    Collection of 3d printing files relevant for woodworking

    I've been using this one for a coffee accessory wall: https://www.ukworkshop.co.uk/threads/latest-thing-you-have-printed-machined-cut.143272/post-1723253 It's pretty good, although sometimes a bit confusing trying to figure out what parts you need exactly.

    I need to rip some long board down to width for my current project, recently rearranged my workshop so I can use my workbench as an outfeed table, however infeed is still a bit iffy with long boards. So I knocked together a quick infeed support using some scraps (hence the odd cut out at the...

    Collection of 3d printing files relevant for woodworking

    Not my file but thought I'd share it as I found it super useful. I'm a big fan of modular systems, gridfinity being one of them. Problem is unelss I design my storage for it I often end up with odd sizes that don't fit into gridfinity units. Someone has created a fusion 350 file to...

    This is awesome, something I'd love to give leather craft a try some day.

    Flooring options for existing workshop

    Wow thanks all for the awesome replies and suggestions. If I was to go all in I think I'd have to hire a container of some sorts, but I think that may end up being too expensive overall. I imagine flooring tiles could be good if you get the correct ones, mine were fairly cheap ones from Amazon...

    Flooring options for existing workshop

    Do you have the OSB lying directly on top of the concrete? For some reason I had it in my mind I'd need to lay it on studs, not sure where I got that from though. If it can lay flat on the concrete, assuming I fill the worst gaps, then put down a vapour barrier, this might be way I go.

    Flooring options for existing workshop

    I'd love to be able to do that, but I can't think of anyway or anywhere to store the machinery. The only access to the garden is through a single narrow doorway. It might be possible if I dismantle my table saw, I'd have to take some measurements.

    Flooring options for existing workshop

    I'm looking to renovate my workshop this year, one of the things I want to improve is the flooring. My workshop is based in my garage and it has an uneven concrete floor, I've previously been using some padded flooring tiles which are fine until I need to more things around, they don't play...

    Think Kerf Riving Knife

    Hey, I have a set of Axminister thin kerf blades, with a width of 2.1mm, however these are too thin for my current riving knife. Can anyone recommend anywhere to get a thin riving knife from, or alternatively is it possible to make one yourself? Cheers.

    Post a photo of the last thing you turned

    I wanted to have a go at turning something to a specific size, so thought a stand for one of my amazon devices would be fun. Not the most practial and for the next one I'll make it lower profile, but you know what it fit's so I'm chuffed.

    Latest thing you have printed / machined / cut

    Printed myself a multiboard, really cool system loads of accessories and mounting options, I mounted it on some left over birch ply and then used a french cleat to mount that to the wall. Got a few more holders to add to it, but got the main things on there.

    Yeah MDF wouldn't have been my first choice, but should be fine the cups don't get put on there until after they've dried.

    I love this, there's something really satisfying about building mini workbenches.

    Latest thing you have printed / machined / cut

    Decided to spruce up my coffee machine a little with a top trivet. Spent a while playing around on: https://polygonia.design, before settling on this pattern, which I could have probably found a free vector of, but was fun to play with the software. Made from some a offcut of 6mm walnut...

    Lets see your wood

    Thanks for all the replies, it's an area I'm weak on so it's really interesting to hear others thoughts. It's definitely on the harder side.

    Lets see your wood

    Finally got round to planing a small section to see what it looks like, anyone know what wood this is? Thinking of using it for a coffee table build.

    I was using them as planing stops, so the force was being applied across the layer lines causing them to separate. Had a few split when removing from overly tight dog holes too.

    What's the strength like with Carbon Fibre ASA, never worked with it. When I was printing these in PLA I found I had to print them on their side so the layer lines ran vertically as they kept breaking on my when printed with layer lines horizontally. I didn't think I'd like textured build...
