Miniaturist Journal 38. In this video I am taking you through the basic rules for table saw safety and show you how to change the saw blade. Something unexpected makes me change my plans. And I'm showing you the rough state my second canal house is still in and explain a little bit about how I'm building it.

Ha. In my concern for your well being, I forgot about the very large time gap between videoing and video release. Your creative input and knowledge is a gift. Thank you.

@MakeMiniatures Жыл бұрын

That is true! Usually, because of editing, uploading, etc., there is a gap of at least a few days. The hand is good as new now. Thank you!

Hi Josje, you gave some very sound advice for safety while using machinery. A friend recently experienced an incident where her dog startled her and a bottle of Crazy Glue was knocked on to her lap resulting in a serious chemical burn to her leg. These thing happen so quickly. I am always surprised when Miniaturists finish a project on a deadline as I enjoy the thought that my Swedish House for example will take another -who knows how long - to be finished. The French House was 1991 to 2015 with a lot of real life happening in between of course. The room box style of build is a wonderful idea for beginners who are uncertain what direction their new hobby (obsession) may take them. Always enjoy your videos, thank you. Regards Janine in BC Canada where our summer is presently extending into Fall

Hi Janine, yes these things always happen in a split second. It's lovely to have pets around but they can be unpredictable. I sometimes have deadlines when working on room boxes, but not the ones I make for myself. As for my room box house build, I can hardly call myself a beginner but I still like this way of working. Thank you, Janine! Summer is over here. The past two days were nice, but it has started raining again. Tomorrow will be a very wet day I think.

Actually turning the blade with the teeth to the back, makes it possibly to cut Perspex and other plastics. Having the teeth the right way round will shatter some plastics. Love the table saw though, I have a Proxxon FET table saw and replacing the blade is definitely more fiddly! Love you videos! Idske

@MakeMiniatures Жыл бұрын

I didn't know that Idske, thank you for the tip! Yes, replacing the blade on the Proxxon is more fiddly. I do like having both machines. I use the Proxxon with a heavier saw blade for thicker material. Thanks Idske!

Dit huis wordt ook weer prachtig. En dat met die gang heb ik toen gelezen en is een geweldig idee. Het stoort mij ook dat in mijn huis die gangen niet kloppen en dat de haarden eigenlijk tegen de muur horen te staan wat nu de open kant van het poppenhuis is. Ik had bedacht om een optische gang achter het poppenhuis te plaatsen en dat er alleen zicht is op een stukje van die hal en een stukje trap naar boven. Zo kan ik de haarden toch recht tegenover de opening van het huis zetten. De haarden komen dan wel tussen deuren die dan naar die zogenaamde hal leiden, maar een betere oplossing kon ik niet bedenken. En waar de extra houten box zit ( zoals jij hebt gedaan met de badkamer achter die slaapkamer van je 1e huis) wil ik dan ook een extra geveltje naast zetten om die ruimte weg te werken. Ik hoop dat je een beeld krijgt want het is moeilijk uit te leggen zo en sorry voor het jatwerk 😏 van het extra geveltje 😉Ook prachtig dat je die trap en een achterhuis hebt. Ga zo door met je mooie huizen 👏👏👏

@MakeMiniatures Жыл бұрын

Dank je wel Sandy! Ja het is lastig met die gangen en de locatie van de haarden. De gang achter de kamers is wel heel leuk want dan kan je mooi met doorzichtjes en licht spelen. Je kunt ook de haarden tegen de zijwanden zetten. Dat grote zelfbouw grachtenpand van PM (?) destijds heeft ook de gang aan een kant maar is aan beide kanten open. Staan die haarden niet tegen de zijwanden? Ik kan het me niet voor de geest halen. Wel een heel mooi poppenhuis. Wat ik daar heel leuk aan vind is dat het 'klopt'. Wat het jatwerk betreft, geen probleem! Dit is toegestaan en volledig legaal 😉

@Sandy--hq5ws Жыл бұрын

@@MakeMiniatures Ik weet precies welk huis je bedoelt en inderdaad het klopt..bijna. De haarden kijk je volgens mij tegenaan en aan weerskanten zijn er deuren naar de gang erachter. De kant waar wij inkijken zeg maar is officieel de kant van de haard. Het kan zijn dat op de hogere verdiepingen de haarden wel aan de zijkant stonden. Zo ga ik het dus ook ong doen alleen die gangen zie je dan niet. Maar ja, het blijven poppenhuizen en misschien leggen we de lat ook wel heel hoog 😉

