I can't tell you how much I really appreciate you taking the time to explain what you are doing. Every video that I watched they all just made the stuff and we had to figure out what they were doing. I'm disabled and someone just recently came up to me and asked me if I could start making Ash trees, but I have never done anything of such a project. I want to learn everything

[@eastwingvintagewoodworking4797]

Thank you for the kind words! Good luck on your woodworking journey! I will have more videos posted soon.

This man is a living legend 👍🔥🔥

[@michaellenorgant5079]

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!

[@itawad]

You are a perfectionist. Learned a lot from you 👍👍

[@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.

[@eastwingvintagewoodworking4797]

Thank you for the kind words and support! Much appreciated!

[@gailjohnson3544]

Fishing, that's what I'm talking about. A job well done sir

[@gailjohnson3544]

This is such a beautiful ashtray

[@theflyer4916]

So beautiful I’d hate to use it!😂

[@johncharletta6390]

Great job! Thanks for taking the time to walk everyone through the process.

what a great job. Its amazing how much skill and work that goes into this project

[@eastwingvintagewoodworking4797]

Thank you for the kind comment!

[@footlingjohnson8014]

Great video. Could you have used a bowl bit instead of the forstner bit to make the cigar channels?

[@eastwingvintagewoodworking4797]

Yes, actually that would be a good idea. Now that I make all of my cigar ashtrays with my CNC, using a bowel bit is exactly how I make them now. Next time I make one this way I’ll use the bowl bit for sure. Thanks for the question!

[@daniekvalentijn1075]

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

[@alyssa_d]

AmazIng job

[@aaronhill4992]

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

[@FLYLT]

Very 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.

[@Waylowsurf]

Very cool!!!!

[@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!

[@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.

[@Budkeywest]

Hi. What was the finish you used? Thanks!

[@eastwingvintagewoodworking4797]

Tongue oil.

[@molo2793]

Nice

[@larryhorowitz3059]

What size bit for the cigar tubes

[@ebernabeo]

1 inch bit

[@eastwingvintagewoodworking4797]

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.

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

[@richardfarwell6759]

"Smoke 'em if you Got 'em." Now where have I heard that phrase before? ;-D

[@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.

[@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

[@RobertCochrane-tj6kn]

In case of shipwreck your ashtray will float...

[@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.

[@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
