    Nice job! Couple of tips. If you're cutting multiple pieces that are the same length, clamp a stop block to your fence the distance from the blade that you wish the piece to be. Then cut as many as you want by running the board up to the block. Exact same length each time quickly. But most important, make you a push stick for pushing the work thru the saw blade. Saves the fingers lol! Good job tho!!

    Well done young man, you will have a great future. Just a suggestion, when you have spread your wood glue and then apply the foot it will help if you press down on the foot and rub it left and right (called rub jointing) you will find that the joint will become very tight and strong you will have removed all of the air and the joint will be twice as strong instantly (if you clamp down hard on most PVA glues and you squeeze out too much of the glue it can weaken a joint) however with a small job like this strength is not an issue. P.S as others have said Safety/Safety I got to 75 and have only lost the tips of a finger and a thumb many years ago, Love my workshop, good luck.

    Have you tried turning the feet by 90° so that you have the cut faces on the ends and the factory planed faces on the bottom? That way it doesn't matter if you're 1mm or 1/16th out with your cutting as the difference will be on the vertical plane. It would also reduce the possibility of the brads splitting the feet and have the consistency of having end grain showing on the ends of the project.

    Thanks for the video. A couple of pointers about the sanding. You could save time and make it much easier if you sanded the complete board before cutting and assembly. Also, one should never tilt an orbital sander. The sander should always stay flat to the surface to prevent any gauging.

    • @SouthernBoySwimminUpstream
      @SouthernBoySwimminUpstream  Год назад

      Thanks for tuning in! Yes, sanding would be better and faster if done before cutting and assembly! For some reason my boards somehow always gets gauged during the cutting and assembly process, (I think I need to sand down my work benches, haha) so I always just do it after! It does take more time sanding after because of all the little pieces, so thank you for that good advice! And thank you so much for commenting!

    Young man great job, trying to teach yourself and make money, but I do want to give you a piece of advice. I have been a master carpenter cabinet maker, woodworker for 42 years when you're doing cross cuts on a table saw cutting against the grain you should alwayswork with a sled or with a guard you should never be cutting against the fence. There's a good chance it could pinch and kick back on you and you can get majorly hurt which we don't want that great job.

    • @SouthernBoySwimminUpstream
      @SouthernBoySwimminUpstream  11 месяцев назад

      You are so right. It is a very dangerous way to do that cut! I have been thinking of how I could do the cut, and I think a 45 degree router bit would be the safest and fastest! Thank you for the professional advice, it is much appreciated! I bet with your experience, I could learn a lot from you! Thank you for commenting!

    • @danielvicars515
      @danielvicars515 8 месяцев назад

      You could save yourself some time & energy by cutting your feet first, then chamfering the remaining board in one piece. The ends can be chamfered on your compound radial saw, or, as others have said, using the crosscut/mitre guide on your table saw. For max efficiency, sand the final product only once; otherwise you're repeating a process needlessly. Good work, good luck, and keep swimming upstream!

      How much are you selling them for? Also staging the product is one of the most important factors for selling! Every few days, copy what your description says in the listing and delete the listing and remake it by pasting the old description on the new listing. (That way you don't have to write it over and over!) This way your listing always stays at the top of Marketplace, and people will see yours first! Don't give up, woodworking sales fluctuate by times and states! Hope that helps!

    Don't sand until the product is completely assembled. (invest in a detail sander)
    Or, sand the entire board before cutting, and then just touch up the cuts after.
    Sanding each individual piece after cutting is less efficient, takes more time, ...and time cuts into profit.

      Honestly, I started my business with nothing more than a drill and a jig saw! I built a farmhouse bench with those two tools! Don't worry about the big stuff yet. Big tools do help with time and precision, but they definitely are not needed! Hope that helps!

      The local big box hardware stores will have scrap by their panel saw. It’s usually free or 60% off. I’ve gotten lots of good lumber that way.

    Hi Jacob its pete from wales uk so great to see you enjoying woodworking as i told you in my youth all done by hand a garage roof was easy but a house foof WOW!!!!!!! 6x2 timbers carried up a ladder 30ft then cut your pattern for the rest of timbers, first ridge cut then birdmouth or bottom cut then 8x2 hip raters , when roof was finished and covered floor joists 8x2 were cut and fixed , then to make stairs ( i was 16yrs old then) by hand the timber was piranha pine ,i will tell you how on next comment stay sharp mate.

      Hello Mr. Pete! How in the world you guys were able to get those large pieces of wood up for the roof is beyond me! Especially up a 30ft ladder! If I were to carry a 4x4 up a 30ft ladder, I would lose my balance or get tired fast! So how you guys got a 6x2 up there is awesome! Then on top of that, all the cuts on those other huge pieces of wood y'all did by hand! Wow! I will be looking forward to you telling me about the stairs next!

      @SouthernBoySwimminUpstream  Год назад +1

      Hmmm... Could I ask how much you are trying to sell them for? Did you stage them good for the pictures? Are you using Facebook market place or something else? The other thing I can think of is, sales usually vary from place to place and from time to time. One state may not be looking for the same things people are looking for where I live. But, don't give up, just keep reposting every chance you get! Thank you for commenting, hope that helps!

    Price dropping just barstardises the whole woodworking industry. It undervalues and reinforces your skill level, product quality (or lack of) Great Craftsman Woodworkers sell their products by illustrating their quality construction methods, features and product value, which far outweighs customers perspective towards a cheaper knock-offs in price.
    Price dropping is commonly used by younger, amateur and unskilled homie woodies that perspective themselves as making cheap product with no skills. Which do you wanna be recognized for?
    Buyers base price at number 7/8 out of 10... #1 being of little value reflected in the price.
    Failing to manufacturer quality products degrades the whole woodworking industry.
