Welcome to my woodworking channel. I am passionate about taking the most wonderful woods mother nature created and turning them into beautiful objects of day to day use. This is not a DIY channel about teaching the woodworking craft, showing you new and nifty techniques about how to build wooden objects or anything alike. It’s about celebrating nature’s beauty and providing inspiration for projects of your own.
Thanks for your support!

Hello from Canada! I really enjoy your videos on all topics, especially the Shaper Origin. I also recently purchased one, and have found your information very enlightening. After watching he one on the Elm table, I was wondering if you could tell me at what stage of grit sanding you apply the sanding sealer? After final sanding or earlier? Also I have noticed you like to use Rubio as you final finish, so do I. I was wondering how Rubio reacts to the surface after the sealer is applied. Rubio mentions it requires fibres to adhere or bond. I was wondering if you had any issues. Thanks again for all your videos and topics.
Hi Henry. Thank you so much for your kind words - pumped to hear you find some of my videos helpful. And welcome to the Shaper Origin family: I hope this tool will give you as much joy as it gives me :D
Regarding your question, the most important thing to understand is that the sealer is meant to soak into the wood grain, that is into the fibre, but everything that you apply to the surface needs to be removed. You can't apply the sealer and then the Rubio. The sealer is meant to be removed, and only sealer that was sucked into your fibre will remain. Here is the process: 1) Sand up to 180 grit, 2) Apply sanding sealer and let it cure for as long as it says on your sealer (for me: 1h), 3) Remove the sanding sealer using 240 grit paper. Ensure you remove all the sealer, that is you don't have "shiny" spots left on your surface, 4) clean with mineral spirit and apply Rubio. Hope that helps...
That is really beautiful. There is a bunch of Elm around me in Lake Hughes, Southern California. I don't know what kind it is, just that it is prone to falling over and certain disease. Where are you that you have Wych Elm?
Thank you, glad you are it 😁 I am from Europe (Switzerland) and this wood was from Germany. We also have different types of elms here, which also varies in looks (there are a couple of other videos on my channel with other elm types). And unfortunately they are also getting sick over here 😞
Hallo!! Sehr Schöne Tische machst du da!! Respekt!! Mich würde interessieren ob sich die Platten ohne Längszarge durchbiegen nach einer gewissen Zeit? Beste Grüsse C.H.
Danke Christian 😁 Du meinst ob sich der Tisch der Länge nach biegt? Das hatte ich bis dato noch nie. Ich arbeite mit Harthölzern und in der Regel 4-6cm Dicke, das ist also stabil genug...
Wouldn’t it need some sort of locking mechanism? I imagine that kids just pull the extension off the table.
😂😂 It has a little knob, but yes, kids can easily remove it 😱
It would have been a much better video with voice over explaining the process instead of music.
