Restoring Two Old Spokeshaves

I donned a pair of gloves for this as it was about to get messy.

I'd start the cleaning process with some 80 grit abrasive paper and some 220 grit wet and dry paper stuck to a melamine board with some sticky back tape.

I started cleaning up the top of the cap iron, and eventually revealed that it was made by Record, which was a pleasant surprise.

So here I'm just removing the rust, I'm not trying to make it look new like it just came out of the factory, I actually like my tools to look like they've had some use.

Next I worked o

Making Cat Or Dog Bunk Beds

Recently I found some pine bed slats and a broken double bed frame, and in this video I'm going to be making some bunk beds for cats or smallish dogs.

I previously designed and made some single versions of these beds which was an earlier video on my channel.

The slats had some straps attached with staples so the first job was to get those off

And I removed all the metal fittings.

The slats measured just shy of 1.4m in length and from that I decided what size to make the beds. I'd make the length 60cm so I could

Making A Small Air Filtration Unit (FAIL)

In this video I'm going to be making a small air filtration unit for my workshop.

In this video i'm going to be making a giant mallet as a commission for one of my YouTube viewers in the United States. The client has a collection of hammers and mallets and said he'd like to have something made by me and he suggested a carnival or strongman style mallet and I really liked that idea. Traditionally, carnival mallets have a metal banding around the head and I don't really have the right tools or knowledge to do that kind of thing, so I reached out to Alec Steele, a popular YouTuber and talented blacksmith based in my home town with the idea of colla

Making A Large Beam Compass

I looked through my scrap pile and found a piece of what I think is ash, which measured 600mm in length and 27mm square.

I'd start by drilling a hole for the pencil, and using calipers I measured the width of a pencil at 7mm. I drilled a 7mm hole, but that was a bit tight so I came back with an 8mm bit, and then the pencil could slide in.

I raised the blade on my tablesaw and then moved the fence so that the workpiece was centred to the blade, and made a cut through the hole, and a bit further. I rotated the workpiece making cuts

Why I'm Upgrading Dust Extraction

In this video I'm going to talk about why I'm upgrading the dust collection system in my workshop. This will be the first of two parts - in this video I'm covering why I'm upgrading, and in the second part I'll show what I'm upgrading to and how I upgraded it.

This is going to be predominantly a talking video so if that's not your thing, you probably won't be interested in this one.

MY CURRENT SYSTEM

Currently I have 2x 30l shop vacs for dust extraction.
