Wen Lunchbox Planer Review YouTube video by Woodworking Journeys

New video up! I share my thoughts on Wen's thickness planer.

Mazel tov!

😂😂😂

Yeah, I tried that today. Wouldn't go on. Felt like it kept wanting to go on cross threaded. But, it wasn't a jam nut either. No idea if that matters.

Can't hurt to try 🤷‍♂️

Oh Yeah GIF ALT: Oh Yeah GIF

This is not new behavior. AI is just the newest way to sell lies to the news outlets.

Journalistic ethics have gone the way of the dodo.

Ratings are king. Ratings are all that matter. We're living in the reality of Network.

Well, another important painful, but not serious lesson learned 🫤

Now I'll pop it in vacuum bags, and let it sit for a few months, just to suffocate any critter that might be lurking inside. I'm SO looking forward to turning all this!

I feel, perhaps for the first time ever, like I've discovered a secret treasure. I cut up late log and the whole thing, like 10-12', is spalted through and through.

I gave up on Secret Lairs years ago. It's a product for whales and scalpers, not for players. Wizards has quite intentionally made it so.

I'm hoping someone can help me.

I lost the arbor nut for my Wen 10" jobsite saw, and I'm having a devil of a time replacing it. No one has it for sale, the manufacturer is out of stock and told me it was a "standard 5/8" nut", which is no help at all

Silicone Mold Making Redux YouTube video by Woodworking Journeys

Fun new video up today, where I walk you through how to make custom silicone molds for casting resin, which can be used for pen blanks, charcuterie boards, etc. It's easy and a handy skill to have in your tool kit.

Taking the trash out this morning, I noticed a reasonably big fallen branch. I've wanted to try wet wood turning, so I figured why not?

Holy Hana! This wood is gorgeous! I'm renting a chainsaw tomorrow and chopping up the rest of it!

Longer videos every other Monday, but I've been spamming turning videos daily for a bit.

Another two axis turning experiment. A little rough, but I'm pleased with it.

Seriously, I should just rename my YouTube channel to "The Wen Show", LOL!

My first go at both multi-axis turning and a Christmas ornament. It's only poplar, so it's not all that exciting to look at, but I'm pleased with the results.

I was among the "working poor" for many years, raising my kids as a single Dad.

A living wage and government supported child care would have kept me off both food stamps, and medicaid.

Worse than that, it's out of stock with Wen, and nobody, I mean NOBODY has one for sale. Not Amazon. Not eBay. No one.

Y'ever have one of those days when life is kicking you in the balls and just won't stop? I dropped the arbor nut for my Wen table saw. It *should* have just dropped into the catch pan, which is what it's done every other time. Nope, it vanished through an interdimensional portal. #woodworking

This will end in violence.

Crappy plastic knob cracked, so I gave it what it should have had in the first place, a hand wheel.
