This is a jewelry box I made for my daughter as a graduation gift. The wood is walnut and bloodwood. It measures 14 inches wide, 9 inches deep and 6 inches tall. I found the project in the October 2005 (issue 165) of Wood Magazine. The finish is several coats of lacquer.

The Krenov-style sawhorses, in my opinion, are the best shop horses; easy to make, strong and versatile. I've made two pairs out of fir, economical material that won't cost you an arm and a leg. I came across this bench mount roller at Princessauto (still on sale for $8Cdn something) and built...

MsDebbie in her newsletter at *** talked about Chocolate Covered Nuts as a theme, and as I read it I thought, I just created one of those but I sent it off to my son for a Christmas Present. So I just had to make another one so I had pictures, because if you don't have pictures, it...

I've had this small chunk of maple laying around under the lathe for a couple months and last night I decided to chuch it up and see what "turned" out while listening to Monday night football on the shop radio. Turned out to have some pretty grain under the rought lumber. Finished with tung...

I did not take any pictures during the process, silly me. The base or bottom is a 1 inch thick plywood with a veneer on the side facing up. Free turning wheels with locking mechanism are mounted to the four corners. Most of the slats are beech with some being maple when I ran short. I used a...

This is my thickness planer cabinet/stand. This is based on a design I saw in ShopNotes but don't recall the specific issue. My use of the thickness planer is drastically improved with this cabinet. It is a very stable base at a good height. And the fold down outfeed support is excellent. Lastly...

Made this box for a customer out of stinkwood and used black flokking for the inside

June 17, 2014 You may not have a DW-735 Thickness Planer yet but you may so this post may be something to keep in the back of your mind. Eventually you will break the 4 inch dust port supplied with this great tool. When this happens, what are you to do? I'm very frugal. A new replacement...

June 17, 2014 I've had my DeWalt 735 Thickness Planer since Christmas of 2004 and absolutely love it. However, dust collection has been a challenge. Ever since I've had it I've used a Dust-Right 4 inch port adaptor on the 4 inch dust chute supplied with the machine and attached a Dust-Right...

"The box of secrets-5" hand carved wooden box. Box material: linden (basswood). Finish: Danish oil. Technique: chip carving. Thank you for looking!

A little coffee made from salvaged antique heart pine, oak, a 150 year old eastern red cedar and red oak destined for the dump. No way I say, you just let me haul that away!

I got this Stanley Bailey #6 hand plane from my Wife's father, less than 2 months ago. It belongs to my Wife's grandfhater, he past away about 50 years ago, and it was abandoned for that many years, my father in-law found it and brought his home about 30 years ago, but he is not a woodworker so...

This is my first attempt at a band-sawn box. Unfortunately, I forgot to take a picture of the lid, which is what actually dictated the exterior shape and, ultimately, gave the box its name! Since I gave it to my best friend, I can get a picture and add it to the existing gallery later. The...
