I can’t believe I just found your channel about a month ago! I’ve been trying to watch all your videos because I am so impressed with your skills. I was you about 40 years ago! Building stuff and learning skills at a young age. Teaching myself how to use different tools and trying new things. However, your skill set is far better than I was at your age. I really enjoy your commentary during the videos and I’m really impressed with your attention to detail. Love your style and I’m looking forward to more videos. I watch and it makes me smile and in a way, I’m super proud of you. It’s good to know that we have younger generations carrying the torch onward.

I wanted to wave a hand at you. many years back when I worked in construction there were no other women around. Ivenjoyed working with wood with my tools because Iiked to get my hands dirty, now I have a small shop like you. I can’t begin to tell you how good it feels to see other women enjoying this craft. It really makes my heart smile. Because back then it was hard spiritually working where women weren’t thought to belong .. but I did ❤️

@NickGranville Жыл бұрын

Looks great. Just curious, isn’t the glue is plywood toxic? Or did you use a ply which is good safe? Maybe it’s ok when it’s sealed? Asking cause I like the idea and may use it up my ply scraps in the future in a similar way. Thanks

@GetHandsDirty Жыл бұрын

I wouldn’t say it is safe as a cutting board but with a proper food safe finish that seals the plywood, there wouldn’t be a problem placing food on top. Even if the plywood resin was food safe, I wouldn't use it as a cutting board because the birch layers are quite splittery. I don't recommend sharp knives on this type of kitchen board.

@petpaltea Жыл бұрын

@@GetHandsDirty I depends on the plywood and/or MDF you have. I know, you are in contact with producers of these colored MDF; maybe you should ask them. Formaldahyde is no joke, even if some say small doses are not toxic. Oiled or wax finish will not keep off gassing in check, even it is small or negligible. Selling material that is not food safe as "food safe" is a bit misleading, to say the least.

4:08 Use the remaining open time to allow the glue to loose some moisture and soak into the fibers. Once the surface starts to become tacky you can assamble the pieces without them swimming all over the place. Also you wont get as much squeeze out.

@GetHandsDirty Жыл бұрын

I see what you mean, but doesn't the glue line become thicker? Since less glue will escape because it isn't runny anymore.

@vdis Жыл бұрын

@@GetHandsDirty The idea is let the glue soak into the wood. Then there is no need to force glue in and you only need a fraction of the glue you used before. Finding a good balance with minimal application of glue and squeeze out while maintaining the strength I haven't mastered, yet. I still use too much glue and most of the time I don't wait long enough (or my glue is just too old). So I still produce squeeze out but the "swimming" isn't as bad as before. I've learned this from other woodworkers on YT. None are english, though.

2:46 Here's an idea of what to do with small, unwanted wood scraps: sound diffuser panels - especially big ones. Cutting off the jagged edge at 2:46 you instantly get one, albeit rather small. People pay seriously good money for these things and I bet one made of multicoloured bits of mdf is one no-one has ever thought of making. Search for sound diffuser (diffusion) or sound absorber (absorption) panels and you'll instantly find what I mean. They can take a lot of time to make if you're cutting the bits that are needed to make them intentionally at random lengths but if you already have a head start on this, why not?
