    some of the raw ingredients we get at work sometimes comes with big green rubber bands "holding" the drums together. They're a bit wider than the ones you seem to have. No, they won't hold a full drum to its 3 mates on a pallet. They just use them for transporting the empty steel drums around before filling. I've snagged several and used them for shaping Veg Tan leather, shoe repair, wood glue-ups, and holding hoses in place etc.

    I would really love a CNC. I think my productivity would really increase, and would the items I could make. I really want to make my own body, but I’m so nervous in case I screw up the piece of irreplaceable vintage wood that I have. I’m almost sure I’ll screw up the neck pocket.

    • @timsway
      @timsway  4 місяці тому +1

      Make a bunch out of less valuable wood first, plywood, 2x4s, pallet wood, whatever. that's how you learn and build confidence to make them when "it counts"

    • @thesausage351
      @thesausage351 4 місяці тому

      @@timsway thanks for the advice man. You’re right, confidence is a big part of it. I have some good tools and using metal I’m quite competent at shaping etc but if I cut too much metal off, I can use body filler or weld more on. I really like this block of wood and I don’t want to cock it up, haha. I’d like to experiment more with glueing/doweling and making things out of offcuts etc as it’s a lot easier to get that wood free or cheaply and I like seeing the different grains and colours etc.

      @@thesausage351 like in welding, your first welds aren't going to be as strong or pretty as your last. everything takes time to learn. Don't expect perfection on your first go, but also don't let the fear of failure stop you from striving for it.

    • @timsway
      @timsway  3 місяці тому

      I drilled dowel holes into the body and top plate to help me align them in gluing and to keep it from sliding. A normal person would use store-bought dowels, but in my house we always have some half-used pencils that no one wants to write with anymore, so I just use those instead of buying dowels.
