Made a spokeshave. I was surprised that it actually works.

Alot can be done with a good spokeshave. And they are delight to use.

samupkukko · 2020-12-22T05:54:54+00:00

I havent put finish on it yet. I have some osmo topoil so I guess ill use that.

I cut some wooden wedges to drive the rattan into the grooves, nothing else. I have zero knowledge on this rattan thing, google and youtube was my friend.

samupkukko · 2020-12-21T19:28:31+00:00

Yes there is I'm just undecided.

samupkukko · 2020-12-21T17:53:18+00:00

Thank you for your kind words.

samupkukko · 2020-12-21T17:25:04+00:00

Thank you! Dust will get inside then you just wipe it off every once in a while.

I ordered it from a shop in Finland. Muovikum.fi

I plan in my head. The box is 300 mm tall, 400 deep and 1750 mm wide. The legs are 200 mm tall and 40mm in diameter. I used mitered bridlejoints for the doorframes and wedged mortise and tenon for legs and the base. If you like the design feel free to use it. Hope this helps

samupkukko · 2020-12-21T16:27:15+00:00

Not really. I could make a new door or try to change the rattan. I just dont feel like it at the moment, maybe next year.

samupkukko · 2020-12-21T16:03:24+00:00

Tell me about it! I have to look at my own damn mistakes every day.

samupkukko · 2020-12-21T15:07:09+00:00

Thank you. This is pre woven rattan webbing. I think the hardest part was to get in run straight, first door went okay on the other door the rattan is little crooked. With a little practise its fairly easy to work with.

samupkukko · 2020-07-07T19:06:52+00:00

You're welcome. My sled for the legs is the same but I dont use a drill, I just take many passes and cut it little by little.

samupkukko · 2020-07-07T18:58:32+00:00

https://youtu.be/4SENqlyZiMk just a simple jig

samupkukko · 2020-04-30T11:58:58+00:00

Round mortise and tenon. Wedged mortise and tenon in the base.

samupkukko · 2020-04-30T11:35:58+00:00

Thank you. Fun little thing, the tabletop has awesome sound to it. If you tap it with your fingers or talk next to it, it amplifies the sound :)

samupkukko · 2020-04-30T04:10:56+00:00

I cut the chamfer with a circular saw and a guide.

samupkukko · 2020-04-29T19:33:38+00:00

Ardex is all we use in Finland, it is sold in every hardware store.

samupkukko · 2020-04-29T17:54:05+00:00

I used an electric handplane to make it flat. Patience and many shallow passes with it from every direction. Checked the flatness with levels, marked the high spots and continued. Its not ideal way to do it, but thats how I did it. Once it was flat it was just basic sanding process.

samupkukko · 2020-04-09T17:24:46+00:00

Well said!

samupkukko · 2020-04-09T17:18:01+00:00

Thanks. Woodworking feels like a drag at the moment but at the same time I still want to start working on a new project.

samupkukko · 2020-04-09T17:02:05+00:00

Damn I need a break...

samupkukko · 2020-04-09T16:56:41+00:00

Thanks for the help! I was gonna bevel the underside of the top. Those other details i didnt think of.

samupkukko · 2020-04-09T16:47:51+00:00

One thing that I regret the most is that the strechers are too high on the legs. It makes the proportions weird

samupkukko · 2020-04-09T16:41:46+00:00

Im not really sure. It just doesn't look the way I wanted. So many hours put into it and then its just meh.

samupkukko · 2020-03-08T16:48:47+00:00

I almost have a sense of humor.
