    Love your content. Always learn something and really enjoy the way you present the topic. Especially the way you always provide options for tools at different levels of woodworking skill/commitment/engagement/investment however one wishes to quantify it, you provide options. A great way to present to a wide audience. And above all, as always, beautiful work. Love the channel.

    Excellent discussion and tutorial. Allowing us to skip steps (if we know what's going on) is "rad" (that's what we used to say back in the day). I'll be perusing more of your vids!

    I'm very impressed with your channel! Found it back in the spring when I was looking for information on trellises for my garden and became a subscriber after watching that video. Your presentation is straight forward. You are an excellent instructor. I began my woodworking journey after retirement and have learn so much from your content. Well done, keep "em"coming!👍. Of course now I see two "MORE" router bits I need to add to the collection after watching this video.🤣

    You left out one of the best options for sanding and a great finishing wax...Acks Wood Pastes LLC is number one in the USA! Do not have to sand over 320, the abrasive paste on a small drill buffer will sand and seal, then we add the most carnuba wax possible, NO varnishes and have to wait till it cures. We were just featured by the gang at This Old House magazine finishing a table top and using both. 50 years of TV cant be all wrong...beautiful trays and bowls your making!!

    In your video above, at time stamp 13:14, we can see you utilising a router guide plate made from acrylic/plexiglass. It would be great to see you make a short video showing how you made this, and the advantages of such. I know loads of people who would love to watch it. And I'd be able to link people to your video instead of trying to find a way to describe it. I reckon you'd get loads of views! Love your videos. Well done 🙂

    Hmmm, I have a diode laser. I'm going to try designing my own templates and cutting them out of two layers of 1/4" plywood (the laser only cuts thinner wood). Then I'll glue them together for a more comfortable thickness. Then, if needed I can copy the template onto MDF with my router.

      @SixEightWoodworks  2 роки тому +1

      For sure. Small “bites” with incremental depth is the best way to avoid it. Some species are more prone to tear out too. But inevitably I have to patch with some CA glue or do extra sanding/shaping.
