    Ahah! Indeed, freehanded that groove with the router. Would have never thought someone noticing it, it does look sloppy af 🤣

      Actually, the free-handed will have better adhesion than straight lines, for particular angles of dangles.

    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.

    • @PaulsGarage

      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!

  • @1495978707

    2:00 A problem with using grooves like that is that your wood will flex somewhat when the sand is packed

    • @PaulsGarage
      @PaulsGarage  ปีที่แล้ว

      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

    Dowel pins made out of metal would be also useful for locating the two parts together,

    • @PaulsGarage
      @PaulsGarage  ปีที่แล้ว

      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

    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 🤣.

    • @PaulsGarage
      @PaulsGarage  ปีที่แล้ว

      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

    • @dfross87
      @dfross87 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@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.

    • @PaulsGarage
      @PaulsGarage  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      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
