    Love the rolling scrap lumber storage! For the artwork, I would buy a sheet of pegboard that you could artistically personalize with paint. Then when it's hung, you have tool storage as a bonus. 😻

    I love the cart. The concept of the shower curtain art is good. Maybe select a piece of fabric from your fabric store or even cover it with a good quality drop cloth and paint on it.

    Tina, they make higher power batteries for Ryobi tools! If you snag one of those, your forstner bits will work just fine. I do it all the time! It also helps if you drill a tiny pilot hole for the center of the bit to go into.

    Oh Tina you are just so great at the DIYs that you are doing. I really agree with you on this workshop area looking so much better, and that black shelf in the corner looks really good, and also that storage cart you created looks so amazing and I do love those edges that you painted that really pretty green, I am just really liking the look of it and so awesome you can put all of those wood scraps in there to keep them in a great place to use for other fun projects. That shower curtain you used for that art project is cool looking and if you end up not liking it I am sure you will find something else to use to create a beautiful piece of art for the wall. You are so good at creating things I feel like you could paint something on a piece of fabric or even use a beautiful piece of fabric with a lovely pattern on it and frame that up. Thanks again Tina and Brian for being so wonderful, have a beautiful day, sending love and hugs, bye! 😂😊🥰🤗🙏👍👋💜💜

    Hello Tina!!!.......Tip........ I've been watching your videos almost since the beginning and I admire your progress!!! Well done to both you and Brian!!!
    What a nice makeover, as for the diy art you made from a shower curtain, I like it a lot. You may add strokes of acrylic paint to the finishes of each design and in that way it will become more alive and maybe you will like it more!!!

  • @lz738
    @lz738 Год назад

    For the shower curtain art: that is such a simple design. I would get rid of the shower curtain (donate it) and then just get a new drop cloth and paint that same design right on the drop cloth. You are a fantastic painter, afterall.

  • @CKSage-writes

    For drilling holes like that, it would be better to use a corded drill. It's not that you are not strong enough to drill the holes, it's that the drill is not.

He does welding and plenty of different woodworking projects not for one second did I think he wouldn’t already know that. Just goes to show there is always lots to learn whatever you do wherever you are, there is so much more ❤

    • @CKSage-writes
      @CKSage-writes Год назад +2

      ​@@laurafisher6531 It is not obvious! I do a lot of wood working projects and did not know that a dull saw blade would cause my saw to be really hard to cut through the wood and get stuck. I thought I was just not strong enough to handle the saw while cutting 4 inch wood. (I didn't realize that the blade was dull. It's not that old.) I got a new blade just on a whim, and it cut like butter. Now when I'm having issues cutting or drilling, I just assume that it's the equipment and troubleshoot from there.

    21:57 you could probably take the shower curtain off and paint on the drop cloth that is underneath it. Other than the paint (unless you use some you already have) there would be no extra cost.

For the art, maybe try to turn it differently, something interesting may catch your interest, who knows. Great job as always Tina and i'm happy you have a better space for your work.

    The cart build looks so good, I must admit to anxiety when you have been previously cutting on a box😂 I like the idea of the shower curtain art but honestly what about either another blackboard wall? You are such a fabulous artist so could create different backdrops when you want to, even featuring new lines of your prints for sale? That new jig looks like a real time saver as well, which got me thinking perhaps you could put together an episode of your trusted diy tools for beginners & items to avoid. Same for crafting supplies you have a lot of knowledge😊

    First of all- it all turned out fabulous. I LOVE that cart! That Kreg jig has been on my wishlist for a while. As for the shower curtain canvas- I know the pain of trying to fuss with that fabric- so I think it turned out pretty nice (or so it looks like it on my screen). But it definitely needed a stabilizer, I don't know how else you could have done it other than how you did it. lol I mean spray adhesive on that fabric would have been a nightmare (I assume) and it's too big for iron on (another nightmare). So other than that I don't know how else to improve upon it. I don't know if that fabric would accept gesso or priming to turn it into a canvas to create even the same design. If I ended up not liking it after I left it alone for a while- I'd still experiment before I tore it off as a total loss. Thanks for sharing all you do! Our weather just took a turn for the cold- so while my garage is insulated, it's not heated. Even though I'm in the PNW, it's just not as fun to shiver over a project as it is to complain about the heat. lol

Will be especially easier since the one You Left Behind at the Chicago House was a Magnificent Work and creative space 😮

    Hi, the gloves are not safe because it's a circular "instrument"... I mean, it's something that circles with power, so imagine if somehow your hand slips and the rolling part takes the glove, you cannot put out your hand so it's safer without gloves.
