Hi, Alan Stratton, from As Wood Turns (http://www.AsWoodTurns.com) For this project, I thought, Let's make
a cable saver.
You know, the thing that manages all the cables that go to and from the computer.
And there is a lot of cables there.
So, I though well, How do I make that sort of thing in wood?
Well, it has to have a hole in it, I think.
It has be have a big enough hole to let the cord through.
And then, Does it stand up?
Does it lay down.
Is it off center?
Is it what?
I considered a lot of things then a lot of ways to mount it.
I finally came up with a simple design.
This is now just a simple round, doughnut almost.
I'll let it lay down and hold the cords in place.
So, this seems like a simple project.
I spent a lot of brain waves trying to think about it.
How to enhance it?
Two questions: what would you do to make a cable saver?
Is this too simple of a project for a woodturning video?
Let me know.
Meanwhile, let's make this cable saver.
This is my second block of ash, the first is in the firewood pile.
I'm mounting it to the face of my chuck jaws with pressure from the live center.
I'm cutting the wood down to a size that will fit in my chuck.
My plan is evolving.
Originally, I thought to cut a recess in the middle of the outer perimeter and use it to
hold the wood.
As I'm cutting this wood back, I have a much better idea.
Cut two shallow tenons on each face of the wood.
As a plus, these tenons should be easily removed by rounding over the edge when I'm finished
with them.
Now to expand the chuck jaws as much as possible.
This wide, the jaw corners will likely dig end and leave a mark.
I'll be able to cut these away.
Next, I'm drilling out the center with a 1.75 inch Forstner bit.
I only want to drill about 2/3 through the wood.
Now, flip the wood around to the other side and complete the hole so it does not break
out.
Since I rarely can hit the middle of the wood when it's spinning, I'm marking a line
in the center.
I only want to round to this point.
Well, at least that was the plan.
Then sand the round over up through all the grits.
Next, flip the wood again and round over the middle on this side.
That line in the middle – it's long gone.
And sand this area also.
Now for the outside corner.
I'm mounting the wood on the long nose jaws in an expansion hold.
I was a little nervous whether it would run true without a tenon but it is close enough.
Again, I round it over with a spindle gouge.
And sand it thoroughly.
And for the final outside corner.
Will it run true enough to finish.
Close enough.
And sand it thoroughly.
For a finish, I'm wiping it down with walnut oil.
It brightens up nicely.
I like my simple wood cable saver.
It is harder than it looks.
Simple, yet functional and it's wood.
I spent way too much time thinking about mounting options and even multi-axis options.
Simple is good.
This was fun.
Please give this video a thumbs up, subscribe on my website, tell your friends and send
me your comments and questions.
Every week I make a new woodturning video.
Please wear your full face shield even on simple projects – goggles are not enough
protection.
Until next week's video this is Alan Stratton from As Wood Turns dot com.
