    As always .. Superb instruction video and design Peter, and it couldn’t have been timed better.. whilst I haven’t got a festool domino joiner, I’ve just invested in a biscuit jointer.. it does have green on it though 😂. (This should be fun 😬) . Btw I couldn’t help thinking.. maybe a longer table with an M for Millard 🤔 maybe too much 😂.
    As always ., huge fan!
    Cheers Rob

      Cheers Rob! Was eyeing up that biscuit jointer myself - just don’t really need one! I’m just working on spelling out the Zizzi logo, then I can start thinking about Ms… 😂👍

    Very simple yet elegant design!
    I have visited the Rietveld museum (he actually designed a whole house, in Utrecht, the Netherlands), and marvelled at all his different chairs, his designs are awesome. Kept looking at all the joinery methods he used, and wondered if they would hold my weight 😄🪑🦼

    Great to see you are inspired by Mondriaan and Rietveld. They have some fantastic designs. I made the Red and Blue chair and it’s surprisingly comfortable. Also made the Steltman but one hour on that chair is enough.

    Nice to know that pros also have to put in a lot of thinking when building things that are new to them. I am a hobbyist woodworker and do not have access to all the powertools that are available in the western countries. Hence, I also have to thoroughly think and plan everything according to the resources/tools available to me when I undertake a new project. Good learning from you as always, Peter. Thanks a lot.

    Thanks Peter, that's a simple but stylish item, very nice in the simple waxed natural finish, but as you said so many options - I think it could be nice with a contrasting dark diagonal !
    Always good to see content from you, but also hoping the step back is helping with the wrist, I know only too well the perils of not heeding the message that pain is there to warn you of !

      Hi chaps, I’ve had a problem with waxed ply going yellowy. Does Leo’s wax solve this? Cheers

    • @Hand-i-Craft
      @Hand-i-Craft 8 днів тому

      @ Hello there. Yes I think the problem of yellowing is largely down to beeswax based products, but mine doesn’t use beeswax and gives it a more natural looking finish. One point of order though from Peter’s members videos in the build up to this, some birch ply recently has been yellowing ever so slightly with my wax and we believe it is more down to the quality of the ply veneers and not the wax that’s why I’d always recommend doing a test run on a bit of scrap first 👍👍

    Hi Peter, I’ve followed your channel since day one, most informative channel on the net, I do have a question for you, what tracks work with Rutland plunge saw the corded version as the track that came with it doesn’t accept any of the track clips, cheers

    • @10MinuteWorkshop
      @10MinuteWorkshop  День тому

      Thanks James! The Rutlands - like the Lumberjack and the Excel etc.. corded saws - come with the generic rail with the C shape on the left side, so not much good for accessories, as you’ve learned. These saws tend to have a wider base plate too, which makes them incompatible with the Makita rail. Until recently your only serious option would have been Festool OEM rails - typically cutting more than the saw - but we now have the option of the Evolution G2 rails. These are the best bang/buck option tbh; they’re a close copy of the Festool rails, Andre 2x1400 rail set is great value. I talked through the nuances in a couple of videos from last year 👍: Don’t Buy the Wrong Rail - ua-cam.com/video/9SHIrwWMiz8/v-deo.html and Saws Galore 2024! - ua-cam.com/video/yQwIFfn95SM/v-deo.html

    Hi Peter. One of the reasons i like your videis is tge you work in mm. Most American videos use inches, which is frustrating. Many only have plans in imperial measurements. Does the woodworkers guild have msny plans in metric or is it mostly imperial?

    I like the simplicity of the geometric shape.
    I think I prefer the wonky I over Z though would like the leg to sit at a slightly more of an angle, about 20 mm closer to the edge - I see you matched the angle to the bevel but it doesn't look like the same angle (because perspective).
    I'd also consider adding a small ledge or pocket for the tablet to the leg so it can be put away out of sight.

    • @10MinuteWorkshop
      @10MinuteWorkshop  8 днів тому

      Thanks! As always, if you make one you can make any changes you like, but at the risk of stating the obvious, any changes to the positioning would either affect the height or the angle, and one of the reasons the plans aren’t available yet is that it really needs a chart of height / angle / size ratios to go alongside it. 👍

    @MS-watch-YT 8 днів тому

    Nice table, design is very subjective. The bevels all round looked good, but I would have gone with bevel on the ends of the top and bottom to match the centre support and straight sides. Think it would be a bit more dynamic, accentuating the angle like that.
