Help! Wanted For A Two Way Door
I am in the middle of renovating our toilet. It is a small 1mX2m (3’X6’) room separated from the main bathroom. Now this may seem funny but a very high proportion of deaths occur on the WC. The problem is how do you get someone out of a small enclosure when the door only opens inward. The door can be a big obstacle. I am sure many of you that are medicos would have experienced this problem.I want to redesign the door & jamb so that it will open inwards normally but outwards in...
17 Foot Dining Room Table #1: Latest Commission
Hi Everyone; I just got the go ahead to build a 17 foot dining room table. This going to be challenging, as it has three pedestal bases, which are heavily carved, have some japanning and gold leaf, in addition to veneering. The top will be veneered, include some marquetry, have a couple leaves, which will be stored in table structure.

Table Challenge #3: First stages
Martin has asked for blogs re: the big table challenge and I figured that since I am tracking the process of this “creation” I might as well follow the journey with some photos.

My Town Tour - Brezno, Slovakia
I’d like to invite you to a brief tour of Brezno – nice small town in the heart of Slovakia where I’m living now. Let’s see what Wikipedia has to say about Brezno’s history: “The place has been inhabited since prehistoric times, but the current town arose from an old Slovak settlement, next to which newly arrived German miners erected a typical square market in the early 13th century. The first written evidence of the town’s existence is dat...
Looking for Jock input.
In Martins last change to the Lumberjock pages he changed the “Jock” button to “Members”. Wait a minute this is not Lumbermembers it’s LumberJocks. I vote for putting the Jock name back on the button. I don’t know of any Jock or Jockette who has complained about that name. This message is all in good fun, but, I like to be known as Jock. I mean my home page is http://lumberjocks.com/jocks/Karson What do you think?

What is the most irritating aspect of working in your shop?
Some questions like Jim’s recent one about the need for plans and the ensuing discussion gave a lot of insight into how different folks approach the subject. With every workshop being unique to it’s owner, I thought it might be interesting to discuss and maybe get a new perspective on the problems we encounter in the shop on a daily basis, and see if there is any commonality. One thing I have found is, that while one person may be struggling with a certain problem in the shop,...
