I've been looking through your archive trying to find the post where you did a tutorial for the cat scratching post, but can't find it! I'm going to make one for my own growing kitty, since he just outgrew his first one, and figured it would be cheaper to make than buy. Any chance you have the post?

No, but I can tell you about it! It's basically a square of heavy board--I used a 2-foot section of one-inch-thick MDF, cut in Home Depot to size. The post itself is just a section of 4x4 board, also cut in the store down to four feet tall. As a note--before it was cut, the MDF was 2x4' and the board was 8', so I actually wound up with precisely twice what I needed to make this project.

I picked up a post capper of my choosing, and 50 feet of sisal rope. You'll also want some 3" screws, a bunch of wood glue, and some kind of flathead nail or a big stapler. I also used fabric to cover the base of the post, attaching with a staple gun, and then attached a sheet of foamcore to the bottom so that it wouldn't scratch the floors.

Cover the base however you see fit--you could use carpet, if you wanted--and then, on the bottom and top, mark the center. Align your 4x4 post and use your long screws (drilled from the bottom of the base) to attach it. If you're thinking ahead, unravel one end of the sisal rope so that it lays flat, cover it in glue, and sandwich it between the base and the post when you do this.

From here, you can choose to paint or stain the post the same color as your rope, if you want to be fancy. Otherwise, just smother the post in wood glue and start wrapping with the rope. Every few rotations, use your nails or staples to anchor the rope to the post, continuing to the top. I used a 1/2 inch drill bit to make a hole at the top that I tucked and glued the end of the rope into, then attached the post capper over that so it would be neat.

I'm involved in a project that requires casting some residential circular-arch doors out of concrete, one side at a time. I was considering designing the embellishments with digital tools and having them cut with a CNC machine for the mold, but it seems like a lot of trouble and I already know how to design things in the physical world. My question: what did you carve your beautiful embellished doors from, was it expensive, and do you think it'd work to cast a rubber mold from?

That sounds like a really cool project!

The carved panels on the doors I made were made in mdf-board. It's pretty cheap, about the same as plywood, and you can carve it like wood with a multitool - with the right bit, it's pretty fast work! (I talk about the different bits I use in this post.)

As long as the relief doesn't have any wierdly angled deep nooks and crannies, you should absolutely be able to make a rubber cast from it! Especially if you put down a base coat of somewhat glossy paint first, to make all the surfaces smooth and non-porous!

(Mandatory word of caution - carving mdf means a lot of sawdust, and it's a health-hazard to breathe it in. So do it outside, if you can, and wear a mask and goggles!)

The board on the doors is actually quite thin, about 10-12mm - the layered paint helps accentuate the 3D depth of the carvings. If you want a physically deeper relief, it'll be more work to carve it and the mdf sheets are more expensive the thicker they are.

That said, even a relatively shallow pattern can be very striking!

This divider was carved from 10mm mdf, so the carvings are just a few mm deep, but even without paint, it makes for a pretty effect! 🙂

If you do go ahead with it, feel free to share pictures! I'd love to see what you end up making! 😀

Hobby adjacent post:

I really want to get into the gaming side of Warhammer 40k, so I decided I needed a way to store and transport my miniatures.

I remember having a lot of fun with this when I was a kid. I got a big thick sheet of furniture foam and cut holes in it with a holesaw bit. Then, I stuck the foam to thin sheets of mdf and packed layers into a massive toolbox. I think this alternative solution is a lot more elegant but less fun...

If anyone is curious, I used a 4L A4 Really Useful Box and a sheet of 0.75mm self-adhesive rubber steel ferrous sheets from The Magnet Shop. It was about £10 for one sheet and one box. The sheets stick really well. This box will probably hold 60-80 infantry models.

The sheets I got were receptive to magnets (not magnetic). I got 2mm x 5mm round N45 magnets for the bases, but I'll definitely need stronger/bigger magnets for anything bigger than a termagant.

