Two Stage Vacuum Press For Woodworking
Переглядів 21 тис.5 років тому
Hi everyone, since I took this video down a year ago I have received dozens of requests to put it back up, so hear it is. Watching it is not easy I know as I am the worst person ever to narrate and talk in these videos, so apologies for this but hopefully you will get the gist of what I am talking about so that you can go ahead and make you own vacuum press for cheap. Make and set up a two stag...

    Stunning !! But I do wonder with all the time and effort to veneer the centre piece, would a solid piece of jarrah been cheaper?

    • @darrenoatesfinefurniture3648
      @darrenoatesfinefurniture3648 2 дні тому

      Thanks very much. I wish that were the case that I could just use a solid piece of timber. Unfortunately due to timber movement depending on the ambient humidity levels I would not be able to make this piece with a floating top. I would have to use another method to fix the top to the base. By having the veneered top this totally eliminates timber movement. Hope this made sense. Cheers and thanks for watching

    I enjoyed your videos so much in the past that I was ready to post my first UA-cam comment as I always lie low and don't bother. I wanted to tell you to keep it up and I was worried by some of your commentary that you were getting discouraged. To my huge disappointment you were gone and I thought what a loss! Glad to see you back and please keep the videos coming as much as possible whether narrating or not. I can imagine it takes a lot of time to put these out so thanks very much.

    A great build Darren, thanks for posting. I am in awe of your work, workshop and methodology. I fully appreciate the time that goes into building this with the amount of jigs you have to have every piece come out the same. It takes the guess work out and the project comes together faster and accurate. I have mainly been doing furniture repair and restoration and yes it has its own challenges, but watching your video has me yearning to create beautiful functional pieces out of amazing timbers we have available to us in Australia. Thank you again for sharing your work 😊

Interested to know what machine you were using to do shaping on the legs (around 46-47 minutes in from the start of the video), sort of looked like a spindle sander on steroids. Was it some sort of spindle Moulder? Cheers from the far south coast, Jenny
