    A few times in the past, I have used salt as an friction technique to keep glued pieces from slipping. I have never liked that because salt can be / is corrosive, and sandwiching salt between wood seems that, over time, would weaken the glue bond as the salt dissolves and / or attracts moisture into the wood (very slowly, but still…). I switched to a very light & sparse sprinkling of fine sand for these kinds of glue-ups. Sand will not dissolve, provides a better lock between two pieces of wood, and is inherently a neutral and would not, over time, deteriorate wood from the inside. And salt is less expensive than salt… By the way, this is a great idea, particularly using a noticeable colored wood as a visual clue.

    • @MakeThings
      @MakeThings  5 лет назад

      Thank you. A very sparse amount of salt is not problematic, in my opinion, and has been used for centuries. It’s an old trick.
      I would be far more skeptical about using sand that could damage my blade, but if it works for you, more power to ya.
      It’s an excellent way to put away forstner bits as it tells me exactly what I’m missing. I’m honestly surprised it’s never been done before as it is extremely useful.
      Thanks for the compliment.

    The video was great. I just want to thank you for three specific things: 1) The hilarious gold panning scene, 2) the salt idea - this really solves a serious problem of mine. I have been using masking tape to try and stabilize the pieces during clamping. 3) You are really meticulous with your work, the way you did those numbers shows a lot of care and thought.

      Hey Andrew! Some people scoff at the this method, but it’s simple. During a glue up two pieces of wood can gradually move very slowly. So slow that you don’t notice it till the next day and it’s ruined.
      Salt is all about friction. You could use sand or grit, but those are terrible if you plan on cutting after the glue up.
      Some of the bigger RUclipsrs have made fun of the method so I end up telling people my wood prefers sodium in their glue up.

      Hey thanks! My current videos do have music but it’s something you have to really listen for. Most of these older videos were made without any complaints, so I’ve tried to work with people a little by trimming it away.
      You really have to build one of these. Of all the things I’ve built, this is one of those few things that glows brightly in my shop. I NEVER lose my forestner bits now as I can see from a distance what I’m missing. Honestly can’t figure out why this idea hasn’t been used before.
      The attachment actually came with the press...and it’s kind of nice to have, but I never remember to use it haha
      As for wobbly, yes, not sure if it’s the bits or the press, but as long as I use a brad point bit I don’t seem to have any problems.

    I like your projects
    I have been watching a lot of youtubers in wood working to see what works and what doesn’t because I’m preparing to start a RUclips channel .
    I enjoy your channel and one thing I noticed that I saw with Steve Carmichael
    You did smile
    When Steve first started he didn’t smile
    If you go back and watch his early videos he never smile
    Them all of a sudden he was over the top smiling and you can also see his ratings go through the roof and his videos were just better .
    I want us all to do good .
    Check out Carmichael’s work shop and see for yourself
    Then try it !
    You can thank me when you see the results
    Hell you can send my the x-carve you’ll earn ....lol

    You lost me when you sprinkled salt on your glue joints. Bad practice that weakens the joint (per the makers of Titebond) just spread an even thin layer on the surfaces with an applicator and use proper clamping technique and you'll be fine. May not be as important for this application, but still a bad idea in general.

    • @MakeThings
      @MakeThings  5 лет назад +1

      I’ll have to agree to disagree. It’s a centuries old technique that has never failed me.
      ruclips.net/video/1Ai-IQvRDo4/видео.html
      Furthermore, it’s in titebond’s best interest to encourage people to not use anything other than their glue for liability reasons. While a few grains here and there is fine, there are some fools that will layer it on like they’re spackling drywall.

      Make Things I think what he’s saying is that it could have been done with basic pine or plywood, why the choice of woods or whatnot.
      But, quite frankly, it’s a silly question. People spend loads of money on products that are equally the same in terms of functionality as their cheaper counterparts. Why do they spend the money? Because they enjoy working with something that looks nice or feels good in their hands.
      Why do kings eat on silver plates instead of wood plates? Because they can and like it.

      @@MakeThings - Ok, could never keep a secret anyway. It may be I'm wrong but when you stamped the sizes on the buttons, they were the wrong way round when the storage was fitted on the wall. Of course, if you didn't glue them in until after you could still have turned them round. BTW in the UK the timber would probably cost more than the Forstner bits. Nice though.

    • @MakeThings

      I actually leave it standing with the bits holding the block up in the back, so in that way it is the right way. But I did goof on the 25mm. It should be before (after?) the 1”.
      Exotic timbers are pretty but they’re sore on the pocket books! Living in Indiana I’m surprised that some of the African wood can be cheaper than the wood that comes from South America!
