  • This was not really what I had planned to put out this week but it was a project of need! Was cleaning up the garage and had enough of my current extension cord storage....came up with a solution, check it out!
    This build also happens to be out of scrap which was a challenge put out to us woodworking RUclipsrs this week, make something from our scrap bin!
    Have a free 1:1 template on my website that you can print and use to cut out your own. I printed this used a purchased program from Matthias Wandel called BigPrint, its epic. You should get out his channel, he has really good content.

    I should have read my Kreg instruction booklet...I didn't know there were songs in there! I thought I saw some little purple feet hanging out with you. Thanks for providing the plan. These would also great for musicians and mic/speaker cables. You have impeccable timing Tyler! ;)

      Steve Carmichael Apparently Kreg has some good tunes if you look close! Thanks for sharing Steve.

    Great project! Can't tell you how many times I've thrown cable across the shop in a rage! Loved the Kreg Jig Hymn Book too! Awesome.

      Thanks April Wilkerson She LOVES to go in the workshop with me, is sad when I kick her out when I use the "dusty" tools. Have to make a huge batch of these for our Christmas lights, gonna use carpet tape, stack em up and go to town!

    Great job, Tyler. I've been wanting to try out BigPrint. Looks like it worked well for you.

    • @DIYTyler
      @DIYTyler  10 лет назад

      CMR Woodworks It is super handy. Have used it for several projects now, definitely worth it.

  • @SkullyWoodMetal
    @SkullyWoodMetal 10 лет назад

    Good project, I could use a few myself. It really is not safe to wrap an extension cord around your arm if it is plugged in.

    • @DIYTyler
      @DIYTyler  10 лет назад

      Skully Wood & Metal It sure is handy, going to make myself some more!

  • @steveschmor8674
    @steveschmor8674 9 лет назад

    Now that you have one you can use it with a router and pattern bit and blast them off quick and easy.

    • @DIYTyler
      @DIYTyler  9 лет назад

      Steve Schmor For sure....or blast them out on the X-Carve CNC that is on the way, but I understand that everybody doesn't have one of those sitting around. Wound up my cord using this two days ago and its great, need some more!

    • @steveschmor8674
      @steveschmor8674 9 лет назад

      I wish I had a CNC. A manual one is in the works.

    • @DIYTyler
      @DIYTyler  9 лет назад

      Steve Schmor Certainly more to be proud of in a Manual one!

      I don't have a video but if you look up Jay Bates on youtube he has a series of videos to get you started. It's a program called sketchup and it't free.
