Scrap/Off-cut Wood Projects You Can Sell
Scrap/Off-cut Wood Projects You Can Sell
I’ve been looking at projects I can build with Off-cut/Scrap Wood. As woodworkers we generate a fair amount of scrap wood and throwing it out is heartbreaking. In this video, I consider bentwood lamination as an option for scrap wood projects.

hey nice belt sanding jig. where can i get the plans?
I watch this video for the first time a couple months ago and I found myself actually going to it the last four days like it was drawing me in to watch again or something LOL just watched it again for like the third time today. This is seriously so awesome it’s something simple it looks to us watching but I know it takes time and effort may be a little bit of math but definitely some measuring. I just thank you very very much for your cool ideas, you’d be amazed how much little things like this inspire people like me. Thank you so much. It’s awesome and I think the little glass lamp shade goes perfect with it.
Using a bandsaw to cut the strips saves a lot of material. But turned out as a great project for using up some scrap bin materials. I use most of mine for jigs and fixtures.
Could you make this exact light with LED and a clear plastic cover over them as well?
Good idea.
that table is a masterpiece
I think that the lamp is a brilliant idea! It reminds me of Art Deco a little bit. If I saw this in a store, I might be tempted to buy it. A lot would depend on if I had room for it.
So did u cut out a groove in the back to fit the wire in?
Now THAT, is worth making!! Thanks.
Beauti
I think that lamp holder being metal should had an earth wire attached!
hello thank you for the vid can any one tell me the best place to get the lamp parts that are used here?
Love that workshop good job
Great little project bru. Loved it 👍👍
That is a great idea and a great video! I second that belt Sander jig comment from the other guy! Awesome idea
Bravo!! Well Done.
I liked the idea of laminating with scrap wood. I don’t have access to good wood because of price and availability so I use a lot of scrap or cut-off pieces. Great project and I also don’t really like exposed wiring on furniture.
Love it!!! Really cool idea, I also don’t like to waste wood, especially not at the price of lumber these days. I will definitely borrow your idea ;). Thanks for the share and keep the great content coming!
Have you ever heard of using Abranet sanding paper? It is way better and it is longer lasting than ordinary sanding paper. Another thing. Have you ever tried using the Kregg jig to make doors or even drawers.
The lamp turned out very nice!
Very smart and creative!
I’m blown away!
will this work for any type of wood, i am very new to this hobbie?
I think i might try this project myself, though i plan on avoiding the handsawing and hand sanding lol. not sure where i will get the hardware for the light though… maybe from a second hand store and break it down.
Dude your workbench is wizard! That was like something out of a James Bond movie.
Now that’s the way to work a small area of space my friend.
I loved it when you flip the Miter Saw over it was like taking a Rifle out for the first dear kill.
If that’s all the scrap you have. Your just a beginner. Lol
Nice one mate, i like it.
Very cool idea
This is my first time seeing your videos and I am subscribing. I’m also jealous of your workshop! Very nice for a limited space.
If I had money for that equipment, I would just buy a lamp.
Very nice. What kind of wood did you use? Is there any risk with some types of wood for the bend not to keep after some years or months?
Mooi man, Jean! Great om ‘n Saffer op YT te sien. Ek het eers gedink jy’s dalk oorsee, maar die hadida het my reggehelp 😀
Beautiful piece of art! And useful, too! New sub.
oh my gosh! you’re shop set up is amazing!!!!
Just amazing.
Hey are you South African
Very cool, I will make a taller one. I have not done any bending yet, but will try this one 😃. Beautiful design, and good job of hiding that wire.
Impressive!
I like the project, but sadly I don’t possess enough clamps to build this! Ha!
That was some brave drilling at 11:40. Went right for it :p
Love it
Very beautiful lamp, amazing way to use the wood leftovers. Thanks for sharing your work with us 🙏🏼
marvelous design and work!!!
Are you from South Africa?
like always great job… you can sell them , but maybe can try a led light ?
The belt sander French cleat storage /workstation is freaking genius!
Love the idea, loved the video.
Simple yet elegant.
This is really cute. I love watching your videos – so precise and clear. And your beautiful accent adds to the majesty.
