THE MATERIAL GUY
Приєднався 29 гру 2017
Follow me in my journey to become a true maker!
Inspired by some of UA-cams greatest makers I started doing little woodworking projects on my own.
So far I made a nice board game of exotic wood, a live edge coffee table and a working didgeridoo, which I will be doing again soon!
I am no master yet, but I wanted to give this a go. UA-cam will be the platform where you can follow my builds and where I will come to ask the community for help.
Feel free to give some advice in the comments if you've got some after watching my video's!

Instrument making: A didgeridoo
It has been a few weeks since my last video. I didn't really get to work on this project as much as I wanted to! But here it is, my second handmade didgeridoo.
I actually made one before out of a Conifer strain from my backyard. This time I wanted to experiment with some powertools, as my first didge was entirely done with a chisel.
I have got some exciting plans for my next video's, so stay tuned!

Padouk toolbox with wooden hinge
Переглядів 9196 років тому
This weeks video took me a little longer to make, because I really had a struggle with this one. You see, as a beginner I make a lot of mistakes. I do learn a lot from them, but the projects take me a lot longer than I was hoping for! Anyway, this toolbox is for my wrench set. Made from Padouk wood which I bought some weeks ago. The wooden hinge was something I wanted to do for quiet a time now...
I've never seen a log split like that before for a didge, you did dam well to stop it splintering and going way off. Nice job though for minimal tools.
Very nice work! What stuff did you use to fill the cracks?
Also since Im a newbie, what liquid did you use and why in the end?
@@jansalk5087 I can't really recall what i used exactly. Maybe I will revisit this build some time and make a better video for it. This one is kind of hard to follow i guess. But some kind of Danish oil is what i put inside, just to close off the wood from moist while playing. I'm no expert on this but it seemed logical to me to do. I filled the airgaps with epoxy in this video, but in the future i just use bees wax, melt it, pour it on and let it cool.
@@thematerialguy8725Thank you so much🙏 beeswax is more original then epoxy as well so that’s a good idea for sure💫
I'd love to know if you have any problems splitting the wood like that. I'm always put off building one because I don't have a bandsaw. Never thought it possible to mechanically split the wood
Hi! I didn't have a bandsaw as well at the time. This seemed like a logical thing to do. it went very well. But it's the only time I did it like this. Just kept looking back and forward to make sure I wasn't going crooked. took my time. Nowadays I use a small bandsaw but actually the fit of this splitting method was way better as there is no material removed from sawing.
Sorry for that, but padouk for toolbox?? It is much better for treasure-box :)
Loved your splitting method!
Very cool!!!
Nice work! Looks like you used every tool in the shop. Lol. If you had to choose just one tool to hollow out, what would you use?
angle grinder with Arbortech Industrial Woodcarver blade.
Ik zag deze en moest gelijk aan je denken. instagram.com/p/BieviCHg_bD/
As you're crafting these from a log you can create an integral, properly sized mouthpiece whilst hollowing the stick instead of later having to add a beeswax mouthpiece. Just a thought!
+kyle maplesden never thought about that! Thanks for sharing :D
Dat is niet makkelijk, zo'n scharnier. Mooi gedaan!
Wow this is fantastic
