Nice one John, you just can't beat having a coffin shaped bottle opener 😊

Turned out well. The start of your business empire !!

For your belt sander, give Woodshop Junkies 'Maximizing A Handheld Belt Sander' a go, would be perfect for you :)

I bought a pillar drill at a local auction. It is at least 30 years old and it still works wonderfully. I bought it for the exact same reason you want one. It works. Also, what is it about the phrase: "Don't be a muppet, ..."? I laugh every time I hear it.

A nice little project. I like the tapered look. Good job.

Nice one, tapered look on it looks good as well. Oh and the button next to the trigger will keep the belt sander running without using the zip ties.

Nice project! You could customize it to attach to your beer caddy or build it into your caddy. Maybe even offer a bottle opener/caddy combo for sale. I feel the same way about the drill press. When it absolutely has to be perpendicular, a drill press is the way to go.

Good luck with the sales mate.

Nice 😊 Suggest optimising process for a few things (obviously drill press and jig for repeatability on holes): Taper, do with a tapering jig on table saw / router table, or jig saw then flush trim to template on router table Rounded edges, round over bit on router table Then sand smooth. Will be much more efficient than doing everything with belt sander

Nice wee project few bits of wisdom/info from what a no/done. Belt sander do it upside down there may even be holes in the side the sander and possibly even a random clamp in the box to put it through. Get a sanding rubber if youve not got one. Need get some watco danish oil best of gear. Forsner bits look at abracs as a company they do an amazing set of forsener bits and other bits razor sharp amazing even give them a message if u explain what your doing i can almost guarantee theyll send u box of stuff for a written review!(ask me how a no that!)🤔😀 Oh and my cheap arse mode here Aldi bia moretti substitute just as nice and half the price 👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Great idea but maybe you could expand the idea and add a small box to bottom to catch bottle tops and it could be fixed outside on a fence or shed for when you barbecue . Just an idea.

I really like that I've had the same bottle openers in my workshop for a few years now but never got around to using them. I think I've thought of and bought items for more projects than I've actually ended up making in reality lol. I reckon you'll make a nice little earner out of those. I think that wood looked like oak so you should probably do some with the ebonising solution too. Could you clamp the handle of the sander in your vice maybe so the belt is facing upwards??

Really impressed with the end result. Also really impressed with the channel as a whole. The presentation is spot on and the projects are all things that I would be comfortable having a go at. Keep up the good work! 😎👍

Great vid! I don't believe you ever mentioned your name? Just thought I'd throw it out there! Lol The drill press definitely comes in handy. I have a Ryobi. It cost $180 when I purchased it about a year ago. Of course there are more expensive and better ones but it has done the job when needed. And better bits are the way to go! Next big toy on my list is the jointer.....we'll see! BTW, how is the epoxy table?

Nice video mate. Just out of interest, what adaptor do you use to connect the titan (assuming it is) to the hose. Would like one but currently do not have one. Thanks

Good luck with this project. Bottle openers are always handy to have. What is the name of your Etsy site please?

You getting the Bosch drill?

Hi Great video once again, can i ask a stupid question? , how do you set the thicknesser for first pass, do you place the wood in and adjust on to it to get the right height?
