Thanks everyone.
I just ordered some from Rocker.

I'm building a small cabinet that will have doors with glass panels.
Does anyone know where I can purchase the rubbertype bead that will hold the glass in place. I believe it comes in a roll but I'm...

I made three of these for Christmas gifts.
I got the plans from December Popular Woodworking. (Glen Huey)
I'm pretty happy with the outcome except the finish, which I always struggle with. (Dark...

Reed - Inside the doors are two side by side small drawers and a shelf on top of them.
Mike - I would take a pic of the inside except it's already been delivered.
John - The side panels and the...

Have not posted in a while.
This is the last project of the year.
Yard work will take over now.

I should have had a shot of the doors open.
There are a couple half drawers and a shelf.
Made it...

Carroll - it really does work. Seems to me there should be a better way, but if duck tape is what makes it work - then duck tape it will be.
In fact it only took about 3 or 4 minutes to get the job...

I purchased a used Performax 37" duel drum sander. When it works I love it.
Replacing the paper is without question the hardest thing I do in the shop.
Never once have I gotten it right. It is...

Thanks everyone, Im going to go for it.

How wise is it to build a lumber rack on a cinder block wall?
I will not be storing a great amount of lumber, but there will be a fair amount of weight. I will be using metal beams that extend from...

I don't post alot, I guess because I don't know alot. However I'm here most every day. (By the way, I don't talk much either.) Some of the comments about how Jim spends his money are just...

Thanks everyone for your input.
Guess I have some homework to do.

I currently am using a Delta 1.5HP dust collection system. Not long ago in a trade I managed to get a 37'' duel drum sander. I love it but my Delta (which is only about 10 ft from my sander) is just...

Just got the latest issue of Popular Woodworking with 2 full pages by Jim Shaver on "Pens for Peacekeepers".
Really an inspiring piece, and I live south of the boarder.
Keep up the good work Jim.

I agree with John. Send that pic to FWW. Beautiful!

I have been out of the shop for around 9 months because of a move.
That includes the shop. Started these about that long ago.
They are taken very loosely from a picture of a Green & Green lantern I...

I have had a shop for about three years now. Outside of one 2 day course I have just read books and picked up much here on the creek. While I have made a number of drawers I feel certain I have lots...

I'm finishing up a couple of what I call wall lanterns.
The wood is cherry.
I've put on two coats of Watco Teak Oil and love the color.
However I would really like to have a little more of a...

Thanks everyone for all the insight. My basement does have a ramp and garage door at the end. Getting things in and out, big and small is no problem at all. We just moved in 2 days ago and the movers...

My wife and I just moved into her old homeplace. At the place we just left I had a 24 x 24 shop in the barn. The new place has a full basement that has even more space. The sealings are a little...

I'm installing new hand rails on my stairs which I purchased at the local borg.
(The type you just attach to the wall.)
After sanding I put on one coat of shellac as a sealer, then a red mahogany...

Thanks for the replies. I will leave it as is.

Almost all the wood is 1 in thick.

I have a fair amount of walnut I have had stickered for about 3 years in a hay loft. I am moving and had someone else more it to the new location and they did not sticker it at all. It is however...
