  1. Table Saw Folding Outfeed Table and Router Table

    I built this folding outfeed table and router table for my R4512 Ridgid table saw. The deck is laminated plywood with Poplar edges and legs. I saw several similar designs on the internet and I utilized some ideas from all the designs that I have seen. I was able to utilize the t-slot on the...
  2. TS Outfeed Table with down draft

    Disclaimer… I blogged this project a couple years back, but when reviewing my projects page recently I realized that I never wrapped it up with a project post. I like to use my projects page as a type of woodworking journal, so I hope none of you mind me posting this after the fact. That said…...
  3. Inside out turning

    This is my first attempt at an inside out turning. It is made from marble-wood. The third picture shows the first step in this process, with the four blanks temporarily glued together, and the center turned and finished. The fourth picture shows the four pieces after they have been flipped...

    I really wanted to make a table with a top that looks like a quilt…this project provided the perfect opportunity, the top is solid wood with biscuits holding the pieces together and then an edge banding around the outside

  7. Inside Out Woodturning | Heart Shaped Pendant

    I used the technique of inside out woodturning to make this heart shaped pendant, to tell the truth it may have been easier to make this on the scroll saw but I was interested in trying the technique! For more on this project and the process of inside out woodturning visit here...
  8. Torsion Box Out-Feed / Assembly Table

    So this is my first attempt at a torsion box design. I've seen them all over LJ and have been itching to build one. I am in my last 3 weeks of civilian carpentry employment before I go Active Duty with the Navy as a Nuke for at least six years, so I definitely don't need one for myself (yet)...

    Here's a way to get one or maybe two more cuts out of that board. Using a scarf joint. What is a scarf joint, you say. Just make a jig with a 20 degree angle on it. Lay it on your board in the middle, using your circular saw make a long cut on the angle you just drew using a straight edge.. Next...
  11. Woodworking Skill Share
    Ok, so I am following McLeanVA's blog on how to make a zig-zag cutting board, and while running my boards through the planer I got a major chunk of tearout on one piece. Now because this is a cutting board I know I want all my pieces tight and no holes or gaps for bacteria to grow, so how do I...

    To ensure that when I use a straightedge, the straightedge in my hand is truly straight and doesn't just look straight, I checked my straight edge tools (squares, steel rulers, the combination ruler blade, etc.) against my Bridge City Toolworks (24") straight edge. The results show that several...

    Nose to the grind stone. I've been out pumping out some cabinetry. I was trained in a custom shop so the kitchens I've built tended to be mid to high end work. When I first opened my shop I got a large cabinet job about $40,000.00 without counter tops for a 3000 sq. ft home. Did some pretty...

    What was your first experience with handplanes? Mine was about 7 years ago, I still wasn't doing anything woodworking like, and we had moved to a new apartment where the bathroom door wouldn't close since it was too tall and would hit the jamb (well- actually we mounted one of those...

    In the Beginning... This is my most ambitious project to date. I'm going to make a Greene & Greene sofa table that closely follows the design of premier G&G LJ Darrell Peart. I pinged him the other day, and he sent me to American Furniture Design Co. to buy plans. As you can see, they're not...

    Torsion Box Top Here is my idea of a ultimate work station for and around my cabinet saw. Here is a progression of photos as I build each stage. First is the cabinets with where the router will be there are 6 adjustable feet that allow me to adjust from "0" to about "2" inches so every surface...

    Hawgnutz- Reading along, I guess the distilled wisdom I am seeing here can be summarized as follows: Oil and water don't mix. If you use oil of any sort spread rags out to dry before discarding-MAJOR spontaneous combustion hazard BLO, BLO/MS, Watco etc. make an easy but not tremendously...

  19. Finishing
    As I was sanding down my latest project, a few inclusions in the wood appeared. I'm left with one small spot that looks like some grain tore out, and a little divot elsewhere. Both are shallow, probably 1/16" or less. I am wondering the best way to address these. I don't want to fill it with...
