This has got to be my next project. Ive seen a couple cigar ashtray builds on youtube now, and I like yours the best. Thank you for sharing your thoughts and techniques.

[@eastwingvintagewoodworking4797]

Thank you for the comment and kind words. Good luck with your project!

[@haroldperkins4155]

I made one using your design; just out of 2x12s but it works. Final dimensions 8x8x2.5. Finished it with cutting board oil with wax and then hand rubbed bees wax. Thanks

[@eastwingvintagewoodworking4797]

Thanks!

[@jgstill1]

You have a good design sense and your skills are great. You did an even better job teaching us how to make this ashtray. Thankyou.

Very Nice

[@chrismartinez1808]

I just watched this video I’m hoping the next video is you trying to go fishing and having to build a wooden boat

[@daniekvalentijn1075]

I wish I could make that over here in the Netherlands😍

[@DC-wb3yt]

Very interesting comment. What stops you from building this in the Netherlands?

[@molo2793]

Nice

[@snoogcity]

Just discovered your channel . I want to start woodworking. Anyway you could do a video for must have tools ? Thank you and God Bless.

[@aaronhill4992]

Please how much would it cost to get one just like this one

[@DC-wb3yt]

Great video! I'm in the middle of making your design, although I have to admit, I started with a 2 x 10 to practice with a piece of Teak for the center pieces. Quick question if you don't mind. When you cut the 45 degree angles what blade are you using don't want to splinter the cigar notches. thanks this is an awesome video, I can't wait to build the confidence to use higher grade hard wood.

[@eastwingvintagewoodworking4797]

Thank you!! I’m using an 80 tooth thin kerf blade by Diablo. No guarantee not to experience blow out…but the sharper the blade the better. Hope this helps and good luck!

[@deelishbites]

Great video! Going to definately try this for a gift. Do you mind, what speed did you use on the drill press when hogging out the material?

[@eastwingvintagewoodworking4797]

Thank you for the kind words! If I recall correctly The speed was below 1000 revolutions per minute. The bigger the bit the slower the revolutions. As I mentioned in the video take your time during that process don’t press too hard on the drill. Press, let the bit do the work. Good luck. Hope it turns out well!

You just got a sub

Thanks!!! 😃

Man we're just alike i like holding poles too

[@claiselden6554]

What is the name of the piece you connects to your router to make the circle ?

[@eastwingvintagewoodworking4797]

It’s called a circle cutting jig.

[@larryhorowitz3059]

What size bit for the cigar tubes

[@ebernabeo]

1 inch bit

[@Countryboy246]

I do you have plans as would like to buy them if you do plz

[@eastwingvintagewoodworking4797]

Sorry for my late response. No, no plans… I would suggest you figure out what size ashtray you want then follow the video.

[@Countryboy246]

@@eastwingvintagewoodworking4797 great video though sir from cigar smoker to another

[@kevinkelley332]

I too make bowls and cigar ashtrays not to your degree of craftsmanship. I'm curious how or what method you used to remove/sand out the center point dimple that is created using a forstner bit?

[@eastwingvintagewoodworking4797]

I use the bowl bit in my router to go deep enough to remove those dimples created by the Forster bit.

What diameter of circle??

[@eastwingvintagewoodworking4797]

6.5 inches. Thanks!

[@TRAXRIPPER]

Im not big on fishing, i love catching and hate waiting! 4 cigars in that ashtray just from my observation could leave one confused to the point of conversation, from masterful ways to set baiting and wind up hooked in one that shares a distant relation through a collaboration of nations where the objective operation is of world domination! Just a crazy creation of my wild ass imagination! Pay it no mind cause when mine gets down to start racing its just a given fact the pole position im taking! Lmfao

[@creeplife2802]

Go online and order an xps light for your 779

[@eastwingvintagewoodworking4797]

Thank you for the suggestion! Much appreciated!

[@creeplife2802]

@Eastwing Vintage Woodworking I bought my saw at the back of my home depot for 275, got the light for 50 bucks. Now it's just like the dws780 lol but I didn't spend 650

[@creeplife2802]

@@eastwingvintagewoodworking4797 I need to start uploading videos when I make things already. I'm in Southern Cali as well🌴

[@JoeLazzara]

​@creep life Hell yeah, I did the same thing to my Dewalt and it was the best upgrade I could've done. That shadow line is great. Very easy to install too.
