I asked my 3 oldest kids, along with my niece, to come up with maker marks for me to choose from. They each filled a sheet of paper with ideas based around these criteria: my initials (I.J.) and possibly Bad Back Wood Working (I developed some lower back issues sometime ago), it also had to be around a couple inches square. I noticed that a few of them include the current year or the year I started woodworking, I thought that was a nice idea, which they came up with on their own.
I chose a...

Last week I was lucky enough to have LJ’s own Doc Savage visit my shop. Of course I put him to work while he was there!!
All kidding aside, it was nice of him to stop by and we had a really nice visit.
Anyway, I shot some video of him while he was here and included it in my most recent shop update.
Among that and other things, I also discuss having a little trouble with a minor upgrade to my Festool Domino.
Check it out and...

Due to some concerns about copyright infringement, I have decided to take down this blog. This is by my choice and not by anything that has happened (NOTHING has happened, just dont want to tempt fate.)
Thanks for looking at the original blog!

After seeing a few of my other veneer works, I was approached to make a Red Sox wall hanging for someone to give as a gift. Seeing as how I am still looking for more experience on this marquetry kick I’m on, I decided to go for it. Now, I’m not a fan of Baseball period, so don’t let this logo make you think I’m a Red Sox fan.
We decided on a rather large size of 24”x24” overall, which will be more beneficial to me for the small pieces that needed cutting...

Recently I had a logo drawn up for me. After years of just simply signing my initials in sharpie and/or inlaying a Montana quarter, I was going to finally bite the bullet and have a custom stamp made (not like a rubber stamp, but more of an embossing imprint). The starting price on the site was around $160. Pretty steep but sure would be really cool to finally have one. After sending them my info for a quote I was taken aback by the $380 price tag for my 1 1/4” logo. That’s w...

I have been trying different methods for adding a custom Logo to wood. I believe I’ve done just about all the methods on youtube and even the blogs here on Lumber Jocks. The other day I was thinking about this and wondered if there were clear plastic peel and stick labels that would work. Well there is.
Some of the methods I have tried are:
Water slide decals,
Laser printer/copier transfers using a variety of solvents,
T-shirt transfer,
Heat transfers.
I thi...

It’s not technically a woodworking project so I can’t post it in the main project section but if can be used on all of your projects. I hope this can help you out and save some money. This is an extremely easy way to get a nice custom logo or message on your projects. If you feel like it would help others out feel free to share it in the forum or wherever else you want. Here’s the quick video:

So I delivered the tabletops tonight to the coffee shop and helped my friend install them. It was very gratifying to see this big project come to a successful end. They seemed genuinely pleased with their purchase.
Now I’m sharing with you, my lumberjock friends.

Some friends of mine run a local Coffee Roasting and Espresso Bar here in my area (Michigan), and they contacted me about building six new table tops for their coffee shop. For the design, we decided to inlay their company logo in each table.
I’m using Maple, Walnut and Cherry.
I decided to start with making the star.
To save some work, I made just two variations, but made them thick enough so that after the glue up, I could slice them in to multiple st...
