  1. Chest for Vocations Chalice

    A small red oak chest to protect a Vocations Chalice. It is taken by a different family each week to pray for people that decide to go into the priesthood or nun orders. Keep your scraps, you never know what you're going to be asked to make.
  2. Crhristmas Gifts 2010

    This year was a bit less ambitious than last year and usually involved turning. The first bowl is for my mother. Locally sourced camphor branch crotch piece. Normally I would keep the natural edge but this piece had some interesting spalting I wanted to feature in the bottom of the bowl so...
  3. Wine Table

    This was designed to have wine glasses hanging but I opted to make a drawer to hold bottle openers and such. I adjusted the heights of the two bottom rails slightly to keep a similiar look as the original plan. Oak with some walnut Danish Oil as the finish….now to stock it!
  4. Step stool

    My stool is made of red cedar. Made it woods class. I cut two pieces for each leg then jointed one side and glued each piece together with biscuits in the middle. For the top I did the same as the legs. Before I put the legs, sides and top together, I routed the top and the legs. After that I...

  7. Patience...

    Once you learn patience, making projects with reclaimed lumber is fun. This is a solid oak six drawer dresser made from pallet wood and lots of love. Wrestling this material into submission is no easy task, but take it one step at a time and you won't have any trouble…..patience It is oak from...
  8. Wind Spinner Fever

    Hello Again Fellow Lumberjocks! I learned this winter that sometimes it is not good to try new things…because you just might become obsessed with them! I built my first wind spinner in March. I had no idea how to create the iconic helical shape that so many wind spinners have but just happened...
  9. Shoe Rack

    This shoe rack was built at the request of my daughter. It measures 6 feet wide by 2 feet tall. It is made from white pine. I couldn't find a design online so my teenage daughter drew it on a piece of paper along with rough measurements. I think we both were satisfied with the end result.
  10. Christmas Prototype

    Well Christmas is a commin' and I'm already stressed. But, I must press on and this year I'm thinking the folks at work will get this plant stand. This is the prototype, a practice piece that was claimed by the Mrs. (She generally grabs thems when they meet her needs) The upright and feet are...
  11. 7 Shoe Horns

    These are more stock for the July Craft Show. They are made with 5 different woods. From Left to right : Rosewood( my favorite), Chestnut, Maple, Box Elder and 3 Mesquite. They are made with kits from Penn State with brass ferrules I made for the bottom to reinforce the wood around that end...

    Had this idea to represent all USAF Prime BEEFers! Made of red oak and cherry wood, the US Air Force Civil Engineering Challenge coin stand holds about 35 variously sized coins.
  13. Solving DC Resonance

    One of the goals of my recent shop remodel was to add a Dust Collection system. I chose the Grizzly 2HP system and put it in the uninsulated walkup attic above my shop. The floor of the attic was tongue and groove OSB sitting on 2X10 joists. The void in the joists was insulated with...
  14. Fairy door

    I've seen a few of these here and enjoyed them very much. This was a quick little fun piece I tried, and now I think I have to do more. It's carved in white pine, painted with goauche for color and coated with boiled linseed oil. I was inspired by the fun ones here in the projects posted...

  16. Safety in the Woodworking Shop
    Can anyone give advise on how to sound proof a little room containing the dust collector, which is inside the shop? I thought about putting it outside of the shop, but the problem remains because I have one neighbor who might be bothered by the noise. It is easier to just keep it within the...
  17. Power Tools, Hardware and Accessories
    Yet another set of planer questions….. I am looking to purchase a planer for my workshop and thinking about getting the Makita 2012nb as Makita claims to be quieter (83 db at idle) (Note: the Woodstore.net review http://images.meredith.com/wood/pdf/173benchtopplaners_chart.pdf shows it at 100...
  18. Power Tools, Hardware and Accessories
    I have used this dado stack in the past on my old saw and it was fine, I had excellent results. Yesterday was the first time I used the stack (a set of systematic blades) since purchasing my new saw (a powermatic 64a). When I turned the saw on it made a racket, a loud, low grumbling noise. I...
  19. Power Tools, Hardware and Accessories
    I recently purchased a grizzly 17" anniversary edition bandsaw (~3 months ago) and it just started making this noise from what appears to be the bottom wheel cabinet. So far I have put on new urethane tires and checked guide bearings to make sure they are not spinning freely. The noise only...
  20. Power Tools, Hardware and Accessories
    I'm a beginning woodworker and am shopping for a bench top planer. I have never used a planer before. The more expensive, quieter models are not in the budget and so I'm looking for ways to get a handle on the noise level. I do not have a garage other shop space, which has me setting up...
