    Dude... You're a genius. You just taught me at least 3 game changing techniques. Sanding dowels with a drill, using a speed square with a circular saw, and of course the method of making floating shelves without expensive hardware. Thank you! Awesome work! 4:12

    I once built a dog house out of Aspen Board and never bothered to give it a coat of paint. Five years later I passed the dog house on to another dog lover as I no longer had a dog. I don't know how long it lasted after that point or if they painted it, but Aspen Board is pretty durable. 4:46

    • @MOMDOESDIY
      @MOMDOESDIY  5 років тому +3

      Hi.. just the basic actually.. dissolve 1/4 cup of cornstarch in 3/4 cups of cold water then just boil it in medium heat and stir constantly until the paste thickens... 😊

    • @manushig.psychologist
      @manushig.psychologist 5 років тому +1

      Until it resembles a glue like consistency..but the color wouldn't be the same..the cornstarch paste will be somewhat translucent
