Maybe there is a better and different way to do this base cabinet, but here goes. A spice'n'oils pullout is to be built, cabinet is frameless, and the front is a maple slab, 6-7/8" w x 30-1/8" h,...
Maybe the wrong place to ask, but anybody know one? Mahogany, oak, cypress? I am in Collier county.
The glass exteriors of highrise buildings are glued on with structural silicone. Use ordinary silicone adhesive, it does not take much, to glue the glass to your frame. You'll have no sagging if...
That's what I thought. I sold my Delta 14-inch bandsaw and my assortment of blades, one of which was a Woodslicer 1/2" 3 tpi that I used for resaw work. I was pretty certain it would track nicely...
I helped a friend get most of the way through a Morris chair build, and now it is time to bandsaw the curved back slats.
See the pic attached of the SU model. The top slat is 3-7/8" H and the...
2-1/2" and 4" cherry, a circular arc of unknown radius, but with a chord length of 20" and a center rise of 1-1/4", so about 24" radius.
We've no other blade for this older 12" Jet saw other than...
I have two I built and have a tip for the cushions. Find a Stickley Audi store and go there, and if you can take your upholsterer with you, all the better. The shapes of the Stickley cushions are...
If one of your tools is a Sig P229, just be sure it is locked in a case, unloaded, and that you have declared it at baggage check-in.
They won't care so much about your Two Cherries chisels, but...
Joints will all be done using dominos. The curvature is so minimal that sandpaper and blocks might be best.
Or maybe a final-cut rasp.
If you like sharpening, just score a set of the Aldi chisels. They are all you need to make whatever you want, and you'll enjoy getting and keeping them razor sharp.
Actually trimming. A version of a Morris chair will be built, one for which the side pickets, each 5/8" x 2-1/4 x about 9", butt to top and bottom rails with curved surfaces. See the image.

Check out this one I drew up. Saw it on a tiny house website.

Pretty sure I put the model up on the 3D Warehouse. Let me check.

No problem if you do it from here. https://www.sketchup.com/
A Krenov leg, as James made one, begins as a square blank maybe 2x2 inches, and is marked on two sides with a gentle inside curve, then bandsawn. Planes, spokeshaves, and scrapers finish it.
I'm...
Yes! Please give me a lead.
The money I got for the stationary tools already sold is burning a hole in my pocket, and I was thinking, I know this is heresy here in the 19th century, of the Festool MFT/3 table with one of their...
That is, if you use any at all. I am wrestling with having to go small, into the SW Florida garage I'll have when we move there. I have discussed in other threads here the situation with humidity...
Naples is where we are going, about 10 miles in from the beach. The house is a tract-built thing, with no insulation above the ceiling, but there is ready access there for a contractor (or me) to go...
We are moving early next spring to southwest Florida not far from Marco Island, and I am afraid I will have to give up woodworking. There is no space for my hobby inside the air-conditioned space of...
We're moving to SW Florida, into a subtropical climate. We'll winter there as six-months residents, and go north for the rest of the year. The property won't permit a shop outside the house, and...
Just bought the last set at the local store (far NW Chicagoland) and hope for the best. $7.53 for package of four.
The problem is with the high retail cost of A&Btr WRC, which is what I want to use. To add to this, my hallucination of a design uses 5/4 material for leg and brace parts. A pic of my design is...
Thinking about building a pair of these in a design I did from a photo.
The wood required includes 5/4 and 4/4 stock, and I'm thinking of either western red cedar or Alaskan yellow cedar.
The...
This term, "high end," when applied to self-storage facilities, is used to describe ones that have amenities like increased security, conference rooms, vending machines, restrooms, and more. HVAC,...
