I found this nice piece of wood in the scrap pile. I think it’s red oak but can’t be positive. profiled it and performed a super sketchy cut on the table saw to give it a nice even bevel.
Nice work! A tablesaw, you say? I’ve wondered how to add angle to a board. I’ve been thinking about just filling away, or using a planer.
After, you’ve sanded and olied it?
Yup, I played around with using a hand plane but got impatient and wasn’t confident I could get an even smooth angle across the whole thing. So I stood the board up against the fence and kicked the blade over at a 15ish degree angle.
After that as you said sanded and oiled. I used Tung oil for the finish.
That’s funny, I’ve made a few of these and always thought to myself, “I can knock this out with a hand plane way faster than I could set up my table saw.” A few swipes with a no5 and a couple swipes with a smoother and I’m done. I guess it all depends on how familiar you are with which tools (and of course, whether you’re making a couple vs a whole bunch)
