Highland Woodworking sells fancy inlay strips in standard widths, really cool patterns!
Great video Steve! I am building a project for our daughters wedding and I think I will add a pin stripe like you have made here. As you have mentioned, it will dress it up a little. Thanks for posting, always learn something.
Good
Great video!
Great projects Steve! Could you make more of these using the bandsaw instead? The bandsaw is easier and less scary to use, compared to a table saw, especially in an apartment setting.
Rithwik Jallepalli I agree, bandsaws are much less intimidating than a table saw. I used a friend's band saw resaw some 1" boards to 1/2" and wasn't the least bit worried about the boards flying across the shop.
You had me at "furniture pin-striping". :D
How do you have that many subscribers, your work is basic at best, just shows people are not educated
OMG. "Furniture pinstriping." I love it!
That was a great line!
Steve, for getting the exact width how about using the router bit between the blade and the fence; set fence and bingo, correct spacing. 🙂
So simple, yet so beautiful. Thanks for the new trick! 🍻
Ya trick ya
💏
Wish I would have seen this before my very thin piece went flying across the shop, another great video Steve.
Damn how long has Steve had that “Steal yo girl” haircut?!?😂
Another excellent video Steve!
Would you consider making the tools list with European links?
Keep them vids coming please :)
“Fancy inlay” *(spirit fingers!)*
It took me almost 3 months, but I have finally watched every video on your channel, including the roller coaster one :P
Thanks Steve! I'm actually working on a project where I'm going to inlay a strip of walnut into red oak. This will be my first time doing inlay so your video couldn't have come at a better time.
MIssing those Gripper skits from long ago…
You are very good at explaining your techniques. You must be a teacher! :) I like your trick on sanding the pin strips when the glue is not completely dry.....i also like the spray gadget for the spray can finish!! Where can one find one of these?
Home Depot has them for very cheap.
Hearing the Words "Spray Lacquer" from you, brings back some old Memories. Bought that same Handle Years ago because of you :)
I was wondering about that handle...Who makes it?
@@PugetSoundFlyer Mine seems to be Brandless, just search for something like "handle spray can"
@@PugetSoundFlyer Believe I got mine at Menards. Other big box stores probably have it as well.
Dwight L hello fellow Menards shopper and Steve Ramsey fan! I’ll have to see if they have them when it’s safe to visit Menards again. I can maybe get one with my rebate money.
I saw them at sLowe's yesterday. Rustoleum was on the package. I almost bought one, but the only spray lacquer available was from Krylon, & the handle package did not say whether it would work on other spray cans. Thinking back, I don't see why it wouldn't. Spray cans probably all come from the same manufacturer.
I'm really liking these more down to earth videos.
*Great Video Steve, Pl Upload More Videos* 👍👌💯
*I could not get the Weekend Workshop but when it will relaunch again??*
*Love From India*
I find the planer works best for me to make the inlay strips and the final thickness of the final piece. I get more consistent thickness of the inlay piece and when glued in place just run the whole board thru for the final thickness of the board. Perfectly flush inlay. That is............ if you have a planer. Thanks Steve. JimE
blackemmons omg I didn’t think of that. I’m going to make a wood frame project, and I can put inlay on all my lengths even before I cut it all to length. It’s a rough project but that’ll be a nice eye catcher. Thank you.
@@BlackSwan912 If you have the equipment I find it a lot more accurate and you get a really smooth finish with the final planing.
New to the channel, im starting with woodworking, you had help me so much, thank you and greeting from Chile.
As always, your videos are very knowledgeable/informative/Enjoyable to watch. Thank you Steve
I've been wanting to do inlays for awhile now. I think you helped with your method. Makes perfect sense to me cut those stops on the outside of blade. Thank you for you for your simple and straight to the point videos.
A great basics video would be on standard sizes of lumber and how best to use sizes for different type of projects. I'm still learning and it's something that would be hugely useful so you come home with the best materials for your project
Another skill to add to all you have taught me. Friends ask me why all my shop projects have interesting little things like this new one... I simply reply: "Because I like to show what Steve Ramsey has taught me!" Thanks SO much for keeping my WoodShop my favorite "dust-maker!"
If you had an Incra Fence you would not have to do all that tapping!🤣🛫 it is nice to see your videos again.
TheFalconJetDriver I’m ‘new’ to this type of woodworking. I use(d) the table saw mostly for larger less precise cuts. My current fence is, well... garbage. Can you recommend brands for a decent fence, and where I can purchase them?
my favorite thing to do is, fill the inlays with epoxy resin. You can literally do any type of color, add stuff in it and when it dries, it turns out real nice. saves from cutting those thin strips too :)
DIY WoodWorking TV how to you clean the top once the resin is cured? I have some some wood Inlay before and cleaned them up in my planer.
