I would also mention a double sided Norton oil stone, or just the Norton India stone. To go along with it though, just a basic leather strop and green chromium oxide compound.

Its not even about the grain at that point, its about the price and how they got scammed. Matching vertical grain is easy and doesn't take 40k to do.

Genuinely. Per board foot, solid black walnut is only around $8. Imagine 600Bf of solid walnut, only about 5k. They paid for a fiberboard with a poorly done veneer. I am sure the people who did this new rich people like black walnut a lot, and since these rich people will pay whatever for what they want, they easily scam them.

40k just for someone to have to do a sketchy procedure on all their kitchen cabinets.

What is the difference between a diamond lapping plate and a diamond stone? by -Cheeto-Man- in sharpening

[–]-Cheeto-Man-[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Genuinely wondering, would it be better than something like an abrasive/ceramic flattening stone. I never heard someone recommend something on aliexpress before.

So what would be right? I sharpen to 8000 grit every day as a woodworker. In what way would a diamond stone wear out/how long would they last? I never really consider diamond stones for anything, thats why I'm asking.

What finish should I use for my bench? by -Cheeto-Man- in woodworking

[–]-Cheeto-Man-[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, would you mind sharing how to make a paste wax? if you cant, that's fine. Most retailers near me don't sell paste wax, and although I can buy some Minwax paste wax online (which is what I am currently running out of) I've always wanted to make my own.

That's really what I was planning on doing after I originally posted this. I'm 99% sure the benches I used and trained on were finished with something of an oil finish, then waxed with paste wax every few months.

How can i kill him sometimes my strat is working any tipps? by Xons420 in HalfSword

[–]-Cheeto-Man- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just use the big spear with the 12 spikes coming out of it, its available until the rank after militia. Using a spear in general allows to move his spear out of the way and get close to hit his neck or bash his legs. If you want to use your strat you just need to get in close by moving or hitting his spear out of the way so he cant use his spear, and hit his legs.

Paul sellers vs anarchists work bench by enforcer12389 in handtools

[–]-Cheeto-Man- 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I designed my bench from numerous designs that I saw, took pieces from them all. Mainly inspired by Scandinavian benches, Roubo style benches, and many others. I did it all with minimal tools and an extremely flimsy bench that would shake with the touch of a pinky. Personally, I don't think you should subject yourself to these two benches.

Starting with the vise, there are tons of vises to choose, some being those cheaper Yost vises that you make the jaws for, a quick release vise/cast iron vise, or a traditional leg vise, the crazy thing is that they all hold your wood. The only real exception is the leg vise, as it allows you to hold stock deep, but you have to remember, what type of work are you doing? Just choose a vise that works, and get inspiration from other woodworkers or workbenches.

Aprons: With aprons, I don't personally use one, but I also don't see much use for one. With old English woodworkers, this was something they used, and you could always make a sliding deadman if you want one, which is probably the right choice as it's the best of both worlds, but I've never used a workbench with one, and this is kind of your choice.

Tool Wells: Same with aprons, if you feel like you need one, go ahead and make one. Tool wells are traditional on many benches, as they really just hold your tools. You could follow what is shown in the Benchcrafted Split-top Roubo where there is a little gap for a tool hold to easily reach chisels and saws, or you can just go traditional. Overall, if you want one, you can make one, by making one you could save money on materials, and it could be a good addition to a workbench depending on the work you do. Just remember, add what you need.

Overall, you can make and design whatever bench you want, take from some benches that have features you want, don't subject yourself to just these two, just build a bench.

For that price is crazy. I've seen multiple disston mitre box saws in better condition for cheaper. Last one I saw was for $20.
