That leopardwood with the dye and stain would be pretty epic

Hey tigersharkdude, was wondering if you would consider this website as a source for your awesome rests?

http://www.woodworkerssource.com/

I'm not sure if the pricing is right for you. I guess I'm just trying to help you find some sources to open up the possibilities

Definitely considering an option 3 walnut rest with no stain. I'm just waiting on shipment of my TKL board so I can let you know exact measurements =)

I like that website, but shipping would be outrageous (I don't even want to know what an 8' x 10" x 4/4 piece would cost to ship)

cmadrid · « **Reply #152 on:** Thu, 03 July 2014, 15:20:04 »

Looks like a lot of the stuff there is priced with shipping included

Now.. this leopard wood

Now.. this leopard wood

$25 shipping for a 4' board of leapord wood

I recently found a lumber store that is somewhat close to me, and on Saturday I am going to try to go down there and get some prices

cmadrid · « **Reply #155 on:** Thu, 03 July 2014, 15:43:09 »

Shipping included if you want to buy like $150 of it.. seems like a lot of stock to get tho >_>

Cool on the local-ish lumber store! Let us know if you see any interesting woods there

there website is pretty awesome (lots of wood choices) but everything is like 1" x 1" x 18" , 2" x 2", etc, etc. Maybe the store will have more stuff

I only brought those up because my monitors are heavy 27" with tempered glass, so when I was making a similar shelf in the past, I had to make it extra strong. It's really a matter of how much weight they will be made to support and overall size.

I can stand on mine, as long as I stand on the sides, and Im around 248

well my monitor weight is around 7kg (15.5 pounds) so i guess it will survive

Did your idea work btw?

waiting on my buddy to have some free time so I can go use his router table (he works like a mad man, 2 full time jobs)

Ive talked to a friend of mine, who is a master craftsman, and he said "It should definitely work, if you make the cuts correctly"

I am sad to say that I will not be accepting any new orders for the time being (possibly no future orders will be taken).

My table saw took a dump on me and I do not have the funds, nor feel like, buying a new one

No!

I'm glad I got one while I could, though. I really love it. I just need to get some nice pictures of it in action.

Still need to get to the hardware store for clamps and glue. I'm slow to get some of my projects done, but I'll definitely update here when I do.

thought I would let you all know that I am trying to sell my first piece, it's for a QFR (~14" long, may fit others) and is in 9.9/10 condition (nothing is wrong with it at all), price is $30 shipped CONUS ONLY

Easy. It's a cap box. Either of the shadow variety or other. I've been looking at making one for myself, but with a slightly different take on it.

Would there be any interest in me making them again?

we talked about wrist rest and monitor stand a few months ago. I already bought it

sorry about that! i hope someone else will get a good looking Wrist rest from you

jdcarpe · « **Reply #178 on:** Wed, 21 January 2015, 14:10:33 »

I would buy another matching set from you. I still need to get pics of the one I bought.

But I would definitely want a painted finish like you have on yours.

Unfortunately i have no funds atm so i have no say about whether you should start again or not.

Great rests. The one I won in Tigersharkdude's contest still looks like the day it arrived after months of punishment. Never realised how much I needed a rest until I had one, thanks again mate!

Still use mine every day too! Looks just like it did in the picture on your first post.. Only difference is that I finally got my painted cover on the QFR

Depending on shipping, I could be interested in an 80% rest soon.

I will not be using any other woods besides; pine, white wood, oak or cedar (at least not on this old saw). I tried cutting some really hard wood for Photoelectric and it messed up the blade and burnt the motor out on my table saw. That's why I'm gauging interest, to see if it's worth fixing my saw.

I honestly don't know anything about leopard wood aside from the fact that it looks sweet.. The first rest you made me is still awesome tho

Progress of the two plank pieces (one is slightly wider than the other, as requested). I still need to do a final sanding before I stain them

tigersharkdude · « **Reply #197 on:** Wed, 05 August 2015, 14:43:49 »

Update to the current work log

Plank pieces
Finished sanding earlier and applied stain

Hwood's raw cedar piece
Overall sanding is finished, I still have some light sanding to do before sending it out
