Vacuum Former Build Part 3
October 23rd, 2014
I got a cheap electric grill for the heating element of the build. Striped it down and ready to try some tests.
Vacuum Former Build Part 2
October 23rd, 2014
I CNC’d some MDF for the vacuum table part of the build. Glued and sandwiched it all together. There is a hole at the bottom that fits the hose on our shop vac.
Table before sanding.
Vacuum Former Build
October 22nd, 2014
I’ve been meaning to build a vacuum former for a long time. The first step is the Carrier Frame, the part that holds the plastic.
I made it from 1″ angle aluminum (1/16″ thick), 90 degree flat angle brackets, a piano hinge cut to length, and some counter sink screws and nuts.
More to come.
Big Bats
October 20th, 2014
My friend Matt Epler asked me to show him how to make baseball bats for a fun project of his. Big Bats is a search through historical data (1903-2013) for performances by players who seemed like they were literally playing with a larger bat than everyone else.
Great job Matt. And the Mike Shmidt bat is hysterical.
Refurbished Cherry Lamp
October 17th, 2014
I just refinished an old cherry lamp I made my friend Corban a while back. The wax finish really deteriorated, but it came right back with a little TLC. What really surprised me was the light and dark parts of the grain changed dramatically over the years.
The lamp 7 years ago.
Robot Skeleton
October 13th, 2014
The kid wanted a robot skeleton, so the kid got a Robot Skeleton. Happy birthday buddy and happy early Halloween.
NYC Park Lamp
October 6th, 2014
My latest lamp.
The wood comes from Highbridge Park that came down during the Sandy storm a while back. I believe it is some sort of birch.
