Nice job! Couple of tips. If you're cutting multiple pieces that are the same length, clamp a stop block to your fence the distance from the blade that you wish the piece to be. Then cut as many as you want by running the board up to the block. Exact same length each time quickly. But most important, make you a push stick for pushing the work thru the saw blade. Saves the fingers lol! Good job tho!!

Have you tried turning the feet by 90° so that you have the cut faces on the ends and the factory planed faces on the bottom? That way it doesn't matter if you're 1mm or 1/16th out with your cutting as the difference will be on the vertical plane. It would also reduce the possibility of the brads splitting the feet and have the consistency of having end grain showing on the ends of the project.

Well done young man, you will have a great future. Just a suggestion, when you have spread your wood glue and then apply the foot it will help if you press down on the foot and rub it left and right (called rub jointing) you will find that the joint will become very tight and strong you will have removed all of the air and the joint will be twice as strong instantly (if you clamp down hard on most PVA glues and you squeeze out too much of the glue it can weaken a joint) however with a small job like this strength is not an issue. P.S as others have said Safety/Safety I got to 75 and have only lost the tips of a finger and a thumb many years ago, Love my workshop, good luck.

Thanks for the video. A couple of pointers about the sanding. You could save time and make it much easier if you sanded the complete board before cutting and assembly. Also, one should never tilt an orbital sander. The sander should always stay flat to the surface to prevent any gauging.

Thanks for tuning in! Yes, sanding would be better and faster if done before cutting and assembly!

It does take more time sanding after because of all the little pieces, so thank you for that good advice! And thank you so much for commenting!

@@Anonymous-is2qb good question. I have to be very creative at times. Honestly I've used the BBQ area to do some cuts but like you said afraid of it being too loud. thats using my circular saw. So what I do now to make my quick simple cuts I go into the bathroom lol. Set up in there and cut away. Definitely not ideal but it works. I just need to clean up afterwards. Now with my new addition of a miter saw, I've been going to a nearby park and setting up my truck tailgate as a work bench and doing my cuts there. Downside is I have to have my converter and extension cords to be able to plug in. its a struggle for sure but I try to plan ahead on what cuts I need so I can do them all together. Now if you have a spare room, maybe getting some of those sound damping squares for your wall. It might help. Depends on the layout of your place. Hope this helps

When I was your age, I was in wood shop at school. I wanted to make a project, but the only wood I had was some old cedar posts. I stripped the bark off the posts and cut the ends off of them on a band saw, to make them flat. I tried to turn them on the laith, but the wood was too soft. I cut another piece off about 4 inches thick and thought about how the cedar smelled. Eventually I drilled holes in the piece a little bigger than a pencil. Making a pencil holder. Lacquered it and gave it to my dad. He took it to his office and his friends saw it and offered to buy one. My dad told me, and I made as many as I could and sold them for $2.00 a piece. That was back in the early 70's. I did not patent the idea. I have seen the same design sold at convenience stores and flea markets. I ended up making about $250.00 before I ran out of cedar posts. Good luck to you.

How much are you selling them for? Also staging the product is one of the most important factors for selling! Every few days, copy what your description says in the listing and delete the listing and remake it by pasting the old description on the new listing. (That way you don't have to write it over and over!) This way your listing always stays at the top of Marketplace, and people will see yours first! Don't give up, woodworking sales fluctuate by times and states! Hope that helps!

Young man great job, trying to teach yourself and make money, but I do want to give you a piece of advice. I have been a master carpenter cabinet maker, woodworker for 42 years when you're doing cross cuts on a table saw cutting against the grain you should alwayswork with a sled or with a guard you should never be cutting against the fence. There's a good chance it could pinch and kick back on you and you can get majorly hurt which we don't want that great job.

You could save yourself some time & energy by cutting your feet first, then chamfering the remaining board in one piece. The ends can be chamfered on your compound radial saw, or, as others have said, using the crosscut/mitre guide on your table saw. For max efficiency, sand the final product only once; otherwise you're repeating a process needlessly. Good work, good luck, and keep swimming upstream!

Makes an extra $5 for you after the initial effort of creating the stencil, maybe only an extra 5 minutes of work. You could also run a small, shallow, decorative dado around the perimeter instead of or even in addition to the edge bevel. Overall, well done, Little Brother.

Just a tip to save time, Don't sand until the product is completely assembled. (invest in a detail sander) Or, sand the entire board before cutting, and then just touch up the cuts after. Sanding each individual piece after cutting is less efficient, takes more time, ...and time cuts into profit. nice little gig though, congrats.

Soap stand, countertop riser, scum-ring preventer, basin trivet, sink shelf...just off the top of my head. You might consider those little round plastic feet with a nail in the center, to prevent (or at least slow) the inevitable rot.

Hmmm... Could I ask how much you are trying to sell them for? Did you stage them good for the pictures? Are you using Facebook market place or something else? The other thing I can think of is, sales usually vary from place to place and from time to time. One state may not be looking for the same things people are looking for where I live. But, don't give up, just keep reposting every chance you get! Thank you for commenting, hope that helps!

Price dropping just barstardises the whole woodworking industry. It undervalues and reinforces your skill level, product quality (or lack of) Great Craftsman Woodworkers sell their products by illustrating their quality construction methods, features and product value, which far outweighs customers perspective towards a cheaper knock-offs in price. Price dropping is commonly used by younger, amateur and unskilled homie woodies that perspective themselves as making cheap product with no skills. Which do you wanna be recognized for? Buyers base price at number 7/8 out of 10... #1 being of little value reflected in the price. Failing to manufacturer quality products degrades the whole woodworking industry.
