Using an off cut of sepelle - that's up there in Rag'n'Bone Brown Bingo with "Old Coats Stands", "Removal of Waterstains" and "Footage of Dylan in Workshop". Nice build, Keith.
I have been following your channel since the dog house build, and I must say that I love how much more comfortable you have become on camera and on the voice over 👏🙌
It was a nice touch to make the screw heads all face the same way, a lot of people just screw them in and having them all the same way just finishes the job off.
More considerations to making a dart board cabinet than I thought. Good job mate. One of the magnets is probably a duffer. Tested with other (good) magnets, it'd appear to work but test it with a piece of steel, pretty sure you'd find which is the weak, demagnetised one pretty quickly.
Really nice finish to the project.The brass screws were so much better.Would be interesting to see the finish when your client has completed his chalk board etc.
Hi Ya Keith, some project and I feel your pain... it looks like it was a tough one that seemed it would never go away. I know it it well mate, been there and done it....could write a book on it and retire.....but I think I may have the solution to your magnet problem. Sometimes these magnets don't click together if one or both are 1. not seated absolutely flat - instead are slanted off on a minute angle so that the faces don't fully connect to each other. Or 2. one or both are sunken to far down by a fraction. Sometimes an extremely thin shim the same shape as the magnet, can be glued on top of the sunken magnet to pack it up a bit. Trust me, I have had the same problem with some jewellery boxes I make. :) Take it easy dude and well done for persevering.
Great project, it looks fantastic. I’m sure you have already checked but are both the magnet magnetic, have you tried them with a piece of steel? They may just be blanks or have lost their magnetism?
Nice work once again Keith as a fellow small shop guy bet you're glad its done and out of the way nothing worse when one job is holding up 5 other smaller jobs I just totally gutted my shop to build all new benches, storage and mobile tool carts now to rewire electrics and redirect the dust extraction
The finished cabinet looks great. When I use rare earth magnets, rather than use two opposite each other I will use one with a steel plate or screw then I don't have to worry about getting the polarity wrong. Your issue may be that there is a gap between the magnets, so the 'pull' feels stronger on one side compared to the other?
I have had the "magnet problem" a couple of times.Both times, in my case, one or both the magnets wer very slightly below the the rim. I did not have them secured in one case, so just added a very thin washer. The other one was already secured, so had to glue a thin disc to one of the magnets
Great project, looks lovely. I’m doing the small workshop project shuffle myself at the moment, I know how frustrating it can be, especially with our weather. Health and happiness to you Keith. 👍🏻
Well done on one of those 'up-hill' type projects. I find that spray contact adhesive is really good, but rather messy. There is a thinner/cleaner fluid available but its rather potent, I'd worry about going near the wood finish with it on a cloth. The magnet problem...I think they're not actually making contact with each other. Either the door has a gap or the magnets are sunk in a bit too far. All in all though, a beautiful, practical piece.
When I have mounted dartboards before you get a centre mount included, single screw into the back and a slotted bracket on the wall easy to turn and lift on and off
Problem with the magnets might be localized polarity. Magnets can have certain areas that are polarized differently. Get a sheet of magnetic viewing film and you can "see" the fields.
It does appear to be a polarity issue with the magnets. By testing them "independently" with other magnets, it confirms two things: 1. The magnets in place are functional 2. The 'test' magnets are turned correctly to work, but only because you have that capability to rotate them giving you 'confirmation bias'. Other than destroying a portion of the box to remove one of the magnets and turn it for 'testing polarity', you are out of options with the exception of adding additional magnets, something that I don't think your client would be up for. Great work as usual, already looking forward to next weeks installment!
You'll have to ask Keith why he used two magnets, that was his choice. However, using two magnets does work as one set is operational while the other is not. He clearly demonstrated that the magnets do in fact work by using other magnets, so the only plausible explanation is that the polarity is reversed (put in backwards) on the case. You may refuse to believe that reversed polarity is not the issue, but after clearly seeing that the magnets do in fact work otherwise, I would gladly entertain other explanations offered by you.
Peter Poertner that doesn’t show the magnets are working. If it was a piece of steel that was used it would show that both magnets are still magnetic. Using a magnet to check just shows it ferrous
There's no point in testing the not working magnets with working ones to find out if they are 'broken' because they're metal - so magnets would stick to them. See if the magnets in the case will grab not magnets, ie other bits of metal.
could this be the perfect client? nothing worst than someone who doesn't know what they want and wastes a lot of your time uming and aring and changing their minds! good finish though! that client must really love darts that's for sure!
I get the feeling the client was a challenge. Have to say your skill level is getting better and better. Well done

Esmari Mostert I was going to say I've noticed for a few videos his commentary has seemed less robotic. He seems more relaxed in himself.
Thank you so much!

