  1. 4 Euro Short Chisel Mallet

    4 Euro Short Chisel Mallet Few days ago I saw a very nice short chisel mallet build by our buddy Kiefer/Klaus and he kindly gave me the dimensions to build one. I only changed the handle as I have no lathe so I rounded square handle a bit longer which fits better in my hand. I also "stolen" his...
  2. wood table and chair set for child just starting to walk and learning to sit.

    My nephew needed a table and chair set to sit at as he is starting to walk using furniture to get around to keep his balance. The chairs are at the right height for a 8 month boy to start out with. he has a brother on the way so that is why I made two chairs. These were my own design. I looked...

  4. The Danada Cabinet

    Designed and built for my friend Danada who wanted a cabinet to keep dvd's and cd's. Its named after her, because, like her, its small size give no hint as to the amount of trouble it can cause. The designs on the doors are taken from her favourite artist (Don Li-Leger) and are burnt it. The...

    This chest was made for a couple's firstborn baby boy. They are doing a pirate theme in his room and wanted a toy chest that looks like an old pirate treasure chest. The body is made from pine shelving boards, knots, cracks, splits, and all. "The more rustic, the better." they said. To simulate...
  6. Short Maple Bookshelf

    My girlfriend wanted a bookshelf for her birthday last year, so this is what I came up with. It's mostly 3/4" maple plywood, edged with solid maple, and solid maple facia. Finished with Minwax Polyshade. I'm not entirely happy with the finish since it totally obscures the grain, but oh well...

    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...

    Ripping short and narrow pieces on a radial arm saw To: all you radial arm saw users I was working with 12" x 12" Baltic birch plywood sheets - 1/8" and 3/8" thick. I needed to cut 2 3/8 inch wide by 12 inch strips from the 1/8" sheets. If the pieces were longer, I would use my board...
  10. Joinery
    Hi All, Trying to make these Through DT's is going to be the death of me yet. As you can see from the attached, the Tails are too proud and too short, making the Pins appear to proud and too short. How do I get these Tails down to size? Or if making the Pins shorter and longer, how is that...

    There can never be too much It seems like everytime someone says that he has "extra" lumber, or "more than enough" people jump to say that there can never be too much, as someone said: "there is no such thing is just enough, and too much is just right". I came upon a shop that closed, and they...

    Search for Interesting Cut-Offs I primarily make small woodstuffs (my name keychains being the most popular) and I feel really guilty buying a large board of some beautiful exotic or domestic hardwood and then hacking it up into pieces that I can use. I feel that the board should go into a fine...

    Needing some advice and input: I have a 2" thick, hospital patient, fire rated solid core door laminated with a wood-grain formica of sorts longing for a use in my evolving garage turned shop…wood working bench? My initial thought was to attach 8/4×4" white oak to eliminate any sag. Note: My...
