New Jock

12 minutes ago by rtdersch | 0 comments »

I just joined Lumberjocks a few days ago and I’d like to extend a “thank you” to the many people who’ve already welcomed me here. This will be my maiden journey into wood working and it’s comforting to know that there is a mature, respectful and experienced community to collaborate with. Thank you all for making me feel welcome. Now, off to buy some tools!

Front Porch Rockers - Introduction

83 minutes ago by bhack | 2 comments »

I thought that I would write this blog as encouragement for those of us who are not MASTERS of the craft. I started woodworking in the winter of 2003. My only background in the craft was watching New Yankee Workshop since its inception and dreaming of being able to DO THAT SOMEDAY. Well the SOMEDAY finally came when I was offered a very nice retirement package form Verizon Telephone for whom I had toiled for Thirty-three (33) years in Southern California. We, my darling wife of 37 years...

My tool tote has been accepted for judging

12 hours ago by WoodJack49 | 7 comments »

I just received the post card today telling me that my tool tote has been accepted for judging in the Design in Wood exhibition at the San Diego County Fair this year. I missed getting it entered last year because it was already entered in the Orange County Fair’s contest and the two contests overlap each other. I have to deliver the tote on June 5th to the fairgrounds. My tote is not a big project but, for me, it is an honor just to have it accepted for judging along with the grea...

Are you tired of paying high Gas prices?" What this has to do with woodworker's"

12 hours ago by gene | 9 comments »

Hi! Everyone The following is a copy of a letter I mailed and e-mailed to president Bush and to senator McCain on May 6th, 2008 ( less a few lines that I deleted ) I did not want to step on any of my friends feelings here at Lumberjocks. I will be sending another copy in a day or so because, as of today, I have not received any response at all. The people who prescreen, probably think that I am a nut case and won’t send them through. You may think I am also. I hope not. If you do not think t...

Hanging Tool Cabinet #1: Case & Interior - Unfinished

14 hours ago by Jarrod_Murphree | 9 comments »

Here is my wall hung tool cabinet; I built it from plans in Popular Woodworking (December 2004, Chris Schwarz, Arts & Crafts Tool Cabinet) with several changes to suit my needs. The overall dimensions of the case are 24”W x 32”H x 12 3/4”D. The top is glued to two stretchers that run the width of the case. If you are familiar with the original you will know that Schwarz built it of Cherry & Spalted Maple, and it had two doors and decorative Arts & Crafts h...

Reguarding, Selling the shop

14 hours ago by gene | 12 comments »

This is to all who have read and especially those of you that responded to the previous blog I wrote showing your concerns for my health. But, most of all, it is for those who have been praying for me. May God bless you and your family’s as much as he has blessed me, throughout my life and least of all, Because of you, my friends?! (Now!) I am a diabetic and have been disabled for seven years with severe nerve damage to my feet and legs. About six months ago, my sugar went out of control, r...

Now I have a basic case to work from now. Now I have to build the rest of the runners and add a plywood back. But I aint sure what size plywood to use for the back.

Ideas from my shop #3: Cherry End Tables: How To

17 hours ago by David | 4 comments »

May 14, 2008 ~ Happy Birthday Samantha This is one of my favorite days of the year; the day my grandaughter Samantha was born. It seems like yesterday but it was really 10 years ago. Of course the other favorite day is Emily’s B-day and she is 3. So I digress but thought today would be a good time to finally put together this sequence on these Cherry End Tables. Our Daughter wanted me to make her two end tables out of Cherry and liked the design of two that I made from oak at ...
