  1. Oak Carousel

    This is an oak carousel I made for my wife. The ones you buy in the stores just don't cut it. They are not tall enough to put our table top spices under and if you put them on top they tip and spin off. This is made out of 3/4" solid oak. I used a Cabot dark mohogany stain for the napkin...
  2. First Cutting Board-My Version

    This cutting board is 11 5/8" W x 19 3/8" L x 1 1/4" thick Made of Purple Heart base, rings and plugs from Yellow Heart, Padauk, Mora and Maple. This was a very challenging project that so far took me 2 weeks. I learned a lot doing this project, for one, the rings have to be perfect and glue...
  3. Tile friendly Drinking Stool

    Boys and Girls, This was a quick dirty project I undertook and thought I'd test the stool while I prepared this "short for me" write up. To tell the truth I just had to re-glue a carpeted disc and used the pictures I took (other than the gallery ones) a few months ago for the write up.. A few...
  4. Bandsaw Multi Sled

    I will need a circle cutter for my new swivel Adirondack bar chairs, so in designing mine using various techniques from others I have seen, I settled on a T track system that will allow a longer track in case I need a large coffee table. Using 1/4×2" connector pointed end bolts from Home Depot...
  5. Second Cutting Board, My Version

    Thanks to Britboxmaker for encouraging me to step out of my comfort zone and make this design! It wasn't easy and I went through several discards while making this. The rings had to fit perfectly so I made them slightly larger and sanded them down on my drum sander and my belt sander little by...
  6. Makin it "On the Cheap" Router Circle Cutter (Prototype)

    Well, a friend and I were talking Friday and he said he needed a fast, accurate way to cut holes, 6" diameter, into some plywood sheeting. He was looking to make his own "Corn Hole boards", a game which has caught on like wildfire, around the USA… We discussed and researched and came to the...
  7. Circle cutting jig for TS

    I needed some circles for a project I was working on. I also had an old cross cut sled laying around after building my new super sled. So, first I dado a 1" wide, 3/8" deep strip down the middle of the sled ( Pic. 2). Next I made a strip of oak to fit the dado, put a 1/4" bolt in it that...
  8. Safety in the Woodworking Shop
    Hi Don't know if this is the right forum but I am seeking advice from members about how to setup a dust collection system. I am starting with basically a big shop vac but am looking for something bigger. Maybe someone has had personal experience with setting up on in their shop or perhaps...
  9. Wood & Lumber
    I buy wood blanks online and have them shipped to my shop. Sometimes I get really dry wood, mainly Purpleheart and Bloodwood. When I go to turn them, they splinter and chip. I have a sharpening machine for my chisels, and I only have this problem with Purpleheart and Bloodwood really. Even when...
