Interesting ideas, but it’s not very good to put the bottles of wine upside down.
Love the bottle holder
Show!🇧🇷
Stand, pear, cute, but you can make a wall lamp (sconce) out of it.
Just found your site and love your builds. Your humour & honesty is appreciated too. We need more people like you, you and Tamar could make a great team ..ll Thks [ from UK ]
Parabéns ótimo trabalho 👏👏👏👏
creative. Thank you for sharing
Gostei muito das suas idéias.
Parabéns! Ganhou uma inscrição.
i love that project looks like lots of fun
That growth chart is amazing! Really good job! I am definitely going to make one! I might cover the wood in tape before routing and spraying therefore hopefully reducing the need to sand or letting the paint bleeds from the grooves.
😍😍😍😍will you marrie me? Saludos desde México I like your hands👍👍👍
Really good stuff, thank you!
I have a solution for the paint issue that you had on the ruler. I do a lot of CNC work on bourbon barrel lids and had the same problem. I found the Marsh’s Spray stencil Ink works so much better. It dries much faster and sands off quite easily.
Great ideas! Would love to have your workshop! Or just be your neighbor. 😬
😁😁👍🇧🇷
I worked for Princess Auto for a short while.. and never met a bunch of bigots like those people. I hated my experience there and will never go back. I hate to hear of anyone supporting that business
Gosh I Love Everything You’ve Made! Nice Work! 😊
Great ideas for projects! Can you re-use those stencils or once you use them they’re useless?
Thanks for sharing….good ideas👌👌
I look on your site and here for the cut plans for wine rack and can’t find them help please
Get the pear trivet template and dimensions for all the projects here: https://www.diymontreal.com/woodworking-gifts-you-can-make/
Try using flat black paint next time. I find it easier to sand off the excess.
You said "I got into the groove" when using that router bit. Ha! Nice pun. Great ideas here. Your instruction is spot on (not too wordy like many others). Thank you
Quick question: where did you find a 2"1/4 wood dowel?
I recommend wood and CA glue on anything like a trivet, because when it gets hot, the CA glue will fail. Maybe not the first time, but it will fail, eventually.
Wow ! You’re invincible.
I think I’d make a simple jig for lining up the wine rack holders. Otherwise, given my luck, I’d be off a bit and given the design I think it would be painfully obvious.
I really love your videos! Always great projects you do!
great video
I make growth charts with my CNC. I coat the pine with sanding sealer first, let it dry, then do the carvings. I brush on water based paint, and I think it’s thicker than oil based spray paint. After that’s dry, I sand it all down. There’s still minute amounts of bleed through around the lines and numbers, but it’s barely noticeable. Once that’s done, I spray 2 coats of lacquer.
I like your router jig for the lines. If you can incorporate an indexing pin to sit in each previously carved line, you won’t have to mark out any lines, and they’ll all be perfectly spaced apart by 1".
great video…you explain the process so good..thanks
Good job from morrocco
Your video inspired me! I have made 12 Large and 12 Small (PDF printed at 80%) and will be giving them as gifts in "Pears in Pairs" 😉 Have a wonderful holiday season!
Stumbled upon your channel recently. Great ‘how to’ videos! Working my way through your archive.
All of these are amazing!! And thank you so much for not doing everything perfectly. I’m a new woodworker and actually nothing is perfect! But I push on anyway.
Hi Marie, I don’t know if I will make any of this myself well possibly the trivet. Wanted to say your videos are inspirational and for a less experienced woodworker like me, your step by step videos make it seem easy and doable. I also loved the fact that most projects you do are first time experiences for you.. wishing you Happy Holidays from Papillon, Nebraska
To fix the paint issues you had with the ruler: First spray it with clear coat to prevent bleed out. If you have any wide voids, sand the clearcoat w/ 220 but for this project, it’s probably not necessary. Then paint by hand with a fine paintbrush and any black craft paint. Then when you sand the top, get one of those wax sandpaper cleaning sticks.. these are like $5 and will clean all that paint gunk off the sandpaper. These steps are more labor-intensive but would give a better result.
Nice gift ideas Marie! Thanks for sharing them with us!💖👍😎JP
Excelentes ideas, gracias por compartir
I loved the pear and measuring board. Great job amd thank you for sharing your knowledge with us.
Cool. Those are real nice ideas, and a great presentation. Thanks for sharing.
Cutting dimensions for molkky game?
Love the growth chart. I want to make some for my kids soon and your jigs were the missing piece I couldn’t figure out how to do. For the paint leaching maybe try sealing it first with something like a dewaxed shellac. You can still stain over top of it but it might help with the bleeding.
Excelentes trabajos saludos
Nice 👍👍
Great ideas! May I ask where you bought the 2 1/4 dowel for the game? It looks like fun to make!
Great video, thank you for sharing
Very nice…muito bom 👍
We play that mölkky game every summer. I’m finnish.
