  • You won't believe how easy this piece of wood art was to build. All you need is two 2 x 6s a 24 x 24 project panel from Home Depot, and some construction adhesive.
    So how much style can you squeeze into one piece of wall decor and just a couple of 2x6s? #LetsDothis

      Thanks! It would be even better if you used a quadratic pattern for the depth of the pieces but it will diffuse a few frequencies pretty well. I could figure them out, but I don't feel like doing math...

  • @christinecahill2874
    @christinecahill2874 Před 6 lety +1

    Hi, you can use painters tape doubled up on both sides of the blade if you dont have a zero clearance insert available. Actually just used that method on mine for the small rips that were getting caught between the blade. Very dangerous otherwise. Try it and let me know if it works for you. Take care & thanks for sharing.

    • @WoodWorkLIFE
      @WoodWorkLIFE  Před 6 lety

      Good point, I got a little lazy with that one. Never good to be lazy with safety.

  • @jackstrange4828
    @jackstrange4828 Před 3 lety

    Use wide blue tape for an emergency zero clearance insert. Just apply the tape over the existing insert opening in one long strip, then raise the blade to the height you need for the cuts you are making.

  • @heyimamaker
    @heyimamaker Před 6 lety +1

    Looks good! Do you think you could apply the Shou-sugi-ban finishing technique to this? Possibly for an outdoor patio piece.

    • @WoodWorkLIFE
      @WoodWorkLIFE  Před 6 lety

      oh hell ya, but Shou Sugi Ban really takes best to White Oak though, so I would build it out of White Oak if I were going to do that. The dark color might take away some from the shadow lines though so YMMV.

    • @heyimamaker

    Why did you use construction adhesive instead of wood glue? Awesome art btw, love it!

    • @WoodWorkLIFE
      @WoodWorkLIFE  Před 5 lety

      because construction adhesive doesn't REQUIRE clamping. It also has tack when it is wet so the pieces don't shift around as much.

  • @presbarkeep
    @presbarkeep Před 5 lety +1

    Would have liked a nude stain, or just clear coat, to let the natural shape of the wood create its own shadows and contrast rather than try to force something with walnut stain.. but.. still looks neat.

      @WoodWorkLIFE  Před 6 lety +1

      Good question, I answered it in the blog post but it didn't make it into the voice over. I used loctite power grab so that I didn't have to clamp or nail anything as I went, you just press it in and it stays until it is dry.
