ChrisK Posted March 15, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 15, 2016 Sooooo...... I haven't shot a video in a while and wanted to show an actual video of a new tool I have. It's the Lie Neilsen Beading Tool (essentially a scraper plane) that allows you to create your own custom molding. About six months before I lost my best buddy Rufus, Samantha, my wife, sold her horse Countessa. My wife is an accomplished equestrian and (horses scare the heck out of me) was lost without Tess but she felt because we had been trying to have a child (yeah yeah....I'm old) she should sell Tess as my wife does hunter jumper riding and it is dangerous. Anyways. Long story short, Samantha got a new horse, Winters Blizzard (ironic as we didn't have any snow....for once) and I promised to build her a tack trunk. While doing this I came to the realization that I want to do my own custom molding. So here's the video.....of the tool in action This tool is really amazing and will be serving me quite well in the immediate future especially when I begin building my own custom cabinets for our home. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Glassey Posted March 19, 2016 Report Share Posted March 19, 2016 Are you converting the basement into a grow house? My goodness it's a little bright lol. I have the same shop basement look setup as yours. I will try a couple out because you can never have enough light says Icarus.

ChrisK Posted March 19, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 19, 2016 Yeah I just got one more with a free shipping code. I'll buy another in a few weeks but one more will cover my plywood cutting and break down area. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nordraw Posted March 20, 2016 Report Share Posted March 20, 2016 Nice shop Chris. Coming along very well. Must be hard to stay out of there at all. Have fun. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Glassey Posted March 20, 2016 Report Share Posted March 20, 2016 Hey Chris, been meaning to ask about the manual beading tool? Was that just an attempt to make you look old school, or you don't own a router? Going to need to send your resume down to Williams town. Hehe. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisK Posted March 20, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 20, 2016 Thanks John and Nordraw, been busy at at work this afternoon. I'm heading to my Mom in Laws for a ham dinner! But not before I made about 8 feet of custom hand made molding! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChrisK Posted March 26, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 26, 2016 Well I got the second shop light in today and wow. Completely amazing how much light I am getting. I ordered parts to build a Moxon Vise and should have everything in next week, just in time for me to go to Florida so maybe the week after I'll be building a custome vise out of some 12/4 Poplar or some laminated Maple. I don't want to buy more wood for this project whereas I could use some great species I have in the shop that have been curing for quite some time. Anyway, I will post some pics of the soon, and tomorrow I'll be assembling the tack trunk. Fun fun fun! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisK Posted March 27, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 27, 2016 Thanks to my Wife and Mother in Law messing with things in the kitchen and living room I found a reason to make a second pantry. This one will be roughly 76" tall, about 11-15/16 deep and will have adjustable shelves. I designed the idea in my head, as usual. So....what does that mean? A disaster. But I got to play with one of my favorite tools and set ups. The Festool OF1400 router with the LR32 and a Midi vac. The victim....3/4 Birch veneer plywood.... 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisK Posted March 27, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 27, 2016 Well Protool. They're not necessary. They just make things faster, easier, smarter. Hey....? Isn't that their slogan? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimboS1ice Posted March 27, 2016 Report Share Posted March 27, 2016 Not only that you can achieve a straighter cleaner cut than with a circ saw due to the track, good if you don't have a table saw for ripping down sheathing or if you have your table set up for dados or what not Jimbo Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
