    Looking back through your videos, you have been very busy and now with the home renovation, the steps you have taken bring the processes together
    Tree collection - trailer design, choice of pickup
    Workshop design, machine layout, dust extraction and machine maintenance
    Milling, construction of mill, type of cuts, slab patterns, storage
    Product design, selection of materials
    Manufacture, choice of machine or by hand and processes used
    Assembly, dry - fine tune, glue, final coatings and fitting

    What’s interesting from my perspective is seeing how a woodworker selects grain orientation. For so many years I’ve seen ‘less rustic” grain orientation with an emphasis on hiding knots. You celebrated them here, and I am pleased with how it turned out. Great job. It’s a tree!

    Love the grain and ray fleck - and really enjoy the process. Just finished white oak cabinets in the kitchen, and made them like furniture. Turned out great - especially the multi-layers of finish. 3 coats of color, and 5 coats of clear give it that 'flop' depth. So much fun to walk past them in the kitchen, and see the grain 'change'.
    Waiting on the final - long process, but so worth it!

    The grain pattern really looks interesting, and it goes well with the diamond pattern. It's funny, that when you were first assembling the legs and rails I thought that that's a lot of chunky pieces (chunky in a good way) and then when you stood the assembled pieces up you said, "it's chunky", which made me smile. The grain on the center panels really gives it a lot of character too. Once again, very nice work and it is always interesting to hear your thought process throughout the wood selection and build process.

  • @MaddHatter
    @MaddHatter 2 місяці тому +1

    One thing I am curious about is when you choose to use what tool and why.
    It seems to be when you are rip cutting with large stock you prefer the band saw, even with 1 face jointed. But for final dimensions you use the table saw.
    It also seems like when cross cutting you usually use the big circular saw, but in this video you used a jig saw. My guess is that is because the jigsaw was within reach.

    On a side note... I can't wait to see what toys your kids hang from the diamond holes! 🤣

    Lay the mortiser on its side to remove the base. No need to juggle parts. The only thing you need to handle is the base. Get someone to hold the riser and start the screws. Once the parts are snugged in, you can finish tightening the bolts. Round up the kids for some forced labor for 5 minutes.
