DOUBLE-SIDED TAPE or STICKY PUTTY to test fit before securing the screws.
“Don’t need to buy some super fancy tool to get the job done” says the guy with all the Festool stuff ….😂
I put clear shipping tape on the wood, then squirt the hot glue on that. I also fold over the end of the tape, so there's a tab to pull for removal.
I do that any time I know I'll be removing any kind of tape.
Boards too long? How about opening the garage door ???
If I recall, the garage is at his apartment complex so traffic would be an issue.
My thought too. Ideally, move the saw forward to have enough room behind it so wood won't hit the back wall, and open the garage door so you have room in front.
It would have to be pretty heavy traffic to not find plenty of time to stick a board out the door for a minute or less. And most garages have a drive area that you turn into to get to your garage. They don't butt right onto the street. I suspect the traffic issue would be minimal.
Other things to consider:
Temperature change
Weather currently in progress
Lighting
Sound
I don’t think it’s as simple as we would hope.
@@GaryStewart2020 That would not have any significant effect if you only opened the door when you needed it open (less than a minute for one board, a few minutes for several), and did not plan to do this if it was raining.
I was just about to stick up for Bourbon when he popped on screen lol. Nice
Same!
Same 😂
A little denatured alcohol will help release the hot glue from the wood. I find this helps with minimizing any tear out during removal
I see that on paintless dent repairs (for cars) all the time.
Came here to say (well, ask) the same thing - on smooth surfaces I'd use Isopropyl Alchohol (or Isopropanol, depending on where you are) and I assume the same would work on wood.. or does the alcohol affect the wood itself?
Lots of good techniques in there Mr. Spencley. Keep the good stuff coming.
If you spray some denatured alcohol on the hot glue it makes it release easier in many cases.
Almost any type of alcohol will do.
I often use hot melt glue to mount woodturning blanks. When I am done turning, I spray some denatured alcohol (99%) on the glue, let it sit for a moment, and then I peel the glue off with a putty knife. The alcohol evaporates quickly, does not leave a residue, and does not raise the wood grain. ✔✔✔
Also, acetone or denatured alcohol will clean up wet epoxy "smears" -- as will white vinegar. Scrape off the excess epoxy and wipe up the remainder with one of these solvents and a clean cloth.
BTW: A Stanley #80 cabinet scraper works well for removing glue and epoxy -- and it is easier on the hands than a card scraper.
Or just use acrylic decorators caulk instead of hot glue.
I've never tried this. How strong is it and how easy is it to remove?@@andrewmccann6311
Another one is using compressed air upside-down to freeze the hot glue and it pops right up. 7:48
Wow! The end result looked awesome! You worked hard on this and it shows. Great job and thank you for sharing your experience.
I always enjoy your videos, they are true to how some of us struggle in small workshops with limited equipment yet achieve great results. keep up the great work!!
Wow, that is one beautiful project. The only issue I can see with it, is when you open the doors up you are going to be constantly down on your knees to put stuff into those nicely made compartments, because the doors are going to completely block your view being the cabinet is mounted so low to the floor. I think I would have opted to have those doors swing down.
Well, you're a young guy and maybe you won't be accessing those compartments too often.
Best regards, Ted Long Island, NY
Exactly what I was thinking.
Or choose drawers, even more convenient...
Saw you video on what Instagram did, awesome attitude, good videos, this is my third video of yours I’m watching. Keep pushing forward, be stubborn, will your way through it, God bless you.
Yeah, I got me one of those battery adapters. I've got nothing but milwaukee tools and batteries. But then I saw a Dewalt hammer drill (normally $250) on sale for $80. And I needed a hammer drill. But I refuse to have to buy a bunch of different batteries for different brands of tools. But with that battery adapter, it's not an issue. And it totally works like a champ! Thank you for showing that!
Just FYI, don't use the adapter to charge the batteries on a different brand charger. It will destroy the battery and not hold a charge anymore. They come with a warning about it, but I was ignorant and had to try it myself...😢
I'm amazed by the amount your able to do in that workspace. When you move to a large shop at some point the sky will be the limit. Great work. Care to share your fav local supplier for rough lumber? Im on the sw side of Cbus. Keep it up !
