Hi guys, here's my finished angle gauge. The LED in the top is red and the one side comes off to change the batteries. Additionally the top threaded contact point is adjustable; it work's great. Also, I thought that I'd mention that I have a gear motor on the way from Florida to make a powered...

I threw these together a few weeks ago using some scrap lumber and plywood I had lying around the shop. The focus was to create some different shapes and play around with the bandsaw. Tung oil and paste wax was used for the finish.

Wall-mounted height ruler for my girlfriend's niece. The wood is maple, stained yellow and sealed with shellac. The lettering and details are woodburned. The edges were rounded over with router. Thanks for your interest in my projects.

I made this beam compass while in the middle of another project and discovered the little metal compass I had wasn't going to be big enough for my needs. This one is made out of some scrap red oak i had and is 2' long… that should be large enough. The locking mechanism works great on the...

This is my first attempt at a bandsaw box. It is also my Mom's birthday gift I gave her last month. I sandwiched mahogany between walnut for the blank. I made a template for half of the shape and traced it, then mirrored the template to get it symmetrical. I cut out the drawer in one cut...

Apparently I never uploaded this project - it was probably completed around September 2015. In the style of my first height board, http://lumberjocks.com/projects/81491 , I completed another chart for my son. Click the link for full measurement and build details, as the process was essentially...
