  1. Sandpaper storage cabinet

    I just finished making my wall cabinet for my sandpaper. I designed this myself for my needs. It holds 6 different belt grits, 10 different sheets of sandpaper, my sandpaper rolls, 3 sanding pads, painter's tape, and 2 sanding blocks. I also wanted to add a door because dust always seems like it...
  2. Sawyer Entertainment Center

    Its a small world. These people found me in the madness of the world wide web. They asked for references. The day of install, I found out that Rob worked with another person that I did work for several years ago. That wasn't one of the references I provided, but certainly an enormous trust...
  3. Gavel

    It's pretty simple, but I'm proud of it nonetheless. It's made from ash.
  4. Restored Pine China Cabinet

    Thsi project was a challenge, but it was also a special project that meant a lot to me. My grandparents recieved this cabinet and matching harvest table (post seperate pics of table later) as a wedding gift in 1943. The cabinet sat in the dining room up until the 80's - replaced by new dining...
  5. High Rent District Birdhouse

    My wife got a hold of plans for constucting a birdhouse designed as a scale model of NYC's Chrysler Building. Both being native NYC folks and a birdhouse project, I had no choice but to go for it. The model is mostly 1/4" plywood. The only prefab I used was the decorative molding between the...

    I hope this is the right place for this question: I have (only) FIVE "matching" walnut shelves (each 3/4" x 7-9/16"" x 56") that are (at least) 60 years old. My parents (both deceased) "handed these down" to me when I went off to college 50-ish years ago. I did use them as shelves while in...

    Block plane and Joiner Plane Just playing around in the shop and came accross these planes. I made them a couple years ago, and really enjoyed it. Nothing too fancy, and the basic plans came from a book on making hand planes. They are a pleasure to use as the shavings come peeling through the...

    Free Black Walnut... what to do with it?? I found a woman on craigslist who was giving a black walnut tree away for free! Through many emails and texts, I finally got the go ahead to pick it up… Her original post said that her tree servicer would cut it to specific length, if desired. I...
  9. Designing Woodworking Projects
    I use a lot of narrow walnut around 6" but I recently wound up with around 2400 B.d. / F.t. of veneer grade walnut all 6/4 to 8/4 thick and 12" - 26" wide. All 26' long. Live edge both sides. Very, very nice looking walnut. I cant seem to figure out how to best utilize it. I'm not cutting it up...
  10. Wood & Lumber
    I just acquired a bunch of cedar shakes that were on the roof of my grandparents home. They are 30 years old and are just awesome! Looking for help with project ideas for putting them to use. Give me your ideas.
  11. Marketplace Classifieds
    Anyone interested in back issues of of woodworking magazines? I don't have complete sets, but enough to give you an idea of how things change over the years (and how they stay the same). The older issues are fun to look at. The ads say a lot! They all have great projects. Some are dated, but...
