- Flask design idea and clips stolen from @BlackBeardProjects His projects are awesome, by the way. you should go check him out if you haven't already. He makes some of the coolest stuff on TH-cam

Ahah! Indeed, freehanded that groove with the router. Would have never thought someone noticing it, it does look sloppy af 🤣
Thanks man, too kind!
Hugs from Italy
Hey If it works, it's a good idea! Thanks for letting me steal your design!
Actually, the free-handed will have better adhesion than straight lines, for particular angles of dangles.
"It's practically foolproof! ... I bet I could screw it up"
That's the Paul we know and love
It's a special skill I have
please never stop talking about "stuff". you give so much insight into the things you make, it really helps me out.
Thanks I appreciate it
Nice to see you back into the groove again! :) And yes, talk about that, I'm also always wondering.
Thanks! It's good to be making stuff again, my head is never in the right place if I haven't kept my hands busy
Love BlackBeard. Been following him for ages, and I actually got one of the tiny anvil keychains he made a while ago. It's always so fun when two creators I follow are aware of each other.
He's awesome. His projects are really well done and he's a super friendly guy too
Talking and explaining Paul, so us mere mortals understand, goooood!
TH-camrs "inspiring" without explaining, baaaaad!
Keep up the great work 😁
Thanks, will do!
How did I miss this one. Hey, this was great. Yeah, who doesn't like a good breakdown of clever problem solving?... ok, no one answer that... I like it. 😎
I appreciate the praises of Hickory wood.
I enjoy an intelligent analysis of designs that’s the only way you can improve upon them properly
Listening to another persons perspective only goes to reinforce good ideas and dispel the bad ones more efficiently
would love to see more of this !!!
Yes!. Go for it. Make something with it!
Definitely! Probably going to revisit vertical casting soon
More breakdowns of cool ideas you saw is something I would absolutely watch!
Sounds good! There are lots of good makers out there doing interesting things that get overshadowed by the awesome projects they are making
Yes, please describe what you are doing, just as you did here. I hate the ASMR videos where they don't talk, and then don't show enough of what they are doing so you can't figure it out, may as well not make a video.
Sounds good! i'll keep doing it. Some of those ASMR maker channels are pretty cool, but i wish they would explain more. I get that the no-talking videos have wider appeal (every language can understand silence) but I always want to know more!
2:00 A problem with using grooves like that is that your wood will flex somewhat when the sand is packed
yeah flex is an issue, but that's why i used hickory, the flanges, and the threaded rod. It's probably not something that can be solved perfectly, though
Regarding your question at the end of the video: Yes, absolutely. I am very interested in solutions and tricks like this.
No one talks about this stuff. One video about intricacies like this is worth about 10 videos of people just going through the process in a broad-strokes fashion.
Thank you! I've been debating about remaking several flasks that are old and well-burnt. Now I have a plan to follow!
Go for it!
It's been a good day so far. It stopped raining a while back and it's getting warmer. I have just watched a video by Myfordboy testing an electric bike, and a new video by you about making flasks. Now if I could win the lottery or get a girlfriend my life would be good. Sigh.
Lol you know, most lottery winners end up more miserable after a short period of joy. But the girlfriend I can't help you with
@@PaulsGarage Thank you. We have a saying that go's "money can't buy you happiness, but it can buy you a better quality of misery". I would settle for that. As for using hickory for a flask, I don't think we have it in the UK. Perhaps concrete would do.
7:00 hue hue! You said "Makes it ALMOST safe."
This is like when I say 'I'm mostly harmless."
Here, hold my beer...
lol "almost" safe is as good as it gets with liquid fire! 😂

Wax castings work the best
To hold the upper and lower pieces together, why not use small metal latches like the ones on rugged boxes etc. ?
Don´t need to screw anything and they don´t wear out as quick
It just might work! 😂 I’m ready to see some molten aluminum making a lathe bed.
Me too! I'm going to use Zamak za12. Just got the ingots 2 days ago
I prefer the detailed look at things... I'm a dolt and unless I have a good amount of detail for how to make/do things... well... let's just say "failure is more than an option" ;) So thanks for the details here :)
You and me both! I'll do more of this then
Dowel pins made out of metal would be also useful for locating the two parts together,
The screws in the side flanges do that. If I leave them sticking out the bottom they fall I to the holes in the lower flange in the same spot every time. One benefit of this hardwood, it won't accidentally thread a new hole, it only goes into the pre drilled hole
Talk about the things. All the things.
If you want it heavier, make it out of Osage orange. But hickory is plenty strong without breaking your back
Osage is pretty awesome! It's denser yeah but it actually has less bending resistance than hickory. Fun fact from my longbow making days long ago lol
More trickery insights please
You got it!
Hey Paul! Can't wait to see this in action! I did notice one thing. You supported the cope from flexing, what about the drag?
Hi man! Good to see you! I can't wait to give it a shot but I'm not looking forward to moving it haha!
Yes definitely support the cope and drag both with the rod. I only showed doing one on camera because I had a timeline to stick to lol
@@PaulsGarage You mean Past-You forgot to get the footage 😛.
Past me can't manage time properly 😂
Maybe a video showing these in use would be good?
Gingery lathe bed coming right up 👍. That will be horizontal, though. I have some sword patterns around here too, maybe I'll do one of those in the vertical configuration.
I miss the snark scroll at the end.
yeah those were fun to write. The analytics said hardly anybody watched them though 😭
Interesting idea having the sand retaining/strengthening ridges recessed into the side of the flasks, rather than proud. Means the strengthening ridges themselves are made of sand, not wood (or whatever material you choose to make your flasks from). Also, I note you have two such ridges (top and bottom) per flask; BlackBeard only has the one central (and wobbly) ridge.
Apologies if all the highly technical jargon confuses anybody 🤣.
The cut in ridges are exactly like you say, they mean I don't need wood protruding into the flask and taking up space. I don't know if two grooves are necessary but it seemed like a good idea? Not sure
@@PaulsGarage I suspect wooden supports would be stronger than rammed sand, though.
Two rudges are definitely a good idea. A single central strengthening ridge means that only half the sand is supported, the other half is effectively hanging from it. And we all know how strong sand is in tension.
I'm not sure which works better. I've heard people say both. What's clear is that no supports is clearly the worst option
Router, eh? (Am cutting dados for a bookcase right now.)
Router is probably the fastest way. I have a router around here I just hate using it
Gingery lathe bed casting time?
Soon! I want to try casting a few other things in zamak first to get a feel for it before doing the giant lathe bed
I'm a real Lord of the Rings fan, I love it when they use the 'Force'. Too bad they didn't call it the 'pressure'.
When Dumbledore used the force to beat Sauron, best scene in lord of the rings
@@PaulsGarage yes, but my favorite scene / episode is when they go back into the past and pick up whales to talk to an old satellite.
