That’s a pretty OAKy desk lol but awesome job, turned out amazing and I imagine weighted more than 2 or 3 of me! Lol deskzilla is a fitting name, just gotta make sure desk Kong doesn’t get too close and it should last for decades hahah

Good Work,.

Thank you!

These are fire!

17” pizza cutter blade plasma cut from a salvaged HSS round tape cutter blade.

Works well, but prone to rusting if not kept dry.

Thank you so much!

You could coat in in a little olive oil or another food safe oil and that would give you a little
Protection, just like how they ship most metal components with a little layer of oil, but very cool piece, how’d your get the gap in the center

Lol I was gonna say mad skills cause that’s a damn near perfect circle radius, but that explains it

Picked up a WiFi/Bluetooth attic fan from the Homeless Despot for about $17 (normally about $130). I assumed something was broken, and it turned out easier to identify than I thought it would…

Let’s play “Spot the fried capacitor”:

This one was a 470uf, maybe 30v? I had a 470uf 50v in a drawer. Now the true question: attic or alternate use? :slight_smile:

Will be interesting to see how long electrolytic capacitors last in a Texas attic.

I joined DMS in summer 2019 to do this project :sweat_smile:. Finally had time to do it before I moved for a new job! Still have a couple things to do:

  1. Add dowels to the backrest joint and seat to connect the cone underneath

  2. Clean up the leg tenons a bit

  3. Fine sanding

  4. Coat in Danish Oil

  5. Give it a name (i’m open to suggestions :joy:)

Made with Maple, Mesquite, and Walnut

Being able to get to DMS this month has been very limited for me. I did manage to go last Saturday and yesterday to get some rings made for my mother and sisters birthdays.
I needed something small since I’m flying and not checking in laugage.
I made a verity of sizes so they are hooked up from thumb to pinky!

Thanks @sroriginals and @purpleporpoise for the classes!
