I've had this idea to make a dust separator for several months now, I even made the top for the bucket about 5 months ago, it's been sitting there ever since. Yesterday and today I took a little time to make it function. It's made out of all scrap osb and plywood I had lying around (as you can...

After reading lumberjocks for some years now, today I decided to post my last project. I'm setting up my new tiny workshop and the Bosch vacuum I have, gets filled in quite quickly. I have took the design from Phil Thien's website. The design was from retired2. I finally completed the project...

I hate dust. My shop is also my garage and dust gets on everything. I started out using a shop vac but it was really noisy and not that effective so I gave up on that. A 2hp dust collector seemed too expensive for me as a hobby woodworker on a budget and it would also take up valuable floor...

Appologies for the bad quality of the pictures. They are made with my phone instead of my camera. The grain of the Zebrawood goes around the box and, a little hard to see due the bad quality of the picture, the Padouk is bookmatched with the Wengé in between. Resawing is done with the bandsaw...

Christmas gift for my son, 2 handed sword made from laminated salvaged Walnut and scrap aluminum. The blade is 1/8" thick aluminum, sanded to 120 grit for texture and to help hide future scratches, while the blade is not sharp, it is beveled to give the appearance. The pins are solid aluminum...

My wife was cleaning up our daughters old room and came lugging out an old office chair that the kids had destroyed at some point. Instead of taking the base to the dump with the rest of it I decided to hang on to it and see if I could make something with it. This is what I came up with…a...
