Do Wood Treatments Really Work? UNEXPECTED RESULTS

3 years ago I set up an experiment to find out if wood treatments actually work to protect timber from rot, decay and wood boring insects. I wanted to test pressure treated / tanalised wood and also self treated wood with a wood preserver product. The results from these tests really surprised me!

How To Sharpen & Set Planer / Thicknesser Blades ( HC260 / PT260 )

In this video I show how to sharpen planer (jointer) thicknesser blades and then show an easy method for setting the knives to the correct height. My machine is the Elektra Beckum HC260 which is practically the same machine as the Metabo HC260 and the Record Power PT260

OSMO POLYX OIL Vs OLI NATURA - Which Is The Best?

In this video I put two hard wax oil wood finishes to the test - Osmo Polyx-Oil Vs Oli Natura Hard Wax Oil from Germany - which happens to be the cheapest hard wax oil available on Amazon. I test out their appearance, ease of application, drying and cure time, stain resistance and value for money.

Solid Wood Vs Veneer | How To Tell The Difference | IKEA's "Fake" Wood

How do you tell the difference between solid wood furniture and veneered furniture? In this video I explain how to determine the difference. I also make some "fake" solid wood in the workshop, showing how companies like Ikea and other furniture manufacturers are creating items that appear to be solid wood, but are actually veneered.

Free Reclaimed Wood!

In this video I convert some discarded items in to useable timber / lumber / wood.

The Best Wood Finish, Every Time - Wood Finish Finder Tool

Choosing the right wood finish isn't always easy, especially if you're new to woodworking - there are so many options - oils, waxes, hard wax oils, varnishes, lacquers, shellac, dyes, paints, stains and polyurethanes.
I've been working hard on a project over the past couple of months creating an online tool designed to help you choose the best possible wood finish for your particular project, whatever that might be. And in this video I show you how it works, and talk you through some examples.

Free Hardwood? Yes please! Salvaging & Milling Timber

In this video I salvage some wood from some hardwood window frames and doors. There was a real mixture of solid timber, laminated and fingerjointed staves of hardwood and face veneers, but well worth the effort! Free wood is the best kind of wood. I'm not sure what species of wood these are, there's probably some meranti and mahogany in there among others... This wood will be used to build a rocking chair for the Karl Pope Woodcraft Build A Chair Challenge on 5th December.
