Guys/Gals,
I was looking at a small Buffet/Hutch I built for my son when he was first born. I thought, maybe some others would like to build one as well. I created a quick Sketcup of the design and converted it into a PDF for your building pleasure. click here to download. Enjoy!
Here is a sample of the plan. I added the male for scale – Didn’t even try to rhyme that either :)

I’ve been trying to figure this out for a bit, and last weekend I cracked the case. Where do the logs and trees the tree trimmers cut down, and the stuff in the green waste recycling bins go? I tooled around Google Maps, searching for dumps and landfills, and found things like this that just didn’t seem to fit the bill. Finally I found this PDF file. It includes 20 pages, most with photos of everything that goes on, with figures on how much of each type of green waste is hauled in...

This video features a new crosscut sled built for my shop. Inspiration for this sled came form books in my library and countless Internet searches. This is a simple project for the shop that will increase safety, speed and accuracy of crosscuts on the table saw. Construction is simple with a MDF base, maple fences, Incra Miter Bars and T-Track. The plan file is available for download.
Hopefully this will inspire a sled for your shop!

This is the first in a series of screencasts and video clips demonstrating how to capture and upload digital content to Lumberjocks.

This Installing a Makers Mark Tutorial is available as a PDF download on my website
I get my labels from a very kind chap in England – his conta...
