Construction of a bird table inspired by Whitby Abbey A good friend Rob asked me to make a bird table for him in the style of Whitby abbey. So I thought I would record the build process. Rob Carolan is a fantastic photographer. He takes wonderful photos of birds, the moon, landscapes and more. He also is a Hand pan play finde below a link to some of his Photography on ViewBug and also his youtu...

Making a telescope
Просмотров 367 тыс.5 лет назад
Hello to all who stumble upon this video and to those who are returning to my channel. Firstly may I say this video is not a how-to video. I've been making telescopes and musical instruments for many years. Friends who asked me to make them a custom instrument have asked me to document their builds with photos so I thought I would document the process. So this telescope build came about by a go...

WOULD YOU BE MUTY KIND TO PROVIDE REL CAD FILE? PLEASE
Sorry but I hate this format. Ditch the music and tell us what you're doing. There's a reason movies went to "talkies" 100 years ago
Thanks for the comment and the constructive criticism. I'm sorry that you didn't like my video. Sadly there's not much I can do about it now. I'm also sorry that I won't be taking your advice as I enjoy making videos like this and plenty of people seem to like it. This is one of my most popular videos which says to me this format works. 366000 views speak's for itself. Have a nice day topspeed250k5
Wish you can donate me one

Nice video! What did you use for finishing/sealer
Bravo génial félicitation (michel)
Nice but bulky design.
Thanks for the comment. These scopes work wonderfully. You may think they are bulky, but it stays collimated and perform perfectly. I have made many scopes in the last 20 years. Sometimes trying to make them as lite weight as possible but this makes the scope weak and they dont stay collimated. So I have settled on a design that is rock solid. They pack down small and fill in the back of a small car. Perhaps a commercial scope is more suited to your needs.
@@PeterSmithwoodsmith Nope, commercial scopes are subpar, I will have to build my own. I will use more carbon and metal on bulky parts. It will be stiff but light.
@@pangrac1 Well good luck I hope your build goes as well as you expect it too.
@@PeterSmithwoodsmith It will be work thru the mistakes and errors. As usual. 😉😂 Optical stability will be my satisfactions.
With the exception of this strange computer noises. Unfortunately I despised. Beautiful walking stick.
Thanks for the comment. There is a volume and mute controls on all RUclips videos.
The Celtic harp is a beautiful sounding instrument.
An artistic craftsman.
Que madera utilizo para este proyecto
Wow, amazing work.
Sana bir şey söyleyeyim mi olağanüstü güzellik
Incredibly beautiful
Will the birds fly there for prayer?
Where do you get those tuners for the stick dulcimers?
You, sir, are a heck of a craftsman.
Those walking sticks are works of art.
man sollte ihm mal sagen, dass es mit der Musik gequirlte Kacke ist.
A beautiful scope, sir. Really, I just love it.
Very cool, but I have no workshop and no tools, so trying this on my own is out of the question.
Mantul, ingin membuatnya👍👍👍👍
Alot of expensive tools
Hello and thank you for your comment. Actually, these tools are not expensive at all. The most expensive machine I have is the panel saw but it is the cheapest panel saw you can buy on the market and with the amount of features it has it is very cheap. The Lathe, grinder, drill press, fret saw and many of the power tools are over 30 years old and are all very cheap brands like Drapper and Titan. If you show this video to any Joiner or carpenter or cabinet maker they will confirm this. I run my workshop on a very small budget. Some of the machines I built myself, like the Bandsaw and table saw. All the machines and tools in total, cost less than a good quality table saw or the like.
The speed of this video is so irritating
I realize this is an older video and there may be a chance you will not see this comment. However I've been looking to gain insight in the crafting a unique walking stick for my personal use. Thank you for sharing your process in doing so.
Beautiful looking result. Personally I would not trust the structural integrity for any off trail hiking though. But thats just me ... and sorry if I'm wrong. Without solid testing its just a gut feel.
Muy bueno , excelente.
Oh my, thats genius work! Congratulations, cheers from Brasil!
And the reason you sped up the whole video ? Makes it hard to watch. No words, no music...nothing to keep the viewers attention.
Hello and thank you for your comment. I am sorry you didn't like the video. This was my first build video. I had no idea what I was doing. Despite this, it is my most popular video and still does very well to this day. I had no idea people would watch it. my channel is very small and I really dont have much time to put into it. the video was made just for a bit of fun, nothing serious. It has to be said that working on projects like this is a lot of work and capturing it and editing it is a huge amount of work. Perhaps you could make a build video and show me how it's done.
I like these! I make my own version patterned after the Persian setar (with a flat back, I’m not up to making the traditional staved bowls… and I use metal frets, not tied) and call it the Dulsetar 😆 8:37 … this reminds me, I need to change the blade on my bandsaw!
Damn! Spent way too much time with each segment of the building process. I believe at least 90% of the folks watching these types videos on woodworking don't need to see the entirety of each process over and over and over. I estimate most people "get it" in as little as 30 seconds to a minute of each part of constructing. People get tired of watching something being constructed after 10 to 15 minutes or so. At least I do. I'm not meaning to be curt just helpful and I hope it's taken that way. If I'm wrong then I apologize and will remove my comment.

