Yet)karlpopewoodcraft2025-10-18 | This video was sponsored by Woodworkers guild of America, get a full years premium membership for only $1.49 by following this link go.wwgoa.com/karlpopewoodcraft
After several years of using my old workbench I've finally decided to upgrade. I've taken all the positives and all the negatives from the old bench and used this to design my Ultimate hybrid style workbench, I've also added some wants and left space for future upgrades. Some of the key elements I wanted to add are lots of storage, mft system, incorporating my new Sawstop table saw, accuracy is super important so im aiming for everything to be square flat and precise and if that's not enough I'd like it to look very cool.

Hi everyone, a customer brought me a sewing box which she had big plans for. she had already began the project by stripping some of the old finish but in the end decided she would need some help with the epoxy as she didn't have the time to finish the job.
This job had quite a bit of pressure as she wanted the buttons epoxying into the lid and the buttons had sentimental value meaning we only had 1 shot. In the end we were very happy with how the project turned out.
Hope you enjoyed the watch!

Dan did an excellent job with his first power tool half lap joint. #shorts #short #woodworkingDont Believe Me Believe My Friend Donald #shorts #shortkarlpopewoodcraft2023-11-16 | Massive thanks to my pal President Trump for his time and help making this video. #donald #donaldtrump #woodworking #tipsandtricks #short #shortsDo You Prefer Hand Joinery Or Power Tools #shorts #shortkarlpopewoodcraft2023-11-14 | A half lap joint involves joining two same-sized pieces of material by removing half the thickness of each piece where they connect. This creates a smooth, strong connection.
The name “half lap” derives from a “full lap” joint, which is simply laying one piece of wood over another and pinning them together with screws or nails. A full lap joint is so rarely used in woodworking that “lap joint” is more likely to mean a half lap.
Forming a half lap joint can be done with hand or power tools. Many woodworkers use a table saw or router to do most of the work, then clean up and shape the final lap with a chisel. #woodworking #karlpopewoodcraft #handjoinery #shorts #short #halflapRip Saw Restoration #short #shortskarlpopewoodcraft2023-11-09 | A ripsaw, or ripping saw, is a specialized handsaw for manually cutting wood in the direction of the grain. Ripsaws include a blade and a plastic or hardwood handle. The blade edge below the handle is the heel and the front end is the toe. The typical ripsaw is 26 inches in length with 5 teeth or points per inch. In comparison, a crosscut saw has twice as many teeth and makes a finer cut. #woodworking #shorts #shortHousing Joint By Hand No Power Tools #short #shortskarlpopewoodcraft2023-11-08 | A Housing Joint is used for fixing shelves and partitions into cabinets and book-cases for example. The Housing (aka Trench or Dado) is cut across the Grain to a width normally equal to the thickness of the shelf or partition it is to receive.Super Strong Butt Joint #short #shortskarlpopewoodcraft2023-11-07 | A butt joint is a wood joint in which the end of a piece of material is simply placed against another piece. The butt joint is the simplest joint. An unreinforced butt joint is also the weakest joint, as it provides a limited surface area for glueing and lacks any mechanical interlocking to resist external forces. It generally provides sufficient strength in most cases, particularly when fasteners are used. The butt joint is widely used in many applications due to its simplicity, notably in rough carpentry and construction. When adding dowels this increases the strength significantly.
