Leftover decking timber, let's build an outdoor table with it!
Using leftover Kwila decking timber I make a couple of outdoor picnic/barbeque tables. Because it’s an outdoor table I didn’t want to invest too much time in making the joinery, so I used dowels for the joinery and invested in a doweling jig to make the joints. I’m very pleased with how they both ended up and they are a step up from the everyday outdoor furniture you get today.

The greatest gate build I’ve ever done
Просмотров 4,8 тыс.21 день назад
In this video, I finish the gate build, I did the frame in the last video, and now I am making the tongue and groove panelling. Fix these to the frame using stainless steel screws, and give everything three coats of stain to finish. Then add some big hinges, mount it onto the gate post, and add some sliding bolts and a handle. As I said this is the greatest gate I’ve ever built, but it is the o...
Big gate build, never made one, but let that not stop us
Просмотров 981Месяц назад
The epic fence construction continues, but in this episode, I’m finally working on the gate, I’ve never built a gate, let alone one of this size and it was full of challenges. In part one I take rough-sawn Macrocarpa slabs, I cut them down to 160mm width boards and then milled them down to size. Another first is rip sawing on the bandsaw 150mm planks and making big mortise and tenon joints.
Don't look like a duck, but will it sound like one?!!

I have a go at making a duck caller out of Queen Ebony, turning the barrel and the insert. Lots of new challengers, I make a brass band out of a scrap plumbing fixture, then etch some decorations in it, and try to figgure out how to get it to quack. Then make a little box for it to go into. Let me know what you think.
Whats some gate posts without a fence, so lets build a fence!
Просмотров 3133 месяца назад
The ongoing story of the need for me to replace a couple of gates that I really hate. So far we have the overcomplicated saw horses, squared gate posts, setting the posts in concrete and now I’m going to build the fence around the gate posts. The framing is 200 x 50 H3 treated timber and the palings are ship lapped. After the fence was built I put in a mowing strip as well.
Setting Big Gate Posts in concrete
Просмотров 3864 месяца назад
I’ve made a couple of 3m long 200 x 200 gate posts and now I need to get them into the ground. This video is of me pulling the old gate and fence down, pulling out the old posts, digging a couple of very big holes by hand, and setting the two gate posts into concrete. Grab a beer put your feet up and enjoy the toil!
Making 8 x 8 Gate posts
Просмотров 4735 месяцев назад
So, we made the sawhorses in the last video to get the future gate posts off the ground so we can work on them at a more comfortable height. The next thing to do is take the round posts and make them 8 x 8 square. I used a process of chainsaw and axe to square the posts up. It was a lot of hot and sweaty work, but I was very pleased with the results. The next job will be getting them in the gro...
Overcomplicated Sawhorses
Просмотров 1,7 тыс.6 месяцев назад
I need a good set of sawhorses for an upcoming project, so in this video, I make a set out of recycled pallet timber. I had to come up with different solutions for the project one being a router jig for cutting the pockets for the legs. As always with my projects I’ve made them a lot more complicated than they needed to be but was still very happy with the results.
I make an Acorn, but what's inside?!
Просмотров 2156 месяцев назад
I’m making a unique piece in this video it’s made from firewood Taraie which is a native wood of New Zealand and it’s going to be made into the shape of an Acorn. But not any old acorn, this will have a lid made from the cap of the Acorn, and inside will be cavities to hold salt and pepper. I’ll make a little spoon as well.
Picture frames Christmas gifts

Merry Christmas everyone. In this video, I make some picture frames out of old white Oak skirting boards. Using my 45° cutting sled I cut very accurate miters and then make splines for the corners using another jig for the little table saw. Then I cut and installed the glass, print, matt board, backboard, pins, tape, and hangers with string. The prints I made in the previous video when I made t...
Making a Book press and printing a wood block print
Просмотров 4457 месяцев назад
I’m making a book press for my daughter out of some spalted white Oak. It was a fun project with some cool joinery, large dovetails, and my first wedged mortise and tenon joints. With the press made I thought I’d test it out with a first attempted woodblock print. I was pleased with the results and enjoyed the project, so let me know what you think.
Making cat scratching posts
Просмотров 1748 месяцев назад
I’m saving our couch from our house full of cats wanting to scratch it up. I’m making the scratching posts out of some recycled pallet timber and some mystery wood that is very hard. The posts are designed to lock into the legs of the couch and a flat top for putting your drink on.
Making a small thin Box
Просмотров 2,5 тыс.9 месяцев назад
I’ve been asked to make a small thin box which I’ve used white Oak to make and hollowed out the inside using chisels. I used magnets to close the box but found they were quite strong and made it hard to open. Because of this, I put together a latchey thing that forces the box open breaking the magnetic seal and assisting with opening the box. Inlayed a monogram in the lid using bone as well.
Sculptural Vase Holder

    That’s some beautiful wood. I cant believe you can build decks from such an amazing looking hardwood. And that does look like its good and hard. Here in the US most decks are made from ground contact construction lumber or that nasty looking composite plastic material. I can get Kwila here, but I’d have to take out a second and maybe a third mortgage to afford it. Pricey stuff. Another great video. Thanks.

    • @WTCreations
      @WTCreations 21 час назад

      Thanks for the feedback Jurb, we have two main wood options here in NZ Pinus Radiata, which is a soft wood but cheaper, and the Kwila. Kwila is the more expensive, but a lot longer lasting and durable. It does make nice furniture but it is bloody heavy!

      My first time using the Sikkens, I did a bit of research and a few commercial gate builders were using it and that's why I thought I'd give it a go. I put 3 coats of the Sikkens on the gate, it's recommended you recoat every two to three years. I'm happy with the product so far, looks good and covered well now we just see how it lasts. Thanks for the feedback.

      Thanks for the feedback jtreg, when I first started woodworking I didn't have a bandsaw or chopsaw and made everything with just hand tools. I've over time gained tools that help speed up the process of breaking the timber down and taking the donkey work out of the woodworking. I only get a couple of days a week in the shop and these tools help process the timber faster giving me more time to create as well. As you would have seen in the video there is still a lot of handtool work done.