@MakeMiniatures Жыл бұрын

@@Sandy--hq5ws Misschien wel ja 😅 Ik heb nog eens naar een foto van dat huis gekeken en kan idd geen haarden zien. Maar ik zie ook maar een kant van het huis. Die gang neemt wel heel veel ruimte in dus de kamers erachter zijn klein. Kan me voorstellen dat je op de bovenverdieping geen gang erachter maakt.

Beautiful Josje! I hope your hand heals quickly and you have a wonderful time in Arnhem. Would love to know more about your pocket doors - especially the one you made previously with the scalloped arch trim. I eagerly await your Friday uploads to KZfaq 💐

I hope your hand recovers quickly! Thank you for the tutorial on the table saw. I’m thinking of asking for one for Christmas, so this was useful knowledge to have. Also, thank you for showing us your larger project. Oftentimes, we don’t get to see the larger plan and it’s useful to know when imagining where the rooms fit into your larger structure. Have fun at the show!

The show was fun. I will show you a short impression of it next Friday. Yes, I realized I have rarely shown all of the rooms together. And while it all makes sense to me, it may not be clear to you as a viewer. Thank you, Dana!

Do you use a table sled with your saw? Ive never used one but hope to get one. curious how they work with cutting miniature. Your dollhouse is stunning. I absolutely love seeing your plans and processes. How you build. Very valuable knowledge. I learn so much from you. You really should publish a book. I too am very interested in that sliding door and how you did that.

@MakeMiniatures Жыл бұрын

Yes, I do! And actually, that's how I hurt my hand as the table sled was stuck, I pushed against it, came loose and it hit my other hand...hard...🙄 But generally, table sleds are very safe and useful. I will put that (and the sliding doors) on my list to show how it works, it's not difficult. Oh, I don't know about a book...But thank you for the compliment! I'm glad the videos are helpful to you.

I’m sorry to hear about your injury! In Canada, according to my partner, whom is a physiotherapist, your tape job looks like it is impeding the blood flow to your hand. Perhaps… a tensor wrap or bandage would be better…as it would allow for better blood flow. Ice is your friend. As is elevation. You are a trooper. Perhaps doesn’t translate well in Dutch. Colloquialisms aside; you are amazing and extremely appreciated. Take care.

Thank you Gailene! But don't worry, the taping was done by a highly experienced professional who also monitored me. I appreciate the concern though!

I am so sorry you hurt your hand! It appears that changing the blade on the Brynes is a bit easier than on the Proxxon as on the latter you have to line up the blade to the washer type thing which isn't always apparent. Your dollshouse is stunning! Thank you for taking us along on your journey.

My hand is fine now Beth, thank you. Yes, it is easier on the Byrnes than on the Proxxon. Thank you for the compliment Beth!

It certainly makes sense when building such a large and complicated house to work on one room at a time. I am intrigued on how you manage the transitions from one room to the next, especially when they are connected with a door. Is the door between the blue salon and the yellow salon a pocket door between the walls? What fun to decorate and build at the same time! Thank you for the ‘little peek’ into your build so far. Enjoy your visit to Arnhem.

@MakeMiniatures Жыл бұрын

Hi Coby, sorry I am a little bit late answering...It is easier to work on the rooms this way, but it does take some planning for those transitions. Yes, the doors between the yellow and blue salon are pocket doors. So, those two rooms are easy to connect, as the doors are attached to the blue room's walls and the yellow room just pushes up against it. Thanks! I had fun in Arnhem yesterday.

Question. I understand you use two table saws and keep a finer blade in Byrnes. Does Bryans cut deeper cuts with a more course blade like proxxon? Thank you.

@MakeMiniatures 11 ай бұрын

Sorry my answer is so late, I was away for a while. Yes, you can put a different blade in the Byrnes table saw, and raise and lower the blade. I keep the Proxxon with the courser blade because the Proxxon is just a little less precise than the Byrnes. But still good.
