Two things for today. 1) All future videos should include the words "squigly wiggly" and 2) I have started organizing a union so that you children can have hot chocolate whenever they want. FREE THE HOT CHOCOLATE!
😂😂😂
#3: make "🎶 Wher's my push-stick 🎵" the official jingle of the channel!
@@saveriog.825 that should be my new intro song 😂
You looks lika a very nice person, with high level wood skills and
ofcourse, you are so beautiful.
Thanks for share you knowlentage.
I'll say squiggly wiggly 2 times 😉
My favorite food safe stain is extremely concentrated instant coffee
Beet juice is also a great wood stain! I'm a parrot owner and I've used it for coloring home-made and uncolored store bought bird toys since one of my birds is obsessed with the color red and has a bad habit of destroying all the red pieces of a toy and then abandoning the rest of the toy.
I'm late to the party but wanted to second coffee followed by mineral oil if humidity is going to be the bane of nearly everything you decide to attempt.
i always like how you explain your project. you're always excited and that makes me excited.
So awesome to hear. Thanks!
Something I've found:
People seem to be willing to pay more money for items that have small imperfections than for items that are perfect.
I believe this is because the imperfections show that it was made by hand, that a human being put in the time and effort into making that item.
Everything, including your set of hand-blown green glass dishes with the tiny bubbles and imperfections, little bits of sand, proof they were crafted by the honest, simple, hard-working indigenous aboriginal people of wherever
Did you really “find” that or did you just watch fight club?
@@pigbenis2812 the trend of paying for obviously handmade items was well established before Fight Club. That's why the movie mocked it. It's a known form of consumerism.
@@PopeGoliath It's not really a bad thing though. Sure there are some annoying vanity cases, but without people valuing the hand-made, those crafts would fade away.
I used to experience that all the time when I was selling screen printed patches, I'd usually put my misprints and the weird marbled prints that I'd get from changing ink colors into a discount bin but people started offering extra tips for the weirdest misprints.
I love seeing how excited you are for each of your projects.
I love learning all this stuff!
Super awesome, awesome, awesome it's a pleasure watching your projects and I admire you enomoursly thanks for sharing
One of my favorite things about this channel. Some woodworkers barely register emotion when they make things - I still cheer out loud when things work!
I was thinking the same thing. I also thought just when you could not get any more excited about a project, you proved me wrong. 1) Proving me wrong isn't all that much of a challenge. 2) It IS a VERY CLEVER project.! 😁👍
nice!

So cool to see you here Martin!
Now I know how I ended up here :D
"black" food colouring is actually just really dark green.
That's why the wood came out the colour it did.
Yes. That’s what I discovered here.
It's still beautiful!
I first found out it was dark green after eating some "black" Halloween cupcakes.
Licorice is actually a very dark green too 😳
we can tell what it is by what it does
I really love how you had like a little bar status when you were talking about the sponsor. It was really satisfying to watch
Glad to hear!
Your excitement about your projects is infectious!
Glad you think so!
Could you add magnets to the ends of the handle and the edge of the base to lock it in better and keep it from dropping off he edge?
That’s a great idea!
I was going to add that you could glue an extra piece to the side of the base that is flush with the top of the "flat pack".
Or another idea is to make a slot mortise on the handle and a matching tenon in the base to stop sideways movement.
Regardless, love the videos and keep up the good work 👍👍
@@whatdaf11 all great ideas!
I've used the angled cut with a scroll saw to make the design raise above the main surface. When I cut in 1 direction, it raises the design, but when I cut in the other direction, it lowers the design by the same amount (as long as you don't change the angle). This let's you make a thinner design that looks like it "pops" out of the main board.
@@whatdaf11 yes, exactly what I was going to post. Fortunately I checked to see if anyone else had suggested it first :)
Your attitude makes such a difference compared to a lot of other woodworking channels. I love the "whatever" comments if you make a mistake and you chalk it up to a learning process. That is a talent I wish I had!! Keep up the good work!
Thanks!
You can also make the first 'ring' of the bowl twice as thick as the rest. That way you do not have to glue and drill two rings together.
