How to Make Wooden Snowflakes // Holiday Fun with Joinery // Woodworking

- As we get into the holiday mood at the White Lab Workshop, I thought it would be fun to make a holiday-themed project. With a twist. For this week's woodworking video, I'll show you how to make some DIY home decor wooden snowflakes. The twist is that they will use more interesting joinery than just brad nails. Overlapping joints and dowels will hold these snowflakes together, with the help of some glue.
Materials and tools used:
3/4 inch by 3/4 inch square dowels - Pick them up at the home center or mill them yourself
3/8 inch dowel
Craftsman table saw
Dado stack (though the dados could be cut with a router or other means)
Dewalt sliding miter saw
Titebond II wood glue (polyurethane glue would work well too, if your joints have some play in them)

That's very beautiful
Thank you!
That's what I call team work Brad 😊 Great job everyone 😊 I've got to try making a few of these with hand tools for fun 😊 ॐ
Thank you! I always love to have help when I can. It would be interesting to see a hand tool version of this! -Brent
thanks buddy, i will use your idea. God Bless you.
Thank you very much! Merry Christmas!
Very nice 👍
Thanks man!
Great job and thank you for sharing enjoyed it
Nice work. Happy Christmas.
Thank you, sir! Merry Christmas!
Hi Brent, Wow what a job. These turned out great with the special help of the young ones. What wonderful memories.
I wasn’t actually sure if these would work. It was kind of an experiment in joinery for me, which was fun. Plus, any time in the shop with my kids is a bonus! Thank you for watching, Rita!
Love these snowflakes. Awesome job!
Thank you!
Super cool, must be nice to have do many helpers 😄👍
Thanks Grant! It’s awesome having all these helpers. They do get kind of expensive, though. Always demanding food and a place to live. They do good work, so I guess I’ll let them stay...
I love it!!!! Great way to practice some awesome joinery! Those decorations will last a life time! 🙌🏻😊
Haha! Thanks, Kirstie! That’s what I’m hoping for! It was fun to play around with the joinery on these!
Wow! Way too tedious for me hahaha. Thanks for sharing buddy!
Haha! Where’s your commitment, Jeff? Thanks for supporting the channel!
@@WhiteLabWorkshop Oh I leave that at the shop door before walking in lol
Hahaha!
Great work buddy. calculating an meassuring skills right here! 👍👍
Haha! Thanks man!
Hey Brad, came up a seriously nice project buddy, wishing You seasons greetings 🍻👍👍👍
Awesome, Sumo! Thanks for checking it out! Happy holidays, sir!
Love the snowflakes!! Thinking maybe some glitter on them would make them sparkle although it can become a nuisance!
Thank you! I suspect there are members of my family that would agree with you, though they aren’t the same members that would have to deal with the glitter getting everywhere...
Hello my friend,
I was thinking of making wooden snowflakes. You gave me a good idea. I watched curiously. Very beautiful and decorative. Congratulations. Thank you for sharing. Merry Christmas...
Thank you! I’m glad you enjoyed it and maybe picked up some inspiration. Merry Christmas to you as well!
That's cool! Such a fun looking project that came out great! Merry christmas!
Thank you so much! It was a fun one. Merry Christmas to you as well!
Oh man! That super cool! You and your joinery ideas! And with all the math going on, makes me thing you’re such a geek! 🤓 Also, I am learning, so that’s good. Haha! Great video my friend!
Haha! I am a geek indeed! Glad you learned something, though! I had fun messing around with all the angles to figure it out.
very nicely done! those joints were not easy at all
Thanks man! Yeah, it was a fun challenge!
Thank goodness I had my epi pen. The geometry allergy was unreal. That was a very impressive build. The joinery was incredible. Great video, yet again!
Haha! Thanks, Richard! Good to hear you made it through the geometry section without any major incidences. I honestly wasn’t sure if it would work at first. It was a pleasant surprise!
I don’t see the plans on your website. Am I overlooking them, or are they not there? I love this project, and need to make several!
Unfortunately, I have to admit that life got in the way of my intentions of posting plans for these thus far. Hopefully the video gives you enough to go on. It’s a fun project! Enjoy the process!
@@WhiteLabWorkshop I winged it and came up with a useable end result! Very satisfying when all three pieces slip snugly together! It’s my secret how many I made before achieving that! Ha!
@@tomt9543 Excellent! I’m glad you figured it out! And you can keep your secret as long as I can keep secret how many tries it took me 😆
Cut out all the repetition and you could have done this in 2 minutes.
Thanks for watching!
Too much smart talk, it's not a math class
Great job and thank you for sharing enjoyed it
