I taught a woodworking workshop in Novia Scotia




I had the honor and privileged to lead a woodworking workshop in Nova Scotia Canada at the Make.Do.Camp. 


                                      

                                   
It was my first time to Canada, I loved the fresh chilly air, and beautiful homes line along the streets
   
              
Make.Do.Camp is held in Big Cove at a YMCA camp and it's like a sense from a summer camp movie.

       
               

           I gave my phone and all technology up for the weekend, and truly embraced life to the fullest.

 

I was stoked to lead the workshop along side the extremely talented Gary Staple. Gary has his own fine wood working business in Seaforth Novia Scotia. I learned a great deal of new techniques and tools from Gary while co leading our woodworking workshop. I look forward to doing another co lead workshop with Gary in the future.

 Make.Do.Camp had a fun way for the campers to stay connected while at camp without use of they're  phones. They had this unique Paleo Texting station where you could leave and receive hand written notes to each other. It was really fun go to check and see if I had paleo text's as well as write a few while I was there. 

                       
                


I had such an amazing experience at Make.Do.Camp and feel full of Love from all the amazing people I met over the corse of our weekend together. Thank you also to Wonder'neath for all the amazing creativity you brought to camp.

Epoxy Skull and Walnut Wood Brain

Epoxy Skull with Wood Brain Wood Brain by Lindsay Zuelich In today’s video I’m showing you how I made a life size epoxy skull with a life size walnut wood brain to fit inside. I started by making mini skulls first and figure out what worked and what didn’t. I started by figuring out how to make silicone molds for casting. This took me awhile to figure out which products and methods worked best. I found that using a pressure pot set at 35-40 PSI when making the silicone molds gets all the tiny bubbles out for a perfect casting. I also used the pressure pot when I poured the epoxy and left it in the pressure pot for 24 hours before de-molding. I used Total Boat thickset for the epoxy, which worked great. I used BBDINO platinum silicone 1:1 mold making for making my silicone molds. Once I figured out the epoxy skulls I moved onto making wood brains to fit inside on my OneFinity CNC. I then used a Dremel to carve out the underside of the brain so that they fit in the epoxy skulls just rig

Ultimate Garage Makeover With Xyla Foxlin

BEFORE Check out my YouTube video of the transformation of Xyla‘s garage while you’re at it check out her video as well. Ultimate Garage Makeover Wood Brain by Lindsay Zuelich In today’s video I’m sharing with you how I helped transformed my friend @xylafoxlin newly rented garage into a bright and functional workshop. Because Xyla is renting but has a one year lease, we wanted to try and do as many renter friendly things as possible, and we ran all the other ideas by her landlord in advance for approval. We started by giving the garage a really good cleaning then painted the rafters of the garage with white paint. We opted to not insulate the walls … I KNOW!… I’m sure I’ll hear about it in the comments. But we didn’t insulate. After we put the walls up (without the insulation) we painted the walls white and hung wallcontrol on the areas that we wanted to hang tools. Once the walls were addressed we tackled the floors. The rear section of the shop has some weird floor damage to the co
