Many years ago I had more time than money. It seems crazy when I think back on it but I needed a dust bin for my Oneida Dust Deputy with my Makita shop vac and I had some leftover plywood. I couldn't think of anything better than to make a barrel myself from all 1 cm slats with the sides sawn at an angle and glued together.

Today, this dust bin is far too small for today's production in the shop. I bought a 60 liter metal bin almost a year ago so it was about time to finally make myself a new shop vac cart that I can drive around the shop with wheels the size that go over cables and 5 times the capacity. All this, combined with a mount for my Festool ETS EC 150 sander and a big flat surface on top this cart will save me some time in efficiency.

I'm doing a lot of small projects at the moment. Here's 2 of them already! Didn't wanted to cram too many projects in one video so this is a short one. I'm making a DIY pull up bar I'm never going to use and I bought a big industrial dust extractor for the CNC for cheap. Had to make some configurations to it to make it work but I'm glad with the result! I hope you like the video. Let me know in the comments if shorter videos are something you like or prefer longer ones!

A lot has changed since my last video. I moved to a new workshop, bought new tools and resumed my work with my other business www.ygoncabs.com. In this video I explain my plans for the future of the ygon MADE channel while I make some storage drawers and a drawer for the computer on my new Open CNC I-300 CNC machine. I'm using mostly plywood in this project and using this project for testing the CNC. Combined with hand woodwork. If you like this video or the fact I'm back.. like this video and share with your loved ones.

I made a round dining table with a big chamfer underneath for a modern look. This table is made of Belgian White Oak which is similar to French Oak and American White Oak and will be placed in my dining room at my house. I used Rubio Monocoat's Smoke 5% oil as finishing. This is a pretty simple build and there's not a lot of tools required. In case you don't own a thickness planer you might be able to ask a local woodshop to use theirs. Besides a planer, all you need for this project is a router and a drill.

A major upgrade in my workshop. With an overall dimension of 1800 x 800 mm this workbench is more than twice the size of my previous 50 year old bench. Even though it takes up more space in the shop It feels like I gained more than twice the space with this bench. Fully mobile and dismountable. Including Systainer drawers, storage drawers, an MFT tabletop and a router table with integrated dust collection.

4 days a week from 5 to 8. That's my ygon MADE time. 
This clock was a quick project to take with me to the Rubio Monocoat Wood Makers Day. I upcycled a 30 y/o plastic clock with white oak and birch ply. These are basic plans with only dimensions since it's just a circle.
