Not that this adds to your original distilling question, but I've been using the Klean Strip green DNA for shellac, which according to their MSDS, has < 5% methanol, compared to the 40% or so in the...
No woodworking projects currently underway here. This weekend's activities were mostly all motorcycle related.
Saturday my local HOG chapter had a ride - the first one for the year. The...

I've built several pieces out of, or in part of curly cherry. I've dyed all of them. Jim's correct in stating that you wont get as strong of a contrast as with a dye on curly maple, but it will...
It's been a few years since I set mine up, but I seem to recall there's setscrews in the granite that can be adjusted in or out to set the miter slot width as the slot is created by the marriage of...
Nice job! I envy your shop's organization!
Thanks guys!
I'm in! Thanks!
Wow! That's an amazing piece! Someday I hope to have the skills necessary to attempt such a piece!
That's a great looking piece, Jeff! I'm sure your wife loves it!
Mike, that's a great looking project you have going there! Well done!

Your project's looking great Mike! Isn't working with softwoods a nice break? I just love how long everything stays sharp!
Very nice! I love the touches of the personalized old-school crate filled with plane shavings too!
Those look like some nicely made chairs! I like the setting of them too!
Well done! It's even more impressive that you took it start to finish in a weekend!
Wow that looks great! I can only wish my dovetails looked that perfect!
So this piece was a gift for my parent's home. We got it all moved across town today and set up in their home.

It looks a lot better in their living room than it did in my garage!
John - thanks for the kind words. I make the mortises longer than the tennon by about 1/4" and I only glue the center bit of each tenon into the mortise. Certainly you can drawboard the tenon into...
So after all the drawers are built, I used a laser level to aide in the drawer pull locations.

Last detail, I make the backboards. I plane a little rabbet to make the...
On to the drawers. They're pretty basic and luckily only two have any carving on them!
Nothing too exciting here, just basic drawers with a ton of dovetailing!

Things are coming along now. On to the spiral finials and the little drop finials!

continuing with the moldings - after sawing them free and sanding them smooth, I dry fit them on the scroll board and mark the miters. After cutting them to size, I use a flush trim bit to make the...
Ok, on with the build pictures!
So after the case is all dovetailed, I cut the dados for the drawer runners. I use the table saw for the dado then hand cut the dovetail socket within. I also...
