Signing up and I'm in

 

[builtinbkyn]

I won't touch this …..............................................or that :O

 

[builtinbkyn]

OK while you, uhummm, gents were kibitzing, some of us, like me and papadan were getting busy, if ya' know what I mean. I'm done and I'm revealin' and the heck with the rules. Rules? There ain't no rules in Brooklyn.

You guys might want to let Josh know you want to swap with Yo! builtinbkyn 'cause this is a first off and first time eva item I produced. Never made a nothin' like it and nothin' so beautiful the likes of this baby. It's sure to be a collectors item when I'm famous too, like that Brian guy.

OK here goes ............................

This is a first off and never to be produced again, made of genuine pine and finished with paste wax. (Hey maybe this would be good for fridge since nothin' sticks to wax) Well anyway here goes, the reveal and ready for the next swap of 2017 or when eva'. Better get to Josh quick before someone else claims it!

Tada! A genuine push stick thingy that looks almost like a saw, but of course it's not a saw. It would be silly to push wood with a saw, maybe dangerous too and besides I was intended on making a push stick thingy. So don't fight over it. Might put too much pressure on Josh, but heck, I'm sure he could handle it. But I don't want to know who get's to be the lucky recipient of this first time push stick thingy made by yours truly 'cause I want to be surprised I hope you like it though

 

[builtinbkyn]

Oh it's a joke. You guys LOL That's my push stick thingy I made this afternoon while most of the guys here weren't woodworking but chatting away I needed a push stick for thin stock and thought I'd have some fun. First saw handle I've ever made. The wax finish would be good for fridge though

Builtinbkyn you weren t supposed to reveal yet… what the heck man … lol

- WoodWorkJosh

 

[builtinbkyn]

Ah it's only pine. Took me about two and a half hours to do. I traced the handle (tote) on my LN dovetail saw and went to work. I also got to think about my swap project while I was making it. Came up with a completely different idea from what I was originally thinking of doing. I think it's not been done before in a swap too. Well at least I haven't found one done for the swap I also learned something in doing it, which is always a good thing.

That is a nice pusher but geeze that handle is way too nice for it. Well done on that tote!

[builtinbkyn]

Here's my teaser. Can you tell what kinds of woods I'm using?

 

[builtinbkyn]

Hey everyone I have a quick question for all of my fellow woodworkers. I am working on an old door about 100 years old. It is an exterior door with a 9 pane glass at the top. The problem is that a lot of the muntins for the window panes are broken. Does anyone know where I can find old wooden muntins for doors like that. I know that I can make them with a couple of old moulding planes, but I figure its faster just to buy them if I can?

- WoodWorkJosh

Post a pic. However it seems like this is a job for a router and a few bits to duplicate the profile, if they indeed need to match something original. Otherwise just make your own profile that seems appropriate.

 

[builtinbkyn]

I ll post a few pics when I get home. For what I m doing it s not completely necessary that they match exactly. A regular old ogee bit and a rabbeting bit would work fine. I would just rather buy em if I could… lol

- WoodWorkJosh

Man :O Ah you're probably consumed with working on your swap project

I used ************************* Lumber when I needed to have accurately reproduced traditional moldings, for rehab work. Their catalog is pretty complete. Link

- builtinbkyn

I was a good customer of theirs. I'll tell them to charge you double LOL

Really, you should just make them yourself. It's probably just one 8' length of pine if they're to be painted, or what ever hardwood you require. About an hours work at most and that's being generous Run the profile on a wide board and then rip it. Are they going to be "applied" or "true" muntins? If applied, then it's even easier.

 

[builtinbkyn]

You guys have probably seen each other and didn t know it. LOL

- papadan

If he saw fridge's Bondo pose, he wouldn't miss him for anything LOL Just kidding Fridge.

 

[builtinbkyn]

I hate it when people post pro stuck on templates probably created in a sketchup program and they re building things to plan and actual dimensions like they know what they re doing type pics. Makes me realize how much of a hack I am.

How do you like the Carter stabilizer Bill? I m going to probably buy AZWoodys bigger bandsaw soon depending on the deal he gives me and was thinking of getting that for my 14" bandsaw and running a smaller blade permanently. What size blade lives on that thing?

- ki7hy

I guess it's ok. Have nothing to really compare it to. I got the BS off of CL and it came with that. I had to buy guides for larger blades. The guy who sold me the saw didn't know where the originals were. LOL

Oh that pro stuck on template was made with E-Z Draw. Some program I downloaded off the net. I sketch stuff with it. I tried drawing lines right on the stock, but I couldn't see the lines :O

 

[builtinbkyn]

Man now I have to start over :O Wood snobs LOL There's always the push stick thingy I made. At least that's pine and MDF LOL

 

[builtinbkyn]

I'm shooting for above adequate

 

[builtinbkyn]

One more teaser and guess the wood

 

[builtinbkyn]

If I can t at least go outside and pee out my back door it s not for me.

- TheFridge

AMEN!!!

I can see the appeal to some Bill, especially if that s where you grew up. But, it makes me clausterphobic just seeing your pics. Convenience of everything nearby is nice but I don t mind cooking and shopping online. IIRC, when I was up there for work, it took 45 minutes to travel 7 miles. I d have snapped and been in a straightjacket inside of a week :-/. Around here traffic means your average speed is < 45.

- HokieKen

I can pee outside my back door at home, but not at my shop LOL But on the upside, the bathroom is right next to my shop space

Yeah, on a bad day it can take me 45min to drive the 4.5 miles from my house to my shop

I'm an online shopper too, so if I do a relocation to some open country in the next year or so, I could certainly cope. At the very least, it will be a getting out of Dodge place in the mountains or at the beach where I can have a shop. It's just difficult to leave right now with an 88 year old mom who needs assistance.

 

[builtinbkyn]

It was nice growing up here. I get a .270 rifle for Christmas. I go on the back porch. I squeeze off a round to see what she s like. Good times.

- TheFridge

I can certainly appreciate that Fridge. I actually grew up on Staten Island and moved to Brooklyn 10 years ago after a divorce. Staten Island is still part of the city, but much more suburban than the rest of the city. And 40+ years ago, it still had farms. I used to hunt rabbit back then. Funny thing is, Staten Island now has a herd of dear that's over a 1000 head and wild turkeys all over the place LOL But it's much more populated and built up than it was back then. Guess I'm somewhat of a country boy in the city

This place is walking distance from my shop. I checked out their lumber a few months back but have yet to plan a live edge project. Every Tree Tells a Story I watched them fell and cut up the tree that's linked in the story. Took them quite a few days to get it done.

 

[builtinbkyn]

You're gonna need a bog box for that Kenny.

 

[builtinbkyn]

I hate chopping mortises in oak. That s all. Just wanted to be sure y all knew.

- HokieKen

Oh come on now. What Hokie is afraid of oakie?

 

[builtinbkyn]

I'm about to make some mortises in bubinga. Way harder than oak. Guess New York chisels are sharper and tougher. But that probably comes with the territory

 

[builtinbkyn]

What sled? No pics or link
