Hi Phill, Nice, simple and effective, looks good painted. I enjoy watching you making items for the home or workshop and all out off scrap or pallet wood. This chisel rack will match what you have in the workshop. I watch Matt "Badger Workshop" yesterday he mad a chisel rack he mounted to the wall in fact it filled the full width of the wall. As always Phill a great video take care
Thanks Phill, a simple but effective design from you as usual, I was going to ask if you'll be securing it as I was concerned it might topple over but it looks surprisingly stable anyway ! Hope that you enjoy the lathe !
I would love to know your thoughts on that Parkside lathe. I had a look at it and thought about purchasing, but am probably still too inexperienced in woodworking to get value from it.
Don’t buy it you will get more value out of paying slightly more for a midi lathe that is cast iron. The parkside lathe is cheaply made and poor quality with plastic parts that won’t last. As a woodturner I wouldn’t touch it myself I’ve seen so many RUclips videos of them being used and I’ve spotted so many issues that can become dangerous with them. It’s not worth it.
@@XYZEngraveprint A friend of mine did make the comment "you get what you pay for", and I guess it depends on how much use you intend for it. Interested in Phils review, and will make my own as well. @annastelforthmakes : what would you recommend ?
@@MadebyShea854 I would go with something that has a bit of weight to it ideally a cast iron base this reduces the risk of vibration, you usually find that with the cheaper aluminium / steel rails they can twist. I personally own an Axminster AW205WL as my small bench top lathe for little projects but Charnwood, Record Power and Lumberjack do good versions too. If you do decide on the parkside lathe things to be aware of are that it is quite an odd thread size so finding chucks to fit is not easy and the tool rest is made of aluminium which can easily bend or break if you get a bad catch (this can happen with cast iron tool rests but less chance than with Aluminium one). Also I would buy a set of decent beginner chisels rather than using the ones supplied with the lathe which are of poor quality and bend easily. The main thing is to have sharp chisels you shouldn’t have to put pressure on the wood in order for it to cut, it should glide through the wood easily with minimal effort. If you are not sure about traditional tools then a great way to get started are carbide tip turning tools, you can get some decently priced ones on amazon. Be warned woodturning can be very addictive and before you know it you can spend a fortune on different tools very fast, especially when you decide that you can actually fit a floor standing lathe in your workshop (don’t ask how I know 🤣).
Hi Phil another easy and very useful tool storage project. I need to buy a drill press, will you be so kind and advise on which one do you have. Thanks a million and please continue the good work. Cheers
@@PhillWyattProjects nice drill, I have the Bosch version it’s great but the round handle is annoying to use can be quite awkward at times. Much prefer the DP55’s more conventional style one.

Hi Shaun 👍🏻 I also watched the Badger Workshop vid yesterday the rack looked pretty good I think 👌🏻. Cheers Shaun 😀
Great project Phill. That looks a nice set of chisels for the new lathe. Happy turning!
Cheers Ross. I thought I would give it a go as the Parkside Lathe is so cheap. Fingers Crossed!
My friend this was a great idea and video thanks for sharing Keep building Cheers
Thank you! Cheers!

Thanks 👍🏻 it came out surprisingly stable although I do plan on mounting it to a wall at some point.

I do plan on making a review video about the Lathe once I've had a chance to put it to use. I haven't used it yet so I can't really comment on it.

I very much look forward to it. Built a pallet wood fence today - partly inspired by YOU !!

Thank you 👍🏻 yes my Drill Press is the Scheppach DP55. I bought it last year. I like it and I'm glad I bought it. Works well for me.
@@PhillWyattProjects Thank you so much for the quick reply :)
