Seems like the 3/4" hardwood would want to expand and contract. The MDF would not. Seems like a battle that would only result in cracking and bowing.

I couple of passes with some fine sandpaper is what I do. Granted if the furniture is already finished, this would be a bit distructive. My first furniture pieve I built I did not do this and the...
I saw all of the vendors in about 10 minutes. If it was not for the demos, it would have been a complete waste of time. I was pretty bummed until I heard about the change of hands and the...
I like that idea as well. I hope to get building my cabinets for the shop-err garage this weekend. So simple, but the predrilling never crossed my mind. I was planning on snapping a chalk line,...
Carpal tunnel manifests itself in many ways. I suffered from it for awhile before finding a doctor that specialized in it and getting a better understanding of what was going on. From you...
Very nice. I remember that issue. I read that article a number of times and always wanted to make that box. Your is as good or better than the FWW one.
and it may just be me, but I have had the dreaded food poisoning a couple of times, but for some reason, after that, or possible after having a few too many adult beverages the night before, nothing...
I hope my "expensive" bench comes out half as good as your "cheap" bench.
Nice work!
Tivo all the way. I have friends that with all of them, from Tivo ( which I have ) to cable versions, dish versions and homebuilt versions. And if you want something that you just turn on and...

Congrats!
I made a cradle for some friends of mine for their first child. It was a very gratifying experience. I am looking foreward to making one for my daughter someday ( She is 7, so...
You could stain the whole piece, then route/drill out an area and inlay a unstained piece with your signature. Simular to how some folks inlay a coin or something.
He build beautiful furniture, some of the best I have seen. Now he comes out with one of the best quotes I have heard. :D I am going to print this out and carry it with me so when I get in the "I...
Seems like that show is getting smaller and smaller every year. I was a bit disappointed. The only thing that kept me there as long is it did was the talks that were being given, and the...
They role into town today and go through the weekend. I am sure it will be the same as any other year, but still excited to go.:D
I have thought about doing this after sitting through demos at woodworking shows and noticing how quiet and clean the display booths are.
There are always at least 2 camps in anything people enjoy.
Baseball – AL (DH) vs NL (No DH)
Software Development (My Day Job) – Java vs .NET
Beer Brewing ( another hobby ) All Grain vs Extract...
I just got back from spending 2 weeks in Alabama for work. The leaves were changing colors ( something I do not see here in AZ ) Very pretty country.
I love their tools and have a shop full of them, but I have yet to receive one that was not damaged in some way. They always bend over backwards to make good on it. I figure that is the price I...
Ditto what the other folks have said. Poplar and MDF. Make sure to wear a dust mask with the MDF :eek:
Looks like the wife already put it to good use!!!
The latest FWW tools and shops shows a different idean on a planer sled by having a grid of screws in the sled and you tighten/loosen the screws to support the cup/twist. Just don't plane too much...
