When I ocasionally use cutting fluid I end up wasting some drops as I use it directly from the flask. To avoid that I made this container to apply it with a brush. Less cutting fluid wasted. #metalworking #DIY #Upcycling

In this video I make a quick (made in less than one hour), simple but effective tube notcher for small tubing (10 mm) and for a drill press. You can always use a milling machine (if you have one) or files (which can be tedious to use). While not perfect, for a first iteration it allows perfect square notching. The next step will be to modify it to notch at a certain angle. Stay safe in the work...

In this video I make a stainless steel rack for my gravel bike. This is meant to carry low weights and to avoid the handlebar bag from rubbing with the front wheel on bikepacking trips.

EN \\ In this video I make a set of marking gauges for woodworking. Olive wood (Olea Europaea L.) and padauk were selected for the handles, creating an interesting contrast. A fun project done in my spare time to develop some woodworking and woodturning skills. These came out better than I expected and will definitely be used in some future dovetail-related projects.

A few months ago I bought this little cute Stanley Nº. 100 1/2 block plane "by accident" when I was buying a Stanley Nº. 5 for my beginner woodworking projects. In this video I show it in detail and perform a "restoration" just to remove most of the oxidation and to put an edge on the blade. #HandplaneRestoration #Woodworking

EN \\ In this video I show how I made a simple DIY JIG or guide for letter punches that allow stamping uniform and adjustable spacing between letters out of some metal scrap. The end result is quite good from what I was expecting and it will certainly come handy in future projects (metalworking, woodworking, etc.).
