A fake finger injury or some other power tool related blood splatter in this video would have made it more interesting.

None the less, well made.

He must have a helluva shop vacuum, there's sweet fa in the dust/woodchip department! I do that and everything's covered in woodchip snow in seconds, including myself.
So, is that low alcohol or no alcohol at all? mmmm, no alcohol, do you want to try it? Noooooooooo.

Maybe a new topic in Random Samick? I'm sure you'll get lots of helpful advice from us sensitive and concerned fellows.

Im just in the planning stages to make a wood pedal board also with power supply mounted underneath. Thinking of using finger jointed pine and use food coloring mixed with water as a dye then satin gloss clear coat.