Wow! Well produced full course on modern woodworking techniques. Subscribed.
Getting the hot glue up: Try a paint scraper. Pull type. It’s like a card scraper. Blade is four sided. Easily rotated and sharpened.
If you aren't going to open the garage door to be out of your way, then stop complaining about it.
It's actually a portal to the twilight zone.
Great video! Lots of good techniques and cameos. Keep up the great work.
Great job!! That turned out amazing 😍😍😍. Love all the tips and cameos!
Wowza! This is an excellent video. Fantastic job.
For the kreg hinge jig, I always clamp my shop vac hose close while I drill out the recess. Works perfectly.
I would recommend getting the Accuburr burnisher to sharpen your scrapers. Easy to use and works perfectly.
after seeing half a dozen Festool tools, seeing the $10 HF Warrior heat gun made me smile. Does Festool not sell a $1000 version?
That turned out beautiful. Thank you.
Thanks for the insight on a beautiful-looking floating shelf, great job!
Great job on the cabinet! Love those dovetails too - they're tricky.
This was very interesting, Thanks for sharing it.
your a great inspiration to all of us who have small spaces. who thank we cant do big projects. love the channel
Why is it that I can only thumbs up this video the once?
Bro!!! Brilliant piece, and I really love the cameos. Haha.
Thank you for sharing your creative journey with the rest of us.
Nice! I have been kicking around some ideas for TV stand, or a Media Console as you refer to yours. I like it! I'm watching your video right around dinner time, think I'll head down to McDowells and get some of their famous Fresh Fries....see you on the next one!
11:8 Best trick of my life when making lines. After making a point with a pen, keep pen in point and grab the square and move it toward the pen. That way you make a line on the point instead of square+pen messing with your alignment.
Ive waited SOOO long to see this video. Finallyyyyyy!
Really good and in depth video, really nice cabinet. Just seems a bit awkward to open the panel from the bottom of the cabinet is so low to the ground
Great job!
What about putting some masking tape around the knot holes, then putting the hot glue dam on top of the tape, should peel off nicely?
An interesting thought for an epoxy dam - use a bowling ball plug dam. People plug their bowling balls with epoxy to redrill them all the time. To keep the resin in without spilling all over, companies make these plug dams that adhere to the surface of the ball and they just peel up when done. They come in ovals or circles and a bunch of different sizes. Just look up bowling plug dam and voila.
First thing I thought of when you mentioned "your patented hip thrust" was Jason from Bourbon Moth and a few seconds later he shows up. Gotta love the woodworking creators community. Love your videos, keep up the good work!!
Same 😂- Though he was bout ta steal the “domino hip thrust”-
Fastest edge joining alignment I've used is splines. Set up a router with a slot cutter and plane your scrap pieces to be the spine material. Have a wide variety of edge joining options, biscuit joiner( permanently retired), Domino (mostly collects dust), edge to edge, etc... splining is the fastest and most precise.
Looks great!
Outstanding. Thank You
The chapter headings 🤣🤣 Does anyone else come here just for the ASMR voiceover? No? Just me? Oh.
Heating the cured epoxy and hot glue up again with a heat gun would make it a lot easier to chisel off
Great job as usual.
6:50pm, I’ve been looking for 2.8mm white lead that writes on walnut and haven’t found any. Would you share what you are using, it appears to work well.
A few things to help out.
- Hot glue releases fairly easily using denatured alcohol. ISA works too, but not quite as well.
- Sharpening a card scraper is really no big deal. Once you get the hang of it, you can do it in about 5 minutes or less. I LOVE using a card scraper. If done right, no sanding needed after. File off old bevel while card scraper is held in a clamp. Next, put card scraper on a known flat surface, I use a chunk of granite, and use hardened steel rod to draw out the sharpened edge. Then use the same rod to ease the sharp edge over into a bur. It literally takes a few minutes.
Why not cut your boards to rough length before jointing, gluing, etc.? You could have planed them to thickness as well after rough cutting to length, saving you that added expense.
