I found this project not only impressive, but moreso the craftsman. His obvious woodworking & CNC skills are outstanding as is his pre-planning in terms of fixturing, process sequence & his craftsmanship talents. I was "starstruck" with this project, the skills involved, and the video skills involved to present it.
Enjoy the video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7AgD5NUzyOE&app=desktop

That was awesome! The man has a sense of humor for sure, and I liked watching how he made it.
I would like to have a CNC, but I am digitally challenged.

Fun to watch and creatively filmed for sure, but it looked pretty labor intensive for something that's basically a cool novelty. A labor of love for a grandchild perhaps?!

I knew it was one of Frank's videos just by reading your description. You may want to post this video in the sticky thread at the top of the page for favorite Wing videos. I actually posted 2 of his in the thread. Frank has some of the best production value of any of the youtube WWing content creators and has a really nice shop filled with really nice old iron he has refurbished.

Fun video. He has a really nice shop.

Yes, Frank is one of my favorites, hard to decide what is more impressive, his shop with some incredible old iron, his woodworking skill and imagination or his videography skill and his dry self depricating sense of humour is the finishing touch.

That is just a freaking awesome project! Thanks for posting the link!

Frank is the man. He seems so dry... at first. But his videos are immensely entertaining. Watching his brain work in the woodcraft and the video planning is inspiring and humbling.

Well, now I have a better idea of how much imagination, I DON'T have. LOLOLOL. That was a great video. I'm gonna have to free up some time and watch some more of his videos. Thanks for posting.