Make a basics video on a multi tool
Furniture with custom inlay looks better, as if woman make up. I'll try to do it later.
Steve, Great video as always. Certainly something I need to try.
Glad to see some videos from ya, know you been busy.
CtL
I'm really miss your videos every week
Good content Steve - I'm a fan of inlay. I just recently made a simple picture frame out of padauk. I put just a very thin strip of pine as an inlay around the edge and that's what really made it look nice.
Purple heat in walnut looks alright but I don’t really recommend purple heart unless you have a really sharp blade as it burns easily. Cut a piece on miter saw white a worn blade and the end grain was solid black.
This was an excellent tutorial, as always. Saw a few videos on how to do this, and this explination and steps made it so easy. Short, to the point, clear on every step!. Thanks Steve!
Thanks for this video Steve! Need to do some inlay in a box or so!
My new low cost table saw has a riving knife a little bit higher than a saw, so it is not possible to perform groove cuts... Should I grind a knife at a top or just remove it for this purpose?
Steve, where was this video last week when I screwed up the paper tray and had to do an inlay just like this cover it up? I had to fake it because the internet was sorely lacking a good video on it. Next time I'll try your technique. Great video!
Edit: I just saw you did a video on this last month! Not sure how I missed this!
I hope you see this. Quick question: when you do a quick spray lacquer like that, what exactly are you using, and if you have time, why did you pick that one? Thank you!
I love that you think ahead of any differences between your shop and others’ and address how they might address it, like if their fence does not meet the table as yours does. Your videos are very well thought out.
When to cut a thin piece off. ,,is it better keep the cut off side against the fence side???
Super helpful: & wise tip on sanding before glue dries!
I turn my featherboard around when using it as a stop
Oh man, I hope that was water based laquer....wear a respirator y'all
That bandaid suddenly appearing at 4:39 on your finger is disturbing.
Thanks Steve. I deathly afraid of the table saw, but it think i can do this with a router. I might cut the strip first and then size the groove up according to that.
Another great video!!! Thanks for showing me a new skill that will improved my work. And teaching me that i can do in different ways. You are great!!!
0:47 furniture pinstriping ... I like that!
Super, and you didn't forget in any step the security in handling. Thankyou for showing us this.
You make it all look way too easy but that's actually really heartening since you ALSO make sure that you're telling us the method - so whenever I go to try some of your projects and so forth, I may not be going at it easy-breezy like you, but I can at least know I'm doing it right or not :D
Steve your shop looks so much bigger. Excellent layout and an awesome video
ahem riving knife you’ve seen thinz’s video right?
Awesome pointers like always and I'm a big fan of how you break it down to the basic steps.
I just watched one of your videos from 2012! (The scruffy unshaven one lol). Gee you’ve really come a long way!!
Wish I would have seen this before my very thin piece went flying across the shop, another great video Steve.
Another informative and pleasant video. Thanks, Steve. That was a nice Friday afternoon treat.
Perfect, as always, Steve - the fact that you can employ so many differing techniques in the cutting approach of course caters to every woodworker's powertool inventory. Classy finishes; my only wish would be, that spray laquer be freely available in the UK - perhaps I'm not sourcing from the right stores - but it's peculiarly difficult to obtain same. Thank you very much
!! :D
Stewart Macdonald sells spray laquer.
Thank you, Henry...three years on, I have found a supplier. That said, your gesture was very kind,
Andrew 🙂
Great video as always. Gonna try this on my next project.
Has Steve made a video about how to make a zero clearance insert plate?
And if you have any bits leftover, you can try some Kumiko !
Thanks for the info Steve! 😃👍🏻👊🏻
Really love the result, but if you don't have a perfect rip fence, this is going to be a chore.
Also, what about the riving knife?
Zero clearance insert doesn't allow it's use.
@@mtmarcy4495 Why?
@ When you try and raise the blade up, it will hit the bottom of the Zero clearance insert and push it up. You can use it if you cut all the way to the back of the zero clearance insert, but then you lose some stability, and pieces can potentially fall in, it's really up to you for your own preference. I just take the riving knife out since it's really easy in my table saw.
When the blade is set lower than the workpiece you have to take the riving knife off otherwise the workpiece would hit and woudn’t get past the riving knife.
What happened to measuring?
Did you modify your Gripper to accommodate thin strips?
There's a Gripper add-on that's a 1/8" leg for thin strip ripping. It's the green part you see on the fence side of the Gripper.
