Curved Doors; Raised panel & Six light glass #6: Panel glue ups

3 hours ago by Les Hastings | 3 comments »

The panels for these doors will be four boards wide. They were milled at the same time the styles were using the same radius jigs. the panels will end up 3/4 thick, the parts were milled a strong 1/32 over that thickness to allow for sanding. A tray was used once again to cut the angle on all the parts on the table saw. After the angle is cut on both both sides the parts are biscuted a to help in the gluing process. Make sure you keep them back far enough so they do not come out in the pro...

IWF Atlanta, Great show, spent to much money!

1 day ago by Les Hastings | 11 comments »

Well the IWF show was as great as always. Had a lot of fun there, meet some cool people. Talked a lot of shop with many. Ran into the WOOD WISPERER and his better half, any body know that guy? Walked about thirty miles I think (felt like it anyway). Let’s see I picked up some shaper knives, a few insert router bits. Got another Dynabrade orbital sander. Ordered Five 8’ and twelve 5’s of the new bessy k body clamps (not availible till November). Ordered a Osillating Belt ...

1 day ago by drgoodharp | 1 comment »

Although the unvarnished truth is that design and execution make the piece, it is often the varnish that sells it. As with many internet arguments, extreme positions are usually the result of individual bias without considering the personal preferences of others. I prefer to think in terms of tradeoffs. When it comes to f...

Commisions #11: pull out trash box #6 done (sort of)

4 days ago by teenagewoodworker | 8 comments »

Setting Up Shop #1: Somewhere in the middle: Buck Bros. Block Plane

4 days ago by exold | 0 comments »

I have my own blog, and before I discovered the excellence that is Lumberjocks, I started posting my woodworking adventures there. Fortunately, I only got one post up there before I signed up at LJ. However, I’m going to leave that post where it is, so I figured I’d drop a pointer to it here: Jumping Right In. Maybe not the ideal solution, but c’est la vie .
