G'Day cobber, very useful video, saved for future reference. I didn't know these purpose-made wheel cutters existed until I saw your video. At $110, $131 and $143 for 40mm, 50mm and 60mm cutters respectively, I'd have to be cranking out lots of wheels to make it worth while, but It's good to know they exist (and are available in The Land Down Under!).
Thank you for a fantastic video. I have had one of these cutters from Carbatec NZ for about three years and I was not able to find out the correct speed to use. Now I know. Thanks. i like the idea of using the forstner bit to do the rear side of the wheel/ I also use the cutter on scraps of a product called Ecodeck rom Bunnings. It make beautiful wheels
This is the first video of yours that I have viewed. Liked & subbed :-D TYVM for presenting such a thorough video. I am new to woodworking, and I learned a whole lot. I will be binge-watching to catch up.
Thanks for making the video of this tool. I've never seen one before. I was thinking that i would attach something to the bottom plate so i could just push the wood against the backer piece and it would center the the wood that you are making the wheel out of. Then you would just have to line it up sideways. This was the first video i've seen of yours. Looking forward to seeing others.
Very cool. I always wondered how they made the wheels. Odd question: I have some wheels like that but I want to make them thinner to use them as escutcheons. I have about a dozen of them that I want to shave about 1/4 off of but I'm not sure how to go about it to get them all evenly trimmed & flat. I was thinking I could hold them in a dowel somehow, but not sure how to keep them straight. I have a table saw, a flooring cutting saw, & a handheld jig saw (but am not very coordinated). Any suggestions?
If I needed to do that I would do it with the table saw. I would secure them to a piece of scrap wood in a line with some dowel pieces and run them straight through the table saw at the thickness I want. Maybe not the safest thing to do but if you use your push sticks and keep your hands well claer it would work fine.
@@makestuffnow That's what I was thinking of doing, but I was trying to think of the best way to get them attached so they wouldn't come loose. I actually bought dowels.
If you blow the dust while cutting and wipe clean the bit after use, you should be able to get good enough results without having to do anything to the cutting edge. But you will see a noticeable difference in your finish, and how easy the drill press feels, if you use a strop first.
I'm not a seller, but I've read they are very hard to find in other countries. What I can tell you is that they cost from $100-140 depending on size, so shipping from Australia will only be a small part of the total cost anyway.
There are about half a dozen websites selling them if you search 'wooden toy cutter'. If you have trouble finding one, message me and I'll help you out.
It's an oil from a nut from a chinese tree. It is most commonly mixed with solvents and sometimes other stuff in mixtures sold as 'danish oil' or 'burnishing oil'. But, at least where I live, if you go to a specialist woodworking shop you can find it in pure unmixed form.
Good morning. I’ve been watching your videos, and I want to make wheels like you, but I live in France and I can’t find this kind of strawberry. If you could give me an address by your house so that I can’t get it. Thank you for your understanding. G.D.
Some good detail, particularly info on using the forstner bit - maybe easier starting off with the correct thickness in the first place. Sorry, but you are wasting your time using the leather strop! It will do nothing to sharpen your bit - maybe do a study on what a strop does!
Great attention to detail. I liked that you use natural, organic oils because that's what babies care about!
I liked the technical info on how the bit works and expectations too. Good info.

Question: is using the leather really that necessary?
If you blow the dust while cutting and wipe clean the bit after use, you should be able to get good enough results without having to do anything to the cutting edge.
But you will see a noticeable difference in your finish, and how easy the drill press feels, if you use a strop first.
I did it with the Woodglut plans.
