If you’ve seen our time-lapse video on scrapwood reindeer and what to know more about creating this compound cutting band saw sculpture, here’s Nick at regular speed. He explains the compound cutting technique in detail and imparts quite a few tips about gluing-up the scrapwood block, cutting and sanding it. He even explains how many reindeer pull Santa’s sled, just in case you’re thinking of reproducing the whole crew. It isn’t what you think! You can get the plans and full-size patterns for these reindeer from our store at workshopcompanionstore.com/pr... . And if you're interested in knowing more about the band saw, pick up a copy of Nick's book, "Using the Band Saw," from workshopcompanionstore.com/pr... . .

The 2011 holiday season was one of the most depressing and challenging I have ever had, the life I had was ending, and come the new year I would start a new life on my own. I had recently seen a picture of those deer, made from 2x4, I think, and painted white. Taking a break from clearing out the garage I decided to try to make a pair from 1x2” furring strip. It took a few attempts but I eventually cut a pair that looked alright. They were small, of course, and a bit wonky since I was free cutting without the plans, but cute just the same. I kept cutting a few more here and there, whenever I was feeling overwhelmed and started smoothing them out with round mini files. Filing the curved surfaces was especially calming, everything else around me seemed so unnerving. Pair after tiny pair, before Christmas Day arrived I had made over 150 pairs of 'em, almost 300 total. The damn dear had become a herd without me even realizing it. But they got me through Christmas and smoothed one of the roughest times of my life. Without them giving me something to do other than dwell, I am certain I would have never made it through Christmas. The following December I decided to release them into the wild, one pair at a time, wherever I'd go I'd quietly leave a pair, each wearing a little red bow for someone to find. That was one of my better holiday seasons, again thanks to a herd of tiny little dear. It's been some time since I've thought of them or seen any others. It's nice to see the herd is healthy and still growing. And it’s especially nice to say thanks to you for helping establish the herd in the first place.

@WorkshopCompanion
@WorkshopCompanion 2 жыл бұрын
@@numerousactuary6640 I would recommend any benchtop industrial drill press made before the turn of the century, preferably before 1980. You'll spend less ($150--$300) and get a better tool. I'm partial to the Cummins and the Deltas, but Craftsman and Companion are good too. Make sure you get one with a 1725 RPM motor, especially if you want to use it for drum sanding. All of these old industrial machines will have 5 to 10 speeds available via the pulley system in the headstock, but if the motor turns at 3750 RPM, you may not be able to make the machine run slow enough for sanding. When the drum turns too fast, the sawdust doesn't have enough time to clear. It becomes impacted between the grits, and the drum starts to burn the work. You want to be able to work at 300 to 500 rpm. You might also look around for an old Shopsmith. They aren't benchtop tools, but I've converted several of these to dedicated standing drilling tools. The slow speeds and tilting table make them far superior as a woodworking drill press to about 95% of the presses past or present.

My original deer come out every Christmas at my house and my mom keeps her set out all year long. She puts a seasonal ribbon around their neck. We had a house built with cedar tounge and groove siding and I glued up those boards to make my 1st batch.

I’ve made these for all of the women in my family. I adjusted the blank size from your plans to represent parents vs teens vs toddlers etc in each family. And, after some trouble getting a perfect fit for the nose blank, I decided to try pouring epoxy in the dado for the nose so I could make them black or red. Then I used different color woods for antlers to match everyone’s hair color. Everyone loved them. Thanks for the video and the plans!

We recommend using a 3/16" (4 mm) skip-took blade if you cutting the shape entirely with a band saw. If you drill the tight radii between the horns and under the chin, you can get by with a 1/4" skip-tooth.

Amazing craftsmanship, I always love how the wood pops when the oil is applied! Just one thing, is anyone else getting mild anxiety about how close Nick's hands are to the saw?

You can do these with a coping saw. It takes some patience, but I have done this with young people. Just draw the outlines on both sides of the stock so you can monitor both the entrance and exit of your cut. Clamp a scrap board (one you can saw through, if necessary) so it overhangs your table and use that as your work surface..

They look so lovely! Thanks for sharing. Unfortunately I've got no band saw.. ;( But I've got some pottery-clay, that makes it possible to build this beautiful shape in principle the same way, but I can use a stretched wire instead of a band saw and a wet sponge or my fingers instead of sandpaper... :) (I can even vary the posture before the clay dries)

Santa's workshop (if Santa also a youtuber) would look like this. Before watching this video, I always thought that the woodworker would use a chisel/knife and forming the figure bit by bit... Thanks for the video. I might not gonna make those (because the lack of tools), but it surely nice to see a master make it. Thank you, its an interesting and fun video :D

Let me start by saying they look great. As for Olive, there's a kids' book called "Olive, The Other Reindeer". You've actually heard it in the song "Rudolph" all along... "Olive (all of), the other reindeer....used to laugh and call him names..." Yes, just a play on words for the book title.