On the oval bowl, keeping the wood where the handle will rest a bit longer would alow you to cut a dado in it for the handle to rest in.
Nice work. Love the oval one.
Absolutely brilliant. Love the fact you show your fails. Really inspiring to see even pro’s have disasters.
תודה 😉
The walnut one looks so good!!
Thanks so much!
I love your videos! I really enjoy that you show your problem solving and errors. So many woodworkers share their videos like they never make mistakes and that's simply not true to woodworking.
I’ve yet to make a project without any mistakes!
In case it hasn't been said yet, it's a collapsi-bowl.
Just came to see if anybody said it.
Superbowl
What is it. Collapsable or collapsible.
@@youremybiggestfan Collapsible. Google told me so.
Awesome project. My mother-in-law has a bowl like this that is apple-shaped, and I've always loved it. Now I'll have to look into trying to make one for myself.
Thanks! I saw the apple shaped one in my research!
Remember back in highschool when you took trig and didn't know how it would apply in the real world? Well... THIS! The optimum angle can be found with a little bit of trig once you know 3 things: Your kerf width, your board thickness, and your overlap amount. I don't know the formula off the top of my head, but I'm sure it wouldn't take too long to figure it out when sketching out how the kerf cuts through the wood at different angles and seeing where the overhanging cut face overlaps the underhanging cut face. This is the beauty of trig, you can derive formulas from pencil and paper sketches.
I have watched things on RUclips about woodworking for about 4 years now and this is the first time RUclips has every shown me your videos. I hate how they do things because this should be seen. That was some great thought on how to make these. Great how you explain and keep us both educated on some new ideas as well as being friendly and wish I was there kind of instruction. I look forward since I just subscribed to see other videos you have made and am hoping you still make new content. Such a Great New thing I found to start off 2024 with new things to try.
Working on lots of big stuff! Stay tuned!
Great project. I think the biggest thing I'd add is maybe some magnets for the handles. That way the ends wouldn't want to slip off and would have a satisfying snap when you open the bowl!
You never cease to amaze young lady. Great job.
Thanks!
Another great project, I like how you explain each step. I love Ariat clothing and boots.
Thanks so much! I’m so impressed with all this stuff
I AM FROM BRAZIL AND A ALWAYS WATCH YOUR PROJECTS.CONGRATULATIONS!
Honestly my first instinct on hearing that you needed food-safe dye was to use food to dye it. Like pomegranate or tumeric.
Do you think Neapolitan ice cream might do the trick?
This gave me a great Idea.
Ty for reminding me u can do this.
I bought a well made christmas themed one years back from a friend that was made by her great grandfather.
Can't let these old but amazing tricks be forgotten
Glad it gave you a good idea!
I don't even own a bandsaw (yet) but I love being inspired by your creativity and enthusiasm! Always something interesting on this channel !!
Awesome! Love it
It could be done with a scroll saw.
What’s old is new again. This was a high school shop project in 1982. Fun and nostalgic to watch. Thanks for the memories!
The angle will very a bit depending on blade width. Blades with an aggressive set and Carbide saw blades will need more angle.
Yup! They’ve been around for a while! Was so fun to experiment with it
So you can calculate the angle you need with trigonometry
sin-1(kerf/material thickness)=minimum angle.
at 7 degrees, with .75in plywood it looks like you've got about a 3/32 kerf :)
Your smile and excitement is contagious, a real pleasure to watch.
☺️☺️
Just so you know, most wood stain is food safe if you give it 30 days to cure. great video!
I thought both of those were gorgeous. I love that you have no qualms about sharing your mistakes either. I have been following you from the time you were starting up.It's not easy to have your ingenuity or your gusto and I doubt if I will ever make them but still you are awesome and inspiring. I really fail to understand who would give a thumbs down for your effort. Ignore those idiots. Thanks.
Thanks so much! We all make mistakes. It’s all in how you deal with them.... I don’t look at the thumbs downs.... only a negative person puts negativity in the world. And just gotta to feel bad for those ppl!
