i used standing/mounted power tools for the first time - heehee! artemis had already used a bandsaw before, but it was my first time. we both learned how to use a drill press and do some artistic, decorative woodburning on our wooden notebooks.
cut covers to size on bandsaw |
use an awl to create guides for the holes you measured (twice) and marked |
tools of the trade |
the drill fits nicely into the guides from the awl |
second try - the first one had an irreparable split in the wood |
even with the handle, the wood burning tool get HOT |
oil for a nice finish |
his - for dungeons & dragons |
mine - i like how my flower turned out |
