  1. Projects Custom cherry cabinet with angled shelves for hand tool storage and display

    This is a custom cabinet for storage and display of hand tools. Made from a combination of cherry plywood and solid cherry. Features angled shelves secured with lamello clamex. Lights are just inexpensive low voltage units from Ikea. The most interesting part was design of execution of a bunch...
  2. iPhone Speaker

    I have been making various iPhone speakers for the last couple of years and selling or giving them away. My wife and I recently started an Etsy store, so I've been working on refining them and trying different styles. The pictures from the lathe aren't of the finished speaker in the first four...
  3. Handplane Till Build

    Hi, this is a very simple project with a bit of embellishment with the veneered slanted panel that holds the planes. The background could also be tongue and grooved pieces or even a simple piece of plywood. I coated the entire project with polyurethane. As always, stay safe in your shop and...
  4. Shopsmith Mark V Restoration

    I am a budding Shopsmith enthusiast and this is my 3rd Shopsmith (the other two being older Model 10ER machines). This one wasn't in too bad of shape when I got it (last picture), but I still decided to tear it down and completely refurbish it. I enjoy rebuilding old woodworking machines (I...
  5. Princess Toy Box

    This is a Disney Princess themed toy box I made for my daughter. it is made from pine using all hand cut dovetail constructions. It is basically a smaller version of a traditional tool chest. It is painted 4 different colors and decorated with removable wall stickers. So far it has been a big...
  6. Quarter Sawn Black Oak

    This is just one log from a tree I am milling and will get around 2000 bdft of quarter sawn 4/4. It is some real nice material with a light brown color full of tiger stripes. It will take a year for it to air dry before using. I also cut some nice 8/4 live edge slabs for table tops. More...
  7. Shaker Table and Chair

    The chair is beech, and the table is beech, poplar, and silver maple. The beech is finished with wax only. The table is painted with milk paint with wax over. I adapted the table from Ejner Handberg's book of measured Shaker furniture. The chair is in the style of the Shaker community at...
  8. Built to last

    It's the table not the chair. More can be seen at my web-site gifts4thee.com.
  9. Toolbox

    Japanese style toolbox. Made of eastern white pine. Really a simple design with hand cut mortise and tenon joints as well as some screwd butt joints. I had to adapt my apartament floor to be my workbench, since I don't have a workshop where I live at the moment. I really love the step up from...
  10. Twin Wall Cabinets

    I made these twin wall hanging cabinets for my daughters. They are constructed of Walnut and Poplar. I started the project while working with Ernie Conover of Parkman, Ohio in his hand tool joinery class. I helped as an apprentice with a couple of his other classes. I then completed them in...
  11. Power Tools, Hardware and Accessories
    I was just wondering everyone has a plane restoration project on every site in every book but you hardly hear anything about the setting up of a new handplane? I know how to set one up i just want to know how other people set up their new planes when they come across one on ebay from a friend in...

  14. Woodworking Skill Share
    I would appreciate any tips you LJs care to share. This is my second half-blind dovetail (the first one went better) and a multitude of things went wrong. First I marked it backwards, second I started to saw the wrong mark and then stopped, third I split the pin board trying to fit the tails in...
  15. Power Tools, Hardware and Accessories
    I've tried googling this, but maybe the answer is so simple that no one ever thought that this question would be asked. I've been trying to learn a little bit about handplanes by reading online, and have yet to figure out ifthere is any logic to the numbering scheme of handplanes. My only...

    Starting Point Hi folks! From time to time I've read posts on the LJ forum, but this is the first time I've posted, or rather blogged here. A bit of background about myself. My father was at one time a high-school shop teacher, but for reasons I can only guess (and I have a pretty good...

    A sunday afternoons pick for the shop! Hey friends, hope all is well out there. For anyone that enjoys my type of woodwork and shop I thought that I would have a separate blog series for when I am not actually working on projects but finding cool picks, auction purchases or just adding to the...

    Yearly Maintenance and Face Vice Tweak. I have been using my workbench for about a year now and I know darn well what makes me grumpy about it. Don't get me wrong, I love my bench, it's helped me build so much, but there are things that just have to change about it before I decide to beat it...
