 Speaker Stands
Hi Folks,
I've started a small project for a friend and really have no idea what I'm doing. All I know for sure is I'm putting one foot in front of the other and it seems to be working, not the best way to plan but I've had the idea of how to do this in my head for quite a while (he asked if I would do this about 6 months ago).
I've added some pictures (hopefully ala Harry) because if I show you the finished product without some kind of photo shoot, well, you know Harry....especially after I've hinted at others a photo shoot would be nice.
I just got a new jointer, benchtop model for $99.....sale at Canadian Tire....I don't need the very best tools so they've helped outfit quite a few of my tools.
I've been using the router, planar, band saw, miter saw and table saw to build these. What's left to do before finishing is pare off the excess inlay flush to the surfaces of the bottom, top and risers. I will need to inset the riser pieces into the top and bottom but first I'll have to round the edges for a nice smooth finish. Sanding will come before they are glued into the base/top.
It has been fun so far, started this yesterday morning (Saturday) and have been enjoying my first major foray into the shed this summer.
Well, that's long enough, I hope you enjoy the pics and thanks very much for having a look.
