When I bought my new aquarium they had a flimsy pine and pressboard stand that you could purchase for $200.00 more. First, this is a 45 gallon aquarium…it weighs a lot! Like around 400+ pounds filled. Second, the thickest board on their $200.00 special was 3/4" pine. The pressboard was 1/4"...

As a hobbyist on a very tight budget, I have to look for bargains in used tools. So when I got the opportunity to pick up a vintage Craftsman saw for $35 to replace my el cheapo jobsite saw, I jumped. Of course the downside of most of these old saws is the frustrating fence (if it's even still...

This bowl is about 3 inches wide

The following project was made from Palo Verde that had laid in a wood pile for sometime. This was a bear to turn and was a real tool duller. Has can be seen from the pictures there were numerous cracks and consequently to keep it from blowing apart I left the walls fairly thick, just to the...

This is the auxiliary fence I built over my rip fence on my SawStop. The subfence fits with a piston fit and the tall fence bolts onto it. Everything is made from baltic birch plywood and the tall fence is skinned with formica for durability, slickness and easy visibility to reference lines...

Here's my most recent shop project. It's a magnetic switch table saw fence. My table saw's old fence was never consistent, and I hated the front to back clamp system. I'd love a Biesemeyer fence and the front alignment, but they're definitely too pricey/fancy for my used Craftsman contractor...

This display was made with a nice piece of black walnut. The skull is covered with a piece of leather and finished with some twine like rope. I made it so it can hang on the wall or stand alone.

I like my 10" Jet contractors saw but the fence leaves a lot to be desired. It's just plaino-plaino(See Photo #6). So, today I got fed up and decided to give it a facelift. I added a D.I.Y. double T-track piece to the top of it. Now I have a little extra height to the fence and I can add...

We designed the second floor of our home to be an open loft rather than individual enclosed rooms (that was B.C., before cats). The knee wall is 8" wide and turned out to be great place for cat napping, however, if they roll over the wrong way it is 12' to the ground. One of our cats did this...

The second tryout in building speakers. This time i ordered a speaker kit from the web. The front panel can be removed for acces when it might be needed. I bought a spray gun to paint the front mat black. For the smaller details on the front, i used a dremel. The enclosure is veneered with...

Its been a while since I've posted anything, so I figured I'd post about the fence I built. I built this to go on to my Delta Rockwell Shaper that I will be restoring. The fence is a Biesemeyer style and has a 2" tube on the back of the shaper that supports the wooden cam lock. Pull the lever up...

My latest craft show project, and I got Best of show. There wasen't a lot in the show. I didn't use a pattern, I just made it up as I went. I hand made 95% of everyhing here.

This is a somewhat unusual adaptation of a serving tray. It is basically a table top with a small border all around it (similar to a tray) intended to sit on the middle cushion of a sofa to serve as a stable surface for drinks or the remote controls. It is 18" X 18" and the border around all...

After reading the article and watching the video from Fine Woodworking #237 on the versatility of the table saw L-fence I was inspired to build one. Although the one in the magazine is easy to build and easy to use, I decided to "make it my own" so to speak but putting one together to eliminate...

Here is my hastened auxiliary table saw fence for my Bosch 4100. 8" high and 26" long. I picked up a weird looking cross cut sled that used 2 large T-Track plates as left & right wing from an auction long ago. Never used the sled as it was too sloppy and flexible, but kept the pieces. I used...

So I'm on craigslist forever looking for a table saw and low and behold I find this 70's model Craftsman saw and 6" Craftsman jointer for $185… after negotiations. I get it all home and find what many of you know, Craftsman table saw fences blow. I start looking for a replacement and find that...
