Use this Technique to Design Your Woodworking Projects

Показать описание
I’m often asked how I design a woodworking project. This video shows my process as I build a beautiful wood tray to give away as a gift. Maybe some people agonize over every decision, and while I’ve certainly felt that way when attempting to design a project ahead of time, I work best running and gunning! I design each aspect of the project a step at a time. This lets me look at how it’s progressing and the appearance of the wood, in this case walnut and maple, so I’m properly informed enough to decide on the next step.

This wood tray has beautiful curves. I used a router to do the bulk of the work. Double sided tape and clamps secured the tray to the workbench when I routed the profile. The exterior was shaped with a combination of router bits. Once sanded, I applied a hard wax finish.

Here’s a list of tools and materials that I used to make this project. As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases.

I really like the way you added the handles.

Love the tip on clearing out the handle excess on the saw before routing. Going up on my tip board!

I was thinking, "What a lucky random person." But then you decided to keep it for yourself...I love that decision way better!

Your mind works in strange and mysterious (nonconventional) ways. That's why your projects are always "awesome".
