Holy Cow!!!! I wonder how much booze was involved the first time someone decided to do that!
With those small quantities you shouldn't have anything to worry about. Smart idea on the butcher block oil. Another food safe option is Mineral Oil, It's only about 2 dollars at Wal-Mart.
Supply and demand my friend, supply and demand. I really like the design. What did you use as a water repelling finish?
That was my exact thought when I first saw it. I love the clean lines and the Shaker look. But throw a 42" plasm and a surround sound system on there and it might start to look like Granny's...
Bobby,
I thought it was mineral oil That's the finish I use for all my cutting boards and turned spoons and spatulas. Regular oil can go rancid but a quick rub down with mineral oil every 4-6...
Bobby,
Here's one Veteran (still serving after 24+ years) that says "you're welcome, it's my job" and also thank you for the respect. Too many that went before me never got the respect, honor, and...
Eric,
That is a great looking box with nice details. I especially like the dovetails. However, you may want to rethink the onions AND potatoes unless you plan to use them quickly. If they are stored...
The wire wheel I use, and I am sure most others are referring to, has brass "whiskers." The only way it will damage metal is if you run it in one spot for so long that the whiskers break off and you...
For really small items like pliers, I use naval jelly. For items that are a little larger or have hard to reach areas, I use electrolysis. For larger flat areas I have also used naval jelly or a...
Go get the spray gun and get to it! Lookin' good for now though.
Tom,
Great job and I'm sure you're Mom is pleased. What are the room dimesions and how did you come up with the floor plan?
Sold! Just tell me where to send the check.
Russell,
Great job with the sword and especially the curve on the shield.
My Son wanted a sword too, not so he could invade Narnia but so he could be Link from the Zelda video games. I made it...
Cody,
You did such a fantastic job on the legs and since you're thinking of some carving for imbellishment. How about ball and claw feet to set the coffee table apart from the end tables?
I've built many an adjustable shelf and have used metal track and holes. I much prefer the holes. You don't need a fancy jig either, I just use a 4" wide piece of peg board (the 1/4" hole variety)...
I really don't like zebrawood so when I first read your post title I actually said out loud "why?!!" But after seeing it, I think it looks nice together. Unlike you however, I think the 'heavy' left...
George,
That is an exceptional gift you gave Jon, phenomenal craftsmanship.
Don't you just hate thieving movers. I'm in the Army and have moved 14 times. With every move something is broken...
Donny,
That really is a nice looking shop. One question though, why so few windows? I can't believe security would be an issue in Chatsworth. If I could, I'd just about have a glass shop. I love...
Casey,
If you're not all fired up to get that plane "today" and don't mind waiting about 3-4 weeks, I'll send you a descent #5 for 50.00 and I'll even throw in a block plane. Notice I said descent,...
Dustin,
If I remember correctly, Sherman is only about an hour from the heart of Dallas. I am sure you would be able to find what ever wood you could dream of down there. Fortunately for you, you...
Casey,
Welcome to the Creek! Fellow Creeker from San Antonio, Michael Farout, makes some valid points both about the size planes you need and about the investment of time over money. To me, I like...
Joe,
A Yankee's fan in Savannah, say it ain't so. Don't the Sand Gnats still play in Savannah? If you can't paint it Braves Red and Blue, since you do live in Georgia, at least use the Gnats' colors.
Roy,
Is that Wimberly, TX just NW of San Marcos? No, I haven't tried there but that's a lot closer than Canton. Plus, the wife loves to go to the outlet malls in San Marcos. I'll drop her off...
Rick,
How are their prices, are they pretty reasonable? Canton is about 320 miles from where I live in Somerset, just south of San Antonio but if I'm ever in the area on a First Monday weekend,...
