The Traveling Crane Woodcrafts and More
США
Добавлен 3 фев 2020
Greetings from the Holy City! My name is Michelle & welcome to my channel!
A little about my art background. I started making origami cranes in pre-school, while my family was Stationed at the Naval Air station in Sigonella Sicily. Fast forward through the years & I master more elaborate origami techniques & fiddles around with different types of paper crafts. Always wanting to know more, I pushed my creativity to other forms of art. Painting, drawing, sculpting, paper flowers, bracelets, wood craft, building & much much more.
I created this channel to help out a friend who wanted to know how to build a planter box. So my first video was private, but ended up being published due to more of my friends wanting to learn. I am NOT a professional wood worker or anything. This is for fun & hopefully can help out future DIY'ers out there! So stay tuned for more stuff.

Hey Everyone!
Sorry for the long gaps between video releases, but that's expected when you have a baby. I'm trying to do better, and I have a bunch of video ideas in mind. Lots of stuff for baby and for the home. So, I hope you continue to follow along!
This project took me a while to make, even though it was a simple build, and I didn't have to create the cricut stencil. I have built this project before, but on a much smaller scale. This was when I first started woodworking. I still have it, and when I built it, I said to myself that this would go in my sons room. Well, after being in the garage for years, humidity, temp changes, and moving. It did some damage to the sign, and I was not a...

Simple Keepsake Box #cricut
Просмотров 722 месяца назад
Hey Everyone! Here is a short video of a simple keepsake box I made for my son. I don't go into detail on how I made this box, as it is as simple as putting wood together to create a box, give it a lid and a bottom, then BAM, you have a box. But with that said, if you are new to building and would like to make this, please feel free to ask any questions. As always, Happy building and I will see...

Hello my BEA-utiful people!! I'm back and I have a new shop assistant! For those that don't know, I took about a year off when I found out I was pregnant.

So, for my first video back, I thought it would be fitting to build something for my son's nursery. So sit back and...

