Fred I found this video that I think you will enjoy. Especially the part about the rubber band, microwave, and cyanoacrylate.

That is so cool! Another piece to buy for the bandsaw. It's a good thing I got the saw cheap! I'm putting much more money into it than I ever would have imagined. :eek:

Decision Time

Post by fredsheldon »

Now that I have completed my first 3 boxes I need to decide which style I like the best. Although the tear shaped box required more work, I think that is the one I like best. As I did last year with my bowls, I will be making a bunch of these for this year's Christmas gifts.

Fred they are all excellent work my friend, but if you must choose I agree the tear drop is so unique and it looks like your work. :)

Fred I know who already has the tool ....

Fred both Gary and Barry have that crazy device for their bandsaws. Gary showed it to me a week ago. It is unbelievable, and as easy as the guy in the video shows it to be. It is suppose to fit any bandsaw table, not sure if that includes the shopsmith. Looks like you need to visit Gary ! :D

Well Fred I would have to say I like the Teardrop One but the others look like they have a bit more space for the drawers. Just my opinion. Great work on those. I hope to get that good soon.
