  1. Coffee table

    This is one of those "quick 'n dirty"- projects, but it turned out pretty nice so I thought I'd post it here. A few birch dowels and a couple of screws to secure the top, and hey presto, you got yourself a coffee table. It's made from birch and measures about 860mm wide, 550mm deep and 440mm...

  6. Lizard bowl

    This is the only picture I got of this project before it got away. This was a collaborative effort with my wife, Heidi. She had a client that wanted a big bowl decorated with a lizard. I turned as big of a hunk of Hackberry as I could get on my lathe. Finished diameter is slightly over 11"...

    This is an open call to all tech-savvy woodworkers: What kind, if any, cutlist software do you or have you used? Did you like it? Would you recommend it? The reason I ask is that a long time ago (in a woodshop far, far away) I used Bridgewood's Cutlist Plus. It worked great for what I...

    Going through a neighbor's firewood pile, I found a nice crotch log and opened it up on the band-saw, scoring the ~8 nice mini-slabs ~10" x 14" and 1/2" thickness. I have slathered paint on the end-grain and stickered them to dry in the garage. I just have no idea what to do with them aside...

    After my last project, I realized two things. 1. I think my woodworking would benefit from a good hand plane or two and a few sharp chisels 2. I really need a way to sharpen them After a bit of research, a #5 plane was what I decided to go with. I just won a Stanley 5C on EBay for about $48.00...
