- How to make your own homemade wooden effect iPhone 4S case and Nexus 5 case. I demonstrate a really easy way to make some unique, cool looking smartphone cases by by gluing wood veneer (can be bought online) to the back of some really cheap plastic cases.

how to make a wooden phone smartphone android diy free homemade tricks tips diy easy woodworking projects project thiswoodwork alex harris iphone 4S case nexus 5 - แนวปฏิบัติและการใช้ชีวิต
That phone case looks great. I am right now lookig at the back of my laptop screen. Well, I think I will let my laptop be like it is.
the finishing oil looks terrific!!! outstanding work!!!! =)
(cheers from Brazil, just so you know) ; )
That's a great idea Alex, thanks for sharing it.
Instead of masking tape or clamps you could also use a food vacuum sealer, the plastic bags/ rolls used by the Food Saver are typically not big enough for many other woodworking projects but they would prob work good for this.
Brilliant !!!
Sounds like a great idea, I will have to get hold of some!
Cheers, Alex.
Hi! you're a great master, I admire your work, thanks that you are! you such works inspire other artists. I'm from Russia, more precisely from Yakutia. Well done! keep on and show people we are learning from these videos. thank you.
Thank you for sharing this, I just recently started making, designing phone cases, I love this idea. The first three I did was out of very thin wood, did some wood burning designs on them, they came out alright but was very difficult to do. Going to try this idea of yours, yours came out so beautiful again thank you.
Very cool looking case, Great vid Alex. Cheers
yay we can make designs with paint!
Awesome job brother. They both look great!
Definitely gonna do this sometime if I remember too
For the curved case, use a vacuum sealing device such as normally used for food preservation and 30 minute epoxy. The vacuum will pull the cover around the corners.
Looks really great!
TREMENDA IDEA AMIGO
Nice project. Thanks for sharing.
This looks like a project video done on Matt's Basement Workshop some time ago.
Wasn't aware of it until you mentioned it, I just had a look though. Haha!
I came across this idea well before Matt posted his own video, when someone sent me some images of their work and I thought it looked really cool.
Alex
ThisWoodwork After all nobody cares who came up with it first. I really love your channel btw ;)
looks great :)
Good project! Very nice :D
Excellent... I like it... Cheers...
thank you for idea
Man you have some skill. You should be on TV or something. I saw some of your videos they're quite creative.
brilliant vid, i might give that a go although the case for my nokia lumia is very curved so i have some reservations about the results :/
Very nice result, is there any chance of the finishing oil coming off on clothing?
The finishing oil will cure like most other wood finishes, so it shouldn't do. If you were concerned however, you could try something else, like varnish or lacquer.
Thanks for watching, Alex.
*****
If it doesn't cure you did something wrong. With the oil finish (it's actually an oil/wax mixture) I used on recent projects (a dining table for example) I had no problems at all. It can in any case take stuff hotter than you would be willing to touch (didn't try pans from the stove directly, obviously). If your mobile gets that hot, that's definitely not right.
The best thing is fixing scratches though. Just take a small rag, dab it in the oil, wipe the scratch and it's gone.
I've been making these and selling these for a while now (with no customer complaints) and have used one of these cases on my phone for a few months now and have had no problem withe linseed oil coming off.
COOL !
Some very nice photography in this video... Do you have a new camera? When taping surfaces around epoxy, try using brown packing tape instead of masking. You will find the epoxy less likely to adhere to it...
Hey! I can do this in my woodwork class
Would it be better to mask off the areas where you don't want adhesive applied?
Yes, good idea.
Try a wooden boomerang they work great
U r awesome :)
cool
nice
looks nice, i think i try it on a galaxy note 3
How to much did the case.
lovely//
Where is the best place to buy vainer?
I find the the internet is the easiest place myself. Some good deals come up on eBay from time to time.
Thanks for watching, Alex.
Please make wooden sunglasses! With different coloured wood.
Sounds awesome!
Have a look at palo wood from Barcelona, they make wooden glasses from recycled skateboard decks
My other galf is an optician, and has been looking to get hold of some hinges. This is going to be a future project on my channel, hopefully in time for summer.
I'm not sure if that's Walnut, i'm pretty sure that's Burl wood..
Dammit!!
i search verry long, how i can make my self wood handycase but ill never listen to veneer it haha :D
it is rly easyli :D
but i would like to lacker it, couse u can grind the sides and grind all of it with clear lacquer
Where are you living

ok, ok, you've inspired me because you did NOT do a pure wood case which can be quiet the challenge. Give me a couple weeks, I'll have something posted and show just what you've inspired.
2:33 should've used a real fone xS
Why does he look like James Franco?
Yeah, I want some of that vainer too. ..........Excuse me, what's vainer?
Veneer is really thin sheets of wood and can be bought easily online.
Alex
I believe I'm aware......What remains to be determined is the nature of this " vainer". Cheers
Your projects are great But i cant stand that monotone voice.....
this cover you can order in Aliexspres for 2 $ )))))))))))))))))))))))
CURCLE MINECRAFT

I think you need to take some time and go to inplix website to learn how to make it.
Too complicated
non e' fatto di legno!!! ce l'hai appiccicato sopra il legno!!!
Very creative and nice! And you are hella cute!
My adventure with woodworking started with Woodglut.
