You got all the tools and you know how to use them too. That's what you call a handy man!

[@mandyhavin]

thank you for the perfect "last minute wedding present" idea!

[@TheDadCave]

You’re welcome! I’m glad the video helped inspire you to come up with a gift idea. I made another Shotski video with some design improvements. Here is the link. kzbin.info/www/bejne/fqvTYXlsn8qLrLc Thank you for checking out my video as well!

@@TheDadCave I ended up just following this one so i could use disposable mini red solo cups. thanks again for the excellent tutorial.

[@TheDadCave]

Right on! It would be awesome to see a picture of it. I would like to feature it on my channel if you are willing.

[@CorysComedyChannel]

I'm busy I'm on your channel watching an up in coming KZbinr.

[@TheDadCave]

Just saw this comment, not sure how I missed it! Thanks for the support Cory! How are things coming along with your channel?

[@FranklinWoodWorks2016]

I heard about your channel on Russ' web show. You are certainly starting off you channel with skills it took me many months (years?) to develop. I wish you the best, and much success! Cheers!

[@TheDadCave]

Thanks Franklin for taking the time to check out my channel! I’m going to head over and check yours out as well!

[@joyceplater2347]

You're a genius ♥️♥️♥️♥️

[@TheDadCave]

That might be a bit over exaggerated but I appreciate you taking the time to comment.

[@crzysmg123]

Super nice! Thanks for the helpful video... keep them coming!!

[@TheDadCave]

Wu_Sam Thank you! It’s been hard to get another video done right now because of the holiday season but I will get one more up before the new year. Thanks for SUBSCRIBING! 👊😃

[@marlawilliams6806]

Very cool! 😏 Just a thought on your magnet idea. My suggestion is a magnet on the bottom of the shot glass and a magnet on the bottom of your hole. The ones that are about the size of a nickel. I’m going to have to make one of these! Lol!

[@TheDadCave]

That’s a very good idea! I was thinking absolutely about trying something like that for any I make in the future. I haven’t gotten a chance to try any new designs yet but I am thinking about doing another shot ski video with improvements to the magnets like you mentioned. Thank you so much for the feedback. If you haven’t subscribed yet I hope you do. If you did, I’m glad to have you on board!

[@luannapierce2544]

I think you made a nice shot ski. Not clear on what a Shot Ski is or what it does, how it is used. I get that it has to do with drinking. This is the first one I have seen. I found your helpful tips on how you did stuff, how do you store and organize your templates? I will have to go look up info on shot skis and educate myself. Keep uploading, you have a fun channel!

[@TheDadCave]

I didn’t know what they were either before I got requests to make them. Apparently, they are popular at weddings. You place a shot glass in each hole and then four people stand next to each other and lift the ski to drink the shot. I always drank my shots from a bar!

[@luannapierce2544]

@@TheDadCave THANKS, that explains a lot! thank you so much. It seems to be a way of expressing yourself in a new home for the memory of the wedding. I always drank my shots from a bar as well. Not that it happens often at all. We managed to do the simultaneous shot sitting next to each other at a bar. wow I have to go a nearly a half a decade back to remember doing shots.

[@jennsoucy9004]

What size shot glasses did you use

[@TheDadCave]

The shot glasses were 2 ounce glasses.

[@SteveDW]

one more question, do you sand the inside of the holes? if so, how?

[@TheDadCave]

I did sand them. I just took a small piece of sand paper and folded it. Then slid it inside the holes with my fingers. I wish I could say I had some high tech tool or gadgets to do it but I don’t. Just my primitive caveman fingers! Haha!

[@SteveDW]

@@TheDadCave perfect, time to get my caveman fingers to work!

[@TheDadCave]

@@SteveDW they work great as glue spreaders too! 🤣

[@matthewdawahare3792]

How did you make the finish on the second ski? That looks really cool!

[@TheDadCave]

I torched it lightly and then use boiled linseed oil and polyurethane for the finish.

[@courtneycollins4760]

I thought I recognized your channel and I was right! I said “I think this is the guy that made the shot ski” and it is! :) I still love this video. Your channel is awesome! And this video has over 10K views. Congrats!

[@TheDadCave]

😂 I never thought that would be my best performing video. But then again anything combining wood and alcohol always seems to be fun. I’m planning a second shot ski video with a couple of improvements. Thank you again for supporting my channel!

[@ChenzosWorld]

Great vid man. I can’t wait to make one of these myself. Subbed 😎🤙

Thank you for the comment and subscribing! I would love to see yours when you make it! Share it with me on Instagram or Facebook when you are done.

[@SteveDW]

how did you get the white lettering on the final product?

[@TheDadCave]

Just a stencil and a paint brush.

[@SteveDW]

@@TheDadCave ahh thanks for the reply

Great looking skis and I can’t wait to see what you make in the rest of 2020.

[@TheDadCave]

Thank you! I’m looking forward to this year myself. I think the project I’m most excited for starting this year is my wife’s bar.

[@MikeTheMaker1]

[@TheDadCave]

I’m still working out the design but I will tell you that the top of the bar will have talavera tiles.

[@jeddahsalera3496]

great video! what gloss did you use over the stain?

[@TheDadCave]

I used and oil based polyurethane. It smells awful but the finish looks amazing! Thank you for the comment and subscribing!

[@jeddahsalera3496]

@@TheDadCave thank you so much!

[@TheDadCave]

jeddah salera my pleasure!

[@benresnick2320]

@@TheDadCave what color stain did you use?

[@TheDadCave]

I used American Walnut from Varathayne and the other one was a boiled linseed oil. Both had an oil based polyurethane.
