How long do you wait after milling before you move on to building? I ask because right before the crazy shots I noticed that the board had some really bad tension to it. The boxes look awesome btw!
I think it was about 10 months. I have a little room full of with dehumidifiers and whatnot as a makeshift kiln. it was dried down to 11%. The tension was probably because the log was a bit twisted and actually a big branch rather than the trunk. Thanks for watching as always!!
I'm a newbie to woodworking. Is there any way I can get dimensions? I'd hate to guess because I would waste a lot of wood trying to get them correctly proportioned.
I agree with the guys down there, those are some nice boxes!
Thank you!!
Nice looking boxes. I am building some that way as well for gifts.
Thanks! Yeah they are fun and relatively easy to make!
Nice job! Thanks for posting. I have to say your fingers so close to the blade made me nervous. Please be careful.
I like the cut of your jib. lol
Right there!
