Commissions

I accept commissions on projects if I feel they are of interest to me and my subscribers as I prefer where possible to video all my work. If the project lends itself to becoming a good video I would typically ask that I be allowed to use it on my YouTube channel.

I will only ever work for payment for all materials in advance and my rates can be discussed via email.

You will find my rates very reasonable!

Please email contact@thewoodgineer.com if you would like to discuss!

Alan the Dalek (middle) has been dropped off safel Alan the Dalek (middle) has been dropped off safely with me thanks to @xrobotsuk and peeps at @somakeitsoton 
Got some fun ahead of me to get him going and patched up but he’s going to be better than ever!  Hoping he can represent the makerspace at some future events.

I didn’t go to @makerscentral this year and felt I didn’t go to @makerscentral this year and felt pretty gutted about it. 
However thanks to some fellow makers and friends I felt I was there in spirit at least with constant updates and nice photos of me using the filter I made 🥰
Big thanks to everybody who made me feel included and of course to the MC team and exhibitors who looked like they put on a brilliant show!
No filters next year if it’s on, I’ll be there!

Sadly I can’t make it to @makerscentral this yea Sadly I can’t make it to @makerscentral this year 😭 but I have whipped up an instagram filter you can use to simulate what it would be like if I were there! 🤯
Just search for it under “miss you at makers” and use it at the show if you’re going!
Those going please have an amazing time 🥰
Side note: I made this with Spark AR which is brilliant, easy to use and there are some amazing tutorials out there showing you how to use it properly.  the pretty awesome @estefanniegg does a particularly great one on her YouTube channel 😎 if you want to learn more!

This guy 7 years ago had enthusiasm and passion and it came across on camera and felt great!
Pictured here I’m explaining how we’re about to take the @somakeitsoton Dalek with a sun hat to a carnival.
I need to get this enthusiasm back. 
Any tips?

We blooming made it! The cat is unimpressed but I We blooming made it!  The cat is unimpressed but I’m beaming with happiness at completing and testing my workbee CNC 🥰
Taken over 4 months but that’s down to illness and laziness as instructions from @ooznest were brilliant.
Should have used a larger tool for the cut but at the end of the day it worked and was my first major mistake to learn from. 
I’m going to be hasssling @dean_makes and @smelly_cat_creations for advice so I don’t make too many more 🤗
Guess I gotta make some stuff now! 🤔

Wow. Motors on the Workbee are powerful and not t Wow.  Motors on the Workbee are powerful and not to be messed around with or fought against.  This piece of ducting tried to and failed 😂 
Managed to catch it just as it was about to either rip the bracket from the wood or slice the ducting in half!

This is the review video for the 1419 CNC I got from Banggood.com.  It's a fantastic little machine for the money able to cut wood, plastic, stone and soft metals and I must admit, I love it.
If you do buy one of these machines please check out my build video for some assembly tips!

1419 Red CNC Review
YouTube Video UCF0zB_FmO7xkumjrFMHPb4A_qVfCnhFGE68
This is the build video for the 1419 CNC I got from Banggood.com.  Its a fantastic little machine for the money able to cut wood, plastic, stone and soft metals but instructions were lacking so I thought I'd give some a go.
This is my first build video so apoligies if its as helpful as rubber lips on a woodpecker and any and all feedback is welcome!
