The pens have all been claimed! Thanks for watching!!

[@T_B]

Dang. Just woke up for the night shift and saw the video. I rushed to "order" one...and then read your msg here (all have been claimed). Even though I didn't get one, thanks for doing this for the people that did. It's pretty cool of you to do that. 👍🏻

[@JoshWrightWoodworking]

@@T_B thanks for watching! I want to do stuff like this more often so you'll probably get another chance.

[@wilsonramosvelezjr]

Nice video, Awesome Job. Send me your link to get your Products. Thx...

[@JeffreyZirbes]

Any more pens? Brilliant!

[@motaman8074]

Hey Josh, I just received my pen. It's awesome. Thanks so much. I'm definitely gonna try the bit hack. Also, thanks for the bonus pen holder! Matt

[@JustinShaedo]

This has to be the most unique woodworking channel that also puts out incredible results.

[@jerishull1860]

I love the way you are combining woodworking with art. Speaks to my heart.

[@parkinsonga3092]

This is probably the most interesting and useful video that I have seen in a long time. I'm going to have a think about incorporating some of your ideas into a few of my projects. I'm thinking custom feet for my kitchen boards. Thank you.

[@MichiganHiker]

I love the creativity you have shown in this! Excellent and I'm glad to see all the other commenters are saying the same. Creativity is at a premium in this world sometimes. Thank you for adding to it.

[@roxanne9651]

Awesome job thanks for sharing the making of your specialty bits. 💕🇨🇦👏👍

[@k9insomniac783]

I guess I’ve never really thought about reshaping the old hole spade bits. That’s pretty clever. I could use this on some of my wood turning projects. Good video man.

[@PartyOf8Please]

That little table saw is so cute! GI Joe needs one! I’m just messing with you - for the price you paid, it’s perfect for what you’re using it for. It was worth the $25 you spent. The idea of using spade bits to get different cut ideas is pretty slick. Your brain clearly works on a different level!!

[@Vikingwerk]

This is honestly a brilliant trick, and I’ll be using it!

[@kameljoe21]

Oh how those went so fast. Super cool. I am always impressed by what you do.

[@kameljoe21]

I do have to say that I am quite happy with the light that I have!

[@mrsunyofficial]

Very useful inventions

[@donaldshimkus539]

Wow, you've taken my idea to a new level. I reshaped spade bits some 35 yrs ago to make small parts and even rosettes in wood trim. I once made one into a fly cutter and used it in my drill press to flatten a twisted piece of wood (I didn't have a planer or table saw then). Thanks for sharing your ideas.

[@simonwatson9730]

Really inspiring and interesting. Thanks for sharing

[@JGerm]

Out - phucking - standing !!! Just Awesome !

Watching you from Scotland, Awesome work.

I’ll bet every teacher you ever had loved having you as a student! Very inventive! “Some people see things as they are, and say why. I dream of things that never were, and say why not?” George Bernard Shaw

[@custos3249]

You'd think, but these days, it's the ones that sit there, nod, and score well that get all the attention because nonstandard answers mean the teacher has to do more work. Plus later institutions only care about what can be translated into their metrics.

[@brandoncrimmins6296]

In my experience this type of creativity is HEAVILY shunned and frowned upon.

[@james10739]

Id doubt teachers find that useful

[@joeltower5964]

I gotta say, I'm lovin the ingenuity!

[@ifiwooddesigns]

Absolutely brilliant as always. The reason I enjoy your channel is that you create unique and interesting projects. Normal is so boring. Keep up the great work and would appreciate more tips and tricks of yours.

[@mattedwards4533]

I enjoy seeing people think out of the box! You gave me the idea on how to make wheels for small toys. Thanks!

[@lisacausey4773]

I thought this was super creative and the pens looked awesome!

[@Scott-gf5tz]

Your pens are awesome and I'm sorry I couldn't claim one, but coming up with the idea of modifying HF paddle bits and creating the sections of the pens has inspired me to get back into woodworking. Thank you and thank you for posting such a great, detailed video.

[@harvey195]

Hi Josh, I like that you use this method to make your shaped pieces, I've used this in the past to make door frame rosettes to match the ones already in my house. This method takes patience, and a steady hand or your bit comes out completely unbalanced. Good work.

