 A new til for the hand planes #1: Start with a planHad to happen…I build a new Tool Cabinet for the rest of the hand tools….and now the hand planes are feeling “Neglected”... The til beside them USED to be full of hammers, they have since moved over to the new “house”. So….bought some more 1×10s, and some 1×4s….First, I need to know how big to build what, and where. Hammer til was removed and sent to the firepit. Planes IN the til got moved out….the bigger ones to a coupl... Shop Cabinet build #12: Plugs done, latches installed, stain appliedUpdate on that plug cutter, needed sharpened…and a skinny board for the vise on the drill press. was having trouble cutting the plugs.. Once they were made, a small screwdriver could pop them out, dab of glue on the narrow end, and tap into place.. let the glue set a bit. Chisel and a tap with the hammer to trim the plugs down…block plane to smooth things out.Sharpened the cutter, today.. And made the last 11 plugs. made a road trip to Lowes, and picked up the latche... Shop Cabinet build #11: We have hinges!Got to the point I just had to get out of the house..can only stay cooped up so long. So, mail a box out, then head to Lowes for a bit…even had the van’s window down a bit….enjoyed the fresh air, as it were…. Anyway, bought 2 hinges. 30” long. With TINY screws…We have ways… Had some 1” screws I could add in, about every 4th screw. Had the driver for the screws, another with a VIX bit… Needed a way to set the doors open, while... Shop Cabinet build #10: Clamps came off, build-a-door #2, and other stuffAll clamps came off. 1×4s hauled to the shop…supplies laid out, even found a full box of 2” long, coarse thread screws…. So, laid the 1×4 x 6’ down on the mitre box…find the center…should leave 2 pieces at 36” long…in theory I can’t hold the saw in a “death grip”...makes sawing go better…also use the entire length…not just more teeth, it keeps the wear on just the middle section of the saw to a min...  Steel and Wood Crucifix.https://youtu.be/-8MHdyL3nXA In this video I make a gift for Father Benny. Shop Cabinet build #9: rack for some chisels, door#2 started..Taking things a bit slow, lately….taking it easy on the right hand….so had a stash of extra chisels.. Along with a few everyday users….some of the “extras” can go back in the rack along the back of the tool well…about 7 needed a new home, though. Dug around in the scrap pile….wanting a couple strips. 2 that were a bit on the thicker side, and one thin one. One of the thicker strips was cut down to about the right length, to fit inside a d... New found storage under my lathe.https://youtu.be/KStTsg8M35g In this video I build tool storage under my Jet wood lathe. Shop Cabinet build #8: Build a doorFirst, I need a glue up done…two 1×10s hauled to the shop. trimmed down from 4’ to 36-1/8” long, then clamped up and the edges jointed. Then glue the two together, into a panel… needed a few cauls… Should have seen the knots on the ends I cut off.. Let this mess sit a day…had to go out and buy some new 1×4s, anyway…last two were a bit too bowed up…So, took the clamps off.. 2 of the 3 new 1×4 x 6’ boards were hau... Lathe tool box.In this video, I use scrap wood to build a storage box for my lathe turning tools. https://youtu.be/mckc3SQAVyg Shop Cabinet build #7: Load it up !Ok…took a few days, and moved a few things around… Used to be a red, plastic shelf with a few screwdrivers hanging there…and a couple boxes were moved….hmm. How about a tour of the cabinet….still have two doors to build, but… Red shelf is filling up…I salvaged the rack from the old drill til, as well.. Upper right hand corner… Bottom right corner…thinking I could store a plane along the bottom edge… Bottom left corn...
