Hurray! So glad to find this video.. Love banding videos and for sure have not seen this design constructed before.. It's funny to me as not 3 weeks ago I had cut a block diagonally, saw I could do a zig zag pattern playing around with it.. But then kind of stumped on how I'd glue it. And what would I do with all those gaps at the bottom? Plus it was a thick block at 2 inches thick.. Thinner seems to be trick here. I am for sure going to give this pattern a go in the next few weeks I hope.. Prolly be back here for some tech support on what I did wrong.. :-) . Did you make the cut to trim the tops off after you got it all glued up on the bandsaw or table saw? I think I'd rather use the table saw for cleaner cut? Nice setup on the glue jig.. pressure on all four sides keeping it tight..Although I'd be worried about keeping it clean with all my glue squeeze out.. Seems like you cover that in another video.. I'm in heaven with these videos.. Thanks a ton..
Glad you found us! I’d love to see some of what you make here. Playing around with the possibilities is addictive. You’ll also get better at the squeeze out. Band saw or table saw, either is fine. I use a bandsaw with an appropriate blade to get a clean cut. Takes away less material. I always take a hand plane across the edges for a super tuned and smooth finish. Happy to collaborate and brainstorm with you on your journey.
Easy answer. I rarely use my miter saw. The band saw is safer, especially for small pieces. Try cutting 1/4” slices on a miter saw. Also, the band saw removes about 1/16” material even after planing smooth. The miter saw will be closer to 1/8” or more.
*_fantastic tutorial ma'am!!! The pictures at the end of the video were spectacular and I am sure that I will incorporate this patterning technique very soon. I am overflowing with hardwood scrap in the shop and this is perfect. This is a great way to add a very special touch to a item for the local market!!!_*
Thank you for sharing your knowledge. You have a good voice, clear way of presenting the tips and breaking down the steps so that anyone can follow.👍 P.s. I'm a wood hoarder also.
Ojalá mi español fuera mejor para poder publicar algunos de estos videos en varios idiomas. Pero gracias por mirar. Espero que la demostración le resulte útil al menos.
I stumbled across this video and I am so impressed with your precision. Thank you. You taught me some steps that I missed and I appreciate your sharing the skills. Now I suppose I need to remind myself to apply the lessons you taught. Thank you. Subscriber now.
