This is not in tune!!! Beautiful yes, good job yes, but is not tuned!!! I’m musician, the xylophone is not in tune, you play real E when you suppose to be playing C. (That could be ok, because you create a xylophone en E) but then when you play the low notes (E G G E D G E in your suppose “C”) it’s out of tune. The xylophone it self is not tuned, in the low register sound soo weird

The coves on the back of the keys were never cut. I had coved some test pieces, but with the basic tuner I had it couldn’t differentiate the keys. There are professional tuners specific for key instruments but it was too expensive. This xylophone was a gift for my 1 week old son who’s now 4. He hasn’t complained about it but maybe if he ever does I’ll revisit the project.

P.S. Where do you suggest I look for the best air-dried White Oak? All that Home Dep carries is KD. I sure don't want that!
@kerrysmythe4506 2 ай бұрын
Thanks so much for your response. I tried yesterday, a water soak solution with Fabric Softener. The strips are 20" long 3" wide, and 1/8" thick. I used 2 strips of Hickory on the inside of the bend, and 1 strip of White Oak on the outside of the bend. Everything bent perfectly into place. However, as this is my first time, I'm sure I made mistakes prepping. For one thing when I removed the 3 strips from my jig this morning there was still moisture on the inside of the Strips. 2. I used YELLOW Glue! another mistake. These 3 strips are now on the jig with the Yellow glue. I'll check it out tomorrow. 3. There was still some visible moisture seen on the surface of the strips when I applied the Yellow Glue. I wasn't happy with this first try! Now that I have your valued advice and suggestions. I'll start again, and this time I'll cut 3 stirps using all White Oak. I cannot find any green wood in any type. I like the White oak however. What do you think about my use of the cold water solution? I have a steam box made, and it heats up to 212 Degrees, and I use 2-40 minute cycles. I think I will prefer to use the strips of 1/8" thickness rather than trying to bend a solid piece of 3/8" thick White Oak. The minimum with width for these stirrups is 3". I do use a wench that has a 3" wide belt, and its mounted to the table top just behind the jig. It does a wonderful job of pulling the wood around the jig. In fact coming out of the cold water solution I could bend it around by hand. However, I use the wench to hold the wood in place against the jig, then place dowel metal rods against the outside of the wood. This first try, is only a practice to see what I need to do, as I have no one with me to assist. Trial and error. Please, any advice you may wish to assist me with is greatly appreciated. As I said I am a disabled veteran, and this is a confidence builder. I hope I/ve explained all this in a reasonable manner.

It’s great that you got the bend. If you’re able to get 3 pieces that are 1/8” thick and then laminate them, that method is perfectly fine. Before taking them out of the jig, the pieces need to be dried. You can either wait a week to let them dry in the jig naturally or speed it up by making a drying kiln. A drying kiln is very simple, you just need a hot lamp, (either an incandescent bulb or halogen) and pink foam board around the piece. The bulb should be at least 10” away from the material (further away if using a halogen). Drying the pieces will reduce spring back and allow the wood to settle into its new form so it’s ready to be glued. It won’t take very long since they’re only 1/8” thick. In the winter, I use my wood stove to dry steam bends which works great. For buying air dried wood, I usually find suppliers on Facebook marketplace. There are a lot of Tree cutters on there that will often sell boards for cheap.
@kerrysmythe4506 2 ай бұрын
I really watching your methods. I am wanting to build my own saddle stirrups. I have a center jig made and have the dowel pins that fit into holes around the jig. However, I've tried using white and red oak by steaming, and water soaking. Each time I begin the bend from the top of the jig, the wood gives out around the first bend at the foot, or bottom of the stirrup. I happen to be using KD (kiln dried) wood. I am even cutting these into 1/8" stirps. However, the always give out? Am I making a mistake using KD wood? If so, where would I get wood that is not KD? I am a disabled veteran, so I am doing this as a confidence builder. Are you able to offer any suggestions. I steamed these strips (1/8") for 40 minutes plus at times over 212 degrees. I would much rather be able to do this COLD! Shape them using the yellow wood glue. The width of these strips are 3".
@JShawFurniture 2 ай бұрын
Hi Kerry, Kiln-dried wood is always more challenging to bend because the lignin (glue) inside of the wood has plasticized and hardened from the Kiln. Air-dried hasn't gone through that process, so it's much easier for bending. Red Oak is not good for steam bending, but white Oak is excellent. When you're steam bending, are you using a strap to reinforce the wood fibers while bending? Also, what are the lengths of the pieces? You definitely need a thin metal strap with the piece held in tension to get a successful bend. I would make the wood pieces longer for the bend and then cut them to size after so you have more leverage. I'm not too familiar with saddle stirrups, but because it will be used outdoors and get a lot of wear and tear, lamination might be the way to go. If you do go with a cold bent lamination, do not use yellow glue (Yellow glue can delaminate from humidity); instead, use epoxy or Unibond adhesives. It will be much stronger and will never delaminate.

Thanks for the comment, I should make a video and really dive deep into the steam bending process. The main rules are: 1. The Steam heat should be 200F 2. Wood should steam in the box for 1hr per 1" of thickness (pretty sure that's in the video) 3. Wood should be in tension as it bends. Ash, Oak and Beech bend best

Freshly cut loose pieces between the fence and the blade (whithout clearance space) are a great way to get hurt. Either use a spacer or push the fence away and measure some other way, man. Speaking from experience. Cheers!
@JShawFurniture 6 ай бұрын
I’m a professional fine furniture maker, with 20 years of experience on a table saw, no injuries. I appreciate your concern, but there was no instance where I would be injured. The one cut you’re probably referring to was the 1st one, cutting the 8’ mdf sheet, which was unorthodox because the waste piece is in the center and I let gravity remove it. But there was minimal chance of a kickback in that situation. If you’re talking about the crosscutting, I always use a stop block spacer, it may be hard to see from the angle of the video.

Sorry for this newbie question: why do you lay the tool flat on top of the work piece at 1:19?
@JShawFurniture 6 ай бұрын
It’s a very good question. I’m listening/feeling the vibrations the tool makes on the wood. If the sound is consistent and smooth then the wood is a full round cylinder. If the wood has flat surfaces on it the tool will bounce and make an uneven loud sound. This technique makes it so you don’t have stop the lathe to check if the wood is fully round.
