You suck oldtimer

[@BillSinWorkshop]

Very cool design Tim. Also beautiful combination of materials

[@timsway]

thank you!

[@phil.pinsky]

Fantastic project! Love the mixed materials

[@timsway]

thanks. this went through a few inceptions before I came to this. The others weren't so nice.

[@CarlJacobson]

Great design Tim, I really enjoyed the video.

[@timsway]

Carl Jacobson thanks Carl!!

[@charlotteandavril]

one of the first projects where i liked the finished product as much as i liked the video. and best product produced yet!!!

[@timsway]

sticks and stones thank you very much!

[@cpickslay]

Very nice work, Mr. Sway. I will forever think of my skilsaw as the carry-on saw now.

[@timsway]

I had to leave that in. I love hearing his perspective on things. It's usually pretty spot on.

[@andrewreid4337]

I don't know what I like more, the project, the Maxwax or the lazy Suzy spinning display at the end!

[@timsway]

i need to motorize the display next :)

[@YouCanMakeThisToo]

Great concept. I really liked your technique for ripping those small pieces and steaming the wood.

[@timsway]

YouCanMakeThisToo it's safer than going against the fence. thanks!

[@YouCanMakeThisToo]

tim sway that sure is safer. That's the first jig I've seen that looks like it gives consistent results though.. not that I've looked hard, haha. I like that it registers in the miter slot.

[@ChristopherMCraig]

My condolences to you and your family.

[@artconnolly9519]

Thanks for my woodworking Xmas "fix" Awesome as always and hope you and your family had a wonderful holiday.

[@veepsgarage]

Great build! I might attempt to build one of those. Can't beat the look of wood and steel together!

[@opasworkshop8373]

Great job Tim,turned out awesome my friend.

[@timsway]

Opa's Workshop thanks Opa!!

[@BetsWooD]

[@RichardMartin]

That's really nice. The oak goes really well with the steel, and a cool design. 👍🏻

[@timsway]

thank you

[@luant12345]

Great job Tim! Looks great! Merry Christmas!

[@timsway]

thanks man, same to you!!

[@AaronVozzolo]

What a cool idea! I need to try some steam bending! That 6x8 ship post will yield you many nice projects I suspect! This video really shows the added challenge of reclaiming, well done!

[@timsway]

Indiana Work Shop Jones thanks bro. it was a lot of fun

[@davebauerart]

Really nice. I better get started making stuff now for next Christmas.

[@timsway]

No time like the "present."

[@houtjeboom]

Great lookong stand. Merry Christmas.

[@timsway]

Houtje Boom - Be Creative thanks. same to you!

[@LetsPrepTogether]

Awesome design!

[@timsway]

Alex 2Q thank you!!

[@ranjdall]

It's a work of art. Love the design

[@timsway]

Thanks man!

[@dtb4379]

So neat! Love the look of the two materials in the end :) Keep up the good work!

[@timsway]

thanks!!

[@Mitermikeswoodshop]

nice job Tim. cool idea.

[@matt_williams1015]

Really nice design, Tim!

[@TheJopelletier]

Wow I really like the result!!

[@timsway]

thank you!

[@FeralBoyKnives]

Wow Tim, that turned out great.

[@timsway]

So did you :)

[@FeralBoyKnives]

tim sway aww shucks

[@AdventuresInDIY]

Awesome look! Were you able to get enough pressure on the wood strips to not have voids? Great technique cutting those strips evenly on the tablesaw.

[@timsway]

AdventuresInDIY there are a few voids but they mostly close up when I assembled.. I put a little wood putty on a couple. I definitely have a lot to learn about steaming )and obviously my setup is lacking ;) thanks!

[@AdventuresInDIY]

It's all an experiment. I'm working that way too. Final product still looks sweet.

[@timsway]

Exactly. I already know how to make the stuff I've made already... :)

[@fabiz8602]

Looks great

[@KagedBooks]

That was one beastly piece of wood. Cool idea.

[@johnfithian-franks8276]

Another Great video, That was a massive chunk of wood to start with, I don't think you could have got a bigger piece unless you cut down a tree first. A Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you and your family.

[@timsway]

I think it weighs more than me! Same to you, John

[@AYoungMansWorkshop]

Very neat project, I learned a lot just from watching!

[@timsway]

Awesome!! I guess that's the point :) thank you

[@MccaneWoodcrafts]

did I hear a little reclaimed audio in the background? great job. love how you are teaching Vance.

[@timsway]

Yes, I have been known to listen to that podcast :)

[@802Leith]

Happy New Year Tim!

[@timsway]

same to you

[@WoodenCreationz]

Very nice Tim! I laughed quite hard at the chainsaw

[@timsway]

that damn thing! starts every time, until I have a camera rolling...

[@willemkossen]

Great! Merry Christmas

[@timsway]

thanks! same to you amigo

[@JoshmanJoyce]

Love it! Happy Christmas to you and yours tim!

[@timsway]

thank you. same to you.

[@666tonsofsquirrels]

Well that just look delightful; Great job.

[@Cactusworkshopchannel]

Suuuuper cool design man!

[@timsway]

Cactus! workshop thank you bro

[@LivefreeanddiyTv]

Looks very nice! Good work. 🤓👍🏼

[@timsway]

thanks!

[@onetwotimo]

awesome headphone stand design. liked and subbed. keep making great content!

