  1. Another Chest Lid Shadow Box

    Was asked to make a chest-lid shadow box by a Navy colleague that had seen my work on Lumberjocks. The case is dove-tailed American Cherry, with a 4 mm. Lexan face. It was hoped that it would look like the lid of an old sea chest. It's finished in Varithane Cabernet Stain and a Matte Min-wax...
  2. Valentine's Ring Box with Purleheart Ring

    A little Valentine's ring box made from hand with Birdseye maple and Walnut. All pieces were cut and milled by hand using my Veritas saws and Woodriver 5 1/2 plane. The dovetails are handcut, again with Veritas saw, and are my first ones to be in a project. I used the wood hinge method from...
  3. Essential Tool Chest

    I finished this project about a month ago and have been using it in the shop since. I finally got around to taking some pictures and would like to share them. The tool chest is working nicely. This is the first project that I have completed to use dove tail, half blind dovetails, tenons and...
  4. Twin Drawer Platform | Custom

    This is drawer platform that is a little different then my normal version. I normally inset the drawers under the bed a little. With this version I brought them all the way to the edge. I dressed it up by using a leather style pull and brass corner protectors. I also upgraded this one by...
  5. Finaly a work bench

    Table top, wagon vise and runners are mahogany and the legs are glued up southern yellow pine. The legs are a through Tennons. I rand 2 threaded rods through the table to help hold it tight. I was able to use some hand planes and a card scrapper to level and clean up the top. Took a while...

    I am trying to find a decent dovetail jig for around $50-$75. I don't need anything fancy and only plan on using it for hobby purposes. I don't foresee needing anything larger than a 12 incher for what it do currently. I am looking at the WoodRiver Half-Blind Dovetail Jig. Anyone have any...
  7. Power Tools, Hardware and Accessories
    Once I get my camera back I will do a full review. I will say that this was one of those rare occasions when I actually read and watched the enclosed directions and DVD first (several times) before trying to use it. And it paid off. The first joint was a tad tight and the depth of cut was a...

    I've got a Rockler Dovetail Jig that I purchased for a project, but have not used since. I'd like to sell the complete kit along with the dust collector attachment (which is still in the box) to offset the cost of some other additions to my workshop. The jig comes with the main fixture, two...

    I came across this add on CL Seattle, http://seattle.craigslist.org/est/tls/2318756466.html. I was wondering if any of you LJ'ers have ever used or had an interest in a machine like the one that is offered here.

    I am currently looking for a Woodtek flap sander owner to test a product I recently invented and have a patent pending on to align the brushes and flaps prior to reassembly of the flap sander head. It was built and designed for the Grizzly model and the Woodtek model looks nearly identical...

    My wife and I are driving up from Skokie, IL to Richland Center, WI next weekend for the 2-day Scroll Saw Trade Show aka 'picnic'. Just curious if any other LumberJocks are going… would look forward to meeting any and all…
  13. Woodworking Skill Share
    Last week, I bought an old piece of furniture. Seller claimed it was over 100 years old. Truth be told, I didn't really care. It was solidly built, and in reasonably good shape. With a little TLC, I thought it could be quite nice. This past weekend, I did some restoration. Frame is solid...

    I recently purchased a Rockler Complete Dovetail Jig and though the jig itself is awesome, I'm having some issues with tearout. The tearout is on both the sides and bottom of the pins and tails. Now, I'm using cedar, which I'm sure is part of the problem since it's so soft, however I've had...

    l started to pratice making various types of joints with my Incra jig and router. However it looks like I will need to get some better router bits. So I did some research on Incra router bit sets. Top of the line appears to be Whiteside, Infinity or Frued. These sets run around $110. However...
