Debbie challenged me to a Video duel. Pardon my stuttering, & stammering, because I’m just a Lumberjock, & I don’t care. Notice the Lumberjocks T-shirt, my PC camera shows a mirror image, & I can’t figure it out. Don’t forget to watch MsDebbieP’s happy dance. Also Martin’s Happy Dance.
Since I bought my first computer about 4 years ago, I’ve digitized all of my pictures. I had all of my slides put on disks, & made a jig, so I could take pictures of all of my old negatives. It took me quite awhile. Now I’d like to show some pictures of my Grandparents farm where I used to spend my summers. As soon as school was let out, I’d jump on a Greyhound bus for a 200 mile trip to Northwestern Minnesota. It was during World War II, in the early 1940...
The last couple of days, I’ve been working on the tabletop. I mortised out the breadboards, & cut the tenons. I kind of fell for the cloud lift theme, so I incorporated into the top. You might want to call this a sideways cloud lift. I decided to try something from the latest issue of Fine Woodworking, They call it draw bored pegging on the breadboards. This is something I've never tried before, so we'll see what happens. Check out my latest Video. ></td></tr><...
I’ve been really busy trying to learn SketchUp. My Son needs a new front porch on his home. I decided this would be a good way to learn SketchUp. His old concrete steps have been gradually leaning, & it makes the whole house seem crooked. He said if he sits on a step, he feels like he’s going to fall off. This was quite an experience for me, because I’ve used a T-square, & triangles for so long. This project took me an awfully long time, but I learn...
We invite our Lumberjock Family to share this “Special Day” with us. Lumberjocks Forever, Dick & Barb PS: Check out the Anniversary Carving. Notice: The new Forest Green Lumberjock T’s
I completed my draw bored pegging of the breadboards yesterday, with success. Then I applied one coat of wipe on Poly . I’m very pleased with the outcome.
YUP!! Today is the big day, Any Suggestions ?
These are from another view point. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~You may notice a lot of dead Birch trees. I guess a bug called “Saw Fly” is responsible.I leave them for the Flickers.
I decided not to hold my cards to close to my chest, as Scott mentioned. I decided to show what I’ve been doing the last couple of days. I couldn’t resist doing some chiseling on this table. That’s the reason I did a downward cloud lift on the aprons, in order to fit in a carving. One down, three to go. This is about 4 hours of chiseling. A little more touching up, & it’ll ready for the finish.
Today I cut all the tenons, & dry fit the parts. “A lot more work to look forward to.” Now you can see the shape.
