ha YUP. Hence the extra 45 cuts before I gave up!

Sure can! Here are all the parts I purchased on amazon to make it: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0838VYGP5/?tag=atomicindus08-20 https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07WG6WH7H/?tag=atomicindus08-20 https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07HHKBGW8/?tag=atomicindus08-20...

Yes, your point is well taken. I was referring to the amount I needed to adjust the fence forward or back to achieve "perfect square", NOT the difference in thickness of my fifth cut/4. If I look at the 5th cut/4... I am off by 0.00125" over 7.5" of cut. Given my depth of cut on the sled is...

HA! It lets me listen to the music I want. :rocker:

I also tackled this long standing project. This Milwaukee radio has been sitting idle in my garage for about two years now: Generally, it was a cool little radio because it used my m12 batteries and had an optional 12v power adapter. I also had an aux input port which worked since I usually...

Hello! Been busy working on my third video— ready to post that soon hopefully. For now, here’s the pre assembly parts: And the finished lamp: Super simple design, but keeping it clean and seamless took a little bit of searching for parts. I found a tiny USB powered zigbee RGB LED...

Finished up the video and posted it this morning: https://youtu.be/RxZv6VbFrjg Go check it out! Sent from my iPhone using Garage Journal

I finished up the new lamp build: I also found this little sketch of my original idea from 2016: Working on the video now, then it’s going to be a shop house project next. Sent from my iPhone using Garage Journal

Anyone know why sometimes the GJ app has a button to upload photos and other times just the camera button? I keep wanting to post from the app, but find the button to upload/embed a photo in my post is randomly gone. Some days it’s there And others it’s gone. Anyone notice this? Prevents me...

I had to google modulines. Modeline lamps turned up a ton of amazing results. I had never heard of those, but I love them. Amazing, I redesigned and old design accidentally. Now I have lots of new inspiration. Sent from my iPhone using Garage Journal

Completely agree! I’m going to attempt a higher polish for the final glue up. I am worried the epoxy won’t stick though... Sent from my iPhone using Garage Journal

Lamp is progressing. Most finicky miters I have ever attempted. If you think a perfect 45 is tough, this 3-way joint is insanity. I made a sort of goofy tenoning jig to get the mating faces right in my last post. I did another shop jig to get this miter together: It took hours. Soooooo...

Thanks! 100% agree about the music/audio side. I come from the photography realm, so aperture... sure. That’s easy hahaha. I honestly had no idea where to go with the audio side of things. I just looped the same song, and poorly at that. I’m planning to focus a bit more there with this next...

Safety first! Hard to see, but hes wearing little safety glasses also.

Plain ole’ PEX from Home Depot with ****** fittings and crimp rings. Works perfectly, totally safe, readily available. If you’re super concerned with straight neat lines, that can be challenging with PEX—so that could push you to rapid air or hard pipe. But if you’re careful, you can get a...

I actually love them with a few caveats. they don't have huge depth in terms of the jaws (only maybe 2"), so they seem best suited to thinner panel glue ups. Bessey cabinet clamps are more like 4-5" I think. I am finding they have a higher tendency to allow panels to bow if you over clamp...

Thanks! #7 investor! :rocker:

Next I decided to start something a little different. For 2020, one of my goals was to really push myself. Advance my skills woodworking, actually finally learn to weld, and even learn completely new things. Specifically video editing... I figured the best way to push myself there was to just...

I’ve not disappeared, just keeping super busy actually making things in the shop. Most recently, a little desk for Lady SoCal so she can work at home a bit easier during quarantine. It was supposed to be an easy project... I milled up a long grain butcher block from 2x4’s: The glue up went...