@@PeterSmithwoodsmith ....Peter you are absolutely right, making a video is not easy, I tried and failed miserably about three times when I realized I didn't have the tools upstairs to get it right. I had no idea you had just gotten started when making this video and I never think of looking at the date of when they were made. I'm old now and am getting more cranky by the year, I've been around going on 75 and have worked very hard since I was a seven year old boy. Sorry, I had wrote a book but erased it cause I'm bad about running on. Please except my apology if I upset you. I was going to erase my comment but decided since you were so gracious I'm leaving it up so people can see what a fine person you are in the face of someone that should keep their mouth shut, my dad raised me that way and I carried the marks for along time growing up to prove it. I should have known better, again, sorry.
Awesome capture!!!! I unfortunately missed it back when it happened because of being too cloudy. Glad you captured it!
Well done-😆😆
you should try to replace your black paint with vanderblack and see if that improves it. or makes it worse
Hello and thank you for the comment. I have experimented with various matt black paints, black velvets, and black flockings I really couldn't notice the difference. it is certainly important that the inside of the telescope is matt black of some kind. My opinion is that wherever possible black flocking is adequate. Black heat shrink is fine for poles and matt black paint for everywhere else. Nothing should be left metallic or bright. the only time I find I get light reflection issues is if I'm observing the sun with a white light filter on the front of the telescope and there is light getting in the optical tube from a gap somewhere that bounces off the white light filter on to the mirror and into the eyepiece. Which is easily solved.
Nice work 👍
عصايه ممتازه فوق الممتاز شغلك شغل احترافى ما شاء الله كفاءه عالية جدا جدا ماشاء الله لاقوة الابالله ولكن ماهى انواع الخشب اللتى استخدمتها اظن انها متينه وقويه للغايه(( وعجبى))
nic job
Wow! Im awe of your skills! The harp sounds beautiful.
Thank you Marc
nicely done!!!!!!!!!!
Really nice job. What about a rubber tip for indoors and sidewalks, to prevent slipping?
Thanks for the comment. If you read the video description you will read that the brass end is there to accept a rubber ferrule. Sorry, I didn't show it in the video.
Awesome build !!!!!
Craftsman and musician. Excellent on both accounts. Thanks for sharing your work.
Those walking cane looks awesome. You have the right tools and the skills. I had made my own cane. Even though I'm 75 yrs old I still have some skills, what I do not have is the tools you have. I have a set of files, a jigsaw, sand paper, a small vice and a drilling gun. My waking cane is not beautiful as yours but I still get some complements. Hope didn't get you bore with my little story. Thank you for the video and keep up the good work..
That handle will snap off like a twig. All that work and the weakest connection.
Arrrr hahaha I don't think so. The walking sticks are 4 years old now and performing perfectly. Rock solid. I have lent on the handle with my full weight many times.
Do you sell the canes? If so do you have a brochure?
Hello Terrell. thank you for your comment. I only made 3 of these. I sadly have no time to make any more walking sticks.
Así se va a we uebrsr de envío al lee tanto en mpo porque se mire bonito nada más no duradero y se i lo usas tú ni para ti hsces cosas buenas Que duren
I can only wish for something that beautiful
verry interesting
Great video, but why the annoying sound effects? I would rather hear the shop sounds. YMMV.
