  2. Tale of Two Tool Chests

    I am headed off to the Great Lakes Woodworking Festival in Adrian, Mi tomorrow, and I realized (several weeks ago) that I didn't have a proper way to transport my tools. So I ended up making a pair of tool chests. The one on the left is a small Dutch tool chest via Chris Schwarz (...
  3. Dutch Tool Chest

    This is my completed dutch tool chest. It was built mostly according to Schwarz's plans in Popular Woodwoorking though I added a little drawer to the side for my oily rag in a can (a la Paul Sellers). Need to complete the tool holding components yet but the box itself is finished. Held together...
  4. Sjoelbak anyone? (Dutch shuffleboard)

    This was a project that I have wanted to build for a long time, and I finally got around to it. I promised the family it would be done by Christmas, and what do ya know! It's done a month early! For those of you not familiar with Dutch shuffleboard, it's a very fun and addictive game. Each...
  5. Dutch tool chest for hand tools

    I needed storage for my growing hand tool collection. After looking at options I decided to try a dutch chest. Time will tell if I like working out of it, but for now it's keeping the dust off my tools. I know these are traditionally painted, but this was my first with hand cut dovetails and I...
  6. Keepsake box

    Here is a box I made for my mother (she is Dutch). It is walnut with meranti corner keys. The lid is an antique dutch tile. I wrapped the grain around the box. She loved it. Finish is danish oil (I couldn't find dutch oil.. :) )
  7. Arch-Top Dutch Door

    A few "firsts" on this one. My first commissioned piece, my first time building a door, my first time working with white oak, and my first time having to deal with wood expansion. I've already had the doors taken down and returned to trim the edges. As I live in sunny, hot and humid Florida...
  8. Craftsman Bed

    Hey Guys, I made this Craftsman style bed for my wife and I last winter. It was a big step up from a matress on the floor! I use plainsawn red oak for my Craftsman projects because white oak doesn't grow in my part of the world. (Fredericton, New Brunswick, Canada) I suppose I could order it...
  9. Dutch Toolchest

    I built the Anarchist's Toolchest, but realized how quickly the lid became a place to store things when closed (I share space in a shop so I usually put whatever I was working on on top of it at the end of the day to free up bench space for others, then had to move it all the next day to get...
  10. Walnut and Zebrawood Nightstand

    Our old ikea nightstand were worn out. Time to build one! A walnut and zebrawood night stand. The case is a mitered box with waterfall esque grain flowing all the way around it. The miters are reinforced with maple splines. It is a 2 drawer nightstand with poplar drawers and a zebrawood front...
  11. Dutch Tool Chest

    I built this Dutch tool chest to sit on top of the saw bench that was my last project. It is made from home center #2 pine. It was an easy build. I pretty much followed the plans in the October 2013 issue of Pop WW, except I thought there was some wasted space in the lower compartment so I...
  12. Mini Dutch Door, Craftsman Style

    I've been building a playhouse for my niece and nephew and needed to whip up a front door for it and get it installed so that we could finish putting siding on the little structure. Their mom wanted to be able to easily see in while the kids were playing, so the answer seemed to be to make a...
  13. Designing Woodworking Projects
    Any ideas on how to make WWPA 105 shiplap siding? I'm new to woodworking…I thought I could make it use a router, so I went and purchased a router and router table, but now I'm not so sure. Can this be done with a router, and, if so, what bit(s) should I buy? If not, what tool should I buy?
  14. Hand Tools
    Sooo, I have a small predicament…I am working on a Chris Schwarz Dutch Tool Chest Build and I am building it via a video he made and his pdf plans and I FORGOT TO ADD ONE OF THE TWO SHELVES!!! He presented the small chest but I built the bigger one. I don't know how I missed it but I only put...
  15. Blogs
    Layout (Sorry this should be First) For three years I've been storing my woodworking tools in cardboard boxes. As I started relatively small, the box held most of my marking, layout and measuring tools. The planes were stored in the boxes they cam in. I knew I needed to build a toolbox...

    Bent Plywood in Modern Design Here is a great video from the Museum Boijmans van Beuningen in Rotterdam. Sorry i couldn't embed the video-the code is giving me problems. Enjoy!
  17. Power Tools, Hardware and Accessories
    I have a 1945 Sterling 1000 electric sander in the original box with all the pads, accessories, sand paper, oil, even replacement motor brushes. I want to sell it, however I have no idea if it has a value outside of it's cool-ness. I prefer to sell it to someone who would appreciate it for it's...
  18. Focus on the Workspace
    I have not read The Anarchist's Tool Chest, I have seen The Woodwright's Shop episode on same but last night I went to see Schwarz give a presentation and show off his new Dutch tool chest. I like Schwarz because he puts a lot of time and thought into how he works but what works best for one...