Wow!! I am 100% building one of these, amazing job!!!! As always 😉
Also I’ve seen people use coffee and tea to stain wood which would also obviously be food safe.
Thanks! Have fun! Yes! I’ve used tea in the past. Totally forgot about that one...
Fantastic, you overcame
Your expectations. It is brilliant to see your eyes and smiles for the satisfaction of the work.
Congratulations.
Thanks so much! So fun to make this stuff
I just kept hearing her talk about "the meatball core" and I was so intrigued, but I guess a maple core is good too!
Haha maybe the ice cream sandwich made up for that 😂
Hi, I really like the failed one because to me it looks like an antique chinese basket. Very beautiful. Congrats with the succes. Great idea. Thank you.
There’s definitely an old world feeling about it!
I used to buy these in Afghanistan as gifts. Everyone back home loved them.
They’re so cool
You are such a great teacher and a very talented woodworker. I really like how you show everything including mistakes. It reminds us that we all make a mistake now and then and then try to fix them. Many others just show what went right and delete anything that might show a flaw. You have a great personality and are so much fun to watch. I wish you years of success. 👍
Glad you enjoy all my fails ha
i can’t be the only one who thought it was an expandable tub by seeing the thumbnail
Again, thank you for showing the detail. Also for sharing the small mistakes you make and the way you fix them. Makes me feel a little better about my shop errors.
Maybe it's just me, but the black line in the circular bowl makes it look like a dragon eye!
You laugh, giggle and point out your mistakes, show true excitement and joy with what you do....you are so entertaining to watch....and very talented too!
Keep up the great work and hope it’s not another month till your next vid!!
Cheers
So glad you like it! Ha! Thanks so much!
Lots of natural food safe stains. Personally I've used coffee and charcoal. Also could use berries, turmeric, juice any veggie, ect.
I really love how the oval bowl turned out the different colours. By messing up or failing on a projet like you said we earn skills on how doing it different, better the next time.
Have a nice warm time in your garage
Greetings from Luxemburg
Thanks! No better way to learn!
Hmm. Depending on the sander's design you might be able to sand the inside of the kerf with a table top belt sander and a narrow belt...
Amazing project! Love the way you explane all you do. Here is freezing too. Hugs from Ushuaia, south of Patagonia Argentina.
Glad you like it. Thanks!
Love how the ice cream sandwich version turned out. Looks like you could use it as a bread basket which flatpacks away. With regards to your issue with the handle slipping off the sides, would it be an idea to add small vertical risers on the outside of the cross piece, to prevent the handle from slipping off?
Thanks! Great idea!
Cool project and thanks for teaching me a new word. I have never heard of successed but hey it’s all about learning.
You can still fix the problem with the handle coming off.
Take it off, steam it for a little bit and bend the tips towards each other an inch or two.
This will put some tension on it so it is constantly pulling closed and will be less likely to pop out.
Another way would be to put a couple decorative tabs on the end of each leg, that would trap the handle in the locked open position.
They could even have a pin inserted to lock the handle from rotating, and lock the entire mechanism in the open or closed position.
I'm thinking brass or stainless steel.
Ohh I love how exited you always are it makes it even better to watch
Awesome explanation thanks for the awesome video’s❤
Gadzooks! She's got it.
Took three days.You had to make dinner,help with homework,tuck hubby in,bake cookies,sew knees in jeans.
Hahahah! You know the deal 😂
Thanks for the experiment. It went well. I've wondered why people making bandsaw boxes so often cut and glue across the grain. You point out what should be done, and demonstrate how hard it is to keep everything in mind at the same time. (Not to mention the extra challenges of children and cold.) Keep up the good work!
For your slightly short oval handles, perhaps a countersink into the bottom handle end, and a short domed dowel to fit over in the base, would help lock it open.
"You go to school on the first one". The oval ice cream sandwich design looks so nice. It's a good thing that you tried two ideas so that second one turned out better.
Totally! So happy I cut the round one first!
