  • Discover the enchanting world of woodworking as we unveil the art of crafting stunning Texas stars from scrap wood in this captivating video.
    I made six wooden stars out of reclaimed lumber and the results are amazing!
    There are many ways to cut angles when making stars and in this video I show you exactly how to cut them so your miter joints will fit perfectly every time.
    I also share tips and tricks throughout the video on how to make jigs, adjust your miter saw angles, laminate wood, make spline joints, make wood putty, and apply linseed oil.
    Here is the link to the video I mentioned if you are looking for an easier way to cut the angles or if your miter saw doesn't go past 45 degrees:

    Great video! You could cut both of your rotor table boards on an angle then you can cut both sides of the star, without flipping both pieces.

    Excellent job. Thanks for the awesome tutorial video. I might add that Tung oil makes a very pretty finish as well. Wipe on, let dry for an hour, wipe on more and let dry. More you layers you add, the deeper the luster and color becomes all while making the surface durable...at least that is what I have found. See ya in the next one.

    Wonderful tutorial on building & measuring the wood. I'm going to try it on gluing different species of wood I have in my shop. Thank you for a fine video..

    you have the best u tubes by far the texas star very clear and easy to follow.
    you made the texas star dummy proof. i would like to see you make a
    3d star there is a few people out there but instructions are very poor.
    if you could give it a go you would be a super star.

    Made my first star the other day following your other videos. The only difference was I used my table saw and a jig for the 54 degree cut then finished up on the miter saw. Thanks to hurricane Beryl I have a large supply of cedar fence boards to make stars out of.

    Great detail on the angles and providing board lengths for different size stars.
    Technically the joinery you're using to connect your pieces is called a loose tenon or floating tenon.

    • @savvybuilds
      @savvybuilds  Год назад

      I think you're right about that. I was going back and forth between the two, in my head, trying to figure out what it was called. Loose tenon seems correct. Thanks!

    Nice. Informative video. You might consider dowels instead of splines. Just a thought. I have a horizontal boring machine, so it would be quite easy for me. Any way thanks for all the angle and jig info. Cheers! 👍

      Cheers! I'm thinking a biscuit joiner might work great too!

    Very good video, they really stand out on the screen and at certain angles and the grain of the wood the points even look as though they have been chamfered or beveled to give a 3d affect.
    Quality video, expertly explained.
    I was thinking that at 16:47 you were going to say keep these little off cuts as we can make a miniature star.
    Thank you for sharing
    👍👏👍👏

    • @savvybuilds

      A miniature star would have been hilarious to do! Maybe next time I'll give it a go :). Thanks for the idea!

    Thanks for a great video. I learned a whole lot here. If I wanted to make a six-sided star, would my angles be 60° and 30°, or do I need something else?

    • @savvybuilds
      @savvybuilds  Год назад +1

      Mathematically, yes I believe that would work. However, I haven't tried it yet. I'll have to give it a go sometime soon just to confirm.

    Hello. Can you tell me what is the angle of the board you are cutting at 36'?

  • @michmvp
    @michmvp Год назад +3

    If you have a Bisquit Jointer. It would do just as good and a lot less time.

    • @savvybuilds
      @savvybuilds  Год назад

      I was thinking the same thing! Unfortunately, I don't own one yet but I think it's next on my list of tools to buy.

  • @danielfoster2388

    Can you use a biscuit cutter?

    • @savvybuilds
      @savvybuilds  11 месяцев назад

      I think so. I don't own a biscuit joiner yet but I will definitely try it out one day.

  • @terryevans146
    @terryevans146 11 месяцев назад +2

    Y not just use a biscuit jointer?

    • @savvybuilds
      @savvybuilds  11 месяцев назад +1

      I asked myself this many times during the making of this video lol. I actually don't own one...yet.

    Those are mortise and tenon joints, not spline joints.

    • @savvybuilds
      @savvybuilds  10 месяцев назад

      I find it depends what book you read. I have one book that refers to these as spline Joints and another book that refers to them as loose tenon joints. Not a true mortise and tenon.
      Either way, gets the job done.
