I always tell people to try to find what they want at a store first. If they can't find what they want them come back to me and I will make it for them. It will be more expensive than they planned...

I didn't expect so many replies! Thanks! This is for indoor use so its not the weather I am worried about. The table is made from reclaimed teak and I am not sure where he got it from but it had no...

I have a customer that wants six dining chairs made to match his teak dining table. However, he does not want the chairs to be made of teak because of the cost.

Can anyone recommend a good...

I do all of my circle cuts on the Bandsaw, even the big circles. I made a jig that will cut up to 4 foot radius circles quickly and easily. I have another jig that I made for the smaller circles...

The only caution I would give is if the top of the panel is going to be curved so that you won't be able to use your router fence to guide the top of the panel then make sure your wood it thick...

I didn't read through the other posts above so this might have been suggested already. If you have access to a lathe then have the kids make light house lights using alternation woods. I built one in...

I'd go for the left tilt Delta Unisaw. I have owned a right tilt Unisaw for sixteen years now and have never had a single problem with it. But if I were to do it again I would get a left tilt saw. ...

I have the CMT #835.502.11 set, which I paid $55 for. I have no complaints with it. It cuts well and has seven bearings. I got it at Woodcraft.

I would agree though, with the comments about...

I have to agree with Jim Becker. My first table saw was a Delta Unisaw that I purchased sixteen years ago. It is still my only tablesaw and, the way it continues to work, it may remain my only saw. I...

I sprayed on three coats of General Finishes High Performance Water based Poly and sanded with 320 grit between the first two coats.

Thanks for the kind remarks everyone and have a merry...

Some friends of ours asked me to build a hope chest for their daughter who was turning 16. She wanted the lid to be curved like a pirate chest, wanted it made of maple and lined with cedar, and...

I haven't posted much lately because business has been going very well. But I decided to take some time off over Christmas so I have some time to catch up on some Sawmill Creek reading and make this...

COOPERING!! That is what I needed to hear! I knew there had to be a name for this procedure but did not know what it was. I went to Finewoodworking.com and found some great articles on various ways...

Ya, I've been using waxpaper with the clamps.

I have the Benchdog and it is perfect for my PC 7518. I HIGHLY recommend it but make sure it will work for your router before buying.

Hi guys. I have a quandry. I am building a hope chest for a neighbor girl for her sixteenth birthday. The top is going to be curved (see picture below of side view of lid). I am building the top out...

I have had mine for about six months and love it! It does everything that it is advertised to do.

If I may make a suggestion for an improvement though, I would like to see a wheel added to the...

I might need to clarify a bit. My boards are straight along the edge but the long boards are not always flat. That is where the problem is. Any sugestions?

I am careful not to push down hard and just guide along the fence. That is why short boards are easy. I can push down on the front and just let the rest of the board be cut wherever it makes contact...

I have owned a jointer and planer for about a year and a half now and have become very proficient with making very straight boards that are four feet or shorter. No problems there.

Where I am...

Great work! Very fine craftsmanship! Chairs are one thing I have not built yet but need to give a try. You're work is inspiring!

I just replaced my 30" Excalibur fence with a 50"Biesemeyer system last week. I got the fence, rails, and legs for $460 and built the table from a scrap piece of Melamine particle board and some ash....

I would also like to see some details on how this was made as I may go this route in the future.

Thanks for your replies! I already have the wood for the sides so I am going to go ahead with the plywood for the bottoms of the soffits. Headroom is the main issue here. I just don't have much and...

I have finally made the move to my new home in Utah. I have one problem though. I have eight foot ceilings and ductwork running down the middle of the shop area The ductwork is nearly four feet wide...
