  • My wife has wanted a raised garden bed for a long time, so my daughter and I built her one for Mother's Day. It's a simple project that used left over cedar decking boards we got for free from our neighborhood. We'll show how we made a simple and functional raised garden bed out of 5/4 deck boards and 1x10 cedar.
    Tools and materials used:
    5/4 cedar deck boards
    1x10 cedar boards
    Dewalt Sliding Compound Miter Saw
    Vintage Craftsman Table Saw
    Titebond III glue

    That was just tremendous fun to watch. Your assistant is very good with woodworking but she is awesome with the voice over! I hate to say it but she is far better than her father or me!

      Thanks, Richard! I definitely agree with you! The crazy thing is I just let her do her thing and she recorded and edited all her own audio. Pretty soon I’ll just be the shop buddy!

      Thanks, Kirstie! We tried to keep it really straightforward, so I’m happy to hear that worked out! And my shop buddy will definitely help me with more voice overs in future videos! For veggies, we’ve been struggling. There’s too much sun where we put it, so nothing has taken. We need to either try something more hearty or relocate the table.

      Apparently something hearty. The spot it sits in gets a lot of sun and we’ve had struggles keeping things alive there since we put it to use in the spring. My wife will get it figured out. She’s got a green thumb for sure!

      I actually don't have such saw but only learned about the kickbacks from some videos.
      Go for the splitter 👌

    • @WhiteLabWorkshop
      @WhiteLabWorkshop  4 года назад

      @@XDIY Kickback is definitely a valid concern. I had it happen one time when I was doing an awkward cut of a big sheet of 1/4 inch plywood. I was standing in a completely safe spot and recognized the kickback about to happen and just let go. It was pretty impressive to see a piece of plywood the size of a drawer bottom go flying like that. Since then, I've been much more careful about my cuts and started looking into what my options were for added safety on an old saw.
