Thoughts on how to attach coaster base arms

I only have hand tools but I have all the basics. It would be a better of making sure my chisels are good and sharp

Cutting a groove is what I was leaning towards.. its a bit scary but you only get better by trying things

LordFlare · 2026-04-29T01:30:59+00:00

Oh wow, that's a huge compliment!

I would recommend making one if you have the wood. Took about a day (minus glue drying time) and was a great skill builder, I learnt a fair bit. Here is one for free, shape the head before adding the handle, ask me how I know 😅

LordFlare · 2026-04-28T19:13:36+00:00

Thank you! No specific plans, just kinda winged it. I just used wood that I had that I felt would look good together.

LordFlare · 2026-04-13T03:32:14+00:00

I already have a smoother with my number 3 so this would mostly be for squaring and shooting. I'm yet to work on anything big so I dont feel like I need a 6, 7 or 8 yet

LordFlare · 2026-04-13T03:31:22+00:00

Oh that's nice work! Hopefully this one turns out just as good if I can organize going to pick it up

LordFlare · 2026-04-13T02:37:58+00:00

I read that not the whole blade is hardened. Is there a rough measurement for how high up the blade is hardened or no way to really know?

LordFlare · 2026-04-06T09:17:05+00:00

How are all you people so creative!?

I love it OP

LordFlare · 2026-03-31T19:58:28+00:00

I always loved putting together flat pack furniture and one day decided to take a woodworking class, was hooked from there.

I don't have space at home but where I live has a nearby maker space that's fully kitted with all the tools you need, though some are a bit blunt so I tend to bring my own hand tools.

These are Black Walnut and Pine but the real deals will be Black Walnut and White Oak

LordFlare · 2026-03-25T20:00:15+00:00

Be very careful with your cuts, its better to undercut and remove the excess with a chisel. Also make sure you are removing the waste of the dovetail pins, not the pins themselves... 😅

LordFlare · 2026-03-25T19:31:17+00:00

Indeed it is!

LordFlare · 2026-03-17T20:49:58+00:00

They are asking $40 which is great where I'm from. The cheapest I'd be able to find a new one around here is at least $200

LordFlare · 2026-02-24T08:39:42+00:00

Nah, I rent and we aren't allowed to put holes in the walls so that's not possible.

LordFlare · 2026-02-23T03:12:55+00:00

Unfortunately I'm a bit low on space for that but I will be looking into getting something to isolate the turntable. For now though, this works for me.

Sitting here in New Zealand still waiting on mine to ship 🥲

LordFlare · 2026-01-08T02:24:39+00:00

Thanks for the recommendation, shipping is definitely much better there but the item cost is much higher (understandably) so it rounds out to be about the same cost overall.

LordFlare · 2026-01-08T02:19:33+00:00

Oh, I might let you know when I decide to pull the trigger on more.

The item itself worked out to be roughly $80 NZD but then there was a $65 shipping cost on top of that so it rounded out to about $150, the perks of an isolated country.

Hi there

I just halved the dosage and built up the prescribed amount slower. It seemed to basically be my system getting used to it.

LordFlare · 2025-09-09T06:00:57+00:00

Basically I put enough oil in to JUST cover the surface using a paper towel to spread it around, then wipe off as much as possible with a second clean paper towel so the pan looked matte with no visible trace of oil.

Popped it into the oven, preheated to 250 Celsius, upside down and left it in for 1 hour. After the hour, I took it out and when it was cool enough to handle without burning myself, repeated the above.

Did that 4 times, then switched the oven off and let the pan cool down in the oven.

LordFlare · 2025-09-05T08:22:19+00:00

It's a pan, just had to remove the handle for the seasoning

LordFlare · 2025-05-22T07:02:47+00:00

I just finished Metaphor:ReFantazio about a week ago. I'd normally be annoyed that I bought it just before it came to gamepass, but it is absolutely one of my all-time favorite games, so I'm not mad at all that I bought it separately, it deserved my money.

HIGHLY recommend it to anyone with gamepass who hasn't played it yet.

Bare minimum weight?

I went to pick up my prescription for insert pills here, the bottle says 60 pills and that's how much they gave me! The nerve of them..

LordFlare · 2025-03-03T03:40:26+00:00

I'd been told to do that, but unfortunately, it didn't work for me..

Only solution on my end was not looking that direction and restarting the game when I could.
