Pimp your journal! Quick DIY Woodworking Project
Вставка

- If you're taking the time to write things in a journal, why do so in a boring, cookie-cutter design that anyone can go pick up from the store? Instead, follow along as I walk through how to upgrade your journal covers to a sturdier, much better looking material. You can even take it one step further and engrave or burn a design into your new wooden cover (I don't cover it in the video, but I used my laser engraver on a couple).
If you want to try it out, here's a journal on Amazon that should work (affiliate link):

Very cool project!!! Most importantly, it matches your outfit!!!
Orange hoodie, orange beanie, orange mask, orange wood.. man Jackman would love this!
Haha, yeah. Oddly orange has been my primary wardrobe color since at least middle school... I'm just glad there's wood that matches 😅
Very cool upgrade! Looks much cooler!
Thanks a lot, Ethan!
Awesome project! Nicely done! 👍 🥃
Thanks, Nick!
I'm into that orange
Wow that's cool and you can see its freezing in there.
Thanks! And yeah, the temperature went from the teens when I started this, down to just above zero when I finished filming. 🥶
Thank you for making me appreciate my basement shop.... Minnesota is not ideal for a garage shop. Woodworking with winter gloves is an extra challenge but you seem to do fine anyway.
Haha, you're welcome 😅. And I'm doing what I can to set my basement up for other non-woodworking styles of making. So I can make stuff and not freeze.
I have a couple granddaughters that may like to have a personalized note/sketch book.
It's a pretty simple build! I encourage you to give it a shot. If don't want to tackle it yourself, I will have custom journals for sale on my website soon, but you can email me and we can work out the details before I get that listing ready also. 🙂👍
@@BearMaked I would probably customize them on the laser or CNC for the girls
@@ericjohnson6456 that's a great idea. I've already made a couple with custom covers via my laser.
Very interesting Bear bottom, i mean Bear maked😜😎. Hope you are going to do some projects with the longmill cnc. Its going to be a couple months before they have stock so i`m hoping to see youtubers like yourself show a couple projects and give us your overall review after working with it for a bit.
Haha, thanks! I just finished up my second project with it, unfortunately, wasn't planning a video for that one. But there will be some coming up! So far, I really like having this thing at my command.
@@BearMaked I`m Looking forward to some videos of yours to see what you create with the cnc . Stay warm brother your work shop looks cold.👍👍
I get the feeling that your favorite color is orange
A very astute observation, sir. :)
Great video! Thanks for sharing. Let me know if you ever come up with that rabbit sander.
(@monkeywoodworks)
Hahaha, will do. We do get quite a few rabbits in our yard because of the garden... 🤔
Well if it aint my favorite hunter orange woodworker lol what bandsaw u runnin?
Haha! It's a Craftsman something. Akin to the Rikon 8" model, I believe. The guy I bought it from said it was exactly the same saw, I just don't have the model number handy.
@@BearMaked ahhhh the 10"... i know exactly the one you're talking about. I had given them a look but didnt think the resaw power would be there. Maybe ill have to look again
@@BradsWorkbench Yeah, 10" seems right. And I haven't maxed it out, but it's handled resawing this paduak, and some walnut, and red oak pretty easily.
@@BearMaked whats the thickest resaw you've done? Pretty slow going?
@@BradsWorkbench Probably 8". Yeah. I don't have a lot of experience resawing anyway, so I take it slow to be safe. But the saw came with a beefy blade, so that helps.
