Not only are you a detail-oriented craftsman, you also have a twisted sense of humor... which is awesome. How does one break a router bit? Also, while hand tool work is awesome and useful to know, you gotta consider that time is key when doing commission work, so not everything can be Roy Underhill style.
@@FortressFineWoodworks It does, and practice makes it easier... two options - you look like you're trying to use just your arms or mainly your arms, so I'd say try leaning your whole body into the planing, or use a pull stroke instead of the usual push.
Great job! this is my new favorite wood working channel :D I can totally relate as well when you learned to weld, exact same thing happened to me! :D keep it up!
That‘s probably the most deserved sub recently. I‘m about to start woodworking myself and build my boys a built-in bunk bed. Your videos are an inspiration. And i like your sense for humor as well
Awesome job to make cleaner welds after grinding. Angle your cuts towards the inside of the metal rod. /] outer/viewable part of the project being the bracket.
Yes, there are tubes designed for running low voltage wires through, going through the wall from the computer to the monitor. Then outlets are located by any item that needs direct power.
Really great work on this project. I have done similar work in the past and rather than cutting individual strips for the slatted wall I opted to keep the panel together and cut relief lines in the material (basically cutting small dados to give the impression of slats). Once you apply paint its impossible to tell the difference and it saves the effort of having to afix the strips to a backer panel.
@@FortressFineWoodworks one of the panels we made was in black. We did set the nozzle specifically for the recesses. Once they were painted we reset the nozzle and proceeded with spraying as usual. We did also do several panels in prefinished maple that had finer grooves. The shadow line from the grooves was perfect for the effect.
Great job! From a fellow woodworking business owner 👏 It’s always fun to see someone’s process! Also congratulations on taking the step to make a great RUclips video.
Wow! What a great video. So nicely done. Great story telling. The welding piece was funny as hell. And to boot...the project is fantastic. Do you have a spray finish video? What spray system do you use? Love your work, young man.
My only spray finish video as of now is my conversion varnish shootout video. This doesn't go into detail about how to spray though. I use an apollo A7700gt spray gun (that is worth the 400! Trust me) and an earlex prayport turbine. I like turbines because they offer more air at less psi.
Using Moisture resistant mdf is a good start. It's slightly more sealed so it paints nicely. For this GF black poly, I didn't need to prime. I sprayed one coat, then sanded 4 hours later with 320 grit, repeated this process again, then sprayed one last even coat. I use a high solids tip in my apollo atomizer gun but this stuff would probably spray nicely out of a cheaper gun.

The welding 😂 Thank you for sharing. We can all relate
That was quite a fun one to learn! Thanks!
Hahahaha great opening comment! I was going to say it’s always a hot day in Ft Worth lol
Haha good thing it's not Ft. Worth. Thanks for watching!
FYI there are carbide blades for cutting steel. See DeWalt for the blade
So true. I figured the carbide on my blade would be decent enough and it was. Thanks!

Haha thanks. Router bits break when they are strained too much.
Hand tool work really takes strength

Those are great tips, I'm just a wimp with some tools

That's great to hear! I'm glad you are enjoying it and relating! Thanks for watching.
My new favorite as well.

I'm glad you like them. Thanks for watching!
Hmmm, would've purchased a MIG welder to start and to weld that thin material.
I agree, a mig was just too expensive for the budget though
Man, you’re good.
Well thank you! You are also amazing for watching!
Good job !!! And beautiful « dogue de Bordeaux » !!!
Thank you very much! Thanks for watching!
Probably been said but oak and metal dust equals black hands. The tannins in the oak react with iron. Could be the reason.
That may be the reason. Thank you!
Great build and great video!
Thank you!
Dude the production quality is down right professional. Your videos are just as good as your woodworking!
Thanks! Definitely trying my best to get better. As always, thanks for watching!!!
Ok... I just subscribed a little while a go and just got to this video. You scared the HELL out of me @:21:27! Geezus. Yeah, my name is also Cory.
Haha that would be alarming having me call you by name
Thoroughly enjoyed watching this whole video! Perfect amount of humor sprinkled in with beautiful craftsmanship. Can’t wait for the next one!
Hopefully my humor isn't too wild!
Excellent work
Thank you!

Thanks for the tips!
So stylish and functional, your client must be thrilled! Your craftsmanship truly adds art and purpose to any space.
They are very happy! Thank You
Beautiful videos man, glad ive discovered u
I'm glad you did too. Thanks for watching!
What, if any, cable management or wiring runs were included in the design?

Damn, see a huge channel in the future, love the quality & info of the video 👍!
That's a dang good compliment. I appreciate your views more than you know. Thanks for watching!
Your videos are the best. Very detailed ! Great work too
Thanks Kevin. I appreciate you as always

Did you have to hand paint each groove? I feel like spraying wouldn't get in every groove well enough. Thanks for your input

i love it!
Thanks for sharing!
Haha! “Because this is my first time” voice
Innocent and learning the process!

The cup I use for my gun is the 3M PPS 2.0 system. It has liners that keep the cup clean and keep air pockets out of the finish.
Oak contain "tanin" it's kind of a stain when you put water in it
Thanks for that info!
Hey just curious about where you get your metal emblems made. Thinking about getting some for guitar headstock branding.
I get them from coinsforanything.com. Consider subscribing! Thanks for watching!
Cool, thanks
Awesome build and detailed video. Quick question what was your process with painting the MDF black. It looks really good.
Using Moisture resistant mdf is a good start. It's slightly more sealed so it paints nicely. For this GF black poly, I didn't need to prime. I sprayed one coat, then sanded 4 hours later with 320 grit, repeated this process again, then sprayed one last even coat.
I use a high solids tip in my apollo atomizer gun but this stuff would probably spray nicely out of a cheaper gun.
For those of you that have never had your rod get stuck, let me tell, the struggle is real!
Good.... or Bad problem to have? To each their own. Thanks for watching!
