Popular Post Woodworking_Hobby Posted June 1, 2021 Author Popular Post Report Share Posted June 1, 2021 Finally got the kitchen helper all done and off for delivery today to my niece. I did three coats of the tried and true danish oil and burnished it with 0000 steel wool in between each coat and after the final coat to finish off the project. I have seemed to get good results with the oil and like the way it looks on projects. I just make sure and not put too much on and do a good wiping down the parts after each coat and burnishing in between the coats. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really I just need to start building more as I get too hung up on it will not turn out right or parts of a build are too hard. Usually once you get going things turn out ok or you just have to redo a part here or there and it seems to finish out ok. There is always room to improve but that’s why you have to keep trying. I will have to start another post once I jump into the next project. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woodworking_Hobby Posted June 5, 2021 Author Report Share Posted June 5, 2021 Yikes - does anyone have any suggestions on how to get rid of chips from planner and jointer? I am starting my next project and have created massive amounts of chips. They don’t really seem to burn that well and was not sure if I am just stuck with putting the in the trash slowly. Too much at once and will get in trouble with the boss ;-) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post wtnhighlander Posted June 5, 2021 Popular Post Report Share Posted June 5, 2021 Mulch, animal bedding (species-dependent), worm farm, mix with parafin, pour into paper egg carton molds to make firestarters, pack into paint cans, using a 2" pipe to form a center hole, creating a 'log stove'. Maybe keep a bucket of chips in the shop, for times when nature calls too urgently to run back to the house? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chestnut Posted June 7, 2021 Report Share Posted June 7, 2021 I have a wooded area and often spread them on the ground to help keep weeds down. I just throw mine when i have no use for them. It's more effort than it's worth to try and find a home for 35 gallons of dust a week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
