In this video of my acoustic guitar build I join the back, rough out the shape, quarter saw the spruce for braces on my table saw. Radius the braces with a Japanese kana hand plane. Sand a 15 ft radius into each brace. Then clamp the braces in place using my Home made GO BAR Deck. PLEASE CHECK OUT MY OTHER VIDEOS!

Homemade 24" drum sander
zhlédnutí 7KPřed 12 lety
I made this drum sander to thickness guitar tops, back and sides. It features a 24" drum, adjustable table height, material roller feed and a 7" disc sander.. Thanks CZcams.. After watching other videos of DIY drum sanders I decided to build my own.. Updated: Closer look at the parts and how it went together czcams.com/video/IH_w6zQcvS4/video.html
Snow shovel wheelbarrow
zhlédnutí 10KPřed 12 lety
An invention I've made to take the lower back strain out of shoveling snow.. That my 6 year old daughter playing with it.. Essentially it acts like a lever & fulcrum ( like the Egyptians did when built the pyramids) which cuts the weight of the snow down to about half and changes the awkward lifting motion to a more natural and comfortable downward pushing motion.. I'm looking for some investor...
Wow i am impressed 👍
Why... why would you need to raise and lower all four corners, that's crazy expensive for all that chain and threaded rod, and so easy to get out of alignment if the chain get's slack.... why? a hinged flatbed with just two moving points would accomplish the same thing?
Parabéns! O melhor projeto que já vi, vou tentar fazer um desse.
Awesome!
Brilliant!
This is phenomenal. Thank you very much for sharing. Just wondering if anyone has tried to CAD this design?
is your sanding disk surface flat or with a radius? if it's a radius, do you have a video of how you made it?
thank you
Great job
Very good design, just what I was looking for, thanks!
Do you have plans for this available?? I have been looking for a while trying to find the drum sander I liked the most, and so far, this is looking like I want it in my workshop.
Great that you've shared this idea! I already made my bending iron the way Pablo Requena shows in his video: How to make your own bending iron. Maybe another idea to have a larger diameter of the bending iron itself.
I found that I could just find a metal piece with a small hole in it and setup a light bulb under it. It would make enough heat if everything is tight. I'll just buy an old lamp and some carved wood to fit the bottom to install the metal piece over it. Just have to find the metal piece in question now.
Having trouble hearing what is being said. Lot of the time seems like he is mumbling to himself somewhere in the backround.Seems also like , as is with many of these videos, that a parts list and source for the parts should be supplied. I understand, if you want to keep your plans proprietary, that it is unnecessary to show plans details, and the presentor might like to sell their plans.
Why don’t you show the child how to push and pull without stopping after the pushing?❤
I know this is a older video, but great job man!!!
Extremally well thought out very nice job
That height adjustment system is insane
I mean, it's not terribly complicated, it's just so clever enough not seen anything like that
This is a really helpful, down to earth video...thanks
I was looking at a second hand drum sander and it's like £800 - £1000 so I'm pleased to see there is a high quality diy option thank you for sharing 👍
Thanks for Sharing! Good job!!! Does The tool work well With thicker wood ?
Thanks for the vid.. verified what my last handyman did! Thumbs up!
Rehearse your script. Giving a basic run down on parts names like pvc pipe for drum...is it schedule 40 or 80? How much HP does the sander need? That white surface board was a sheet of melamine. Dude?! Great you can build it but need better prepared explanation
Love it
The best sander I've ever seen. Congrats and thank you for sharing. Ricardo, from Brazil.
Simple and elegant, yet very functional. I've seen some shop made drum sanders on here that are way over complicated and over engineered and don't work well at all. Plus they're rickety and cumbersome. Well done man.
I chose to go maple binding instead of white plastic binding and did not want to spend hundreds of dollars. I sold my LMI bending iron years ago thinking I was done working on guitars. This is a fantastic idea.
Love your design. I have seen many of these machines made and yours is a winner. I want to make one! Have you thought about adding a gear reduction motor to the feed instead of the hand crank?
Thank you for this video. I purchased a $15 curling iron and built a jig like you did so it would fit in my vice.
innovative
Wow! This is the most unique homemade drum sander I have ever seen. How difficult would it be to attach a hood over your creation to suck up the dust? Overall you made one hell of a drum sander. The time it took to design and implement it definitely paid off. It truly is a very useful tool. After seeing your drum sander any other design on CZcams is just a joke. If you were to get someone to blueprint your design you could sell the design online. I’d buy one without a doubt. I am going to subscribe to your channel In hopes that you may have your design printed. How difficult would it be to attach a hood over the drums to pick up the dust? Thank you for sharing it on CZcams.
Very nice. One of the best setups I’ve seen
Only one word to say. "Genius" Thanks.
I enjoyed the story of you discovering this
My Takamine dreadnought is built like this.At least looking from the sides. Im not an expert in crafting but i know when i see one. So its called radius, like in fretboards.
Anh là người vietnam hả anh
Very cool build. Some clever stuff there.
Без пылеотстойника и системы аспирации - эта конструкция опасна для здоровья и жизни .
I like it. I realy like the spring idea, will use it when I build mine. Way to go!!!!!!!!!!
Would work great cleaning up wood shavings at the lumbermill
That is the best homemade thickness sander I have seen. Great ideas for both the table adjustment and the sprung roller system.
This is brilliant. Thanks for sharing.
Excellent
Fabulous!!!
Seems like you sure are doing things the hard way
Pretty cool man, just a simple magnet.
What about a soldering iron? Get a soup can and fill it with tinfoil.. I’m going to go try now. Thanks
I don't know if the heat from a soldering iron is enough to heat up a whole soup can since most of the heat is concentrated at the tip.
How thick can you bend ?...totally new to this
I've done 2.5 mm cutaway (the guitar Im building in my other videos.. I had bent it on my bender with the wrong side out so when I flatted it out and bent it the other way it broke. Lesson learned.) So I cut the broken part out and bent the pieces on that curling iron. Would I consider the curling iron a replacement for a better bender? No, but it worked in this situation. I would recommend trying it out on some scrap wood of the same thickness and species to get a feel for: amount of moisture, how long to heat, when the wood wants to bend.
Very cool!! Do you have detailed pictures of the system that engage the piece?
Vincenzo, sorry I don't have any extra picture and unfortunately the sander is in storage at the moment. Was there something in particular about the feeder system that you want clarification on?
@@nguyenkhai1 Hi, thanks for reply. I would like to know if the bolts that the springs slide on are screwed and how you calculated the height of the rollers to be two millimeters below the drum.
@@vincenzogiacalone the 4 bolt that the spring slides on are screwed into the bottom of the frame (i tapped some threads in the frame first). These bolts hold up the entire roller feed assembly. I get the 2 mm adjustment by backing out the bolt which causes the whole roller assembly to drop or tightening the bolts which causes the whole assembly to rise (i did this on all 4 bolts as evenly as i could). I say 2mm but it's just an estimate.. as long as the rollers are lower then the drum then it would be the first to contact the work piece. Which makes advancing the work piece possible. If the rollers were higher then the drum then it would be just merely decoration... Lol
@@nguyenkhai1 Thank's
This video is very useful. Usually experts do not go on details on how to do this at a level that is useful to first time guitar makers or hobbyist.
