    Huge fan of this design. Unlike many other builders on YT that seem to only work with 8/4 panels and inevitably lots of waste, your designs seem to have nothing but a small pile of sawdust left over at the end. This is more respectful of the trees and the time it takes to grow. Keep it up!

    • @morganhurst_redridge
      @morganhurst_redridge  Před rokem +1

      That's one of my biggest pet peeves! The fact that some of the wood we work with comes from trees that took 100+ years to grow it's definitely a shame to waste any of it. I'm always looking for ways to make more use out each piece, and if I had a fire place I would use the saw dust to!

    Great video! I am currently making a tabletop out of maple. This is the first time I have ever used it, I was nervous at first. After working with it, I found that it is by far my favorite wood to plane with a hand plane. A plane with a good sharp iron will glide across it, making perfect thin ribbons that make me think I might know what I'm doing 😆

    I totally understand being broke and woodworking. I was in the same boat 8 years ago. In fact, had to sell a classic car I dearly loved to get started. In terms of lumber, on "trick" I have found is to join a local woodworking club. When I did three years ago, I found that there was often enough free wood or tree trunks of quality woods to the point where I could probably get away without even needing to buy hardwood again. Walnut, maple, cherry, etc. I'm sure you will have a local woodworking near you. Also, plenty of decent tools pop up. At one point, someone (likely family of a deceased woodworker) was selling a DeWalt 735 with a shelix head in it for $250!

    • @morganhurst_redridge
      @morganhurst_redridge  Před rokem

      That's impressive dedication, I've sold some of my outdoor gear to help out but nothing as sentimental as that car!
      I'll have to ask around, I know there's a pretty big woodworkers club here in Calgary so I might be able to start there. I haven't had much to do with that club since the first time I checked it out because the members where 2-3x my age and it felt very awkward, but that was also when I had very little experience, where now I think I might be more comfortable taking part discussions and what not.

    Some woods will require other prep before staining. Never did realize Maple would be difficult to stain though. With your move into wood dyes you can experiment with other colors on smaller projects. On a stock/hand guard project I created a very exaggerated Russian Red with Scarlet Red wood dye from Woodcraft. For a small project I think you should experiment with poly/dye mixtures. Your piece came out very nicely.

    Enjoyed the build. Thanks for sharing. When I want longer open time, I use Titebond Liquid Hide Glue. Once, when using TBLHG, I put a part in upside down. I didn't relalize it till 20 minutes had passed. With the hide glue, I was able to take it apart and reassemble. You might want to try it to reduce glue up stress. I pretty much use it all the time these days.

    • @morganhurst_redridge
      @morganhurst_redridge  Před rokem

      I've gotten more in the habit of using hide glue, my only worry about using it on this project is that it doesn't clean up as easily. I knew with titebond 3 I could wipe off any glue with some damp rags, but with hide glue I've had some issues trying to get it cleaned up on projects like this where I can't sand or cut it off with a chisel.
      If you know any methods for cleaning it up that might work, let me know because I definitely would prefer to use hide glue!