The circuit breaker popping is because your tablesaw using a 20 amp motor, which is why the plug wasn't the standard 15 amp plug. You're using a 20amp to 15amp adapter, but your wire and circuits are still only 15amp. Add in that your dust collector and lights are also maybe on the same circuit and overloads are inevitable.
Try isopropyl alcohol to release the hot glue. It worked great on solid surface coutertop, but I haven't tried it on wood yet.
When the hand-tool bug gets you those HF chisels will become your beater set so your good set stays nice.
Haha 9:10 blue tape over the left window on your fence. Mine looks exactly the same after I cut a board two inches too narrow. One of my biggest complaints with the Harvey fence.
Another nice video… I looked thru / at several of your links and (spot) listened to your video a couple times and I am still trying to figure out what “hard wax finish” you are using. I never seen a ‘mix it up’ version. What brand are you using?
After magnifying the TH-cam video as much as, I could the label on the can looked like "Desting," however an internet machine search showed this was (likely) "Vesting:" the "V" on the can looked like a "D"-another weird font. So, this appears to be more like a Rubio MonoCoat product: a decent, but spendy finish. Vesting also has very expensive UV light device to "instantly" cure the finish, rather than wait hours-days for it to harden. Or one can do it the old fashioned way, like Spencely. What is surprising is that it looks rather thick when it was applied, but it is a "sprayable" product. However, Spencely's orbital sander technique works well.
Great job Eric, I really enjoyed the video! You should file a patent on those Fren... I mean Freedom Cleats!
He can't patent them, they've been around for ages.
@@johnnylightning1491what do you mean? I’ve never heard of freedom cleats! He needs to hurry and file a patent before some nondescript baguette eating nation beats him to the punch!
@@johnnylightning1491it was satire
This was a great video again!!
When glueing up the edges, I always rotate the grain on every board to prevent potential bow. One board will have a (smile😊) direction at each end, and the next one should have a (frown ☹️) direction. I learned this from my father who built a chair for Henry Kissinger, so I thought he might have a point.
Are you not allowed to open the garage door when you're planing? I don't actually need to, but I usually do just so the whole neighborhood can bask in the sounds.
Fantastic video, thanks for sharing
To get the hot glue off, just use a heat gun, then when it’s warm, just use a razor blade at a super shallow angle and the glue pops off.
saying "thanks for the tip" after talking about hip thrusting techniques dials the innuendo levels to 9000 hahaha
Try putting down blue tape and then hot glue over top of the blue tape. Now you peel up the blue tape off of the wood and not the hot glue. This will work for a deep poor resin that doesn't get super hot like the fast set resin does... So your mileage may vary.
I have the same problems with having enough power to keep the breaker on. I cheated and just setup a permanent power cord running from a 220 outlet on my house, out to my garage.
Freedom cleat!! Hahaha!! 🤣🤣😂😂
I would say, end grain to end grain on your miters the dominos are in fact adding lots of strength by converting those into side grain to side grain glue-ups.
Try isopropyl alcohol to remove hot glue. I can't say if it works on wood but it definitely works on other surfaces.
Absolutely beautiful and love all the details of how you built this. However, < incoming! >I gotta say that it is odd to me that the cabinet doors are basically at knee height and you made them open up instead of down - seems very awkward to me.
I read somewhere that 84% of the glue used by DYIs is either squeezed out or just sits inside a loose mortice. Don't worry about glue starvation. The biggest cause of that is clamping too tightly. That's a whole 'nother topic that gets into the weeds. Worth the journey.
For the freedom cleats it's not a bad idea to also put a keyhole on the left and right side of your cabinet so that you can have a locking bar shoved in. This way it slides in underneath the part that's attached to the wall and prevents the cabinet from being lifted upward and just popping off the wall.
I have to give a thumbs up to woodworkers who dare to post their work, because of course it invites all sorts of endless backseat driving comments from the Peanut Gallery. I enjoy wood projects but am certainly no expert, so I always learn something from videos like this. Thanks!
we used to use about 30 degrees. Another thing we did was to plane off the sharp tip just in case any debris fell into the wall cleat.
Almost triggered by patented hip thrust. Don't mess with mothman😂
You can use plasticine modelling clay to make a dam. it's easy to apply, just roll it out and then it comes off really easily. You can also reuse most of it so it's economical too.
