Hi, LJs… I'm just beginning construction on a couple serving trays for Mummy Dearest's birthday. The trays will be mainly cherry, with walnut and tiger maple accent strips. I'd like the finish to be natural (no stain but some gloss). However, the trays will probably be used for dinners...

I have used different finishes on outdoor items. Well, I am making some little boxes for the kids, I will be using some Lacewood, Paduck, PurpleHeart, Canary wood, Figured Maple and Walnut. I would like to know what finish I should try to get the best POP on the grain and color for these woods...

If it were not for the knee deep BS, I would have a groovin crush on a really "special" member of LJs! :-0 ;-)

Does anyone know what this set of tools is used for? It looks like a trammel point on one side and a chisel on the other. Two sizes - the smaller one is about 2 38" from point to chisel and the other about 6". Both are 2" high. They came in a custom fitted wooden case. Jim

I know that there is a cutting board design software for Windows machines. I looked last night for Mac-compatible software and didn't see anything other than to install a Windows OS on the Mac such as Parallels. That seems like a solution, but I'm not willing to invest that time, money and...

There is a ball bearing that has fallen out of my band saws guide rod. ( I think that is what it is called.) Anyone know how to get this back in? I have searched the internet - but cant find any info on it. Im pretty sure it goes in there somewhere as the rod drops to the deck when it is...
