David Marks' Shop Tour - 77

http://thewoodwhisperer.com
Last summer, on our Gadget Station delivery trip, we decided to stop and visit the one and only David Marks. If you're not familiar with David, he is an incredible woodworker, and used to host a show on HGTV and the DIY Network called Woodworks. But the show has been over for nearly 5 years and David has moved on to bigger and better things. While we were there, he was kind enough to give us a nice shop tour. This is pure gold for any big Woodworks fans out there!

I thought his name is spagnuolo.  Whats the deal?

[TheWoodWhisperer]

@howser12 I think you might be confusing me with David, lol.

[howser12]

@TheWoodWhisperer You say at :08 sec " Hi I'm David Marks!" But you are not David Marks. The other guy with the long hair is David Marks.

[TheWoodWhisperer]

@howser12 Oh.... I was actually doing a parody of Davids old TV show. Sorry for the confusion.

[dshantalla]

when he says " laminated out of walnut " , what exactly does he mean by that?

ive gotten gym and library cards laminated, is it the same process?

i'll be making some wardrobe doors soon and i'd like to re-create the glossy vinyl look that all pre-fab'd doors have these days. would laminating the doors after the paint has dried give me this effect ?

im finding more and more, that woodworking is actually the easy part and

getting the finish right is the hard part.

a finish makes or breaks.

[TheWoodWhisperer]

usually in the woodworking world, lamination refers to gluing multiple pieces of wood together. Nothing like laminating cards.

So I honestly don't know how you would achieve that effect.

That bandsaw is the biggest bandsaw I have ever seen in my life. I kid you not, I though that was for Giants or something.

@TheWoodWhisperer i guess jokes are hard to understand these days!!! We live in an extremely serious country...keep that in mind for the next one spagnuolo!!! LOL

[ralphcanoes]

You are a true master.

I remember him from TV. I called him "jig" boy. Every project he would pull out a jig but never had a show on how to make the jig.  So I stopped watching him. He puts out some beautiful work.
