      Metric is just 10ths, 100ths, 1000ths. Just because you call it 7mm doesn't change the fact that it is 7/10ths of a cm.
      Fractions are still fractions.

      @anthonyleblanc8915 Рік тому

      I don't feel it was all that complicated if you know simple math. 14 and 15/16. Divide 14 by 2 and get 7. Multiply 16 by 2 to get 32. So 7 and 15/32. Even on the ruler isn't that hard to find if you know 15 is only one 32nd mark before 1/2 since 16 is half of 32. It can get slightly more complicated if you're staying with an odd number, but even that's not that hard.
      15 and 15/16 just becomes 7 and 16/32 plus 15/32 which gives you 7 and 31/32. Or one 32nd mark before 8.

    3:15 My father brought me up from a young age knowing how to work wood properly (how many kids this generation can set up daddy's Record plane at 10?).
    "Remember," he said many many times, "your mark has thickness." 40 years later, every time I mark my work with anything other than a knife scribe, I already have his next question in my mind: "do you need to keep the line, lose the line, or cut on the line?" Such a simple concept that *always* makes planning a joint -- or any cut at all -- so much easier and makes my work flow because my mind is in the right place.
    (Marking the waste without stopping to think is another thing...)

    Very cool, I think something else that could work would be a tensegrity structure but using fishing line or some other wire that's transparent and strong, and then putting the parts that connect to the center wire deeper into the wood so you can't see them. I don't know how strong it would be though, and you could very easily break the illusion if you just tried putting your hand between the 2 wood pieces.

      @isaacholzwarth 2 роки тому

      Wouldn't really work here because you'd still need a rod of some kind protruding down to well below the top of the bottom half of the coat rack as that is what actually holds up a tensegrity object. The only benefit to that would be that you would have an object that functionally looks exactly the same, but the upper part would wobble and have a bit more of a floating effect, which could be neat, but also could be created via other means. With a peice this tall balance would be an issue.

    Every time I've ever used wood for anything I've always hit it with boiled linseed oil. If you don't treat a wood it just rots quickly and dries out far too quickly. If you just put an epoxy or in a finishing coat it's still gets oxygen and oxidizes. Or it's just me but I really like it when there's boiled linseed oil on there
