork board. Thanks for tuning in to the show.

I totally agree Brian. And of course, you can customize it however you like. Thanks for tuning in this week and for taking the time to leave a comment. It's appreciate sir.

First of all, thanks for tuning in to the program on a regular basis Piet. Glad to have you as a subscriber. As for the clean shop....it's simple really....a place for everything and everything in its place. Clutter in a shop is a great way to get hurt so cleaning the shop and keeping it organized should be a priority for every shop. Thanks for tuning in this week and for taking the time to leave me a comment.

Glad that you like it Gigi. Thanks for tuning in to the show.

Glad to hear that you found the show useful Moni. Thank you for tuning in.

Thanks Tomas. I'm glad to hear that you liked the project. Thank you for tuning in to the show.

That is called a jeweller's drill and I got it at Lee Valley Tools. I hope this helps. Thanks for tuning in.

@@acutabove_woodworkings Hey sorry to be annoying, but I don't see one that you "pump" like that, just one you twist by hand. Is there a specific name for the one you are using in this video? That specific tool could REALLY come in handy for me! Once again, thanks!

@@invasionbrand I got this item at Lee Valley and it was called a Jeweller's drill. I went on their website this morning and did a search and couldn't find it. After a quick internet search, it would appear that they no longer carry the product. Hopefully you will be able to source it from somewhere else. I found this one on amazon this morning. www.amazon.ca/Saipor-Manual-Jewelry-Plastic-0-3-2mm/dp/B092292PRC/ref=sr_1_13?crid=3P233UDBOIIZS&keywords=jewellers+drill&qid=1672662526&sprefix=jewellers+drill%2Caps%2C87&sr=8-13

@@acutabove_woodworkings thanks so much, I guess I didn’t recognize it when I searched. Much appreciated!!!

Thanks for the kind words on the project Paul. I'm glad that you liked it. As for the scrap, my cutoff changes depending on my mood. If I think the piece is too small to be milled safely, then it is gone into the firewood bin. When doing one of my model builds, I usually keep all scrap because you never know what you are going to need. I think as long as it is about 3"X3", it would be worth it for me. As for where I keep it all.....it's all in the wood rack with the smaller pieces on a separate shelf at the bottom. I really do need to clean that rack out though so I can inventory what I have. Thanks for tuning in Paul.

I would be more than happy to give you the link to the clamp Raymond. Here it is. www.leevalley.com/en/wood/page.aspx?p=31162&cat=1,43293,31162 I absolutely love this clamp and I also have the extensions which come in handy. If you are to get this clamp, you wont be disappointed. Thanks for tuning in to the show.

Thanks for the kind words Barry, I appreciate it. As for the Christmas list for my wife.....I wouldn't waste a cork board on that. We live in a technology based society so I sent her an email, a text and PDF and a power point presentation. She will also be getting daily scheduled emails reminders of the "wish list" that I have online with my favourite woodworking store. I got this one covered. Thanks for tuning in sir. It's appreciated.

I guess it would really depend on the amount of use the cork board got. I make this one over 4 years ago and I am still using it to this day with no issues. I hope this helps. Thanks for tuning in to the show.

Most stationary or craft stores carry rolls of cork. Craft stores like Michaels, and stationary stores such as Staples. I'm not sure if those stores are in your area or not. Barring that, it is available on Amazon. www.amazon.ca/Lorell-Cork-Roll-Natural-LLR84173/dp/B00B0ASXPS/ref=sr_1_3?dchild=1&keywords=cork+roll&qid=1611228600&sr=8-3 I hope this helps. Thanks for tuning in.

@@acutabove_woodworkings thanks ever so much. Will check Amazon.

I am not exactly sure what it is that you are asking. All material are mentioned during the show. Thanks for tuning in.

The brand name of the spray adhesive I use is called Elmers. But honestly, any spray adhesive will work. It is just fine to apply it to marine grade plywood. I hope this helps. Thank you for tuning in to the show.

I use Elmers spray adhesive but any spray adhesive will work. I hope this helps. Thanks for tuning in to the show.

Thank you!​@@acutabove_woodworkings

Thanks

@@g.k.g.k.6417 You're very welcome.

That tool would be my jewellers drill. I got this one at Lee Valley and unfortunately, they no longer carry them. I was able to find some on Etsy but I can't vouch for their quality as I've never used them. www.etsy.com/ca/listing/196587504/micro-chuck-twist-push-drill-archimedes I hope this helps. Thanks for tuning in

I got the photo turns at Lee Valley tools. Here's a link. www.leevalley.com/en-ca/shop/hardware/picture-hanging-and-framing/turns/48643-photo-frame-turns?item=00F1150 I hope this helps. Thanks for tuning in to the show.