[@rhondahall6485]

I like watching what you come up with. The pens came out very nice. Thanks for sharing.

[@JoshWrightWoodworking]

Glad you like them! Thanks for watching

[@Rick-Williams59]

Awesome work young man.

[@markgarland9000]

Very smart and creative! Made me think of a time when I cut the tines off of a dinner fork to 'scrape mould' a replacement wood trim piece for a dining room table. Thumbs Up!

[@AB-C1]

Nice job 👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇬🇧

[@miggythepiggy141]

Pretty neat idea and set up for potential mass production of pens! Keep up the great work your videos are awesome

[@1pcfred]

I'm impressed you can freehand those bit shapes so good. I've customized a few bits but nothing this ambitious.

[@blktip]

That is a great out of the box idea for creating a new of doing the same old jod. And you've given me new information on what to do with all those old spade bits just sitting in a drawer. Ohhh and BTW, sure... I'll accept a pen.

[@ToolsAndHobbyTV]

Aaw, that itty bitty saw is cute :D

[@norm5785]

Very cool idea. Thank you for sharing. Definitely do not need a lathe to make interesting pens. Everyone stay safe, warm, happy and healthy. From Henrico County Virginia

[@cabman86]

Pretty cool process!

[@OpheliaMunn-Goins]

Awesome, I enjoyed watching.

[@proylea1]

Well done, love that idea, just looks like fun to try 😊

[@TwinPhoenix666]

Love your concept and the execution! Neat technique, man

[@globyois]

Very nice! Great idea.

[@TungaloyTim]

Great job! Very well done. These types of form-tools are used all the time in machining operations for metal. Haven’t seen this done by hand for woodworking though. You earned a follow! 🤛🤛

[@DanielHernandez-uj6po]

Very clever! Well done.

[@ryanm2214]

Pretty neat bud, thanks for sharing.

[@Juangaba]

Good idea for a quick and for repeatability

[@JFirn86Q]

Neat idea! Thanks for sharing

[@bwanakitame]

You can make tapered holes the same way. Grind the sides of a paddle bit to the angle you want, cut the shaft short. clamp your workpiece very tight. Since your bit is cutting on the sides, grind it accordingly. Thanks for sharing this!! Very inventive.

[@54mgtf22]

Great idea 👍

[@pocket83squared]

Cool stuff. Thanks.

[@kennethomeara9848]

Very cool!

[@PCaggy1974]

really nice idea. good job

[@JazmineCollins-n3c]

Amazing video straight to the point did

[@shaunpapworth4269]

love it i'm going to make myself some of those drill bits thanks

[@gottabeme792]

Amazing 😀👍

[@alanevery215]

Brilliant! Thanks.

[@chrisc3170]

Man that is cool and good for you thinking outside the box.

[@seanwinston8338]

You should experiment with the lathe like you do with all of your other tools. I would love to see what you could come up with! Also, a bandsaw might be easier to release all of the small pieces from the slab.

[@JoshWrightWoodworking]

I agree the band saw would be easier to cut the peices free but I don't have a fence on my bandsaw and lack the steady hand to cut straight lol. As for the lathe, I have filmed some stuff but I don't think it fits with this channel all that well. I'm probably gonna start a second channel just for lathe stuff.

[@seanwinston8338]

@JoshWrightWoodworking that would be great! Looking forward to it!

[@bengman95]

Having the last name of Wright and making pens is just too fitting 😁

[@marlenemcrae4125]

fine minds are hard to find, well done sir.

[@MrTiger243]

Good job sir.

[@scottquigley3887]

Awesome! Way Cool!

Interesting. Thanks.

[@holliday72889]

Guessing and checking. The best way to create something

[@tombaker3794]

AWESOME 👌

[@zyamadeadborn1785]

These tiny underpowered table saws can actually do some pretty serious cutting. I used mine (24V DC, 94 watts, 4" blade) for cutting hardwood floor boards around 3/4" thick. Slow but doable.

[@JoshWrightWoodworking]

Did you buy the harbor freight mini saw or did you get a different brand?

[@zyamadeadborn1785]

@@JoshWrightWoodworking no, I'm not from US, so some cheap saw from aliexpress.

[@Pete.Ty1]

👍👍👍.Thanks

[@SensationalTide]

Greay work nice 👌

[@benisilva3367]

Nice work from east tx

[@gregpaul6480]

Awesome

[@duczman76]

can i also use a customized spade bit for rounding up handle ends?

