Kreg Corner Rounding Guide Set Review, Uses & Storage
@CarbatecTheHomeOfWoodworking sent me this cool-looking jig from Kreg that helps you get consistent corner profiles on your work. I had a few little issues with it, but if you are cutting a lot of corners it is certainly much faster than marking them all out and heading to the sander. Here are my first impressions and review.
In Australia, you can find all your Woodwork Gear at Carbatec: The Home of Aussie Woodworking, including the Kreg Corner Rounding Guide Set - https://www.carbatec.com.au/kreg-corner-rounding-guide-set

HANGI
hanging-large-artwork-or-frames
How to hang large or heavy decorations on your walls comes down to a few considerations both aesthetic and practical. Good planning is key as is carefully triple-checking your measurements. In this Fixit Fingers Quick Fix, I show you how I go about it as a handyman (with the aid of the little wifey!). I use wall anchors in brick and will show you how I space them out accurately. Hopefully, it gives you some tips so you can DIY hang your own pieces up on display.
We recently acquired a matched pair of works by nationally acclaimed Sydney artist Sokquon Tran. "Winter in the Southern Highlands" 2019. 2.4m x 1.2m oil on panel is an ethereal landscape diptych that now lives on our bedroom wall.
If you are interested in his work please do get in contact. He is a friend of my wife and has many fine pieces in this style large and small painted in his Sydney studio.

MINI-
mini-australian-pathtag-holder
Time to make my second batch of Pathtag holders. This time in the shape of Australia which presented its own carving challenges. No CNC here, though I am learning why you'd want one if doing mass production! The OzGeoMuster 2019 in Wollongong was fast approaching but my little box-cutter incident had set me back a number of weeks so it was time to get cranking.

PALLE
pallet-wood-projects-are-scams!-(the-man
YouTube #Woodworking Scandal! Tonight on HARD WOOD TALK join me Phil Schinbein from@graduallywizardly & @schinbeindrumco as I talk to James from @FixitFingers about his Fake Pallet business supplying the top #Palletwood Makers who produce the flood of viral pallet furniture videos that are tricking honest viewers about their pallet wood business dreams.
@JesperMakes , @MorleyKert and especially @dainermade come under fire for the indecent practices they subscribe to, all in pursuit of subscribers and sweet, sweet YouTube dollary-doos.
PLUS! We confront James over his blatant ripping off of @Bourbonmoth , as well as his inability to let a bad joke die.

TASSI
tassie-oak-ukulele-stand-(revisited)
Revisiting my first hardwood project and gee I wasn't ready, so many mistakes! A homemade ukulele stand for the wifie based on a DIY guitar stand by Drew at Fisher's Shop. I struggled a lot but learnt heaps.
Here is a non-exhaustive list:
- Learn edge jointing: My split router fence worked, but it helps if the blade is at actually 90 degrees.
- Dowels are needed when the surface area of joints is minimal.
- Don't use PVA on dense grain wood like Tassie Oak
- Dremel Carving is fun
- Hardwood is hard, your cheap Bunnings bits won't cut it (pun intended).
- Routers and disk sanders can have massive kickback, watch your technique and fingers.
- Never film yourself sanding a dowel ?

This is my second "All Chop! No Chat!" re-edit taking this build down from 2 parts and 33 minutes to just 7 minutes with a chilled backing track ? We don't get many do-overs in life, but fortunately, YouTube is a place where this can be possible. Enjoy!
(...and if you do check out the long version be kind, I was literally a couple of months in since picking up my first saw ?)

RESTO
restoring-rusty-garden-secateurs-with
My wife's Fiskars garden sheers from Bunnings are pretty good pruning tools, but they live outside and have begun to rust quite heavily. So to save them, I bought some Evapo-Rust Rust Remover Ready-to-use from Carbatec to try out and review. It is expensive stuff so I'm testing it out for you to see if it is worth the money! I got the big one as I have a vice restoration to do after this test run where I will compare it to the much cheaper vinegar option. The short answer is yep, it's pretty awesome, but you'll have to watch to see the results for yourself :P
