A great way to save money from router bits. Thank you and greetings from Buenos Aires.
Thank you. I’d heard of "scratch stock" but had the wrong idea what they were about. I guess you learn something new every day…if you’re not REAL careful!
Love your channel keep up the great work!
I recently made a scratch stock to put a bead around a vent opening in a section of pine baseboard. I could no get a clean bead when working across the grain. Any suggestions to working cross grain with scratch stocks?
Thanks
I was wondering how woodworkers of old added profiles to curves….now I know!
Great stuff Ray!
Save your broken hacksaw blades for these. Shape them with a dremel.
Great demonstration Mr. Pine, thanks for sharing it.
Caveman technique
This guy needs his own channel/segment showing his obviously vast knowledge
I did find this quite useful. I’ve seen all sort of patterns and information on these, and was in need of making one, and this was he first video that popped up. I really enjoy the rough "scrap wood" approach to your scratch stock cutters, and I was able to do just that. A broken hacksaw blade, a few minutes with a bench grinder and a Dremel, and 2 small scraps of maple with a 7/8 x 1/4 deep notch cut out of the centre base (just quickly cut on the radial arm saw), and I was able to scratch the stock I needed (some very tiny flutes for mini column plinth toppers on a reproduction clock case). It’s surprising how shallow the cuts actually need to be to get a nice profile.
Очень интересно,спасибо!
Great to see a fellow lefty working with tools. I appreciate the simplicity of the lesson and materials. Seems like it will save thousands of dollars over the price of a wide variety of router bits. Thanks for sharing.
Very helpful and interesting. Thanks for sharing. Best wishes
I’ve just started to work on developing skills for Federal Style furniture and I found this video invaluable. Thanks and best wishes for a great 2020 to you and the rest of the Wood and Shop community!
This simple scratch stock operation opens whole new posiblilties of adding decoration to projects. Thank you.
