  1. Laser Cut Center Finder Jig from MDF

    I made this drawing and jig to avoid a 20-mile drive in the rain to WoodCraft. I guess I saved a few bucks, since I have easy access to a Laser Engraver. Check out the details at http://www.instructables.com/id/-Find-Your-Center-/
  2. Dust hood for miter saw station

    Dust collection hood for my miter saw station. New shop is finally getting setup.. Only about a dozen more things to do.
  3. Upgrade from TV trays (Entertainment Center)

    We were given a 40" TV from my in-laws (won in a raffle). The problem was we had an "old style" TV stand that didn't fit one of these "new fangled" flat panel TV's. So our new TV sat on a couple TV trays butted together for a while. I decided on the Woodsmith issue #169 Wide-Screen TV Cabinet...
  4. Mission Pendulum Clocks

    Here are a clutch of clocks that I have made, right down to designing the clock faces. The movements are quartz battery-driven pendulum types with a speaker and chimes. Wood is quarter-sawn oak "fat veneer" bookmatched over less figured QS white oak. Stain on the two clocks are various...
  5. Quarter Sawn Murphy Bed | Custom

    This bed was completed on 01-21-2009. I call it the Euro Murphy Bed because of it's European styling, its clean lines and contemporary look. It seems lately this has been the most popular Murphy bed (see my last post). There are a few things that set this apart form the others. First of all...
  6. New Deck

    Had to replace the back deck about 5 years ago because, well, it had issues. I don't recommend doing this sort of job in the fall in Seattle. You'll get soaked. I used tight knot cedar and finished the decking with marine grade Penofin prior to installing. The ties are all galvie simson. The...
  7. Power Tools, Hardware and Accessories
    I just removed my dado blade, and tried to install my normal blade-and the arbor nut won't cinch tight against the blade-there's at least a 1/16 of space between the blade and nut. Of course, the blade then wobbles, and isn't tight. Might I have pulled the arbor out by 1/16 or 1/8 when I...
  8. Wood & Lumber
    Good Morning Fellow Lumberjocks! I have a rather amateur question here… I cleaned out a storage unit for some free wood thinking I would get a bunch of plywood and pine lumber with about half a pallet of random crown mouldings. To my surprise… burried underneath all of this cheap lumber I found...
  9. Woodworking Skill Share
    A buddy of mine asked me a question that I felt I couldn't answer to my satisfaction so it came to me all you masters on here could help. Ken, I'm still looking at cutters that will do what I want, lots of info, just not alot of detail. I would like to be able to make exterior and interior...

    Hi All, Woodketeer Here. My wife is a passionate and accomplished knitter. She uses an app called Ravelry to organize her stash as well as list her knitting patterns and books. As my woodworking library has grown I've reached the point where I'm buying duplicates because is every bit as...

    When it rains it pours ... literally and figuratively. If you've been following the weather (or live in the northeast) you are no doubt aware of all the rain and flooding we're dealing with this week. There was a landslide almost in my backyard closing a state highway. Five days later, and...
