    Today I picked up 2 very nice blocks. One walnut and one Oak. Because I really liked the tea light block with the built in matchbox. What an easy little project and with Xmas coming up, I will be sending 6 lucky family members/ friends this gift. Cant wait to start this tomorrow. Thanks for the inspiration , CHEERS !

      But what beginner would have a table saw, a router table, or a drill press? These are nice ideas but if they were aimed at beginers, they should have been done with hand tools.

    This seems like so much fun. I'm 13 and I love working with wood. I have only made a few things like a paddle strop and such, and this seems like cool fun easy projects I could do with my parents! I wish I could like this video multiple times, but I can't so I subscribed, can't wait to see more cool stuff I can make! (I better get back to my homework XD)

  • @heyimamaker
    @heyimamaker 5 років тому +14

    Nice one!
    I really like the plywood pencil holder and ring.
    I made a match/candle holder last year but I used the side grain based on how my scraps worked out and after time it actually warped shut and you really can't get the matches out.
    Going on the end grain as you did should be good and sturdy!

    • @DIYMontreal
      @DIYMontreal  5 років тому +5

      I agree, love the look of the Baltic birch plywood. Maybe we should try a plywood candle holder? No risk of warping there.

Thanks for sharing such creative designs!!

  • @methral

    I then take it to my table sa....... wait I dont have a table saw :/ guess its easier to make gifts from wood when you have an actual wood workshop lol

    • @BRExteriorPro
      @BRExteriorPro 5 років тому +19

      Or get a circular saw and get a straight edge

    • @DIYMontreal
      @DIYMontreal  5 років тому +57

      It helps! But a hand saw and handheld drill will work just fine.

    • @Ste74H
      @Ste74H 5 років тому +22

      You could always cheat and reuse an old picture frame for the 'catch-all'. I've bought things from a £1 store and glued them together to make chunky frames then customized it to my choice.

    • @rubberdwellers3911
      @rubberdwellers3911 5 років тому +33

      Do it old school. Nobody needs a fancy woodshop, it's just nice to have.
      You can make rabbit joints with a simple mallet and chisel. To make a mallet find a 4x4 cut 4" piece. Find center and install a handle using a 2" dowel rod. It is rudimental but it will get you started. Practice makes perfect. Improvise adapt and overcome.

    That last one will help me out a lot cause I work at a custom cabinet company. So we have a lot of "scrap" wood( like cherry,white oak,walnut just to name a few). I'm going to make the business card holder and pass it out to the people in the office. THANKS

  • @Belg1970
    @Belg1970 5 років тому +1

    Look forward to some other suggestions. A small step stool, soap dish, mail sorter key hook......
    For the card holder I would add a backing block, when you're down to a few cards in the wider slot they will tend to fall backwards.
    The wall ladder could do with a few additional miter cuts to square it to the floor and wall. For the ones I've seen most are really roughed up to simulate age.

    • @DIYMontreal
      @DIYMontreal  5 років тому +1

      Great suggestions! The beauty with these is you can adapt them and make them your own by tweaking the design and style as you suggested.

  • @tubeonline629
    @tubeonline629 5 років тому +1

A few other subjects range from the various kinds of wood along with their distinct levels of difficulty when it comes to managing them. If you are still a beginner in wood working, then you will find this book very beneficial.

    Not sure why people have to make fun of someone for mispronouncing words. I guess it makes them feel better about them selves. Maybe people in your part of the country just pronounce words differently. Like the word "route." Some parts of the country pronounce it like "out" and some like "boot", except both with an "r". My brother always pronounces sword with the "sw" sound. He just said it that way for so long that it was hard for him to break the habit. So, you call it whatever you want to, the vid was good!

    • @DIYMontreal
      @DIYMontreal  5 років тому +8

      Thank you, I very much agree! Like your brother I have a few words I pronounce a little “off” but am fully aware of it and just don’t take it personally! Thanks though, much appreciated.

      I always want more tools! But a lot of what I do could also be some with more simple tools too.
