Wood stuff

I have heard of Woodwrights Shop, but have never watched it. But like you now, we do not watch TV.

If you like the old-school way of woodworking, check out Glen Huey:

He does amazing stuff. He does use modern tools, but he also reverts to a lot of the old ways. For example, I picked up on the idea to make custom scrapers for cutting detailed mouldings (without a router) from him. I used the technique to cut all of the mouldings on the audio cabinet above. I was really surprised that once I had made the profiles in the scrapers, actually cutting the mouldings was as fast as doing it with a router since I had zero setup time setting the depth of the bit and setting the fence etc. Plus, you do not need to sand them once they are cut!

Holy ****, NICE work! That is a GREAT idea! That is some tough stuff working in the round, especially with the 3D round cut on the top. That is far more difficult than anything I have done! I see a HELL of a lot of sanding or scraping went into that. Nice work!
