Soooo real - I'm not a craftsman but even doing simple fixes at home I spend most of the time looking for tools I had in my hand just a minute before, dropping stuff of the bench or hitting something with my head. Glue remains on my hands - a must. BTW: as for the card you used to spread the glue - have you been to Poland?

    Funnily enough, my first attempt at guitar making will be to make a body for a 5 string fretless. Bought a fretted neck (F*nd*r stylee) some years ago, but only now getting round to using it. Will remove frets, and infill with maple veneer, (or even lacewood if I can find it!).Will be making the body from mahogany and a top from Crimson, hardly surprisingly.
    THEN, if that all works out... the next one will be a full build, neck frets and all....
    Good luck with this, but I suspect you won't need any!

  • @charliehubbard4073
    @charliehubbard4073 6 лет назад

    First, the band saw and planer sequences were really well done, Matt. Good job. Those were fun to watch.
    Then I have a question. Do you ever lubricate the soles of your planes? I oscillate between paraffin wax and a thin film of light machine oil for that (3-in-1 basically) and I can't decide which I like better. It makes a HUGE difference though. It looked like you were struggling a bit planing the ash.

    Pop over to the grocery and buy yourself a roll of freezer paper. It’s about 60cm wide and plastic coated on one side. Great for unrolling onto the workbench or assembly table before flinging glue with such abandon.
    Also, James Wright is in the midst of a mad adhesive testing binge. Among many things, he’s determined that Tightbond III has excellent gap filling ability. So you made the right (Wright?) choice.

  • @shenanigansofmannanan
    @shenanigansofmannanan 6 лет назад

    @Matt Estlea- As you were running the neck timber through the Jointer, I was surprised to see that you weren't using any type of push stick , blocks, etc, to keep your hands and fingers well away from the spinning blades. That observation IS NOT a criticism in any way, shape, or form. I have no doubt in your skills and wisdom to operate safely within your abilities and limitations. There are so many "Safety Sally's" on the inter-webs that think craftsmen of every discipline should or must own and use every little gadget, jig, do-dad, and accessory when working with power tools. If the craftsman doesn't own or use these accessories they are branded and accused of being an unsafe moron and as such they must be devoid of skill or legitimacy as a craftsman.
    Those who actually work with their hands and machinery every day, and have for years and years and years, know that there are times when items like the blade guard on a table saw can actually be a hindrance or more dangerous during a specific task or for a technique. At that point, it shows greater skill and healthy fear/respect for that dangerous situation, forcing the craftsman to be more attentive and diligent while executing that task.
    For me as a fellow craftsman and subscriber, it affirms my impressions and observations of you as a woodworker and young man. Your dedication to excellence in your work and the sincerity in your voice as you communicate with your audience is endearing and exhibits a humility and consciousness that few people (talented or not) possess in today's culture. Through watching your videos and listening as you share with us about your work and passions, you don't try to hide your mistakes or struggles to find solutions. For that you have earned my respect and sincere admiration, as one man to another. I showed up for the Roubo work bench..but I subscribed for the content and quality of your character.
    Keep up the excellent work my friend! Thank you for sharing your passion with us all.

    • @CA-gy4qf
      @CA-gy4qf 6 лет назад

      Ricky Harrison Here in the UK (I'm a British cabinet maker) we don't tend to use pushsticks on jointers/surface planers. I was never taught to all through my apprenticeship which was only a few years ago. Reason being is you need to put pressure on different points of the timber at different times, this is far easier without pushsticks. For example you can get tapers and slight bends into a piece using a jointer, as well as straightening pieces. On saws we use pushsticks, same as spindle moulders etc, but for planers they are really not needed.

      @Kane-Roman 5 лет назад

      Well, when you have a sharp plane and you put it down on it’s blade, it really dulls the tool and he was saying that it might need sharpening. That’s probably because he keeps leaving the plane on it’s blade. It bugs me because people that are lucky enough to have good tools should know how to care for them. I on the other hand had to restore one of my grandpa’s old, rusty planes and I still care for it today.
