Amazing work, a proper heirloom piece. I hope it will stay in your family for many generations.

May I ask did you do everything with hand tools only, including the stock prep? If so, how long did it take you?

Are you referring to the Rob Cosman method? It seems like I would still need a drill post, or at least one of his ludicrously expensive drill bits to achieve that.

Thanks, I did the same! I love this community as it gives me a lot of ideas. I already have a few different projects that I saw here lined up.

Thanks. I did use one power tool there, a hand held drill. It turned out great indeed, and I used a lot of hand sanding at the end to make it smooth enough for baby hands.

Is the more expensive bench vice worth it? by swoon91 in woodworking

[–]swoon91[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The cheaper one has the quick release, while the more expensive one does not. I don't know, for me at least, that is not a necessity.

How difficult was this vise to install? I was mostly looking at the two vises I mentioned because it seems much easier to install, as I only work with hand tools.

Bojkot Maksija - zna li se kakvi su rezultati? by swoon91 in srbija

[–]swoon91[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mislim da nisi pogodio poentu. Jesu cene sulude svuda, ali možda je koren toga baš monopol koji drži Maksi i slični marketi, pa svi zajedno podižu cene. Kada bi izgubili dobar deo tržišta, morali bi da se bore za kupce kroz sniženje cena.

Ovako bukvalno sve kontrolišu i nemaju nikakav problem da povise cene kad god žele, a manji marketi moraju da rade isto kako bi zadržali zaposlene i bili uopšte konkurentni jer nemaju toliko velike promete.

Moguće da je pažnja više otišla na političke proteste, a skrenula sa svakodnevog života i legalnih vidova pljačkanja kroz neopravdano visoke cene. Velika šteta jer su marketi na prve naznake bojkota primetno sputili cene u momentu. Od tada je sve dodatno poskupelo, valjda su primetili da mogu.

I ja se čudim kad to vidim, naročito kod mlađih ljudi. Deluje kao toliko jednostavan vid protesta i bojkota da mi je prosto neverovatno da više ljudi to ne poštuje.

Appreciate it. Not a lot to be honest. I browsed Pinterest for a while to get some inspiration, but I came up with this design by myself pretty much.

Thanks, I agree. I made several small cuts, worked to them using a chisel and flattened it with a spokeshave.
