  1. More Braided Cutting Boards

    I posted my first successful attempt at making this type of board a while back (http://lumberjocks.com/projects/207130). I never posted any of the follow-ups though. Here are three. The're made from hard maple, African padauk and purple heart.
  2. Rosewood Ring with Braided Maple Inlay

    These are lucets, tools for making cord that date to the Vikings. Last year my wife got a lesson on making cord at the CLA show (Contemporary Longrifle Association). While heading to the Upper Peninsula of Michigan we stopped at the fiber festival in Allegan MI. Cathy saw these things for...
  8. Chisel Plane

    My version of a chisel plane, inspired by GarageWoodworks. I wanted a rabbet plane of some sort to clean up after my new fillister plane and while I'll probably eventually buy one, I remembered the chisel plane project sitting in my favorites and decided to have a go at it. It's made of 3/4"...