[@magicworldbyjorg]

,a cool video keep up the great content.. Thank you……

[@carolinehawkins1105]

This could be a useful way to make small toy wheels. I've re-sized one of these bits by filing, but hadnt thought of shaping one like this.

[@1pcfred]

Yeah I've made custom diameters out of spade bits and I thought that was pretty adventurous. What's going on here is a whole other level.

[@mikerider8540]

Enjoy the out of the box thinking.👍

[@terrymcclartysr9796]

Any left, lol. Awesome work

[@razor3151]

Cool.

[@marcushall4999]

Good on ya mate you look like you’re having fun 👻

[@maxm9960]

Brilliant work as always Josh! Although... you just really don't want to use a lathe do you...

[@JoshWrightWoodworking]

🤣

[@doraramirez595]

You keep amazing me!

[@anthonystroud8615]

You should try to sell the designs for the drill bits to diablo or another manufacturer lol

[@bwanakitame]

I should have added that you MUST have a backer board under the piece to keep the bit stable on break out.

[@inquisitive980]

Just think of what you could do with a Harbor Freight bit and a wire edm😀

[@numbersabcdefg]

Is fairly 90 degrees better? Was an Angle bevel any better or negligible?

[@JoshWrightWoodworking]

Angled bevel seems to cut a little better but it also dulls quicker and can be more difficult to re-sharpen. I kinda like 90 degrees better but both should cut fine

[@nikburton9264]

Did you ever put a keel on your boat?

[@christopherleblanc9599]

there no wrong way if the end result is achieved kudos for being different

[@augustineschaefer5522]

How did you make the drill work while sanding with 2 hands?

[@JoshWrightWoodworking]

Clamped the trigger down

[@saggioculo5386]

Not everyone has a lathe...so yeah this video is awesome.

[@johnrhodez6829]

So nice to see that it was a 1 1/2" bit, none of this 'forn muck"!

[@JakePlisskin12]

I'm buying one of those mini table saws for sure. My 5 year old is going to love it. Haha just kidding. I'm gonna wait till he's 7 or so. Either way tho I want one. For little things.

[@ejh237]

This is brilliant!!! I have a TON of old spade bits (good metal)... which now actually have a purpose! thank you! #IQ200

[@TheParkAttendant]

Darn! Almost made it. But at least I staid for the end.

[@JoshWrightWoodworking]

Really appreciate it, I plan on doing more giveaways in the future so hopefully you will have another chance

African Blackwood pen ??

[@FrustratedBaboon]

The file called a diamond file has the diamond pattern on it, it is not coated with any diamond material fyi.

[@notmyacount781]

So what's the other video to the end on how you make make pins I would like to buy one even if I can't get one for free you spend your time and effort in that and I honor that that is what American craftsmanship is about

[@melodywilson5255]

Oh man! Too late too the game! You are such an engineer.

[@1man1guitarletsgo]

This is interesting and creative, but wouldn't it be easier (and the outcome better) to just use a wood turning lathe?

[@twistedhillbilly6157]

So,, no concern for the quill bearings???

[@FrustratedBaboon]

Don't look at it as destroying the bits, you are creating tools to make pens. What you can do is if you can find a way to braze carbide with metal you can make your cutting tools with higher rpm to make smoother cuts without burning and chipping the wood.

[@AReasonablePerspective]

I'm guessing you're not affiliated with WARRIOR. If you are it is definitely a new model 😂

[@patshipp9195]

💖💖🙏🙏👍👍🙏🙏💖💖

[@unionse7en]

a type of "form" tool

[@ShedDwellerMakerandRepairer]

No thanks. If one of those gives out, you've got shrapnel flying at you.

[@1pcfred]

Actually that drill bit is going about 200 times more slowly than sharpnel flies. So no not like shrapnel at all. But the splinter likely would be larger. So you may be dealing with more foot pounds of force? Still, unless you get hit in a really vulnerable spot you're probably going to be OK. Really the odds of it flying towards you and actually hitting you at all are less than 50/50 too. I'll tell you what is most likely to happen. A piece would break off and just embed itself in the wood. Because you'd probably be drilling when it failed.

[@onefifthtoofifthwedfifthbr5371]