@@Not_TVs_Frank - OK. Thanks!
Ps french canadien
Have you tink
Using a ossiling tool to cut it flush
Or a japonise saw , with a litel shim ( masking tape 3 layer maby
Or plastick from packing )
Insted of the table saw
And resaw (6:39)
Toes peace of wood
And after cuting with occiling tool or japonise saw
Finising with sanding
Cause your idee of filling smale hole si verry good 😉😆
I prefere using those tool (ossling tool &japonise saw ) insted of table saw
Feal mose safer for me
Pps i use the ossiling tool
To cut the smale strip dose i don't like on my cabinet cause the are a nusante 😣
✨Oohhh fancy ✨
hello from ukraine .you are a cool dude.!
Steve is back😊😊
I have to do a brass inlay work using 3mm square brass rods, I intend to use veneered mdf as a subtrate to avoid solid wood board movement. However, I am concerned if I use the hand router or a CNC to make groves for the brass, then the veneer may chip off during the routing. The inlay design would be geometric lines. Any advises to avoid the chip off of the veneer would be highly appreciated. Thanks and best..
Thanks Steve, I gotta try this.
I want you tool list but I have to subscribe. There is no option to receive the tool list without subscribing. I know I can unsubscribe, but I don't want to go on the subscription list in the first place. Is there another way to get the list?
It's free.
Steve, I appreciate that your channel shows how to do hard things the easy way. I've learned a lot. Can you do a video on making your own table saw insert plates?
Steve I have one basic question for you. On your table saw, what blade are you using please? Do you find a 100 or higher tooth count blade makes smoother cuts?
Hey Steve, I see you're not using a splitter or riving knife in most of the video. I have a table saw with no riving knife and I have been just not using it for 6 months because I have been told it's stupid to use a table saw without one. Its keeping me from woodworking. What can I do without a riving knife safely? Does a feather board make a riving knife less necessary?
Great Video Loaded With Great Information !
"Extra Fancy" Very nice Steve.
just cut the thing a 1/16 oversize and use a small handplane to remove the material sticking out the board cutting those strips on a table saw is not efficient and everybody has a cheap handplane
Very cool!!
Thanks
I just watched one of your videos from 2012! (The scruffy unshaven one lol). Gee you’ve really come a long way!!
Pura vida Steve great video on good technique is to cut off tiny piece of lumber with the outside of the blade saw
You read my mind. Ive found another good reason to use an inlay. If you're using reclaimed wood that has nail holes in it, inflating is a good way to cover them up. It makes the piece look nice and you don't waste good wood.
The ridgid tablesaw aint available in my country. Which one should I get then?
I cut my gripper the first day I got it. Brilliant!!! I would cut the groove and then the spline and plane it to fit, but that is me.
the GRRRRIPPPER!
Hi, Steve. In fact, marquetry gives a very beautiful appearance. It seems to require a lot of precision to perform, in addition to skill. Thank you so much for sharing this video and have a great week.
You're the first one to say things both inches and centimeters. Sounds silly but for non american's watching this really helps a lot. You're the best!
I have noticed that when you use spray lacquer you use some sort of special head. What is it?
At 6:40 , another option is to use strong double sided tape and stick your thin work-piece on a square scrap and run it through your tablesaw
Thanks for the glue/sanding/sawdust hint. I am sure it would present a better appearance than filler. I will try to remember it for future use.
New project idea: A long/horizontal Langstroth hive with cutouts for flow frames on one end. :D
If you don't want to or can't keep bees you could always sell or giveaway the finished apiary.
Absolutely fantastic videos, thank you! I've got a question for you or user experienced workers:
What do you do if your inlay is a hard wood but the surface is a soft wood? If it's slightly above the surface, when you sand it down I'd expect that you'll also sand down the soft wood more and retain an undesirable bump.
Awesome video. Have you ever tried adding color to wood glue for the pop of color? Can’t remember who did it but seen somebody add red and black to give a pin strip or outline. It was cool nevertheless
I would ALWAYS prefer the bandsaw on those cuts since it's much safer, still good video
I read the title as Custom Inlays for your PLYWOOD Projects, and I liked that idea too, despite that was not the video
Another great video, Steve, but I have to ask, "Does the phrase 'eyes and ears' mean anything? I''m not complaining.
what kind wood is that?
Top seu trabalho
Can you recommend another micro jig? The one on your page is no longer available.
For the second method, what about stacking them up and putting a brad in each end?
...and don't forget to put the crappy inlay side against the wall
Great info steve
Steve, thanks for this video I enjoyed it. Even adding it my saved playlist. Until next time. *Chris*
