Tools I make (sharpening stones, planes and irons) #1: Making a honing stone

"Echo-Friendly Habitat//Furniture Building" --by RusticWoodArt

208 days ago by frank | 3 comments »

Echo-Friendly Habitat//Furniture Building ....and so as we continue to search and re-fine a name for a website, let us not get caught in a ‘wooden’ box of our own making and in so doing, fail to gather and draw from the world around us, all that is fast becoming ‘echo friendly’. One of the things to consider today is; are we as woodworkers fast becoming a relic of the past, due in time to go the ways of other dinosaurs that could not merge with what is happening...

203 days ago by dennis mitchell | 24 comments »

It’s been a while since my last blog. I’ve just been building kitchens and the contractor has been finishing and installing. This one I got to do the finish and install work on. So I got Pictures!I figure since the construction industry is busting it is just the right time for a business man like me to jump in with both feet. I really didn’t like the boom so hopefully people will be a little better to work with in a bust cycle. I was doing great before the boom, then everyon...
