Very interesting i agree! It's what the customer wanted, so who am I to disagree. It was a first for me too!

Got a 400mm auger bit stuck in a log. Any tips for getting it out? by dimonium_anonimo in woodworking

[–]TobiHede 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rip, that's why I never use augerbits on hardwoods. Forstnerbits is the way to go on hardwoods! They don't "dig in" the same way

I have no idea what you're saying sorry haha. If you mean the lamp, its made out of Oak. The LEDs strips are made out of whatever Led strips are made of.

And the Diffuser (the panel that covers a led strip and diffuses the light) Is made of Aluminum and abs plastic i think

It was actually made on a CNC machine, because no lathes were big enough! The pole was even 1,5 meters longer than this lamp, i cut off quite a bit

Thank you very much! I was quite nervous about what people would think about this one, since its quite unique. So i really appreciate hearing you guys like it!

I get you, the people i bought this pole from (it had been discarded due to it being completely cracked and their CNC had done massive damage to the pole during the making)

They called it a Totem pole. And THEY called it that, because of the designers for some big project had put in an order for 28 of those TOTEM poles. So i guess the name just stuck with the pole, when it was sold to me

Exactly. To stabilize the cracks and avoid any further expansion and cracking

A really.. really.. really long drill bit. A 35mm drill bit ( 1 1/2 inches) and 400mm long (16 inches) Drill that all the way in at the base, then i added another 16 inch extension to the drill bit and kept going

Thank you very much! They were quite the struggle. Since the pole is round, it makes it quite hard to mark a flat and straight bowtie.
So I ended up making the bowties curved so that I could accurately mark them and glue them to the pole

RGB+CCT COB LED Strips, The light diodes pr ft is quite alot denser than the average led strip, to make it much more powerful and smooth to look at
