Great ideas!! I wish to buy this machine✨

[@LEO-il9id]

What a great idea. Thank you for sharing your knowledge. Do you ever find it necessary to glue/bind the inside of the pages after the safe hole os cut out?

[@WendellWoodworks]

Thanks! Never needed to glue the inside :)

Woohoo! Thanks for watching, Ron!

Thanks! Have you tried to sell book safes on Etsy? If so how did they sell?

[@WendellWoodworks]

Yup! That’s where I sold them. Went really well for me. It normally takes some time to get your first sales and then it picks up 🙂

I just subscribed and am really enjoying your videos. (Via, Steve Good's link to your site)

Nice video! I made one yesterday and it came out nice. Would you say that the # 12 blade should be trashed after one book?

[@karenbrown4037]

Hi! My 5th grade daughter has been working hard to try to make these, and we keep encountering a situation where we start the cut, and the blade pops out of the holder. It really doesn't seem to like cutting the paper! Any suggestions? It holds a blade just fine when we cut wood.

[@WendellWoodworks]

Hi, Karen! You might try a stronger blade? I’ve since had the best luck with Pegas super skip…try a higher number too and take it slow without pushing hard. Hope that helps!

[@karenbrown4037]

@@WendellWoodworks Thank you! I'm using Pegas blades too. I've tried skip, reverse skip, and modified geometry, but I couldn't find super skip in the store. When you use the glue in the first step on the pages, does it just soak in at the edges or does it soak in further than that? I'm having a touch more success when I use shims to hold down the pages right next to the blade, but it's still super frustrating.

[@rockspringstigerstennis1560]

Can you use mod podge to bind the pages? Thanks for sharing!

[@WendellWoodworks]

Hmm I’ve never tried, but probably so! :)

[@rockspringstigerstennis1560]

@@WendellWoodworks I'll give it a try. Love your videos. Thanks for sharing your talents!

[@scottmorris4914]

[@WendellWoodworks]

Hopefully in the New Year! I had good intentions for more this year, but…mom life ;). Thanks for watching!
