Didn’t know propagation stations were even a thing! Been wanting to get more little plants for my home. Seems like this would be a great way to go. Thanks for the inspiration!
If you want a clean exit (sawing but especially hole-drilling) you've got to either flip it part-way, or drill into a sacrificial chunk of scrap wood. The entry cut is always going to be cleaner than pushing out the other side. Yikes that blowout! A little planning saves a lot of clean-up. Some improvised clamping could've made the standing one's corners aligned and square. Doesn't take a ton of specialized tools, just pause a minute when it starts feeling janky. A couple heavy objects and a factory-square edge (something plastic or glass) to brace against would do the trick if you don't have a carpentry square. And the best advice comes from Adam Savage: if you're doing something for the first time, resign yourself to doing it twice! The second one is always immensely better, and you'll retain your new skills better. Good on you for trying something new! To quote another legendary fabricator: If you haven't made mistakes, you haven't made anything!
omg thanks for all these tips! It would've totally helped to have a clamp, and I'll definitely keep the clean exit thing in mind for next time. Thanks so much for checking out my video! And love that quote 😊🙌
Both of these propagation stations are so creative! My high school chemistry teacher had a lot of plants in the classroom, so the test tube hanging station reminded me of being in that class. I love how minimal and clean each look though, and you always come up with the craftiest designs. Great video Eunice!
Can't say I'm quite familiar with woodworking or propagation stations. But thanks for giving us safety advice for prospective viewers making the stations, such as telling us to have a clamp to hold down the board, as you're drilling. Definitely helps out newcomers.
Wood clamps also press your pieces tightly together when the glue is drying! You andJason should revisit his old the DIY coffee table if you want to do another wood working project :)
Thank you! the holes are loose enough that I slowly twist the glasses out sideways. If the wood is properly stained and sealed, you can also glue the glasses intact and pour it altogether ❤️
Who else is propagating plants lately? Which station is your favorite? 🌱🌿
Loved both, but I’ll try making the second one which was the one I saw on pinterest ❤️ thank you
@@melissashimmer Thanks for watching ☺️❤️
i realize Im kind of randomly asking but do anyone know a good website to watch newly released movies online?
@Ashton Alfonso try FlixZone. You can find it on google =)

You need to try! Thanks for watching :)
These look great! Ever since quarantine, I'm slowly becoming a plant hermit XD
Thanks! haha quarantine has got us all turning into plant mamas and papas

Thanks so much Ryan! haha glad the hanging station gave you some nostalgic memories 😆
I looove the tube ones, they look so pretty!
Thank you!! :)
Well done
Thank you!!
They turned out so good! Definitely a project that I'll bring up with my GF to spruce up our place a bit!
Thank you!! hope she likes the idea :)
i bought the standing one from AliExpress 2 days a go haha
I wish I could DIY the same but i know it d be a failure for clumsy me ;p
haha I felt the same! The only thing motivating me was being halfway in through the process 😂
Im building my first station this week, thanks for all the tips
Good luck!! Thanks for watching :)
test tube ones are really cute but standing ones are my favourite!
Yay! Glad you like the standing one :)
Omg so creative! I must try!
Thank you!
wowowow. I had no idea what a propagation station was. It turned out beautifully.
Thank you love :)
This is amazing how you made it yourself!
Thank you!! (:
Love both of them 😍
Thanks! :)

Yeah I learned from not taking all of the precautions so I highly recommend them! Thanks for watching :)
Wow 👏 👏 kudos for the detailed instructions for newbies like me. love the second standing one! Perfect for propagating plants and gifting 🎁 friends!
Thank you! Yes these really are good gifts
So cute! I'm so inspired to upgrade my propagation station, which is just a bunch of cleaned out old jars :P
Thanks! old jars work great too :)
*Ohhhh handing, and standing ✌🏻👍🏻👍🏻✌🏻👌🏻✌🏻*
Dang you're gonna be the next Rachel Metz haha. Congrats on getting into power tools. Love it! Can't wait to continue seeing your DIY GROWTH!
haha heck yes!! Thanks for the support :)
Wood clamps also press your pieces tightly together when the glue is drying! You andJason should revisit his old the DIY coffee table if you want to do another wood working project :)
Yes!! I've seen. Regretted not getting a clamp haha, that'd be a fun project :)
I love this! Been wanting to make a propagation station for ages. Thank you 😊
Thanks for watching 😊
They look so good. How do you change out the water with the 2nd one? do the glasses come out easily?
Thank you! the holes are loose enough that I slowly twist the glasses out sideways. If the wood is properly stained and sealed, you can also glue the glasses intact and pour it altogether ❤️
Those look so sick!🔥 Loved the creativity
Thank you!! :)
omg. this is a public service. thank you.
Thank you for checking it out!! 🥰
What size hole saw did you go with for the test tubes?
It was an 1" wide hole saw. Sorry this is late!
in order to not crack the board
use electric tape to the surface you are going to cut
Oh thanks so much for the tip! :)
What's that glue you have used there?
I used Titebond wood glue!
