Woodworking projects I have done in US and fashion projects done when I was living in Africa.
2.1 Speakers System for PC
This is how I made 2.1 speakers for my PC.
All the parts come as Parts Express kits available here:
www.parts-express.com/Dayton-Audio-6-1-2-Down-Firing-Active-Mini-Subwoofer-Kit-with-2.1-Channel-Amplifier-300-7161?quantity=1
www.parts-express.com/Copperhead-Desktop-Full-Range-Speaker-Kit-Pair-300-7180?quantity=1
Additional things you will need is a veneer and a contact glue. The way you finish speakers it is up to you, you can also just paint them, I can recommend this product:
www.parts-express.com/ExoHyde-Pro-Grade-Textured-Protective-Speaker-Cabinet-Coating-Quart-260-2100?quantity=1
which I used on some other speakers with a great result.
You would also need to buy a power supply 20V, 3A (or similar).
It was an easy build, anyone with some manual skills can make those and enjoy a nice full sound, no matter if you are into gaming or listening to the music, podcasts or watching movies on your computer.
Specs:
Output Power 1 x 60W + 2 x 30W
Frequency Response 30 - 150Hz + 120 - 20.000Hz
Sensitivity 81 dB

Veritas Tools Shooting Board
zhlédnutí 2,5KPřed 2 lety
This video shows how I've built a shooting board based on Veritas Tools which you can buy at Lee Valley. #woodworking #shootingboard #radeksworkshop
Magazine Rack
zhlédnutí 1,7KPřed 2 lety
I've got some leather and tools from Weaverleathersupply, cut some maple and made this rack because I really like to combine wood with leather. Simple project, lots of fun.
Restoring Stanley #6 Plane
zhlédnutí 645Před 2 lety
This Stanley was in pretty good shape. I just need to clean it. Soaking in Vinegar for an hour helped a lot, then I used some wire brushes and sandpaper to clean it further. Flattening the sole was done on my belt sander and sharpening the blade on Tormek T8. A coat of fresh paint on metal and glossy polyurethane on wooden parts finished the job.
Cabinet Doors
zhlédnutí 769Před 2 lety
Stiles and rail style cabinet doors made of pine and MDF. This time I used molding rather then a router bits. There are many ways to achieve similar results.
The Bench
zhlédnutí 20KPřed 3 lety
Walnut bench for sitting 3-4 people with floating top and interesting joinery. Apart from Walnut I used some Maple and of course a wood glue. Hope you will enjoy watching this almost 13 minutes video as much as I enjoyed building this piece.
Rustic Clock
zhlédnutí 541Před 3 lety
I made this clock from a "cookie" and walnut plugs. I used Rangate knot filler to fill any cracks and Starbond CA glue to harden the fragile center of the cookie. Finished it with Bumblechutes product for a nice look and protection.

