I love modern minis but I just don't have the cash flow to buy what I like from some of the mini modern artisans out there, although I have purchased a thing or two that I could afford. A pouf and a Dwell magazine from PRD (because I don't know how to knit), some small items like faucets and the like from Elf Miniatures, a sofa from Minimodernistas and a table and cardboard deer head from Amazing Miniatures. Other than that I have mostly been buying vintage items on Ebay.
So, I thought I could start making a few things of my own. I broke down and bought a good mini table saw. It's awesone! I highly recommend it!
Here is what I made last week:
With any luck, I will carve out some time to make something else in the next week or so. ;-)

| With the table saw, I was finally able to make some accurate cuts and able to make grooves for the doors to slide on. It took a little longer than I expected but I think it turned out pretty well. The taps are from Elf Miniatures. |

Sooooooooooo well done!

This is a very nifty piece! I am curious about what table saw you purchased.It would be nice to get more precise cuts than I get with an x-acto saw or utility nice.
ReplyDeleteOh my! I meant utility knife!
ReplyDeletevery nice - ever notice that mods are seldom 'cute' more cool, amazing and fun

You're right! LOL! They're generally not "cute".
ReplyDeleteThe saw I got is a Proxxon FKS/E. It was a little more expensive, even though I got it as a demo on Ebay. I tried a cheap one and it just...well...sucked. They do have a less expensive one I think it's the 115 that seems like it would be really good too. I chose this one because it has the tilting blade which will make it very east to do angles.
I mean EASY to cut angles...
ReplyDeleteGreat job. Thanks for the details on the table saw. I'm looking to get one, but have a fear of power tool commitment. :P
ReplyDeleteNo, I didn't make the sinks. They are square dishes.
