From recycled house stump too a decrative floating shelf
Hi guys
In this video, I turn an old house stump from a demolition job into either, a indoor wall mounted shelf or, a outside shelf. Redgum is very good outdoor timber hence the reason they were used for house stumps.
enjoy

Hi guys Just been playing around with the the new jointer/thicknesser and thought I'd share this juice groove pattern. I can't believe I spent all this time on it and didn't realise till after I'd finished it, that I hadn't sanded the top down enough. ah well lucky its not for a paying customer. lesson learnt for the next one.

I had a job to pile up some windblown trees. I come across 2 old posts in a burn pile that were there and thought I'd salvage them, Turning them into cutting boards and giving one to the client as a gift.

I could not bring myself to cut up a 125 x 125 post and thanks to this video, I know what to do with it! I'm in coastal NSW and fair bet our old hardwood is tallowwood.

    Fence posts are usually chemically treated timber…to protect them from damp…they’re seriously not fit for a food chopping board. Plus it could be full of all sorts of fungi etc along with the treatment chemicals.

    I was fine until the end when you turned it over. What's with all the splotches all over the wood? Unsanded residue from from your makeshift wood filler? And like others, I could think of many things to turn that wood into, but a cutting board ain't one of them. Personally, that piece had way too many cracks and voids to make it useful for food prep, unless it was purely decorative. And unless you had a metal detector that wasn't shown, sawing and planing that piece was very risky.

      Spoken like a true slave to your tools. Remember that your tools work for you, not the other way around. If you don't like the project that's perfectly fine, but if your tools limit you to what you want, that's bad. Besides what expensive tools did he use besides his planer? Sandpaper, saw blade, router bits, and more sandpaper--all consumable items.

  • @davidmayhall3719
    @davidmayhall3719 ปีที่แล้ว

    I can tell that you can cut wood with tools but your choice of wood is highly unsanitary since wood is porous and fungus grows Tru wood 🪵 and mold spores are to the core of this wood! This is worse that eating off of the ground! A wood cutting board made from good wood will contaminate your food with salmonella and germs from cuts from the knife blade leaving food particles in cuts ✂️ a wood cutting board is unsanitary and shouldn't be used for food preparation a plastic cutting Mat is far safer and can be bleached cleaning it far better than wood. Your choice of project is highly undesirable since you used toxic wood for a food prep item. Sir you can cut wood but you ate not a chef this cutting board will cause Gastric sickness I don't reccomend using this for food preperation!

You can easily ad or remove, even flip the 50 by 25 to give yourself a range of heights. Hope this helps 👍

    This turned out very nice. I love the "up-cycle" idea. The grain pattern is awesome.

The cracks give it all kinds of cool character, but also leave room for fungus growth. #subscribed!
