Splintered chair leg repair
Fixing a trash picked Ikea chair.
Its an Ikea FANBYN chair frame. There are different plastic shells to go on top of it.
The chair was relatively new but the legs splintered because it was assembled all wrong.

Wooden kid's wading pool build

After several inflatable wading pools got shredded by animals in the night, I built one out of wood. This was a very quick and simple project for its size.
Milling the dowel jig I always wanted
Просмотров 98 тыс.28 дней назад
Milling a metal block in to a dowel jig for 3/8-inch dowels. Essentially a 3/8-inch drill guide with four holes, to be screwed to a block of wood which is then clamped to the workpiece. This will simplify some of the dowel joinery I often make. This is my first project using my homemade milling machine contraption. Far from perfect, but much better than trying to do this with a drill press.
Stomp catapult
Просмотров 79 тыс.Месяц назад
A catapult without springs or weights, powered by kids stomping on it. Have been able to shoot small potatoes over 45 meters or 150 feet with it. Much further than a comparable size trebuchet ever would! Safe? Well, without springs or weights to power it, it can never go off by accident. But any contraption that throws something has some inherent risk to it.

Cut *any* thread pitch on a metal lathe
Просмотров 110 тыс.3 месяца назад
The threading table for my Vevor metal lathe was very inaccurate, so I set about to come up with a much more accurate thread cutting table. With five gears that can be swapped out, It's possible to approximate any arbitrary thread pitch with surprising accuracy. I also tried making some wooden gears to explore the possibility of just making custom gears for it. I have uploaded my Python script ...
Making a lens sphere curvature gauge

A different way to attach table legs
Просмотров 214 тыс.5 месяцев назад
Building a table for the kids to do their crafts on, and a different way of attaching the table legs, without an "apron" around it. Simpler and leaves more room under the table, but makes it less stiff. But the hardwood trim helps to stiffen up the table top. More table builds: woodgears.ca/table/

    The word _anachronism_ describes something that's out of its own time. Your content is often like that, except it's not out of time, so much as out of what is economical. There isn't really the right word for it. Let me explain. That chair was totally worth restoring, and I would've done the same thing; it was frugal to fix, and would be wasteful to throw it away. But a video makes the process take so much longer that a chair like that ends up becoming a sort of macguffin, because recording the process means there was WAY more labor put into that piece of garbage than it ever could've been worth. This aneconomical aspect makes your videos truly original, because they almost have no right to exist, if not for a crafty person with a unique skillset deciding to post the process of their fixing compulsion. The potential that's here for high-production value video should've destroyed this channel already, yet it remains almost unchanged. This is almost the only 'maker' stuff I'll still watch. From another pathological fixer, thanks, man.
