I made this video while I was creating a vertical garden for an article in The Shed magazine. Lost the files for a while (and forgot I had shot the video!!), but here it is at long last!
A quick video of the Lancaster Bomber being cut out. I don’t want to think how long it took this video to actually get done – so many delays, so few windows of opportunity to work on it! I decided to cut my losses and just put together what I had, rather than stress too […]

(A slight delay in the SundayCNC post!) The Australian Animal series, from MakeCNC.com (scroll down a bit to the Australian Animals) A really nice set of designs, with some real standout patterns. By far and away, the Sulphur Crested Cockatoo is the most impressive, at least in my opinion. However, it was the Echidna that […]

As mentioned recently, I had an opportunity to demonstrate the SawStop Industrial (5HP) to a group from the Instrumentation & Technology Development Facility (Monash Instrumentation Facility), and the Faculty of Science, both from Monash University. The following video was taken and edited by Steve Morton, from the Scientific Imaging Service within the Faculty of Science, […]
This episode uses one of the MLIS (Multiple Layer Inlay Stencils) from Tarter Woodworking. Good product, great results, and a very realistic price to boot. What’s not to love? The template used here is the Yin Yang. I did try the Clownfish, but have to come back to that for a second attempt (got my […]
We all know the idiom about book-smarts versus street-smarts, and it holds just as true (if not more-so) for woodworking as any other pursuit. You can read and read about a topic, watch all the videos, follow the forums and talk with experts, but I can still guarantee the first time you pick up a […]
Gave the I Wood Like website a run today, specifically around their new online shopping cart. Very seamless and easy way to purchase blades, brakes, inserts, even entire machines (both SawStop and MiniMax). The blade purchased will be the subject of an upcoming review. Details of delivery address and payment details have been removed from […]

First quick video of the printer working. Had a few teething problems, mainly around getting the print to adhere to the bed. Removed the aluminium bed and replaced with glass. A quick wipe of the surface with a glue stick, and we were away laughing! Print completed Ready for removal Skull box completed, ready for […]

Had a look at the blade(s) after the fact, and found out where the significant cascading sound comes from when the brake activates. 12 separate tungsten carbide teeth ripped loose of the blade. Most presumably are due to the spacer blades not being in direct contact with the aluminium brake, so were able to move […]

Finally! A tour of the shed, warts and all. It is still a work in progress, but I guess, it will always be somewhat of a work in progress!

Featuring the smallest, and largest Amana Tool router bits from Toolstoday.com (at least those that fit a standard 1/4″ and 1/2″ router). Surfacing is done on a Torque Workcentre. Music by Lis Viggers
Most of the system is now in place and connected up, just need a few extra connectors to finish it off. Have shot this quick walking tour so you can see the setup that I have put in place. As mentioned, the system is sourced through Professional Woodworkers Supplies, and it makes it very easy […]

It may not be woodworking, but we all enjoy a cold beverage of some description, and we have all been stuck on occasion wanting it cold a lot faster than conventional methods will allow. Here is a quick look at a way of using a power tool (drill) and a bucket of ice, along with […]

Another tool I got to play with at the wood show was the C26 Genius, a MiniMax combo– again from Gabbett Machinery. Trying out the Amana Tool Profile Pro from Toolstoday.com, with a rebate cutter, then one of the profile cutters. Photos are in an earlier post, but you can’t really see just how smooth […]
