Interestingly, doing woodworking when camping/vacationing is something that I've been wanting to dedicate a toolbox/set of tools to.
Agree on the 3D printed jigs/fixtures thing --- it's surprisingly handy, and lends itself to a wonderful precision.
That said, what I really want for this sort of thing is a shooting plane/board (though I suppose I could just use my Jointmaker Pro, for which I really want to make an angle setting fixture).
- steve_adams_86 2y agoThe joint maker pro looks like so much fun! I love Bridge City. Do you get much use out of it? It’s not very hard to make kumiko jigs from scrap wood, too. I was a bit lazy at the time, and given a trip to the wood store and a bit of planning could have done it myself. A shooting board is also a great idea
- WillAdams 2y agoThus far, my notable usage has been cutting boxes apart: https://community.carbide3d.com/t/cutting-boxes-and-a-new-toy/66302 https://community.carbide3d.com/t/cutting-boxes-and-a-new-to... though I use it for whenever a need a saw cut with precision.
- steve_adams_86 2y agoBeautiful work on that box! The joinery is super tight and clean. I suspect I’d love to have one of these around but I’m not sure I (or my family) could stomach that price tag, haha. I’m also expected to finish projects so quickly, it seems like power tools are my only sane option these days. Maybe some day, though. I love the idea of working with quieter, slower, calmer tools like I used to.
