  • Hello again! In this video I show you how to make a super simple letter opener using only a utility knife, a hand saw, a piece of maple I found in someones trash, and a little patience.
    I made this as a Christmas gift for someone, and so can you!
    Here's the link to my Patreon. Help me out peeps!

    That was pretty cool! Mind telling me please what was that weird sanding block thing you used near the end? And also what kinds of sandpaper would be needed cause I have this really cheap-ass sandpaper that's so useless the wood sands off the sandpaper instead of the opposite!! I can't sand anything with it. Guess I just got ripped off

    • @BobbyDukeArts

    "Too cool for school" I love the concept! I'm currious why you didn't use the belt sander and the band saw? Instead you used a normal saw and you hand sanded the wood! Also you used a regular cutting blade to notch out the pieces! Just curious that's all, maybe you were showing the viewers that it's possible to make this fantastic art with the tools you have available to you.......although (lol) maybe you just wanted the challenge! Anyways, awesome episode, always looking forward to more hysterical antics and wonderful pieces of art! 🤗🇨🇦🤙
