This is fantastic, thank you for sharing this, Stephen. My grandfather, who's now passed, made one of these for me when I was a kid, and I wanted to craft a similar one for my nephews. Can't wait to make some sawdust!
This is a great project! I may use it with a group of 8 to 10 year old kids from my church. Besides not letting them any where near the bandsaw, do you see any other safety concerns that I’m missing. Thanks for the great work you do and share.
Should be a pretty safe project. You could do all the cuts with a handsaw. It's ideal to do the holes on a drill press, but you can probably do those with a hand drill. Thanks for commenting and hope this project works out well for your group of kids.
I think they're called a center finder square. They work on smaller blocks or smaller dowels to help find the center. However, it's not required since there are other ways to find the center.
I use that centering vise for my pen turning hobby. You can find it at most pen suppliers. But try Penn State Industries online. They should have one. They come in pretty handy.
The printing technique is so cool! Thanks for sharing 🚂🚂🚂
Thanks for the comment! It is a fun technique

What's the name of that measuring tool you have out at 0:43? It looks great at doing it's one specific job of marking 45 degree angles.

If i could ask a question of you, where did you get that nifty vise? I haven't been able to find anything like that anywhere i have looked.
