Learning to turn takes time I hear, sorry I've got nothing else on the topic 😅 Keep practicing 😊

1 day????? my butt

if you want the link, here it is: www.brookeswoodbuilds.com

Need a link! why isn't your etsy store listed on your YT channel? Or am I missing something?

Yep! Got me 😂

What were the caps you used to cover the unfinished end of the composite boards? Looks great!

It’s not like low temp glue guns we all have been burned by high temp glue guns 😂 but love the strength and knottec has some incredible colors for wood happy 3rd degree burns everybody 🥵

Hmmm how about a mini shelf

That’s such a shame. I loved the idea of the build. Keep going though and don’t let one broken piece stop you. I’m sure your first mallet was no where near what you produce now and I’m sure turning will be the same.

As a person of many disasters , a lot resin related I can definitely sympathise, I found that carbide tools are better and have less chip out. The vibration mixed with the length of the piece will have contributed to the fail. I would’ve drilled a hole in the purple block and turned it round before attaching the resin and burl by turning it to fit the drilled hole and glueing in 🤷🏼‍♂️ your two part epoxy held extremely well tho 👏🏻

I really feel for you on this one, I have been trying to work out if I can afford a lathe and even more importantly if I have room for one. But no doubt most of my attempts wood end in disaster.

I would think it is the lathe bolted to the workbench. The workbench is to solid with all the other tools on it so the vibrations do not have annywhere to go. Might be better to put a few blocks around the lathe (and take the bolts out) so it does not move, but can disepate the vibrations. On the other hand the glue up of the 2 pieces held up beautiful, job wel done with that part. 👍

i have to admit you were giving me the fear turning that. why it went, could of been a number of reasons. i wouldn’t have been using the roughing gouge once it was round. yes the Australian mallee could have had a weak spot., definitely seen that before. also vibration through that lathe to the tool. i’m not an expert but i do prefer to use carbide (negative rake) when shaping resin. it’s just easier and smoother.

I have the lumberjack pt245 think the little brother of the one you have any advice on blade change on it as am pretty sure blade setting tool doesnt come in the box and i get my blades sharpened rather than buy new so any help would he greatly appreciated 👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

If your line was that long... Maker's should really come to the party and send you some help! Well done mate, great learning experience.

Amazing builds, I only wish I was that skilled as you are. Keep on making things, the weapons are especialy atractive. It is ashamed that makers central is in the UK and the US but not in Belgium. Maybe we can work up to that one day ;-). 😉

You know I will be on hand next year

Awww you were mega busy and I was chatting with so many people for you You did amazing buddy

Next year you need a camelbak…. and a buster sword 😂

The video was awesome! Definitely was a great watch and the ending is just brilliant! Nice one mate

Both my boys both made a mini-mallets with you guys... they loved it! I totally agree, either more places to build, and/or just have a better way of queueing punters would be good next time!

I said it before, and I'll say it again - you were the hardest working person at the show!

Mate it was great to see you doing so well at the show you thoroughly deserve all the good stuff coming your way. The mallets are incredible and I love the sword which has taken pride of place on the wall in my office next to a little mini mallet. Next year you should set up a selfie camera with a Bluetooth switch so people that come to see you can get an instant selfie with you :)

I was there on the Saturday, tried to get a piece of the action but you were mobbed! Never mind, I have one of your small mallets from last year.

I remember you walking past our (droidbuilders) stand on sunday and saying hello, to just get a croak back. ;) Chalk it up to experience, and also a testimony to how awesome your work is. I know this year and last year your prizes in the raffle were the big draw. Just need to find that balance. I know our stand this year was a lot busier with no lulls on the saturday like we had last year. Right, now to look at them mallets. Working on a @mattestlea dovetail box kit, and I'm sure a decent mallet will help! :D Look forward to seeing you next year.

Well it sounds like you had a great show from an exhibiter point of view, but definitely not from a visitor point 😂Why did you not prepare for this hostile take over of your mallets! There fab :P Next year we can offer you some more machinery to support your stand no problem, so you know where we are when you need us 😍Also you still ow us a mallet for our showroom😎

I didn't get a chance to come and see what you were doing because you were soo busy

Can confirm you lookied harried - but happy! Was able to grab you just long enough to buy one of your mallets and so glad i did! It is execptionally made, beautiful to hold, and has been getting ooooh's and ahhhh's ever since. Love it. Thank you so much!

I already have plans to have bottles of water stashed under your desk 🤣

Excellent Mate! You were Definitely busy and Really Did look Knackered and I LOVE the thumbnail “Knackered!”picture I took. 👍🏾🤣🤣

😁 Well done for nailing the whole weekend Paul. I did loiter around your stand for a while hoping to get to meet you. But you were proper head down and in full mallet mode 😒. Ironically I bumped in to shaun (in the shed) at your stand and got a picture with him... holding one of your fine mallets. Hope to get to see you next year. Well done mate 😁👍.

Remember if you want to get a discounted mallet please check out my website www.brookeswoodbuilds.com & check out all that I have available. If you didnt go to the show i hope you make it nest year. Once again thank you to @makerscentral & @nickzammeti for organising the show & I hope we can work out what I do next year soon.

Great, that my Breakfast ruined! 🤣

It will be a great pub decoration

Good work!

Good shoutout bud 👌

Raiding a village will add a nice dark brown patina ...

PAUL WHERE’S THE TABLE AT!!? YOU MEAN THE VIKING AXE??!?😂😂

File hand cramps are real 🤣 Epic work mate, you are really carving out a woody weapon niche. That's a top 1000 sub prize!

I really like the proportions on this, it might be my favourite of yours so far!

Love it brother I’m on a quest to win one of your weapons oh and that clamp transition cracked me up 😂 see you in a couple of weeks mate 👍🏻

I was just contemplating an axe build also! I believed this one surpasses the previous one(which is epic in its own right!) and the Purple Heart center along with the laser engraving is outstanding! The fact that the proceeds will go to charity just puts it over the top!

This was a little too much fun to make. you can see im giddy everytime I put it together. Really didnnt want to give it away but im a man of my word. You can win this on the saterday of the show.

Thank you to everyone who watch the video. this is all for a good cause so if you are going to the show make sure you have a go at the charity raffle. As soon a si reach 1K i will start doing the sword build for the giveaway just make sure you like, comment, subscribe & share so we can get there faster!

That's a great glow in the dark feature! I don't think airport security would look kindly on it, so I'll just fondle it at MC

Awesome build mate.

How many hours have you spent swinging that thing? lol

Love it Paul and can’t wait to see it in person it’ll look great mounted on my office ceiling 😂 I think you should get people to send you a pic or video of what they have done with the other pieces you made I hope they’re not just left in a cupboard somewhere 😔 Won’t be long too that 1k mate keep plugging away fella 👍🏻

Cool Sword, maybe you need to start making multiple or as least two at the same time.

Great video mate! Look forward to seeing you again at Makers!
