  1. Pantograph test

    The aim of this test was to determine horizontal and vertical straight lines, limits and ratios. Since I have few holes very close to each other, all ratios are simmilar so I put set up with 1,8 :1 vertical and 1,9 : 1 horizontal ratio - on sample 10×60 cm - turned out some 5,5×30 cm. Regarding...

  2. First project

    I'm setting up my very first shop and noticed that I needed a few basic tools, one of which was a mallet, one tool I felt I could handle with the lack of any major power tools. So I grabbed a piece of 4/4 hard maple and began. It is not beautiful, but it's the first, and that has to be worth...

  3. Walnut Beach

    This is pen # 3 from my "Beginners Pen Making Kit" I purchased from Busy Bee Tools. My co-worker gave me a couple of pieces of Walnut and American Beech, so in return I will be giving him this pen made from that wood. This is a Standard pen (the kit contains 5 of them), and I attempted some...

  7. Built in Bookcases

    This is a set of built in bookcases that I did for my daughter. On the right side there is a knee hole so she can use her laptop and have a writing surface. The face frames and doors were made with poplar and the case is MDF. There are no backs on these. She wanted her wall color to show...

  8. 3D Diamond Panels - Never again!!!

    My dad had a customer that found a picture in a magazine that they fell in LOVE with. After searching high and low and talking to many custom woodworkers, nobody would even attempt to complete this project. Well, me being either super brave or super insane, took on a project that not even...

    I made a little video over the weekend that created just a ton of controversy on YouTube and Reddit. I get a lot of comments on my videos about why I chose to use glue instead of screws. My arcade cabinet project is littered with people suggesting I should have "also screwed the cabinet...

    Ok so I found this old table saw in our cabin and thought I would use it as a dedicated DADO machine when we get back home. The problem is I cant find anything at all on the web about this saw. I'm pretty sure it's at least 30 years old, and it seems in good shape. I would probably like to...

    a thin, fig dish test This is from nearly a month ago. I'm behind on my adventures. Chucking something properly in a lathe takes a little bit of thought and prep work.
