  2. Contemporary Coffee Table

    This was Bob Lang's design that I got from the internet. I made this for a family member. I mailed it through UPS. They sent me a photograph of it sitting in their living room. I think it fits well there. I also took a photograph shown in my living room before mailing it.
  3. 21st century workbench

    Well I have been looking forward to posting my first project up here and here it is. I made this out of Douglas fur that I milled myself with a woodmiser mill my neighbor has. I could not afford to build this out of ash so I made do with what I had available. I splurged on the vises with my tax...

I offered to build the bench if he purchased the wood. and I already have my two...

    About the Planning Phase... I have spent most of the year slowly reading through material and gather ideas for this build. I have also been slowly acquiring the last bits of equipment that I thought I'd need to get the job done, the last of which was a router table attachment for my table saw...

    Handplane Cabinet and use of Sketchup in the design For my Introduction to Woodworking class, we have a "final project" that we choose ourselves. Given that I'm learning to use hand tools, I've decided to make a handplane cabinet. In my latest blog entry, I show how I use Google (now...

    Contemporary Coffee Table I used Bob Lang's Popular Woodworking plan for this Contemporary Coffee Table. Within a few days I have milled the rough sawn poplar lumber, glued the table's top panel and then cut the legs, rails and aprons. I am making this as a gift for my wife's son Scot and his...

  11. Jigs & Fixtures
    I built a 24" x 24" MDF vacuum table for my CNC shark. It's made with two pieces-the bottom one has a 1" grid of 1/8" wide x 1/8" deep saw kerfs, the top is just machined off on both sides and the air will supposably flow through it. Not sure how it'll work; we'll see. The question is: should I...
