I learn something new from you every video. We share common interests, yet live on opposite sides of the globe. Thank you for making these videos, they have a definitive impact on my woodworking and furniture making. which is my life. Keep doing what your doing. Every video gets a 👍🏻 click!

Beautiful wood. Lots of work in milling and preparing. I share your pain with the wood bowing overnight. I have a swear box in the shed for just those moments. At least it is not being painted to hide those grain patterns Thanks Joey.

I assume the front panel bowed because it dried from the outside, while staying wet (humid) inside. It would probably help to leave the drawer opened for several days, and then make a finish with a water resistant lack. Or on the contrary, to cover the front panel with lack as soon as possible, before it starts to bend due to different humidity.

Another option for the drawer front supports would be recessing them into the drawer front material in a groove. Still leaving enough material for a screw to bite onto, and going further than that would be having them sliding dovetails so no need for screws means you could recess them even further.

Rimu is an 'interesting' timber. Through and through (plain-sawn) slabs not that rare in the South Island (several West Coast millers have wind thrown concessions, and there's someone in the far north recovering 150 year old river rimu - I just bought some). Your piece was mostly 'sap'. Quite blond, as someone else said. Heart rimu is almost a different timber. Beef red, quite brittle but mild to work, silky finish from sharp tools, spectacular when oiled. Truth be told, 'heart' vs 'sap' doesn't make much sense when talking about rimu. Age of the tree seems to make the most difference, not size. I have some heart timber (a half cube or so) milled for me by local miller Jan Dirks from Okarito Forest in the 80s. It's spectacularly good , not at all like the board you had to work with. I'm eking it out - small boxes and the like, sold through my local museum. I'm in two minds about rimu. I like it, but given a choice I'd prefer walnut (black or English), matai (New Zealand's native equivalent of cherry, also known as black pine) or even white oak (from recycled furniture) or sapele, from furniture.

Zane H, Once a client convinced me that they wanted an "oiled" birdseye maple kitchen. I did it, but got the phone call within 6 months that they wanted to pay me for a better finish. Turns out the housekeeper liked to flood the countertops with water and it ran down the cabinet fronts. I noticed the noon sun happened to hit the sink cabinet and I'm sure that didn't help. Since then, I will only build cabinets near water with a conversion varnish finish. I use the lowest (dull rub) gloss level and have never looked back. I think you are right, at some point, if you have been in business a while, you know more than clients about a lot of things. I've learned to speak up and if anything it's helped my business.
@zaneh62246 жыл бұрын
Tom, couldn't agree more, I learned as a hobbyist what work's and does not work, once you start charging for your work you can't chance experimenting, it's not only the client you need to protect but your reputation. I use Norglass two-pack aliphatic linear polyurethane, for timber going into wet areas, this product is Marine grade designed for exteriors of timber boats below the waterline, yes it does take longer to apply, but any good finish does, it is available in gloss or satin, to achieve that real flat natural look the finial finish is rubbed back wet with 1200 wet & dry. Yes I agree to speak up, after all you have years of experience of what does and does not work and what is and is not practical for the situation, this has also helped my business and builds trust from your clients.
@KingPostTimberWorks6 жыл бұрын
+Zane H I can't argue finishes here ,you like what you like. I must say I disagree completely about 'can't chance experimenting' That's my business making things that don't seem to be avalible or exist. My clients come to me for this reason I'm willing to use my experience to make it as best as the project/budget will allow. This kind of work increase' s confidence in ability and skill while learning alot in problem solving etc. Being not willing to take risks with projects is simply living in the comfort of previous success' s .
