  2. antique repairs ... an appreciation

    well, sometimes we all get so caught up in making new stuff that we can forget the pleasure and learning opportunities that can be gleaned from repairing old stuff. recently, some of my favorite clients emailed to tell me that the 20 pound weight that drives the 1840's works of their aaron...

  4. Repair job on a Keepsake Box for my granddaughter

    Repair job on a Keepsake Box for my granddaughter. A woodworking mate made this box for me a year ago. The box is Jarrah with a recycled door panel with an inlay for a lid. In the latest move, the lid got stress and split down the join. Glued together with "medium thick" clear Starbond plus...
  5. A Woodshed, A House Project and Technology in the Workplace

    I've posted some new blog entries. The latest one is about recreational carpentry and a new woodshed I built in my spare time this spring and summer. Another one is about a house project we are working on that involves a wall hung tv cabinet, a painted library, some doors and a lighted cabinet...
  6. Cyndi's Bookcase - Quarter sawn red oak.

    Dec 2014 Here's a bookcase, similar to the one I posted earlier "Liam's Bookcase", made from quarter sawn red oak. My client wanted red oak, not my favorite, and when Woodcraft had a killer wood sale with QS red oak at less than $4/bf I couldn't resist. During my Sickley phase, a bedroom...

    Walnut and Hard Maple.
  8. The Blanket Chest

    It's always nice to make something new. Sometimes though, it's really nice to restore something as well. This chest was in a fire at my clients' house … the second picture in the series above is the before shot … the third is before we 'touched it up', doing as little as possible to 'preserve...
  9. Woodworking Skill Share
    I'm working on(repairing) an early 1900's side board. This is clearly a production piece but the construction seems almost haphazard. I'm looking at what appears to be original nails without pilot holes and screws securing the top through the outside moulding. Almost as if a factories crew...
  10. Woodworking Skill Share
    I had this drawer that was not fitting properly and decided it was worth trying to disassemble and reassemble before starting from scratch. I have never broke apart glue joints before and read about the freezing option and steaming option. I did not spend a lot of time looking, but these...
  11. Power Tools, Hardware and Accessories
    Hello! May be a silly question but better to ask before I cause major problems. Other than realigning the top, what problems could occur if I remove a cabinet mounted trunnion top? I'm thinking there would be nothing else but better to ask. I have to get the saw into the basement and have a few...
  12. Woodturning
    It all started out when I was planning for the new G0766 lathe from Grizzly. I asked AZWoody if his mill had some fodder I could work with. He saved me several pieces, one of which was this 40 lb. chunk of Eucalyptus. It had some drying splits that required repair with CA and fine dust from...
  13. Finishing
    Hi all - I made a table for my camper, and at the very end of the process, when attaching the mount to the bottom, I accidentally drilled a hole right through it. Super frustrating. Does anyone have any ideas of tbe best way to cover up / hide such a hole?
  14. Focus on the Workspace
    We have had our saw mill for about 20 years no problems everything was going good and then we broke a belt! Companies been out of business for the last five years can't get any replacement parts wondering what you guys all do when a great company goes out of business and you need replacement...

    Multiple office side chairs with inherent design flaws It is unclear at this writing how many of these I will host, but there is a pile of them at the office, all out of commission. They were built by an unknown local cabinet shop. Almost all of them failed at the mortise and tenon joint...

    start: spinningwheel repair I will confess a fascination with spinning wheels and looms and all related things. partially because they look so complicated, partially because they have so much variation. it seems like (with the pre-massed produced ones), every single one is somewhat different...

    Building the blank Started making the pieces for another cholla bowl this morning, and figured there's been enough interest in what I've done that I should write it up. The first step is building a base on a faceplate for my lathe. I've been aiming at bowls that are 6-10 inches in diameter, so...

    maintenance time Welp I finally bit the bullet and took on my sagging foundation. The building I am using was a kit from Lowes which 18 year old me built to exactly what the instructions said. the major flaw in the design is it didnt come with sill plates (I made sure the new half has them.)...
  19. Joinery
    Hello, I am a new wood worker, going on about 10 months. A friend has asked for help repairing a computer desk. From his description, and I hope I have this right, the sides and back are particle board and the top is a heavier wood, though not sure if it is solid. The back panel has fallen, and...
