Cam at Blacktail Studio has his “diamond hard” N3 nano kit for $180, that covers 75sqft. That might be a bit spendy for coasters, but it’s the best, IMO.
I’m familiar with it, but haven’t used it. Figured I’d give it a try on my next table build…so I could justify having some on hand and try it out with coasters!
That buckling that happened with the mitered corners: If you install a zero-clearance sacrificial fence (just a piece of plywood or mdf), that will never happen.
Thanks. Yeah, I was being lazy-I keep telling myself I’m gonna do that, then get in a rush and skip that step (which is usually how stupid stuff happens). I have a new Incra miter sled that I’ll probably use for miter cuts on small pieces like that in the future, but didn’t have it set up yet so went ahead and took a chance on the miter saw.
Good question. Depends on the thickness of the material and coaster size, but just high enough so the bottom corners of the coasters don’t touch the surface the stand is resting on. I just used a coaster itself for reference and marked the line. Hope that makes sense.
Great tip with the straw!
That is a really cool coaster holder. And the coasters look awesome as well!
Thanks!

Great video and content. Definitely subscribed to more
Thanks so much!
Make a sacrificial fence for your miter saw for more safety

How high up did you come with the cross brace for the holder?
