Thanks for the video.
You seem to have been using Carving Disc a lot for your work. I just need your opinion (through you vast experience with this tool) - between King ArthurTools Lancelot (chainsaw blade disc) and Arbortech Industrial Woodcarver with 3-carbide teeth Disc, which is much safer/easier to use for newbie like me? I have placed an order to purchase King Arthur Lancelot, but still have 10days to confirm (on the shipping cost quotation).
Thanking you in advance for your advice/recommendation.

2) Arbortech Industrial Pro Kit

Not for the timid...Maloof inspired Music Stand

A while back, I posted some pictures of the most difficult project I had ever attempted…the Maloof Music Stand. Much to my surprise, quite a few woodworkers have expressed an interest in tackling this thing, so I have finally put together templates and a detailed instruction booklet for anyone who thinks they're up for the challenge.

Don't say I didn't warn you. ;)

You can have a look Here

Enjoy!

Something for all of you iPad enthusiasts...

Hi everyone.

My extremely talented wife just wrote a groundbreaking new APP for the iPad. It's the first of it's kind for woodworkers, enabling you to play with a 3D rocking chair (and all of the separate parts) right on the iPad. You can order parts, take notes and do lots of other cool stuff including watching come never-before-seen videos right within the APP.

I admit it, I am a gadget guy, and this is so much fun to play with it makes it hard to go back to making sawdust.

Nah, not really…but it sure is cool.

You can check it out here: iRocker

Have fun!

Hi Scott,

I don't have an iPad or iPhone or iAnything… BUT, I can tell that THAT must look really SUPER!

Can you rotate it etc. to look at from all angles?

Thank you…

My first woodworking-docu-history-howto-video-thingy...

I know, weird title, but I am busy celebrating the release of my latest video, "The Making of the Rocker Cradle."

Sure had a lot of fun with this one. As they say, "what I really want to do is direct…"

Okay, maybe not. Hope you enjoy the clip. Cheers!

Maloof Inspired Sculpted Table project - Pixar meets woodworking

This is a small sample of my new woodworking project video, "Building a Maloof Inspired Sculpted Table." Templates and video available for pre-order at finewoodworker.com.



It is a totally new, and never before seen, type of video project (and pretty darn cool, if I do say so myself). Think Pixar meets woodworking. Completely 3D and presented with amazing details and animation that leave no room for error in your project. Everyone who has built one of my chairs (or any chair) will definitely be interested in this companion piece, sure to please beginner to advanced woodworkers. Don't all chairs need a side table for all of those remotes? (The other day I counted 9 on my table).

Enjoy the video!

Triplets!

Hello fellow sawdust-heads.

Three lovely ladies ready to ship out in a few days. Thought you might like to see them. There are more pictures on my Facebook page.

The two outer rockers are walnut, and the middle one is Tiger Maple (the quilting is awesome, even though the picture doesn't show it).

Cheers!

Just a shoe bench

Hi everyone,

Here's a Maloof Inspired Shoe Bench built a while back, but the templates and instruction booklet are now available. This one was built from Bubinga, which made it a bit heavier than normal, but will probably outlast my grandkids.

Quite a fun little project, especially my favorite part….the handles.

Enjoy!

You can see that it is a very useful little trick. I hope you find this clip entertaining (it sure was fun making it).
