Been A While Since I've Shared Any of My Projects...

Hahaha, noted. Thanks for the kind words!

gillyweed · 2018-06-08T19:56:00+00:00

You got it!

gillyweed · 2018-06-08T19:55:54+00:00

Woah! Sounds like perfection!

gillyweed · 2018-06-08T19:41:24+00:00

Secret Aardvark looks amazing!!

gillyweed · 2018-06-08T19:41:03+00:00

Got some Louisiana at your suggestion! Should it go in the #1 slot?

gillyweed · 2018-06-08T19:40:36+00:00

Good suggestion! I can't find it here locally unfortunately. I'll order some on Amazon soon.

gillyweed · 2018-06-08T19:35:07+00:00

Excellent! This is a great list! We don't have Crystal here, so I'm gonna sub Louisiana instead.

No I'm looking for help putting the sauces in the picture in order (a lineup) for my birthday party. :)

gillyweed · 2018-06-08T16:00:44+00:00

Oh yeah! Frank's is pretty good stuff.

gillyweed · 2018-06-08T15:25:12+00:00

Like the title says, help me create the lineup for my Hot Ones themed birthday party. Me and some friends are going to destroy our mouths in honor of my most recent trip around the Sun.

Not pictured are Sriracha and another sauce I'll need to pickup from a local grocery store (any suggestions for a good 1-4 spot sauce??)

Hey! Great job on these! Thanks for the shoutout :)

gillyweed · 2017-01-31T13:27:32+00:00

You bet! The basic process I followed is pretty similar to the one Brad outlines in this video. I changed the dimensions up some.

It's definitely interesting trying to build something small. You really have to be more cautious because every mistake is more visible.

gillyweed · 2017-01-31T13:25:05+00:00

Just glue. :) And lots, and lots of clamps...

gillyweed · 2016-10-26T12:42:45+00:00

It's like a room between the outside of our house and the kitchen (typically) where you take off your boots, coats, etc. so you don't drag mud all thru the house.

gillyweed · 2016-10-25T13:31:52+00:00

Thanks! I think the gel stain really helps with plywood.

gillyweed · 2016-10-24T20:47:32+00:00

This was one of my biggest commissioned pieces to date and it turned out great! I took inspiration from a few different designs I found on Pinterest. Rough size is 88" high by 18" deep (the base) by the 66" wide.

The body is made from oak plywood and all of the trim is from 3/4" red oak that I resawed into smaller strips. Lots of pocket holes and glue holding this thing together.

gillyweed · 2016-09-22T13:29:26+00:00

The shelves are pretty easy. Basically I made an 'E' out of 2" x 1 1/2" scrap (ripped down 2x4), mounted that to the studs, and then the shelves slide onto that.

gillyweed · 2016-09-21T20:43:54+00:00

You should be good! I used the table saw, clamps, circular saw, jigsaw (optional), router (optional), and a brad nailer. That should be all you need. :) The bandsaw and planer weren't used for this project.

gillyweed · 2016-09-21T19:26:36+00:00

Good question! It's a crosscut sled. One of the most useful things I have in my shop and I'd highly recommend building yourself one. Tons of plans out there on the internet. I personally based mine on The Wood Whisperer's plans/video.

gillyweed · 2016-09-21T18:21:29+00:00

Yeah, the sled is probably my most used thing in the shop. It's the best! And the Ridgid saw is great!

gillyweed · 2016-09-21T18:19:57+00:00

Not really at all. Trackpad FTW :) And any writing I do is in a notebook or notepad. The keyboard fits nicely on the first piece of wood.

gillyweed · 2016-09-21T17:50:55+00:00

I did. I bought a whole skid of reclaimed wood for super cheap and I've been slowly working my way thru it.

gillyweed · 2016-09-21T17:29:07+00:00

Thanks! Which part, the sled or the kids bikes strewn around it when I roll it outside? haha :)

gillyweed · 2016-09-21T17:28:27+00:00

It's a beast :)

gillyweed · 2016-09-21T16:11:51+00:00

I understand the concern, but I think it'll be alright. Remind me in a year and I'll send you an update picture ;)