What brand finish do you recommend in the hard wax oil?
What happened to the battery power source you said could eliminate your power and breaker issues?
When you are ready to remove the hot glue try applying some isopropyl alcohol along the edges of the glue. It will slow loosen the glue and wick under it. You may need to apply more alcohol.
I bought the Dewalt palm router..buy the plunge base and it is even better
for filling the holes I was thinking put the packing tape down cut the tape 1/2 around the defects then put the hot glue on top of the packing tape.
I would color the epoxy to match the surrounding wood, not black.
I confirm. that denatured alcohol takes the hot glue off in a breeze.
Tip for getting the hot glue off easier. Take an old putty knife, the wider ones are better because they are a bit flimsier and bend easier. Take something and put a bit of a knife edge on the putty knife, not super sharp but enough. Then if you have a leather strop hone it a bit then use that to get the glue up. Its wide enough it shouldn't dig into the wood. I've used this trick a few times to get different substances off of projects I didn't want to tear up. The one I'm using is the 6 inch wide I had left over from remodeling my house when I bought it.
Looks great
Hi, nice work you are doing there!
Did you try with plasticine instead of hot glue to build those dams?
Аbout the automatic fuse disconnection - install a fuse in your workshop and it will trip when there is an overload from the tools and you will be able to turn it on when it happens again. And you can also try to install soft start on the tools with high current consumption at startup
Good luck
Nice hot glue trick. Is it maybe an idea to put tape in-between the glue and the wood? So that you don't have that brittle glue to remove because it's stuck on more structured tape. I'm curious if that works for you?
Swear on God the other day I was thinking I bet Eric's making so.ething pretty Dope & gonna drop a video pretty soon. Then Boom Shacka Lacka a 51+ min. cinematic banger featuring Freedom Cleets!! Hoping all is well my friend, Dirty Jersey out!!
welcome back
Question: you said the saw blade was just sharpened. What kinds can be sharpened and where did you get it sharpened?
I see that Woodwerks price tag on that walnut 🙂
Hi from Columbus!
Looks good man.
Haven't read the comments, forgive any "repeat" ideas... but for the hot-glue removal, combine the "packing tape" concept from the other side, with the hot glue. Lay down a strip of packing tape, cut out an appropriate sized hole to let the resin through, then make the hot-glue dam on top of the tape (it may melt depending on heat setting and tape type, but it won't strongly adhere to the wood). Then for removal, simply peeling up the tape will remove the hot melt glue from the surface (basically blocking the glue from sticking into the wood pores). At least that's a thought, obviously need to test-trial on scrap first!
Love the channel!
@25:22 You could have made a rabbet cut instead of using the nibble method, or a dado set. To make a good, clean, rabbet, you would want to make a jig to support your board.
as another woodworker in Columbus I’m pretty sure I know exactly where you paid a ton of money for banana lumber hahaha. the people who work there are great but I basically just buy exotic offcuts there.
Nice!
Silastic instead of hot glue. Nice wood work. Nice video work.
Eric sorry I haven’t been around to support the channel I was deployed for 7 months. Just wanted to pop in and remind you GO BIG BLUE!!!!!!!😊
Great work Eric, it's been a while. That build is something you should be proud of! To make it a bit easier on yourself consider opening your garage door when needed and also I find it helpful to use a small amount of denatured alcohol to help release the hot glue from the wood. 👍
long clamp tip is a game changer
Blue painters tape under your hot glue. Put the tape down add your hot glue cut the tape out of the center.
Awesome results, great videography.
A small comment. It looked like you used the larger, ripping, teeth on your Japanese handsaw to cut crossgrain, and the smaller, crossgrain teeth, to rip, when you removed the small piece off of one board. A minor point, in a great project video.
Thanks.
Just an idea but could you put painter’s tape around the void and put the hot glue on that instead of directly on the wood?
The door flip up, no? Seems an odd choice given how low it's mounted? Beuaitful work though, came out looking fabulous.
This is all good, BUT why do the doors open upward if the shelf is so low?
Such a name dropper.