Absolutely love those hinges.
Man that cork looked like a nightmare to work with! Awesome job.

I lol'd when you put that tiny dart board in that huge cabinet.
Really nice finish to the project.The brass screws were so much better.Would be interesting to see the finish when your client has completed his chalk board etc.
Well the end product looks super and I love the hinges and catches. A really well built unit Keith. Great video mate 👍🏼👍🏼

It came out outstanding . Great job !!!!!!!!!!!!
Loved the "Diresta knife toss"!!!!
Great video.. Sounds like this client was a tricky customer! But you pulled it off.. Great finished piece.. Well done mate..
Great project, it looks fantastic. I’m sure you have already checked but are both the magnet magnetic, have you tried them with a piece of steel? They may just be blanks or have lost their magnetism?
Blimey Keith that was a hell of a head-scratcher! So many design features to think of, nicely done.
Cheers Clint, it’s certainly given me a craving to do some quick, simple and small projects 😂

Cheers Ben, good luck with the new workshop set up
Looks great Keith. Awesome job.
So beautiful. And damned magnets!! Never working when you want them to, always jumping on you unexpectedly and pinching your fingers...hate them...
Yeah I don’t get why they don’t work 🤷♂️ very strange
A lot of work very well done
Nice project and a good detailed video probably a duff magnet 🧲
Great project and it trun amazing piece of furniture

Nice! I already loved part 1. is the magnet problem not caused by the hinges?

Great job dude. Looks fantastic. Well done👍
Thanks 👍

Great job. Thanks for sharing. I have seen some very interesting details again.
Great work
Nice work Keith. Your client should know you can get blackbird vinyl. I'm not sure if it's any use but it's an option. Really great job.
Very professional!
Thank you!
This is such a superior dart board you made!!!
Thank you!

Great looking project Keith ☺. Hope it was well received
Cheers Stephen 👍
Very nice. Good attention to detail and finish as always.
What make of Shellac did you use.
I actually used two on this, something called Bird Brand which I’ve been unable to find lately and some Rustins
You've scored 180 with that project!

Bet you are happy to get that out the way. The client sounds really picky.
I think the magets are not magnets and just metal.
Anyway great work.

Why should one use two magnets? Is one rare earth magnet and one piece of metal not enough? In that case there cannot be any problem with polarity.

He clearly demonstrated that the magnets do in fact work by using other magnets, so the only plausible explanation is that the polarity is reversed (put in backwards) on the case.

I thought dartboards normally come with a bracket provided that allows the board to be rotated
You checked that the two magnets attracted but did you check they both repelled?
I didn’t check that...
There's no point in testing the not working magnets with working ones to find out if they are 'broken' because they're metal - so magnets would stick to them. See if the magnets in the case will grab not magnets, ie other bits of metal.
If you grab two magnets in pliers and rotate them together do they suddenly stop working?
Great job well done for sticking at it, are the magnets demagnetised ?
Thanks Michael! No idea 🤷♂️
It looks beautiful, though it seems to be a difficult job.
What is the finished cost to the client?
Magnets, how do they work?
magnetic

@Maxx Kroes It seems sometimes that is not totally true.

Hey Keith, what's the titan box in your dining room, a track saw?

@@RagnBoneBrown disappointing
The sheet material cost 😱
That’s crazy expensive for walnut MDF, in New York I buy it at $130 and I know David picciuto in Ohio gets it at $60. So luckyyyy
The price I gave was for two sheets, but yes, very expensive

could this be the perfect client? nothing worst than someone who doesn't know what they want and wastes a lot of your time uming and aring and changing their minds! good finish though! that client must really love darts that's for sure!

Your using gay magnets. Check the gay rating on the back of the package
Lol wat?
stay under 500 milligay and they should work ok
