Handmade Wood Glasses -
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
Starting with a hunk of butternut wood, I carved a set of handmade frames for a pair of custom reading glasses.
This project is just one of many in a collaboration with other makers as part of the Butternut Challenge. Be sure to watch the others here: tinyurl.com/butternutchallenge.

The rotating podium with drill at the end 👍👍
That hinge 👌🏾😘
The tight grain tells me that’s old-growth butternut, an excellent hardwood closely related to black walnut. Very slow growing, logging and butternut canker wiped-out the the trees from the era that chunk came from, iirc. I was given an old 1936 upright piano some 20 years ago. In the process of tearing it down and removing veneer (to restore), I found that the entire frame-including the soundboard-was entirely old-growth butternut. Super rare. You’re lucky to have that. And nice job, as usual.
When those lenses both _snapped_ into place, I was literally agape! Congratulations for being the first person ever to give me cause to use that word in a sentence!!!
You have the hands of a surgeon. Every time I used a dremel, it looks like I was doing so while getting eletroshock therapy.

I know, right?!
Excellent work, coming from an optometrist here! I continue to be amazed at the level of ingenuity and imagination displayed on KZread!
Such a fine man and a cool project.
amazingly meticulous and creative, in use of tools and materials. and you butternut continue with punz
So many great techniques for all the detail work. It's a super cool idea and you did a fantastic job!
Those look awesome and comfortable. I don't wear mine as much as I should, but mine are plastic and uncomfortable to wear as they were warped in my truck during summer.
Good looking piece of wood.
I become a bigger fan with each vid Wesley. Love the subjects, the filming and editing. Gives me something to look forward to watching!
Wow.. I'm impressed.. Build that frames are really the challenge.. So tiny and easy to break from a minimal mistake.. They turned out great, kudos!
Absolutely brilliant.
I learn so many tips and tricks watching your videos. Thank you!
Love the diy turntable
Wow I want a pair!!!
Very impressive Wesley! Thanks for sharing
They turned out really well!!
Great job! I showed my kid, and he said, oh you can make a pair for me. I have some butternut left! Bonus challenge. Love the solution you came up with for the hinges.
These look sweet! Thanks for sharing!
Simply awesome, Great job.
They look great!
What a wonderful piece of art! Congratulation Sir! 🎩
I'm totally going to try this for a pair of sunglasses! Not in butternut though I'll use some black walnut from the tree in my yard!
Brilliant !
Loved these, but I think the lazy suzan at the end was the best. LOL.
Those turned out wonderfully! Love your videos
Beautiful work.
Looks very good. Well done
great idea and excellent execution!
Great job !
Your expressions are animated already, but the glasses somehow take it to full cartoon! In a good way!
Nicely done.
Awesome 👌 Brilliant 👌 Unique
So superb to discover you. Always wanted to make my own spectacle frame. Now I have no excuses! Damn!
Awesome!
Really nice!
I love your work and mental state :)
I have never thought about just shipping a a log. Wouldn't need a box because it is it's own box. LMFAO!
Impressive work. That's the kind of project I would consider, but would never try. I like it.
I'd recognize a Shop Smith band saw guard anywhere. Nice job.
Absolutely amazing dude...
Best page on the net
Bravo Wesley! Those turned out so good!! Love that you burnt in the grain, and that little pop of aluminum is awesome.
I like the glasses! Thanks!
So you can see through aaaand point at people with them. You just need them to hold hair back and they complete the trilogy of successful spectacles
Great video, love your shots. So creative making glasses, they are so expensive nowadays. Mahalo for sharing! : )
Pretty cool, I wish I would buy a pair.
You ButterNut! Nice work Wesley.
Very neat.
looks amazing apart from the bridge which looks a bit thick but that's personal preference! nice job!
Imperfectly perfect 👌
Fabulous glasses!! And I am so going to make a jig like that for my rotary tool! That is genius! And the business card sanding spacer? So good!
Perfection at its highest position 👌👍😊
That jig is awesome gonna make one for my foredom. This will help me so much cleaning up my jewelry. Thanks a lot! Nice glasses btw 🤓
Those are the coolest glasses I think I have ever seen 😉
l love this kind of work thanks for sharing
Looks Great 🤙🏻
very impressive, wesley
Amazing
Super cool
❤ just brilliant Sir... Love from India ❤
My first impression was, "He mailed himself a block of wood". Or was it just for you know hilarious content. But, that was pretty awesome. BTW.... Great craftsmanship love it.
The end presentation was too cool...
clever, clever.
Great job! You also aced your challenge.
Great job for a first go.
Muito Bom ! A Natureza agradece o reaproveitamento.
Nice lookin' pair of specs.
Very clever 😀
Very nice job 👍🏻
Very good...! 👍
Ha! When I saw the debut on Instagram I thought you had totally CNC'd those glasses. Well done for going all old school. Regards, Mark Presling - Queensland, Australia
Given the prices for frames these days, you may be on to something! Imagine going to LensCrafters et al and getting (just paying for) the lenses.

Haha right?!
Well you certainly made a spectacle out of that, you could see yourself winning lol
Great work. Thanks for sharing ! What was the spray you used to treat the wood in the end?
“Oh Fred, your new glasses look so good!” “Thanks, Wilma!”
3:30 OMG I could make one of those! And now I really want to. Just need a footswitch for the Dremel…
Great 👍
Great products! It’s value to enshrine !
...and here I was expecting you to modify the cellulose to make optically transparent butternut lenses! In any case, really nice work. I always look forward to your videos.
A fabulous vidéo
