I have about 5 different ones for the different holds and vary it quite a bit depending on how i want the hold to be. If its for a steep board then it doesn't need to be as large but for a vert board it needs to be larger for more comfort. 1/4 inch is a good starting place for a general crimp
I use a lazer at the moment but I used to have a brand I got from Etsy there are plenty of sellers on there. I would get an electric powered one as its much faster, efficient and more accurate than one you heat with a blow torch.
@@taylormadeholds280 thank you so much very helpful. I've just tried some ebonising solution on some of. my holds have you ever tried it .id love to see some that wasn't done by me as they are a bit crap.
Why are you not using a planer for the thin boards? Are they too thin for safe planing? Great video, wooden hold making are my favorite RUclips videos and my hobby as well.
The thin strips would get destroyed in a planer on their own. You can use the glue and tape method of temporary mounting them to a thicker board and then using the planer. Best practice is a drum sander. I don't have a drum sander but wanted to try and make one work with the wide belt sander. I had a go and it worked perfectly and is much quicker and probably better than mounting and planing them + spear thrower!
Awesome stuff
Very nice Demonstration
Very nice holds as well
Thanks 😊 I really like this design but can be a bit of a pain if I mess up late in the process!
Beautiful holds. Hope to own a set one day for my wall!
Holds look amazing, what paste wax do you use ?
Those look incredible! What size round over bit do you use to make the bevel?
