Nope try again...
The Woodshed
Just what the title says. At one time, one was sent to the Woodshed to fetch a switch.
Because they broke some sort of rule…
Because they "misbehaved"
Because they didn't fit in with a certain group…..
So…this will be all about that sort of thing….been blocked? Had a thread you were on shut down, and NOT because of anything YOU did?
There are no rules here, other than what Cricket lays out.
Except…..
Those who dwell in "Ivory Towers" who tend to look down their nose at others..are NOT welcome here.
Now, just imagine, for a moment…IF you were a part of this crew…
![Plant Tree Adaptation Art Motor vehicle]()
And you all sat down for the Lunch part of the day…..what would you be talking about?
That is what this will be like. Got a problem doing a task? Ask away, maybe someone else can solve it, for you.
Not looking for those "My way, or the highway" types….they get boring after a while.
Just a Friendly bunch of ordinary people, who happen to like working with their hands, be it hand tools, or power tools.
Maybe not so much WHAT tool to buy, and more about HOW to use a given tool….anything from a "pen knife" to a Jack hammer….all are welcome. Come on in, sit down in a comfy chair, took your shoes off…and just relax..

Yeah. We had some of the pieces ripped with a chainsaw halfway through the middle of some knots and down to the pith of the stump to make splitting that much easier.
I'll be able to set aside some of the pieces for milling by hand (of course - the hard way) to make some thin stock for some small boxes. I've also got a new maul kit to replace my current maul. Mauls are like sandpaper - that is, they're expendables.
Since I do things for my experience (and therapy), time and effort aren't major concerns for me.
The time between the end of one Project, and the start of the next Project.....usually means a lot of clean up...
![]()
Have a lot of stuff to put away....2 Grinders?
![]()
This uses a cloth wheel and that green crayon....
![]()
Called the Unicorn....I use it to refresh all them chisels...and clean up dirty spots. I think just about every tool here got some use
![]()
All 3 spokeshaves got used, needed cleaned up, too..
![]()
Same with the marking gauges...need to put all of these away, for now
![]()
Floor was looking a bit..."scruffy-looking"....big yellow box is my dust collector...
Floor has been swept....been sorting through the piles of left-overs and throwing out all the trash...
Once things are put away, and the bench is cleared off....I can start sorting through the Left-overs...
Stay tuned..

What I have found so far, as to usable scraps...
![]()
Resaws...15 of them...average thickness = 1/4"
![]()
I don't think the longer one is worth much...other area will get removed...along with the waney,barky edge...
![]()
These are from the seat slats...bottom 2 might not be usable..
![]()
I guess I might find a few good parts in there? Still have a few from the 3 Box Project..

Just in case. letting the Single Brain Cell Sketch Up work out some sort of plan....
Stay tuned...