[@timsway]

thanks new friend!! This was my second attempt at a stand. my first looked like a crappy joiner's mallet nailed to a block of wood :)

[@sgsax]

Ah, the Ernestina keeps on giving. You must have at least half of the ship in your stock. Another nice gift from the old broad. :)

[@timsway]

seems that way but I barely have an percentage of it. those boats are huge! another video coming soon.

[@claterpult]

Love the look of that wood. Did you finally get your chain saw started? Merry Holidays!

[@timsway]

not yet. but I haven't tried again, either :-p

[@claterpult]

tim sway maybe it needs gas? ;)

[@jnieto19]

Loved the Social D in the background early in the video

[@timsway]

Lots of Social D in my shop :)

[@Xyienced]

I love the K.I.S.S. bent lamination chamber. good stuff

[@timsway]

It seems to work fairly well. I may develop it ;)

[@pascalsurprenant7249]

awesome job and merry xmas to you and your family and be safe

[@timsway]

thank you. Same to you my friend!

[@WilliamLutesMaker]

In the words of Keith Partridge..... I THINK I LOVE YOU 😘 WELL DONE !

[@Mikhandmaker]

Great proyetc Tim!👏👏

[@jamieroberts6345]

what was the blue device you used to rip the laminations on the saw?

[@timsway]

Jamie Roberts it's a Rockler product for setting specific width on the opposite side of the blade. so you adjust your fence between cuts. It works easier than building your own stop but not necessary.

[@WildmanTech]

Thats a great take on the fisk idea.

[@timsway]

thanks! I searched "headphone stand" and that was my fav design, so I thought I'd try to develop it, a la "sway." :)

[@donjohnmontana]

Howdy Tim, Not sure why the comments are disabled on your model boat build, but that is a great build, both sentimental and skillful. Great music also my friend. Thanks so much for your inspiring vids!! Don John

[@PaulMeyette]

LOVE that wood!

[@azyfloof]

Love the use of the plastic tube to create a steam tunnel :D That's genius! I'm gonna use that! Also never knew you could glue wood while it's wet :O Definitely learnt a couple things here, thanks Tim! Great video, and great build :D

[@timsway]

Azayles thanks. the steamer works OK and I think it glues better and faster dry, but it seemed to work :)

[@stanleyshostak2737]

I was wondering about that too, was that just regular wood glue or did you use a tightbond 3, the water resistant stuff?

[@timsway]

regular wood glue. it took a while to dry. I figure because the water AND the glue needed to dry, y'know?

[@azyfloof]

tim sway I suppose it's not much different to paper mache, if the water mixes with the glue at all :)

[@timsway]

Well put

[@paulbuckeljr8870]

Love that old/slow growth timber. Tough as nails. Carry on sidewinder! What airline do you use Vance? lol Merry Christmas to you and your family Tim.

[@timsway]

don't you have a carry-on circ saw when you fly?

[@paulbuckeljr8870]

Haven't flown since 1998!

[@scotthaun8582]

VERY COOL!

[@thedrubaru]

Great design but that 3TIM branding really steals the show!

[@timsway]

HAHA! good eye. I like sneaking "easter eggs" in :)

[@heypockyway6652]

Great Tim. Was the oak IN the water or just steamed?

[@timsway]

It was directly on the water, but really only the bottom few inches. It got pretty wet!

[@jakoball]

nice stand! I was hoping you would put in dowels instead of bolts thow...

[@timsway]

thanks! someone on reddit suggested rivets which I think would be the best idea.

[@timsway]

BeardedManPhotograph yes, those would look pretty cool. as an upcycled/trash picker I forget to check for that new, store-bought element that'll take it over the top.

[@AngelLuisTrinidad]

Very nice.

[@timsway]

Thank you Angel!!

[@ChicoMillion]

Very cool

[@timsway]

ChicoMillion thanks!

[@BlackBeardProjects]

Great! I'm sure she loved it! :)

[@timsway]

thank you!

[@HABU]

This came out really nice bro! Merry xmas to you and yours!

[@timsway]

Thank you!! Same to you, bro

[@herberthoppe68]

nice idea... but the screws make it look cheap to me.... i would make the wood clamp into the metal stand invisible... i think it would make it look more elegant

[@timsway]

Herbert Hoppe someone else suggested rivets and as soon as they did I regretted the bolts and wished I thought of that! next time.

[@herberthoppe68]

tim sway how ever.... pretty nice... i love it

[@markfoster8603]

cool design nonetheless! cool end product. I have also wrestled with a huge chunk of wood. Pecan felled in Katrina. Chainsaw, handsaw, axe, foot...

[@timsway]

ha! it's worth it.

[@SuperiorEtchworx]

The bolts worked for me . I might have filed them down to the nuts and made sure that the hex flats all had the same orientation.

[@BradDudenhoffer]

Very cool. It's weird how that tablesaw only works in fast-forward. :)

[@timsway]

2 speeds: fast and stop :)

[@JackmanWorks]

Super snazzy!

[@Wackywoodworks]

Nice... (I am man of few words... lol)

[@xrookie650]

Why all the coolness in your creativity? Kinda lame that you would do that and make me want to get out and make something awesome.

[@timsway]

Garage Dad hahaha! cute. thanks man.

[@conica68]

Tanto trabajo para esa porquería
