+Michael McDermott You're very welcome. Glad that you enjoyed the show.

+kris stankievech That "stencil" is call an INCRA T-rule and you can get them directly from INCRA, or many woodworking stores carry them. They are available in imperial and metric measurements and are absolutely awesome. I use mine for everything in the shop. www.incra.com/measuring_marking-trules.html They are also available at Lee Valley Tools. www.incra.com/measuring_marking-trules.html Thanks for tuning in.

+B_K_Builds Consider yourself as getting the green light. With a smaller blade (possibly 1/8") you can easily cut these on a band saw. Heck, you could cut them by hand with a coping saw. You could sand the profiles down with a disc sander. There are a million ways to accomplish one project. Go for it. If you have any questions at all, feel free to ask. I'd be more than happy to help you out.

+kennyearrings1 lol green light on the band saw from my wife. She bought it for me for Christmas and says I can't use it till then 😞 thanks for the info and video!

I tried to help you out. ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha. Want me to explain to your wife that you absolutely NEED a band saw? LOL

Or to let you use it early.

I'm not from Britain....I'm from Canada but thank you for tuning in and for the kind words.

There have been many people ask this question in the past and for good reason. Those particular devices are fantastic. They are made by INCRA and are call the INCRA T-rule. You can find them on INCRA's site or there are many woodworking stores (including Lee Valley) that sell them. Here is the link to the INCRA site. www.incra.com/measuring_marking-trules.html

+joseph poncik This question seems to be one of the more popular ones on my show. The layout lines are drawn with an INCRA T-rule. They are available from most major woodworking stores. Lee Valley Tools carries them in Imperial measurements only, but if you require metric, those are available directly from INCRA's website. www.leevalley.com/en/wood/page.aspx?p=58877&cat=1,43513,58883,58877 www.incra.com/measuring_marking-trules.html

+Barry Roberts Funny that you should mention about it being in time for Christmas. I wasn't going to post this show this week and my wife suggested that I post it to give people time to make them for Christmas. That way, they can have them on the table while they eat their Christmas dinner.............mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm, Christmas dinner. The ones shown in the video are unfinished, but they have since been coated with some danish oil and it really brings out the grain in the maple and really darkens the walnut. They look great. Any finish would be fine, as they will never be in contact with the flame and the top surface will never get hot enough to ignite. As for Thanksgiving..........us Canadians have our Thanksgiving in October. It was the American Thanksgiving on Thursday. I guess I will have to wait until December to have some of that delicious Christmas turkey dinner..............mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm, Christmas turkey dinner.

+kennyearrings1 I forgot Canadians celebrate in October, sorry. Hope you had a good day when you had yours. Looks like you enjoy the Christmas dinner as well mmmmmmmmm Turkey mmmmmm, here we go again ha haGood Video again Kenny, take care my friend. Barry.

You take care as well sir. Thanks for the laugh.

You don't need expensive tools to make these candle holders. A drill and a fret or coping saw would work perfectly. Even just a handsaw to cut the initial pieces. Fancy tools don't make the project, the woodworker makes the project and the tools just assist him. Give it a try. Thanks for tuning in to the show.

The name of the bit is called a Forstner bit Julie and they are used to drill flat bottomed, stopped holes like I drilled for these candle holders. The best way to gauge your depth, is to place a mark on the edge of your stock where you want the bottom of the hole to be. Then, lower your bit to that mark and set the depth stop of your drill press to stop the bit at the line. If you are drilling by hand, using a hand held drill, you can align the bottom of the bit with the mark and then place masking tape to the bit, in line with the surface of the wood. When the tape gets to the wood's surface, your hole is deep enough. I hope this helps. Thanks for tuning in to the show.

@@acutabove_woodworkings wow thank you so much. I have a drill press, but it was given to me. I’ve used it several times, but didn’t know you could set a depth stop. I will need to KZfaq it Thank you so much for your help

@@juliedeane9541 If your drill press doesn't have a depth stop, I produced a show a while back on how to make your own. It's an older (and kind of goofy) show but you can easily search my channel's content to find it. I hope this helps.
