    Well now, this is a bit of a coincidence because I got struck with a bout of insomnia a couple of weeks ago when at 2:30am I suddenly thought that if I were to move this big metal shelving unit I have I’d be able to re-do one wall of my shop as a mitre saw station so guess what my current project is as well? …Snap. Have a feeling it’s going to end up being an insanely long video, haha.

    @@thornedesignco I wouldn’t bet on it, reckon it could take me a few months in total, four stages of actual building / making plus a lot of clearing out and moving stuff in between. Like you I suspect I’ll need to ditch a lot of scrap wood that’s just a bit too small to really hold onto. Looking forward to seeing yours too.

    Exciting times mate. Your Ideas seem solid. Bench / mitre station on one side and then things mounted on casters. That was one of the best upgrades I made. Some nice new toys, looks like it’s all coming together! Can’t wait to see how it looks at the end.

  • @thornedesignco
    @thornedesignco16 күн бұрын

    In my latest video you can see the absolute chaos this machine causes with dust/chips… I think it needs a custom 3D printed collection chute for the top, or I could crudely put together something out of wood. I need to get a bigger collection system as I don’t think the shop vac could cope haha! Let me know if you find a solution at all as I would be keen to copy!

    Im planning on adding french cleats to my concrete brick wall. And was about to use firring strips with insulation, then a piece of plywood, then the cleats.

    Actually change of plans. Regular 2x4s laid flat every 16 imches, fastened to the concrete blocks, with 1 1/2 foam insulation to fill the gaps. Might only used treated wood as a base board slightly off the ground since my brick is dry and above ground.

    Best not to pass your fingers over the cutter. If there is a fault in the wood it could break and rout your fingers. I know because decades ago I trimmed one of my fingers, fortunately by very little. Great video. I’m going to try it. Off to the iron ware shop.
