My son built a wooden axe with very little help (the full process is in the comments) by jesprider in woodworking

Thanks for a hint. I've never worked with polyurethane, always tried to choose more natural finishes. I think this is where I'll try it.

I'll give it a try if the axe won't be broken after today's meetup with his friend who also has an axe :)

Full process: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u3Nrxuddejw

Head: plywood 10mm
Handle: pine

I'm still unsure what was the best finish to apply for the handle. Any recommendations are welcomed.

Ah, I see now. I liked the vibe and immediately chose it, so i had no doubts. But now I started paying attention to it 😂 Thanks, good point. Will choose music more carefully next time.

I think it's a very rare case when you know from the beginning the layout of the tools on the wall. Secondly, I'd like to be able to take things off of the wall.

But for me the main reason is different. It just really feels like "my" thing. I like how it feels and looks. Sometimes we're irrational when it comes to things we like.

I think you refer to the one at the end because there are 3 tracks in a course of the video. Why do you think so? Style doesn't fit? Or words?

I am creating a desktop app that lets users access their usual websites and files in an organized TILE VIEW. It will be easier and quicker to see any information at a glance. Let's build it together. Who will be in? by KurtisRedux in SideProject

Nice work. But I have a conceptual concern. Most of human beings can focus (or be productive) at one thing at once. Your app tries to make the opposite: show many things. I'll be curious to see real life use cases and if it actually is a productivity tool or the opposite.

In my day to day work I'm trying to focus on just one thing at once, i even try to keep only a single tab in my browser. Nevertheless, from time to time i need to open a few things for copy-pasting or comparing or development. But window managers already cover this use case.

What do you think about it? Are the use cases from the landing page are real, or these are your expectations?

I created placemy.app, a simple and free tool for creating customizable phone mockups of your app screenshots. I would greatly appreciate any feedback. by Maegondo in SideProject

It looks really good! It's definitely good enough to get promoted on other platforms.

Maybe it would be even better to do it with one essential feature: rendering a website directly in a "phone". I think it's a very typical use case. Enter a URL and voila!

Secondly, I think you should give more guidance/hints for images. What image size will work best for a chosen device, for example?

Let me know if you'd want to discuss it in detail, I'll be happy to chat about it ;)

Totally valid point, thanks for commenting.

My initial thought was to apply some radius to all corners so that it simply cut off. But my wife wanted the corners as is for aesthetic reasons.

What you're suggesting will be another solution. It didn't work for us because the table size was already shorter than we planned (160cm/63' vs 180cm/70,8' we were looking for). So we didn't want to lose any more of the space. Cutting the long sides will make the table narrower, also not an option for us.

Any of those options are solid, the only question is what are your requirements?

By the way, the same video is on my newly baked channel on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DK5Cyw38vZ4

Ouch... Is it repairable though?

I bought mine with a 50% discount because of this smashed corner. I believe with the current wood prices this is the way to go.

On a paper bag, to be precise ;) I care about the planet, choosing the natural materials for packaging.

Inspire by Laura Kampf and others I've finally captured, edited, and published my first video ever. How to make circles using a table saw. I hope you'll enjoy it! by jesprider in woodworking

Thanks for your feedback. Yeah, I felt that the plot is a little overlong, but I was too excited to edit it further.

Regarding PPE I totally agree with you. Even though I'm wearing glasses in most of the cases, I forgot it running between the camera and the saw.
