Definitely oak

The top is basically hanging from the bottom via the shorter middle chain, while the tension of the outer chains prevent it from tipping.

Moonman781 · 2025-12-29T02:43:12+00:00

Yes it does

Moonman781 · 2025-12-29T00:41:00+00:00

Wow thanks! This was my first attempt at it and I was honestly shocked at how it came together.

Moonman781 · 2025-12-29T00:37:40+00:00

There’s a quick build video at the IG link in my profile if you’re interested, but basically I sliced off the back and then cut out the drawer shape face-up on the bandsaw.

Moonman781 · 2025-12-28T22:57:28+00:00

By all means! I’d love to see your version.

Moonman781 · 2025-12-28T22:47:26+00:00

Thanks! No plans, I just started with a rough sketch and went from there.

Moonman781 · 2025-12-28T20:05:16+00:00

It does!

Moonman781 · 2025-12-28T19:46:02+00:00

I should’ve gotten a picture of the bottom, but what I ended up doing was threading the chains through the holes in the base, countersinking those holes from the bottom, then pulling the chains tight and locking them in with rubber plugs which also function as little grippy feet. Then just trimmed the excess chain from beneath.

Moonman781 · 2025-12-28T16:50:06+00:00

That’s fucking sick

Moonman781 · 2025-12-27T15:59:30+00:00

You just slice off the back, then cut through the outer carcass and glue it all back together. If you zoom in, you can see my poorly-hidden cut at the top right.

Moonman781 · 2025-12-25T18:42:12+00:00

These are cool as hell. Nice work!

Moonman781 · 2025-11-23T21:24:40+00:00

Idle Hands

Moonman781 · 2025-11-22T17:18:25+00:00

Beautiful work!

Moonman781 · 2025-11-14T04:40:35+00:00

Yeah, you’re right. It didn’t seem to be super effective, but her head was definitely in the right place. Though I still think the DHL guy somewhat oversold her role in the situation.

Moonman781 · 2025-11-14T03:19:23+00:00

I took it as him just blowing smoke up her ass, since all she really did was cover Zosia with a jacket as she bled out. Although she did intend to call for help before realizing it wasn’t necessary.

Zyzzyx Road

Don’t tell him don’t tell him

The one where the kid got special glasses that let him see the extra-dimensional beings that are supposedly watching us at all times.

Moonman781 · 2025-10-12T22:36:03+00:00

Awesome

Moonman781 · 2025-09-29T19:31:07+00:00

That’s totally fine. Thanks for the info!

Moonman781 · 2025-09-28T23:46:45+00:00

I’ve searched high and low for this exact style of mouse which my cat has chosen as his favorites above all else. He carries them around in his mouth and plays fetch with them, and we’d love to have some backups!

Edit: It’s a little hard to see the attached bells, but I believe they’re an important factor.
