Thanks for posting. How thick is this foam and how thick is the wood backing?

Where are the free plans? Can someone send them to me.

If using them outdoors, waterproof them with a mixture of mineral spirits and 100% silicone. Inexpensive and very effective.

The m/t was a twisting force against the glue. The miter is 142% more surface area.

Thanks for sharing

I like her ears

Elmer's glue and H20 does the same thing as mod podge does here but, with very little odor. I use to do this as a kid l, but used balloons so popping it once dried was meant to be by design lol

Im not a bow person either and I love this. This was just what I needed!

Thanks for an excellent educational video. Your shop is pretty cool. Having a table saw injury is like a right of passage and a badge of honor for a DIY'er. Carry On Madame.

So, how is the thumb in 2024?

Old English scratch cover

What pleating hooks are you using here? Thanks for this! So helpful!

Cutting with miter saw is extremely dangerous

"Oh, by the way, I cut my thumb off."

RIP Thumb, wait, don't.

Your cat will love it...but it smells like glue....that smell will go away...love it!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

2:30 I love the moving dolly! I got 2 of them and they are such a very helpful thing around the house

Love it! I’m not a bow person easy! But could definitely do that! ☃️🎄

How is it doing now?

That would make an interesting ceiling hanging lamp!!!

Love it❤

The love for a cat 🐈 😻

Thanks for sharing. Keep your head up

wtf get a man to do that crap

Thank you so much!! Really useful 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼

Thank you!!! You’ve made it incredibly easy for me. Thank you for sharing.

Call me petty, but, there'r no springs in the box.

Hi, my hobby is woodworking and today I saw the video you made after you injured your finger. You were brave to make the video. I checked for a more recent video to see how you have faired. This was the next video I saw. I have had formal cabinet making training and have also injured fingers and and a thumb, so being trained isn't the complete answer. I injured my thumb on a planer similar to yours, but much larger than the one you use in your workshop. One of your other subscribers pointed out that you shouldn't plane pieces smaller than 12 inches, this is definitely correct. I noticed that there appears to be rust on the cast iron surfaces of your planer and bandsaw. It was rust on my planer that contributed to my thumb injury. If the cast iron surfaces of woodworking machines are rusty they add friction whilst you are pushing the wood. If you are exerting force to hold town the wood onto the table or against a fence the friction will be even greater. This can cause your hand to slip from the wood (my injury) or for your movement of the wood to be jerky or uncontrolled. There are multiple methods of cleaning the rust and controlling the re-immergence of rust. I use steel wool and a little automotive oil on a rag but wiped off afterwards. I wouldn't use a table saw to remove the timber for the fox's legs either. I would use a bandsaw also, if you are doing multiples there are methods such as using the fence and a stop to control the position and distance of the cuts. I used a belt sander mounted on a bench to trim the tops and bottoms of cabinet doors to fit the cabinet openings. It was much more controllable when the belt sander is mounted on its side and a "false" table (1 foot x 6 inches x 1/2" thick) screwed to the bench parallel to the travel of the belt and with 1/8 inch clearance from the belt. There is a principle in cabinet making of having a rest (pin or fence) firmly fixed, close to where the wood and power tool cutter meet. This is so you can more easily control the wood, by holding the wood against the rest as you introduce the wood to the cutter, particularly if the blade, cutter, drill bit or sanding belt has the ability to grab the wood and throw it out of position. So if the belt sander also had a fence, fixed on the false table at 90 degrees to the belt, you could sand the ends of timber square. If you had a fence on your drill press you could minimise the chance of the timber spinning if using a larger drill bit. good luck

Known three missing thumbs in my life to saws all three chaps ended up with a nick name nobby welcome to their club

didn't explain how the shade rolls up and down.......

Happens fast

My teacher at Tafe told the whole class "i want to shake everyone's hand with all your fingers still attached" If you haven't already, make yourself a pushstick, there's plenty of blueprints for them online

hi I hope you are doing well, I lost my thumb I am glad you didn't lost yours, my accident was exactly like yours but my reinplante didn't work

Wow. I did it wrong. Thank you!!!

The initial ER doctor should have known where you could go for proper care.

What materials did you use did you for holding it together

Hopping you are doing more well. I did a stupid my self and cut the nerve of my pointer finger at the base of my thumb. I have surgery a few days after the disaster, and while the nerve didn''t work correctly at first, because the surgeon reconnected the nerve it grew back after 15 years. He said if he didn't reattach it it might grow back at 5 times slower rate. I am 62 and once had a "dead" finger. It grew back. Please don't waste time rationalizing your accident. It happened. Your alive. When people like us who use dangerous tools live alone we have to think twice because we have to rescue ourselves, breath twice, think twice and listen to the little, tiny voice when it says, "I am not sure". Bless you and be wonderful..

Sorry the diy shades weren’t worth it, but I have to say that this is one of the easiest to understand diy Roman shade tutorials 👍🏻

So sorry this happened to you. It can happen to anyone. When I ripped half way through the joint and bone of my index finger I also didn’t feel any pain and kept expecting to for days after. I was using a table saw in too thin a room (porch) Ripping 2x4s in half using the doors to increase the space. I wasn’t even cutting at the time. I spun around and bounced my hand off a brand new carbide tip blade. As I said, the room was too small, and I was too close to the saw itself. To add insult to injury, when I took a taxi to the hospital, someone broke into my house while I was away. 35 years later, I can say that it functions quite well. This past year I have noticed that it is slowly creeping towards 100% with less numbness. I sold that old tablesaw years ago, but just last year I bought another jobsite one. Going into it with eyes wide open and safety front and center. By the way, when I was splitting those two by fours, I had the guard and riving knife off the saw. It just wasn’t possible to do what I needed to do with the guards on. Don’t give up !!

hope you heal well and all the best for the future, this is something that is do think about in general on my property as i live 30km from a small town on the east coast of Australia in a rural area so there's only the base hospital that's in town 30ish min away or over an hour to the larger hospital most of the time I'm on the property on my own and working either in my woodwork shop or in the paddocks

You're a lifesaver thank you 😊 I was wondering can I sand with 120 grit as well?

А сколько пошло веревк

My cat is watching this video with me with fascination lol 10/10 video! 😂💕🐾

After 65 years of using a table saw, the same thing happened to me. Nine months later I still have no memory of the moment that led to the accident. Your mention of the brain being on autopilot is exactly what happened to me. I did not feel any pain either nor did I bleed much. The only sensation I can recall was the sound of the blade hitting my thumb and the feeling of my hand being pushed back. When I looked at my left thumb I saw an 1/8 wide saw kerf halfway through my thumb located a half inch from the tip of my thumb. Fortunately I did not cut any bone. Nine months later I have only a faint scar and a slight dent on the bottom of the thumb. My permanent reminder is the nerve damage-I have very little sensation in my thumb tip which makes buttoning my shirt somewhat challenging. I got off lucky! Seeing your video, and sharing similar feelings, was quite a cathargic experience.

I just found out at today years old ..... A lot of American-grown cotton is now gmo engineered-meaning that it may have an issue as the capability to be bleached, due to its makeup. (It may still be dyeable, but, mileage may vary)......

Thank you!! Did not want to use anything with VOCs!

Thank you. I don’t think you can have safety in the shop on your mind too much. Or be reminded too much. I hope you have a speedy recovery. Again thank you for this video.

6:48 When did your sweatshirt turn purple?

I’m sorry you experienced this, my father went through same. He was shocked and saddened by what happened. He was an experienced woodworker and this changed everything. My thoughts and sympathy are with you. Get well soon