Love the mechanism that locks it open! Mind was blown 👏
Thanks Marie! These were so fun to make
Really cool concept, I'm saving this idea/video away for future reference! I think I can adapt this idea to work with thinner wood on one of my CNC Lasers! Nifty video, thanks for sharing! Now I have yet another thing I need to design! The list is forever growing longer and longer!
Missed an opportunity to call it a collapsi-Bowl
I’m really mad at myself for that...
This person puns right!
Love 💗 the imagination and creativity!! Fantastic experiment and instruction!!🙌👍
Thanks!
Thanks for stressing the cut time factor, i'm always rushing cuts!
Yeah! If I showed it in real time, no one would watch!
I enjoy your enthusiasm. You are an excellent mad scientist too. It's so cool.
Hahah! Thanks!
I’ll say you took 20 mins to produce the cut on the oval project.
Really good guess 😉
It is sooo nice you show your hits and your mistakes as well. As always your work is top quality. Love how it looks!
Thanks for sharing
Greetings from Chile
Thanks so much! Glad you like it!
Tamar, I agree with the other comments about your infectious positivity! I also appreciate your opinion of what you consider a fail, where would we be without making mistakes to learn from. I have not seen many variations of these, and absolutely love the oval bowl! Wants to make me go out in the shop, fire up the bandsaw, and attempt one of these! Keep up the fantastic content, helping us all learn from mistakes, and the positivity! Thoroughly enjoy your content and always look forward to more!
Thanks so much! If this video made you want to go out in the shop, I did my job! That’s the goal! 🤘🤘
The ‘mess up’ gives it character - nice,work.
Thanks!
What an exceptional finish. That worked out far better than I had expected that it would. Thank you for sharing your excellent work Tamara. I always enjoy your work but this is a cut above. Think that I’ll have to make one for my mum and another for my sister, they will love them but hmmm walnut is wicked expensive here in Australia so another wood will have to do. Again, thanks Tamara, a really great job and thank you for the instruction, easy to follow and understand, thank you
Awesome! Have fun making them!
Cool idea with using the tape first and then gluing the template on top.
Glad you liked it!
GEORGIOUSLY DONE GAL!!
The Finished product looks great! Again, thanks for sharing.
Thanks!
What a journey. Conflict, adversity, lessons learned, happy resolution. Great video.
Hahah! Like a great Hollywood picture! 😂
I love your content! You are so smart and I only hope to be half as good as you at woodworking someday.....that'll make me happy indeed. You are motivating and I love the smile you always have on your face. I'm watching on my lunch break and now I can't wait to get home to work in the shop. Take care from Alaska...
Awesome! Love that it gave you motivation! Have fun!
Love the walnut one. As with failures they are good to see as we are learn from mistakes. 😊
Thanks! Yup! Happy I tried it out!
a very compact picnic basket... love it!
☺️☺️
Great work! I found one of the bowls 4 years ago. It gave me an amazing idea for a kinetic sculpture!
Thanks! So fun
So cool. They're simple, elegant, compact, I love it
Awesome to hear! Thanks!
Stumbled across your videos. I love how you walk us through the experience and show all successes and fails. Great job, keep learning, and thank you!
Thanks so much!
Your explanations are great! You are an amazing teacher. Love that you mixed the experimentation with your experience and intuition
Glad to hear! Thanks!
Thanks for talking through the process as you go. It's great to hear those insights.
Glad you like it!
Hi, Tamar,
Cool idea, never seen on RUclips.
Nicely done.

Thanks so much! Glad you liked it!
@@3x3CustomTamar I like everything you do. I am a fan of women that can handle tools.

👍👍👍
FYI: in order for the spiral to not fall through the tangent of the angle should be smaller than the ratio of the thickness of the wood to the width of the cut. Or: angla alpha < atan (thickness / sawwidth).
Sehr gut erklärt !
Dankeschön für die wirklich praktische Anleitung !
Thank you so much for posting your trials and tribulations with the finishes. Your videos always are so informative and fun.
Glad you like them! Thanks!
