Love that bit and I use it for a number of profiles stealing parts of the curves for smaller stock.<br /><br />I'll try getting a photo of the profile later and post it to the article so you can try finding a similar bit.HalfInchShyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04633026047989713624noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5703009255391882847.post-23263773959636757732014-06-28T05:31:47.482-07:002014-06-28T05:31:47.482-07:00great video!

Neil, the magnets on the botto...Thanks, everybody!<br /><br />Neil, the magnets on the bottom cover attract to the "brass" pins. When I was playing with the magnets, I noticed a couple stuck to the bag with those "brass" shelf pins. Makes sense the shelf pins are steel and brass covered; straight brass might be too soft. So I used them as they looked pretty.<br /><br />I used the JMP for those small pieces, like cutting the bracket feet apart to keep as much of the grain flowing as possible. I could have gotten the two sides of a bracket foot closer together for even better grain flow. The box sides were too thick to do the miters on the JMP.<br /><br />Also the video was supposed to be visually interesting so I tried to mix in more Bridge City eye-candy :)<br /><br />Carl, the bandsaw part looks scary to me on the video, too! I keep my hands outside of the black insert. Usually at least 1.5" away. I think the camera angle, wide-angle lens zoomed in, speed, and how I digitally zoomed in removed a lot of the "depth of field" so things look closer.<br /><br />Glad the pace was good, Chris. I re-edited down often to keep it moving.<br /><br />For the table saw, I treat it like a normal table saw, not a SawStop. I'd have to look back at how the video looks, but I stay as far away as I can on especially bevel cuts like that since the blade comes out further than you might think (or I might think anyway).<br /><br />The Ridgid OSS is new; my old one was just an OSS; this one also has a flat platen. It was sooo much nicer faring those curves with the flat as opposed to using a large-diameter spindle then monkeying around with the result that usually has some radiused divots.<br /><br />Drawing bow?! Au contraire, my Myopic Watson! The yellow drawing bow is in the background of that very video clip (the Lee Valley bow), but when I pulled in the two sides with the strap, it didn't go far enough! Maybe there's a trick to going even further with it, but I had the ruler right there and blue tape so voilà!HalfInchShyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04633026047989713624noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5703009255391882847.post-82980747926368642272012-01-02T22:52:48.530-07:002012-01-02T22:52:48.530-07:00That's funny - I gave my mother an unassembled...That's funny - I gave my mother an unassembled puzzle too!<br /><br />When I started the video, my first thought was, "Am I going to sit here for 25 minutes and watch this?" I remembered to check how far along the video was 18 minutes later. It moved at a good pace and was enjoyable to watch.<br /><br />The box looks great. I liked the curves you added to the raised panel lid.<br /><br />Now for some random questions and comments I had as I watched the video:<br />1) Do you hands get as close to the table saw blade as it appears on the video?<br />2) Is the Ridgid OSS new?<br />3) You need a drawing bow!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5703009255391882847.post-60602156817964462412012-01-02T22:47:19.927-07:002012-01-02T22:47:19.927-07:00What a cool project.

Looks like a lot of work. I miss the high speed audio of the Bridge City saw as it cuts. Maybe it is just how it looks in video, but some of the bandsaw work looks a little dangerous.

As always, very well done.Carl O.noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5703009255391882847.post-20140595959286429562012-01-02T19:56:59.149-07:002012-01-02T19:56:59.149-07:00Excellent video and project, Paul.

And learned a few new techniques.<br /><br />Curious what the magnets are adhering to on the bottom?<br /><br />How did you decide which 45's to cut on the table saw versus the JMP?<br /><br />And thanks for sharing.
