Love the video, very soothing to watch. Also, I really enjoy watching you work. The way you approach a project is very different from how I would, which is very refreshing to watch. I love seeing how different talented craftsfolk, such as yourself, work through a project. And love the improvization of yours with the flocking, i.e., no applicator or color, NO PROBLEM. :D
Very nice project and like the choice of wood used. However during the video I was waiting for a Minecraft Zombie to come out and scare me. Thank you for the idea and will definately use this.
Nice gift, well executed! You can tell your "family" I, a stranger on the Internets, am a bit miffed at being brushed aside, along with the Split Top Roubo, for "family"!!! ;-) Happy Birthday, BIL! And, many more!
Trust me, I would have *much* rather worked on my bench. There were a few times where I had it setup where I was able to use it (like the dominoing) and it was a dream to use, if not just a bit wobbly :(
I do know what you mean, Paul....most of my absences from the shop are "family" related, in one way or another. Soon enough, though, your Split Top Roubo will be a reality, and you'll have a happy family at the same time. Btw, I'm a bit "wobbly", am I not put together right? ;-)
nice project, I would have designed it with some walnut spline joints to really dress it up and do the pull out of walnut too. But that's me. Nice job.
G'day Paul, nice work & easy listening music to accompany it, just curious those jointer guards look irritating mate & make me think that the manufacturer might think we are all oblivious to the cutter head possibly being something to be aware of, Sawstop technology is fantastic but other machining safety techniques perhaps in instructions can help for being aware of hazards, anyhow enough of my blah blah mate because you do great work on this channel 👍🏻🇦🇺👍🏻
European vs American style guards for the jointer. The American style is the 'mutton chop' which is spring loaded, while Euro style is the adjustable thingie thing. The "advantage" of the Euro style is that its pretty much impossible to put your hands over the cutter head, so if something slipped/broke, its really unlikely of any sort of injury. The American style is much more convenient, but technically can be more dangerous. Does it result in more injuries? No idea! I think the problem with any safety gear is no matter how good a safety invention is, somebody will always invent a better idiot. I've seen so many people just flat out remove *all* safety guards on jointers, then funnily enough over in r/woodworking half a dozen jointer related "short finger" xrays pop up! End of the day, I don't think there are any combo machines with the mutton chop style. Per "setup" (as I typically will batch out one operation at a time) it requires a few seconds to setup, but thats about it.
I have a video on this! th-cam.com/video/JVeBM-jmHGU/w-d-xo.html In summary though, this was shot all on a 750D, using a 18-35mm & 50mm f1.8 lens. Maybe two scenes used the 105mm macro (didn't use the macro feature, but its a nice lens if I can get the tripod back far enough)
The store I bought the flocking from (the only one in drivable distance) doesn't sell the adhesive because they don't seem to "believe" in it. I used red+purple acrylic paint to get a similar tone (though lighter) and the white was just some clear drying PVA.
I've got a box joint jig, but honestly didn't have the time to do anything but set-and-forget dominoes. I likely won't ever get a Gifkin jig, its too dang expensive (the fully kitted out version isn't far off the price of a domino!) and I haven't been overly impressed by the demos I've seen at the woodwork shows.
I bought just the basic kit when I first started getting interested in woodworking but I have to agree the full vindaloo is way too much. I'm saving to buy a sawstop contractor the same as yours for christmas :-) and once I have that a box jig will be first on my list of things to make. Keep up the great videos
Not on short notice, the wife could only find some very thick psuedo-suede/felt, and that didn't work out (took too long to dry, then didn't fit right because of the folding, etc)
Flocking was a very late change - originally the wife wanted leather, which she couldn't find, then it switched to suede. Putting suede in the drawer just wasn't going to work, so I glued up some nice hardwood panels rather than plywood. Then it turned out the suede was too thick, and we had to go to flocking (which I suggested to her originally!). By then I was too cranky to flock the drawers ;)
Paul Jenkins oh man all those changes yea id be too.well,,it looks good with out em..i was just introduced to flocking (band saw boxes) and i love it.so much better and cheaper than suede in my atea anyway..i hope u and yours have. Good night
Flock applicator... A friend suggested a tube of Pringle's and a tube of 'Woolies' home brand crisps. Wollies being a bit smaller tube, fits inside the Pringle tube. Punch some holes in the smaller tube base and Vuola An applicator for less than half the price of CARB-TEC ... and Calories to munch on while you wait for the flock to dry ;0
Mmm, this is a good excuse to go back and visit some friends in Oz; gotta grab a tube of Woolies' crisps! And maybe pick up one of those tail vises ;-)
Enjoyed the video and woodworking - nice project and nicely done! However, did not care for the discordant piano music so I muted the sound while I watched.
I stoped watching after I realized there was no explanation of what the hell he was doing