DIY Quickies: Storage Shelf w/ Hooks
Ive been wanting to do this, a little hesitant because Im afraid when we have a big fire going it will smell like paint
I can tell you that it doesn't smell. But with that said, I have a gas fireplace. But this stuff is also used for grills and other high heat things, so once it gets to temp, it should be cured where there is no smell. I do hope you try it. If you do, please update me 🙂
love this one❤❤
❤❤LOVE THIS ❤️ ❤
Slot dimensions are no good .
How true, I have almost mastered the first two ❤ now onto the ever-elusive worstesure? wursteshire sauce. Wordteshire? Oh heck, I will never be able to pronounce this word!!!! It's kind of like the simple word Wash, which always comes out as Worsh when I pronounce it 😂😅😊
LOL!! I love this!
Very interesting project good job and thanks for sharing enjoyed it Keep building Blessings to you and your family
Awesomeeee !!!!!!!
Lovely
Nice job. I have tried different plans for Garden Obelisk but way to difficult. This I can do. Thanks.
This is what I do right now. I make keepsake boxes out of fallen tree limbs. FREE WOOD! But, the milling takes forever.
That's awesome!! I'd love to mill my own wood. The selection we have here in Charleston is pitiful.
I do this all the time. I measure wrong for the roof all the time.
I do it so much, I'm getting good at it LOL! I'm a pro at getting the wrong measurements
I built a log cabin birdhouse the other day out of cedar fence pickets. Had a tenant in about an hour.
That's awesome!! My barn and lop sided house had guests living in them for the past 2 years. Blue birds and a Carolina wren. I wanted to build a log cabin. Maybe...one day.
@@TheTravelingCraneWoodcraftMore I saw the video on here from Specific Love Creations. It was surprisingly easy. The cutting took a while but assembly was so fast.
This is awesome! You are both cute and talented!
Blushing 😊 thanks!!
Good job and project thx for sharing Don’t forget the pictures God Bless
It should read 2" by 10" by 8'
Typos are wonderful!!
This came out great! I’ve been wanting to do something different to my fireplace as well! It’s definitely that 90s vibe. I have black accent walls in my home and have painted my window trim black, it looks amazing! I know this will seal the deal! ❤❤❤❤❤
difficulty 10/10 🙃, no?
That is so dope. Great work. I can't wait to make one for my friend.
Hi michelle!. Good job on your video. Im a tv producer out of Nashville. When you are looking at the camera. Look at the lens NOT on the side monitor. When you look at the lens you connect with the audience.
Thanks! I use my cell phone to record all my videos, so I'm usually looking at the lens that is in the upper corner of my phone. LOL! So I try my best 🙂 if I had a better camera system, it would totally look more professional.
Good job and project thx for sharing enjoyed it Sam is adorable Be safe stay well and God Bless
Thank you!
Kudos to you for sharing your project. I have a few ideas I would have handled in another way. 1-unless the wall is very irregular, not a great idea to glue the baseboard to it. 2-before putting battens up, I would decide where that top piece you made was going to go, level it and nail it to the wall, insuring the nails were hitting the studs. 3-then in case the floor wasn’t level, I would measure each place where the battens were going to be sure all of them were the correct length. (Yes, if the baseboard and top board are perfectly parallel, the lengths of the battens will be exactly the same. But that stuff rarely comes out that way in most cases. Last comment to clarify the glue thing-anything that is running horizontally can be nailed into structure (studs) and does not need glue. Not gluing makes it simpler if the baseboard ever needed to be pulled, like maybe by the electrician? However, the battens will not likely be located on top of a stud, so those I agree need to be glued.
Thanks for the input! Everyone has their own way of doing things. For me, this was the easiest. I'm not too worried about using the glue, and if I have to remove it, that's just a road I will cross later. I think it turned out pretty well. I love it, and it still looks good after all this time. If I do this again, I'll take your advice. Especially for the upstairs bathroom I need to do. That wall is jacked, and I definitely need to make sure I secure them to the studs. Thanks again for the advice, and thanks for watching!!
I think I am in love, just saying!!!
With limited tools, this is very impressive, great job! Love it… keep videos coming.
Looks very nice. No issues with wood movement/cracking for the breadboard ends? I know alot of "experts" dislike pocket hole joinery especially for breadboard ends. It makes it so much easier though.
Thank you! And, thank you for watching! At first, I didn't notice any movement on the ends, but when we got ready for the next event in there I noticed shrinking. But from the middle. So now the end boards are a tab bit longer than the center. I don't like it, but no way of fixing it. So I'm learning to "love" it. I keep telling myself, it's my first table and it gives it character LOL!
Can someone explain in simple terms what this means please?
What do you need explained?
@@TheTravelingCraneWoodcraftMore wood movement/cracking for breadboard ends in relationship to pocket hole joinery...what does this mean? I'm going to try and build a table, beginner here.
Oh okay., happy to help. Because of the humidity in my house, the wood expanded and contacted through the years and has made the inner boards smaller than when I started, which made the end boards seem longer. I'm not sure how to prevent that from happening, unfortunately. I guess the only thing I can say is to make sure the wood you use is fully cured, no moisture in the wood. You probably can find something on YT about wood warping after awhile, that should help. I hope that helped a little. I'm not the best at explaining and everything I do is pretty much trial and error LOL! I hope your table turns out awesome! Thank you for watching!! Happy building!!
Great video just was what I was looking for to modernize my ugly brass looking 80’s front. Thanks
Thx for sharing
Thx for sharing
where can you purchase the bread box
Hey!! Thanks for watching and the comment! If you have an IKEA near you, you can see if they have them there. I got mine from Amazon. If you can find a bread box that opens on a hing and not slide like mine, it will make life much easier.
Nice work.
How stinking cute is that?? ❤
Cute idea. I do something similar. I also add some magnesium shavings… This make sure it catches and burned very hot. I also mixing some road flare dust, but that’s optional… But it absolutely will not go out in the rain or wind
Thank you, you made it look simple!:)
Great idea. I was looking for ideas for over my work bench and will be doing something similar.
Just saw this video, thank you for the clear and simple assembly. I worked for the manufacturer and on this product as well. Sorry it took me a few years to find this (and I am so glad I added the unfolding instructions to the inside top panel)
where could i buy just the support bbase?
Nice Job!
what size wooden bead
Hi there! I want to say they were 8mm or 10mm beads. The size you would use if you were making a bracelet. But any size you want to use would be fine. The wooden beads, I got from Amazon, but may have them at a craft store.
Great video and thanks for sharing all the dimensions if they're actually correct because I actually think your board might be 12 inches wide not 10" and obviously 8 feet long not 8 inches long but nonetheless cool video!
Good job!
New to your channel. Wow that looks great
Bravissima! 👏
Awesome job!!!!❤
Absolutely beautiful!
This is what I am wanting and looking for..I am new to this and have never done woodburing. Ty for the review...now off to find it and purchase.
I love hearing this! For me, this was an honest review. There are a ton of wood burning tools out there. it just depends on what you want to spend. For the time, Walnut Hollow was a good choice. You can hold the burner like a pen, and that was exactly what I was looking for. It's better on the wood you can get at the craft store, but not on birch, walnut..basically hardwoods, which is what I was really wanting to use this for. So I alternate between the old burner and new. Hope this works for you! Thank you again for watching and your comment. Happy crafting!!
@@TheTravelingCraneWoodcraftMore seems I want the same as you. I just found at my Hobby Lobby for only $64.99 so looks like i will go after it instead of ordering. Giggling, would love to see you do more. Life does get busy for young folk 😁
If you can get a coupon, that would make it even better! I will definitely get back into wood burning after my son arrives, that is! Hopefully, life won't be too busy, and he can enjoy wood working with me!
@@TheTravelingCraneWoodcraftMore where in the world would you get a coupon? Then I look forward to learning from you.
You can probably find one at hobbylobby.com or I you have a Michael's near you, they always have coupons on their website for 25% or more off regular priced items. I think that's where I got mine.
good job. thanks
Just found this tutorial and it's fantastic! Thank you!!! You described everything very well. Super cute too!!
Why thank you so much! I'm happy you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching!
You are so good at explaining the process of crafting. I'd love to see more!@@TheTravelingCraneWoodcraftMore
I will definitely be doing more. Took a break this year to get our home ready for our son, who will be born in February! So stay tuned!
Nice build with hand tools....I almost turned the volume down and me being a Deadhead turned it up. Who is that playing Don't look back? Anyways very enjoyable
Thanks for watching! I love working with hand tools 🙂 as for the music, this was an early video, so I think I did all the edits from my phone and used whatever music it had LOL!
Lindossssss
I don’t understand why people paint over brass and over red brick. The fireplace looks good either way however, the black looks like the base model surround and the brass looks like the upgraded high end fireplace surround. I like shinny things I guess.
Yeah, everyone has their preferences 🙂 for me, I felt the brass looked dated and since we purchased my husband's childhood home, we wanted to change it up and make it our own. I was going to whitewash the brick, but I'm glad I didn't. A little change was good. Thanks for the comment and for watching!
Looks great, This will save me 200. Bucks lol❤️
Loved this. I will try to copy it. Thank you!
