Not only are you a detail-oriented craftsman, you also have a twisted sense of humor... which is awesome. How does one break a router bit? Also, while hand tool work is awesome and useful to know, you gotta consider that time is key when doing commission work, so not everything can be Roy Underhill style.
@@FortressFineWoodworks It does, and practice makes it easier... two options - you look like you're trying to use just your arms or mainly your arms, so I'd say try leaning your whole body into the planing, or use a pull stroke instead of the usual push.
That‘s probably the most deserved sub recently. I‘m about to start woodworking myself and build my boys a built-in bunk bed. Your videos are an inspiration. And i like your sense for humor as well
You can eliminate tear out on top with one shallow back cut, then coming back with required depth with a regular cut. Nevertheless this is inspiring, keep in up!!
Great job! this is my new favorite wood working channel :D I can totally relate as well when you learned to weld, exact same thing happened to me! :D keep it up!
Great job! From a fellow woodworking business owner 👏 It’s always fun to see someone’s process! Also congratulations on taking the step to make a great RU-vid video.
Awesome job to make cleaner welds after grinding. Angle your cuts towards the inside of the metal rod. /] outer/viewable part of the project being the bracket.
Really great work on this project. I have done similar work in the past and rather than cutting individual strips for the slatted wall I opted to keep the panel together and cut relief lines in the material (basically cutting small dados to give the impression of slats). Once you apply paint its impossible to tell the difference and it saves the effort of having to afix the strips to a backer panel.
@@FortressFineWoodworks one of the panels we made was in black. We did set the nozzle specifically for the recesses. Once they were painted we reset the nozzle and proceeded with spraying as usual. We did also do several panels in prefinished maple that had finer grooves. The shadow line from the grooves was perfect for the effect.
Wow! What a great video. So nicely done. Great story telling. The welding piece was funny as hell. And to boot...the project is fantastic. Do you have a spray finish video? What spray system do you use? Love your work, young man.
My only spray finish video as of now is my conversion varnish shootout video. This doesn't go into detail about how to spray though. I use an apollo A7700gt spray gun (that is worth the 400! Trust me) and an earlex prayport turbine. I like turbines because they offer more air at less psi.
Using Moisture resistant mdf is a good start. It's slightly more sealed so it paints nicely. For this GF black poly, I didn't need to prime. I sprayed one coat, then sanded 4 hours later with 320 grit, repeated this process again, then sprayed one last even coat. I use a high solids tip in my apollo atomizer gun but this stuff would probably spray nicely out of a cheaper gun.
Yes, there are tubes designed for running low voltage wires through, going through the wall from the computer to the monitor. Then outlets are located by any item that needs direct power.
