  1. Craftsman-ish window casing

    We moved into our house about 2 years ago. The back den was a horribly cold and dark area which I used to house the lawn mower for the first few months we lived here. We decided to remodel the back den and hired a guy who gave us a really lowball offer. After about a month of incessant coffee...
  2. Craftsman Window Casing Prototype

    In the June/July issue of Fine Homebuilding, the cover-story article was titled "Craftsman Casing - Simple elegance with site made trim". I loved the look of it, and my wife did too, so when we bought our house last year and I did some large-scale renovations, I took off all the existing...
  3. Artillary Shell Lamps

  8. Hand made window casing

    This is a project I did in school. I don't like taking the easy road, and instead gravitate to the more challenging methods/projects. We were tasked with fabricating baseboard, window casing, and crown molding. We all learned how to use a table saw to cut a cove, and we were given plenty of...
  9. Cherry Drop Leaf Table

    My shop help likes to take their "break" here. I have 2 sibling helpers: Max and Molly. This is Max in his favorite spot. The table has supports that rotate out under the leaf.

  15. Power Tools, Hardware and Accessories
    I have been considering buying some of these casing bits or the Crown Bits. I was wondering if anyone has used this style architectural bits and has any insight into their quality and ease of use. I am considering this because it will be a major cost savings for me on a few projects I have...