I've been really getting jnto this whole miniature wargaming thing lately and have been watching a lot of videos about how to build your own terrain, table etc, and a lot of it is based on polystyrene foam. As luck would have it, I found a pile of insulation foam being chucked out from a house nearby (the owners wanted me to take as much as possible) cut perfectly into 2' x 4' blocks. If I got a couple of MDF boards I could easily turn it into a terrained wargaming table with features like hills and rivers cut into it. I grabbed enough to cover a 6' x 4' surface and was on my merry way. Anyway, that is why I am sleeping in a room filled with insulation foam I found on the street. I will not regret this 100% very well thought out impulse grab

Once upon a time I had a toy carousel as a child,but it broke,and I kept the pieces...except the music box. I may not be 100% sure,but I do believe the song was, probably,most likely,Love story. So that's what I used.

So,after feverish crafting and endless winging,I present :

Scarlet Carousel

Yes let me name it that please ;-;

More pics under the cut!

I've been wanting to make this for well over 3 yrs,it feels like a dream come true! Hands on,it took exactly a week, 6-8hrs per day on most days. I made it almost entirely from scratch, except the music box of course (it was a regular one,I made the rotating mechanism) and the horses which are peagasus figured I sculpted over and repainted. I didn't go in with a solid plan,no sketch either,but I did have some plans,which...many of which I ended up changing mid project. There were many places I had to redo, but in the end I'm really proud of it, please have a look!!

I made sure to add stairs for imaginary kids to climb up,a railing of chains so they don't fall off,and a starry sky so when the nonexistent riders look up,they see something nice!

The inner box is made of scrap mdf from cakes, base made of foam board, and upper tent (?) sculpted with lightweight clay (Artista) ,the filigree from resin casts I've made over years,and most other things either craft store trinkets or recycled trash.

I've recorded most of the process,and I'll be making a video! Let's hope it happens soon!

4 Easy DIY Wall Mirror Ideas to Try At Home

1) MDF base Round Mirror

Great for use as festive or seasonal decor or in the comfort of your own home's living or sleeping quarters

The round mirror is supported by a sturdy base made of pine MDF, making this an excellent decorative accessory. These mirrors come in one of sixteen different designs, each of which is better suited to a particular task. Dotting tool dots in a mandala pattern painted on a white MDF Mirror base is a simple and effective way to design this foundation. Using a decoupage flower sheet, glitter foam sheets, or a transfer me sheet, you can quickly give the MDF mirror base a more prominent appearance, giving it a more personal touch. It's hard to foresee the room's reaction to the installation of these mirrors.

2) Jharokha Wall mirror

Suitable for use in the home, on a balcony, or in a professional or dining establishment, this Jharokha mirror plays an important decorative role in many traditional Rajasthani arts and crafts. As a result, the household receives a dose of fresh cultural accents. Add a unique touch to any space with these MDF window bases. MDF works wonderfully for any kind of artistic endeavour.

If you want a jharokha mirror base but don't want the door jharokha, consider painting it in teal and other bright colours instead. Hand-painted jharokhas make wonderful presents for any event, but they are especially appreciated during weddings, anniversaries, Thanksgiving, and housewarmings.

3) MDF Mirror base cutouts

Ideal for use in any space, especially bedrooms, living rooms, and balconies, this MDF mirror base cutout is a go-to choice for artistic and functional decor.

When painted with acrylic or oil colour, the laser-processed cutout design of the MDF Designer mirror base cutouts looks opulent. You can get this base in a wide range of sizes, hues, and forms to accommodate your creative needs. But you may also make resin artwork on medium or large frames and display it on the walls near the sofa.

The MDF mirror base is primed with white gesso before being painted with contrasting hues. Choose a shade that goes well with the paint job, and use 3D outliners to draw intricate patterns.

4) Mirror stand with engraved flower design on MDF and with markings

This laser processed and well-engraved pre-marked MDF mirror base with a flower design is perfect for parties, weddings, living rooms, balconies, and commercial spaces. As a result, you'll have a primed canvas ready to be painted on with any medium you like, whether that's acrylics or oils. The MDF is pre-printed with a circular design that works well with a variety of craft materials, including decoupage sheets, resin, and lippan art. However, you can also have your children help with the design. Before applying the pastel colours, prime the base. Use supplies from a hobby shop to make them look more real, like little mirrors, cotton thread, glitter, and 3D pencils.

If you want to decorate your home in a way that will leave your guests in awe, try some of the creative DIY mirror frame ideas that go along with it.