clearly there were router bits used.... would have loved to known which ones. Many of us are new to all of this stuff.
Hello, I just came to figure out how to set up 2.1 speakers for a pc, but I stayed for the beautiful workmanship in this video. Keep going
I'm glad you liked my video. Thank you for taking time to write that comment too. I appreciate it.
What kind of plywood is this?
Listo ya tengo las maderas, solamente me faltarian las herramientas
Esa es la mitad del exito
Cheer~~~thin, flexible string or rope made from several twisted strands.
✅✅
Thanks
awesome
Thank you
Good idea with this music its amazing❤ 🌍🇹🇳
The sounds is really good
Where do you get the acoustic stuffing?
everything comes from parts-express.com
@@RadeksWorkshop can you link everything?
@@molecule-ge2be Partsexpress sell this kit, everything except for the veneer.
What size bolts for mounting.
Absolutely amazing video. Helped me put my table together in no time.. THANK YOU SIR!!!!
I'm glad it helped!
Hi, How thick does the table top have to be so that the jaw is ultimately at the same height? Best regards
I gave away my HF and love this one!
Great video. Get rid of the dumb music please.
Thankyou for this, I lined my studio shed with ply and need to coat it! I don’t want too many toxins do you have any suggestions
I don't know what's available in your place, but I'd suggest something water based. Check low voc products.
Hi Radek. I remember you built a speaker with black paint. here you used a different coating. very great job.💯💪
Thank you. Paint is the easiest and fastest way of finihing speakers. It looks good, but veneer looks better!
Who makes the 90 deg clamps you used in the video?
Super wyszło 👻👻👻
Wielkie dzięki
Co to za przetworniki? Oklejane fornirem?
Głośniki Dayton. Tak użyłem fornir z czegoś egzotycznego, już zapomniałem co kupiłem.
Plans?
I think I included them in the longer video posted years ago
Cho cách khoan lỗ bạn ơi
Is there a video on how to build it, step by step?
What wad the stain colour
I think it was a walnut
that is a great stool ...do you have any measurements???? that i can use as a reference????
Thank you, didn't I post a longer video with a measurements somewhere there?
This was helpful to me in deciding my choice
I'm glad my little review helped

good vise!
You have to somehow put bearings on the inside bottom of the paint can so the cord reel frame can spin, but the end of the cord on top stays stationary. If this sounds wrong, it's because im having difficulty finding the right words to describe what I mean.
I've put bearings on the spool, it is really the same I think.
wow your shop tools are impressive. it's really very nice to have those tools and of course one needs to practice using them. it will make makers a life more easier. your cute foldable stool is very nice. thanks for sharing - viewer from the Phils.
A joy to watch your video. I admire your imagination to keep coming up with great ideas and sharing your passion for woodwork. Well done. One Handed Maker - Australia
Thank you very much for this kind comment
Can someone tell me the net space of the 12” box? Parts express has it at 19” and its not even close to that.
What do you mean by "net space"? Interior dimensions? The box is made of 19mm MDF, that is about 3/4".
Remove that 90 elbow from the impeller inlet and the CFM will increase; every change in airflow direction slows it down. There's no need for the 90 because in use the hose drops toward the floor anyway.
Good point, straight pipe would be better there
Can the tenon maker do all that the kerf maker can do? I’m thinking about getting tm-1 and the km-1… but if the tm-1 can also do the half laps I might just go with only the tm-1
This is Emily from DEWENWILS. You surely seem like the perfect partner we’re looking for, and we think some of our products will match your new project wonderfully. Let me know if you are interested and then we will send more details soon.
Uuuf ya yo hago esto
Impressive. Just curious, did you split the tips of the dowels (not sure they were technically dowels, but they were round like dowels), and hammer in wood shims?
Great Job... Very sinple and quickly...
Thank you
exactly what my wife needs, hope i manage to craft it myself, thanks for the inspiration!
Good luck, it's a fun project
Thanks for the review and I dont give a rats ass about your dust collector
Direct drive is more powerful than belt drive, but it can’t be also compact
Bucktool sells a ready made y hose for dust collection.
Good video and awesome set up. I have quite a few Jessem products and they are always out standing, high quality. Sorry, but I kind of snickered, seeing the Jessem set up, outstanding, and then "yellow" bits. Hey, they work :)
Definitely not the best bits out there, however in terms of a price to quality ratio, they are a great deal.
Beautifully done!! Which craftsman router did you use?
Looking good over there brother.
Thanks for watching man!
Hello! Great video! Just a question, where on the brackets and legs did you drill the holes? Cheers, from sweden!
I need to build one of these. It's a brilliant design. No - thank YOU! ❤️
Hope you'll enjoy this project 🙂
Hahaha i was looking for my sanding plate can’t find it brilliant idea im going to use it now thanks m8
Glad you like the idea
Adding a water based clear coat over oil-based stain doesn't cause peeling?
No, I've never have such problems. If it didn't peel after 3-4 years I guess it's proven to be working.
