I sent you a response in the general channel, but I missed the part about the chimney. The sealant should still work though and then like rev said you should take a look at the metal flashing. @Rick
They didn’t post in order 😓
“How I took apart a coat hanger”
Gotta work with your hands sometimes. Great job
Here's some custom casement windows I made. They still need to be cleaned.
We're also restoring a 1972 Airstream camper.
Here's a little shelf for the bathroom.
Ooh that looks nice. What kind of finish do you like to use? I’ve been using a matte polyurethane. I plan to make two matching nightstands sometime soon as well as a chest that sits at the end of the bed. I want to give them a glossy finish, so I won’t be using the poly (don’t like the way glossy poly looks). Any suggestions?
I used Helmsman water based poly on that, it's not real glossy but you can see it.
Usually I use high gloss poly because it protects better. And people like that high gloss look.
I hate working on homemade scaffolding.
Especially in a proper turret.
It's only a little over 20ft, but falling would hurt hahaha
A pretty large chest I made to sit at the bottom of my bed. Should look really nice when I stain /finish it
The hinges for the lid and the handles haven’t arrived yet either, but I found some really nice hinges hat allow the lid to over hang on the back
Looks nice bro. If you're ever looking for hardware here's where I buy a lot of stuff from.

Nice they have some cool bail pulls on there. Wish I would have known before I bought the ones I did so I could have more choices. Either way the ones I got are fine though I guess.
Haha you could always swap it out later. Nice work though bro.
Thank you.
That’s true. I’ll see how it looks before I install it and return it if I don’t like it
@Envian Nice work. Post photos after you stain it please, they always look so good after being stained.
Here’s my latest project. Just a simple stand for my desk
Building some custom windows and frames for a place in Jeffersonville, Indiana.
Well those didn't go in order hahah
Glazed
The frame I had to chisel out the mortise for the pulleys. These are single hung windows.
In that 2nd pic I used a chisel. Once it's like that you can use just a chisel to get the material out.
That’s cool. I haven’t run into a situation that requires any of my chisels yet.
The key to getting good cuts with hand chisels is to cut across the grain. I also trace the pulley with a razor and it keeps the edges from blowing out.
