#Woodworking Projects That

[hylianchampion17]

i made these sword wall mounts from Link’s house in BotW! i made three in total to match the three in Link’s Hateno house. the TotK ones are slightly different, featuring a rod to stand the weapon upright, rather that against the wall.*

i’m gonna be overly descriptive here for my own reference, as well as anyone else who would like to make something similar!

here’s the specs:

mount:

h - 44 in // w(top) - 16 in // w(bottom) - 14 in

plaque:

h - 2.5 in // w - 8.5 in

- made from plywood and cut wooden sticks

- bindings used screws, wood glue, and a nail gun

- base colour using spray paint

- border colour using primer paint

- fastened with velcro temporarily

- backside is hung on wall with a wire line

i plan to add Hylian text to the plaques. probably something general rather than a specific weapon name (so i can swap swords between mounts).

also planning to replace the velcro strip with a leather strap and buckle. something adjustable for different sizes. i’ll either use rivets or simply cut two slots in the sides for the leather strap to go through.

all my swords i plan on hanging here are high-density foam/PVC pipe. so far, i have the royal claymore, great flameblade, and master sword. although the first two are larger in game, they are roughly the same size as the master sword seen in the photos. this allows me to make a one-size-fits-most build!

inspired by u/ on reddit and twitter for the inspiration!

*here’s the different versions between games:

Another distaff attempt. This one was just a stick I found on the ground, that was naturally all wavy. I wanted to try a thin distaff to see if it would help with hand pain, and I thought the waviness might help keep the fiber attached. I debarked it and sanded it--will decorate it later once I know if it'll be a distaff or not.

I wound a partial batt on using a spare in progress icord (stuck the dpns into the fiber to keep it secure, actually works pretty well !). Only had 10 minutes or so to try it out this morning but I like it so far. Still a little heavy, but the waves are great for keeping the fiber in place, it hasn't slid at all so far. More updates to come, hopefully.

Okay, it's not a good *wallet* habit, but i highly recommend cultivating a stress response of acquiring a new niche hobby. Work is hard? New hobby! Never enough hours in the day to do important things? NEW HOBBY. It's a flawless solution, don't even worry. I have no idea how long I'm going to be preoccupied with this, because I'm accelerating but have no gauge for max speed, but straw marquetry time

Hermithouse update!

Aka the miniature wooden house I'm making for school / an art gallery, that I'm trying to add as many hermitcraft references to as possible!

Fun fact, the second floor is removable :3

Look at the lil bridge and spikey rocks i made for the outside area :D and all it took to make them was a small blood sacrifce! (<-this isn't a joke btw, i ended up getting hurt while using an electric saw... DW IT'S FINE ITS JUST A SMALL CUT LMFAO!!!)

The house is built on a river next to a forrest, but since i left that part in school over the weekend, i can't show yall my progress on it ;^;

More info + pictures of the whole house bellow!

(if u wanna suggest/already suggested sth, the update on the suggestions is below too!)

The deadline is Wednesday, which sadly means i don't have time to finish/add everything until then... BUT! Once the gallery is over, i will try to add the rest, including some more obvious references!

My current plans are:

Painting of a BIG moon

Original 12 bamboo

Mending book reference

Scarland artbook

Grumbot Laptop

Snail

Cherryblossom tree

The river near Magic Mountain (+gems deadly rocks)

Effo statue

Permitoffice posters

Hotguy poster

Gems boat

already added/gona try n add these before Wednesday, I'll add these after the gallery

Most of these are things you guys suggested, big ty for that! If u have any more ideas, feel free to tell me, although i will only be able to add those after the gallery!

Do NOT know why my father made this; however, I can use it. I removed the hinges, rough-sanded most of the surfaces, and got a nice, fragrant* coat of tung oil on it. The smaller piece will become a shallow shadow box lined with a piece of an EXTREMELY old hexagon quilt I was given by an older neighbor. The larger piece

m-i-g-h-t help alleviate the clutter that build up on the night table. Maybe. So I can take "box" off the project list and add "wood painting", because my husband got this piece sanded smooth:

and he would like me to paint this little creek on there.

So I need time to sew, craft, cook, clean, take care of Hero and the pasture, the garden, tutor, paint, and uh . . hmmmm. No, nope, I can definitely do everything. This will work.

.* well I think it smells kind of nice; it's oil from nuts of the tung tree.

My latest Cardinal carving. Inspiration to art to part.

Long time Tumblr enjoyer, first time poster.

Here is a chicken coop I have been building. In true goblin fashion it is 90% made from pallet wood and reclaimed materials aka trinkets from my travels. See list below for examples

Palletwood- taken from local shipping company

Nails- removed from mallet Pallet wood, bent back to shape

Windows: made from a scrap of acrylic found in the dumpster at work

Vertical posts: dug out of the creek behind my house

Cain link fence for the run: also dug out of the creek

Concrete pavers: also also dug out if the creek

These pictures are from various points in the process and trust me, I have taken loads more if anyone is interested… I’m still working on a more permanent run but hopefully that will be done soon. I’m glad to finally have the chickens in it!

[sentientglue]

been collecting vintage tiles for the surface of the studio work bench I’m building. a bunch of these were sourced from demolition sites in the path of Sydney’s WestConnex motorway, scraps of vintage fireplaces rescued from the rubble by another local artist.

aiming to use recycled/second hand materials where possible…sourcing recycled timber next week <3

I can't believe my dad is retired. I feel too young for this. I feel he's too young for this. I feel like I'm still 15 sometimes. I feel surprised every time I go home and he looks older. I feel surprised when I finally FaceTime home instead of call and see he's grown a beard for the first time in my life. I feel like time should really just... freeze

Did some wood turning last weekend and finally got around to applying some shellac.

This started off as a 6x6 beam of ash, that I turned into this vase. Originally had a bit more of a lip at the top but I delved too deep and it cracked so I shortened it.

Little brainstorm board for an old dream project.

So my original wood dnd set was 1/16th or 1/8th (I forget) ply woodburnt with patterns and with hand carved characters. Still have my original wizard, wise old man, and rogue, lost my kobold, but walls would just be implied by the shape of sheets

This new set is aiming to be *mostly* formless. Going to have a few big pieces for roofs or quick floors, a small bit of carved furniture, but mostly want 1x1x1 wood blocks in various combos/tetriminos to block things out. After enough blocks are gotten I'll be adding woodburning for bricks/wood/etc, and then some various stains for various materials, but shy from paint or unrealistic stains. I want shades of brown. All monsters will be various 'meeple' shapes, flat, with woodburnt patterns, mostly from dollarstore kids toys that are plentiful here, and humanoids will be woodburnt 'peg doll' style beings, roughly in 35mm scale/sub 2 blocks tall

Also going to have some more general shapes for quick things. have some fences/walls made already using off brand jenga, various preglued shapes, and I'll have some centre piece furniture with various uses. Eventually want to woodburn some of those fences with 'graffiti', mostly to fit into games like 40k

Tried making a wooden dnd set way back in grade 10, but the teacher got pissy about the wheelchair I had after surgery that year and would only let me do book work in shop class, so it never got finished (which I can understand no big power tools. Maybe even no scroll saw. But no hand tools, no chisel or hand saw, no wood burner, no stool or wheelchair only painful crutches post-surgery hunched on a desk, ridiculous, but a rant for another day)

Wood, you can throw it at a wall, dump it in a bucket, it won't break, at worst it cracks and you reglue with sawdust and can barely tell. And it's *aesthetic*. Good dnd stuff. Plus it fits into larp if you want to rp at the rp place XD

Cleaned the garage and completed some projects.

The garage is now dirty again.
