  1. Joinery
    I need to join 3 rails, about 3/4 inch wide by 2 inches tall. Three of these rails, standing on their narrow edge, will come together to form a Y-shaped junction. There will be 90 degrees between two of them, and the remaining rail will form two 135 degree angles. Here's a picture: I'm...

  3. Easy-to-Build Bench Dogs

    These bench dogs were easy and quick to make with the shown maple scrap that I ripped 3/4" square to fit my workbench dog holes. Six inches lengths (providing two dogs) are rounded over at the router table with a 3/8" rounding over bit and then cut at the miter saw. After a quick stop at the...

    I've been commissioned to build a sofa table this weekend. It's to be 100 inches long and 15" wide, just narrow enough to fit through my planer. I plan on using table clips to attach the top to allow movement, and I'm going to challenge myself and get into mortise and tenon joinery for all the...

    I've built a few banks of cabinets and read a couple Bob Lang books. But I can't figure out when drawer stretchers (aka spreaders) are necessary. In my next cabinet build, I'm using tandem blumotion slides. The cabinets are a hybrid face frame-frameless. The face frame you see in the picture...

    Why I Decided to Build This So after reading Christopher Schwarz's book Workbenches: From Design and Theory to Construction and Use, I decided it was time I built myself a "real" workbench. I've had various bench-like structures that I've used as assembly tables, clamping areas, clutter...
