I was just researching this topic myself and have been overwhelmed by the options for making dowels.
I believe this is the tool David was referring to.
I've seen several different jigs for...
Nice work. Looks like you have a happy client! ;-) Did you resaw a single board to make the back of the desk? I like the repeating book match pattern.
Very nice Ed! I love those lids. Where do you get your exotic woods?
Mike, Very nice. Incredible wood!
Jerry, look at the second picture. You can clearly see the vertical grain on the far side of the drawer on the left.
(Edited to add the critical phrase...
Thanks Glenn. I'll give it a try and see how it works out.
I believe Paul was asking for suggestions on how to go about making similar knife racks.
Paul, welcome! I'm sure you'll get plenty of great feedback. Hopefully a moderate will move this to the...
Sniff, sniff. My wife has a bad case of the sniffles and I thought it would be nice to make a tissue box cover for her. I've seen many great examples, but I was curious about attaching the top to the...
Please count me in. Thanks!

If I understand the five-cut method correctly, that .002 measure represents the error over the cumulative distance of all four sides of your test board, about 41" in this case. If I did my math...
Please count me in! Thanks!
That would be great! My cheap plastic "close is good enough" BORG guage thankfully gave up the ghost. I don't have a replacement, so please count me in! Thanks Darren and Glenn!
Very nice! I really like the relief cuts. How did you do the names? Looks a bit intricate.
#343? How did I miss this? Well, at least I made it in time, and I think my contributor status is all settled for a long time to come. Please count me in! Thanks Glenn & Missy!
John, would you excuse me if I divert the thread slightly off topic? I'm wondering what the relative pro's and con's are for using a dado blade to make tenons with the board flat on the table vs....
Yep. The intent is to make it easy to plane several boards to the same thickness, and to prevent you from making a board thinner than you had planned. Starting with the head set high enough to begin...
Brian's got it right. If you can't pull the board out after you lowered the planer head, you stuck the board in too far. Stop the board just short of the first roller. You can actually lower the...
Very nice. I too like the arching end grain.
I read that common sense was best.;)
Hmmm... Now that I think about it, the hot air heater has been on a lot lately, but in a few months we'll need to the cold air cooler and few cool ones in the cold drink cooler.:)
Shouldn't it be called a "cold water heater" during winter?
Thanks Bill! I've been looking for just such an evaluation. I keep hearing about folks using UHMW and wondered if it was worth it. What do you think about solid wood for inserts?
That looks great Jimmy! Are those feet cut from the molding as well? Looks like maybe it was cut, flipped, and flattened?
Wow. Very nice post (a little double entendre intended there!). I think I understand what you are saying about laying out the spirals, but did you cut a little V notch with a hand saw to get started?...
