I’m sure someone else has noted this but it dawned on me that if I chamfered each of the long edges before making the two serpentine cuts, there would automatically be a hollow channel in the middle once assembled. Perfect for running wire through when making lamps. No need to drill.

I would suggest attaching them to a skirt and then attaching the skirt to the table. Check out our video - bandsaw magic melting shelves. That might give you a good idea.

2 minutes in and I was hooked. Love your style and content, a perfect KZread combination. I am wondering about bandsaw speed settings for the cuts. Does it depend on wood type, blade width or both?

@WorkshopCompanion

2 жыл бұрын

It depends mostly on blade grind and stock thickness. I use a 1/4" (6 mm) skip-tooth blade for most cuts in stock over 1" (25 mm) thick.