I had the exact type of basket shown in the thumbnail as a kid, I loved that thing! I had a handful of handmade wooden toys that some relative made when I was still a baby and I think that that basket went with them.
really great idea to make some kind of set out of them!
very kool. the oval one sits straighter too. great job.
Thanks so much!
As always, a nice project with a friendly smile from Tamar.
Glad you liked it!
Really amazing, the joy you have when you are creating is a real inspiration! Makes me want to make! I second the free the Hot Chocolate.
😂😂😂 I mean we can’t have hot chocolate every day! 😂😂😂
@@3x3CustomTamar but you live in the Northeast!
@@terristroh3965 😂😂😂
I am able to meet building challenges ,however to build and clearly explain what I'm doing for an Internet audience that is looking to pick out my flaws would be impossible for me. Your work and instruction is exceptional Tamar.
Thanks! Something I had to get used to...
With cutting and backing out the blade, I'd think you'd have 23 minutes 48 seconds of bandsaw work into this project. A really cool project too, I've seen scroll saw bowls, but never these. What a great skill builder!
Soooo close! It was under... yeah. Maybe it would be easier on a scroll saw? But I don’t have one. Great practice regardless
@@3x3CustomTamar no way you cranked that out in under 20 minutes?! Great practice indeed.
@@twotopsturning6493 just just JUST under. 19 was the magic number 😉
Love your videos, you have a wonderful way of presenting and explaining what you are doing! Thanks for sharing! I always learn a lot from your videos.
Glad you like them! Awesome to hear!
I say 18 minutes and 10 seconds for that cut. Awesome job!
An idea I had for the handle of the oval one--what if instead of cutting the handle length flush with the depth of the bowl, they were left like a quarter inch longer, and then fit into grooves that you cut in the base piece? Then they wouldn't pop out laterally.
Great work, as always!
That’s an awesome idea that I wish I thought of!
And very close on the time 😉
This has been really enjoyable to watch and will def be digging into my own similar project for some gifts. Thanks for your joyful, humble, and thoughtful approach to the craft! Keep it up sister!
Glad you liked it!
The slide in and out of frame just cracks me up everytime... It is you signature move!
Haha! Clearly I laugh at myself too 😂
Congratulations on the accuracy and ..... patience! 👍
Thanks!
That oval one looks FANTASTIC! I saw one comment about a magnet on the end of the handle, which is a good idea but you could also make an extra half lap opening on the base to capture it. It would require a longer length base and perhaps a thicker base too. Just thought I’d mention. Nice work!
Thanks! Both great ideas! Either one would work!
Cool projects!!! Enjoy watching you as always!! Take and be safe!!
תודה!!
תותחית על!!!!
Dear Madam
Superb! You have asked us to guess the time you took to cut the spiral, in my view its not the amount of 'time' but the amount of patience, hard work, concentration and your determination to succeed in your project, are worth guessing. No one can guess how patient, hard working and determined you are.
Anyhow the scarf worn on your head looked like turban👳we wear.
Ha! Thanks!
Welcom back Tamara . Nice to see you again and im so lucky to find your channel
Glad to be back! Thanks!
Love this. I'm going to say it took 45 minutes to cut the bowl. Thx for the video!
Thanks! Not that long!
I have seen these in the scrollsaw magazine but couldn't get my head around how the work. my one attempt was a disaster. Thank you so much for sharing, I think I understand it now.
Glad you understand it now!
@@3x3CustomTamar yes thanks, it is about the cut angle being right to start with and I think that is where I went wrong.
Love your enthusiasm!
WOW! A lot of work but I’m sure it was a good learning experience and satisfying.😎
I really enjoy and appreciate your videos. The enthusiasm is infectious, the fails and experimenting are relatable and we all learn a lot. Even the sponsorships are ones we see you using and are applicable in the video. I think we all wish you had some heat in the shop tho haha. I also like the small aspects of your family in the bloopers and how your kids draw on the workbench. It all makes for a genuine, relatable, and fun video. Great work.
So glad you like it! Thanks so much!
Love the outtakes at the end of recent vids.
Glad to hear!
