Mobile Drill Guide Stand. Many times I had the need to drill vertical holes with a drill bit, a forstner bit or a holesaw that the surface did not fit on my drill press. At first I designed a vertical drill guide stand based on dovetail slides, but been able to find a 30cm drawer guide that...

Holding pocket hole joinery components on edge has always been an issue, therefore a new jig. And here is mine. I've used Melamine because glue won't stick to it, and I had everything in my scrap bins. As shown, I've taken advantage of a groove already milled on the back by adding a cleat so it...

I decided to build a workbench for my dad because he has never really had a nice surface to work off of. So I started this project which is built from hard white maple. The top is 1 3/4" thick hard maple face glued in 1 3/4" sections. It is 30" wide and 72" long. The skirts are 3 1/2" maple. I...

A framed project is just one of those projects that every woodworker has to do in their lifetime. Right up there with a workbench, cutting board(which I still haven't made) and an adirondack chair. This project came to me via a family member who had a large mirror and wanted to build a frame...

These are 6 piece bird feeders that took about 30 minutes to make. Got the idea out of a scroll saw magazine. There is a peanut butter recipe that you can use also to feed the squirrels with. I think the apple is easier and less expensive though.

Zum Geburtstag für meine Frau schnell angefertigt. :-)

I love boxes with unique grains and features. This one is made with maple. It has eye catching designs throughout. The wood is referred to as "Ambrosia Maple." Now you might think ambrosia is a type of maple. Maybe even a type of wood… but it's not. Ambrosia is a beetle that burrows into...

I designed this tray for a couple as a gift. It's made of cherry, birdseye maple with a bubinga trim.

Hello All, When we moved into this house the living room fireplace kind of stuck out into the room not lending itself to any sort of "Traditional" entertainment center. We initially had two cheap cabinets on either side to hold our electronics and the TV just sat on top of the mantle but that...

I don't mind carpenters hanging around my shop drinking my beer, but when they start chewing holes in my deck, I get annoyed. To prevent Carpenter Bees from digging holes in my new screened in porch made primarily of cedar, I found a few references online to this type of trap. The concept is...

Just a couple of honey dippers that I made for my wife. She liked the padauk one too much to use it, so I made one out of maple. The soft red maple really had a hard time with the skew, and I had to redo the head of the dipper because of gouges. Thanks for looking!

Oak bookcase made with oak plywood for sides and shelves (with solid facings). I used solid oak for top and trim. This was my first project using a Kreg pocket hole jig which really speeded up the construction and was nice to use. It was finished with poly. I wanted a bookcase that would fit in...

This is a custom wall system. It is built similar to an entertainment center, but this one will be used for just storage. A few thing to note that I did on this project. The first is the pocket doors and adjustable shelves combination. Normally the recess movement pocket doors interfere...

As you can see from my shop picture (see shot #4), I am cramped into one bay of a three car garage. Since I keep purchasing tools, I have resorted to rolling carts that I can pull in and out of the second car port. This project is my turning tools cart. I have a Rikon midi lathe, a slow speed...

Visit my Etsy store to see the available wine bottle stoppers Project Description This segemented stopper is my fifteenth completed project in my June 2009 "30 Projects in 30 Days" challenge. Building these stoppers has been a lot of fun for me. Each design element allows for a number of...

When I was making my radial wave lamp, I needed to come up with a way to drill accurate holes through wooden balls. So I came up with this "clothespin" solution. I mounted a short board with a slot to a longer board and then drilled a hole with my variable-diameter hole saw. The hole saw's...