Great project, really nice touch with the flocking :) It was great to see the workbench in action :) looking forward to more :D

Perhaps you are, but you could just claim it gives you a unique varying perspective on the world as you topple over? ;)
Ah, perspective; the key to happiness in all of life, wobbly or no :-) Keep the sawdust flying, sir!
My head stopped hurting a bit. Thank you.
Loved the video and the project Paul. great job! Can't wait to see the next one.
I looked on the website for the plans but didn't find them, are plans available?
No plans for this one, sorry
@The Wood Knight okay thanks anyways. It’s a great design. I will do my best to recreate it.
Looks like you have similar issues to me using flicking, never seem to get good coverage
nice project, I would have designed it with some walnut spline joints to really dress it up and do the pull out of walnut too. But that's me. Nice job.
very nice Paul, I really like this video edit!
Nice! Very nice!
Thanks David
That's a beautiful valet box. Excellent video.
Beautiful build and an amazing edit.

this gives me a great idea, except incorporating a charge lead for the phone. i know what my first project will be next time i get a day off! =)
what is your camera set up, very nice shots.
I have a video on this! th-cam.com/video/JVeBM-jmHGU/w-d-xo.html In summary though, this was shot all on a 750D, using a 18-35mm & 50mm f1.8 lens. Maybe two scenes used the 105mm macro (didn't use the macro feature, but its a nice lens if I can get the tripod back far enough)
You the man. Very professional set up.
Music sounded like it was from Dexter... had to turn it up to find out haha
cool! did you flock it with acrylic paints?
The store I bought the flocking from (the only one in drivable distance) doesn't sell the adhesive because they don't seem to "believe" in it. I used red+purple acrylic paint to get a similar tone (though lighter) and the white was just some clear drying PVA.
Very well done!
cool design Paul.
another great video Paul. As you're an Aussie I was waiting for you to pull out the Gifkin jig and use dovetails instead of dominoes :-)

You crafty flocker! :P
Cool vid man. No luck finding leather for the boxes?
Not on short notice, the wife could only find some very thick psuedo-suede/felt, and that didn't work out (took too long to dry, then didn't fit right because of the folding, etc)
nice one paul! no flock in the drawers? or was it overkill? either way looks great love the design!🍻

Great job. Like!
I think I enjoyed the music more than the project!...Sorry not sorry!
I like the project. I'm not so fond of videos with no narration - but we all have our preferences.
Be well.
Three spots? Where does my gun go?
nice as always!

Having a justifiable excuse to eat two tubes of chips sounds like a pretty good idea :o
Mmm, this is a good excuse to go back and visit some friends in Oz; gotta grab a tube of Woolies' crisps! And maybe pick up one of those tail vises ;-)
leave the music out next time bit overbearing
+steve bruford no
steve bruford better the usual head banging hard rock at 150 decibels on some of these videos!
Very nice the music was a treat as was Paul’s presentation
As always, very nice work although I do miss the Australian accent.
Proof, if it were needed, that people can create something marvellous and at the same time they can create something hideous.
+Andy P gee thanks.
Enjoyed the video and woodworking - nice project and nicely done! However, did not care for the discordant piano music so I muted the sound while I watched.
Jez, that errie music. Had to stop watching, thought maybe you sawed off your hand!!
Love the piano
you seriously have too much time on your hands, too much tools, to little common sense ! Find another hobby ffs !
What exactly did I do that had 'too little common sense'?
you over do everything ! Cutting a less than one inch stick with a miter sled ! FFS use a hand saw ! And all the rest is like this too !
You sound very angry. I hope you get the help you need.
And vice versa, I hope you will gain a brain surgery ASAP !
