Hi Everyone;
It’s been a while since I’ve posted anything.
The table project has been side tracked for a while, due to some health issues but I’m back at it now.
The three pedestal bases are finished.
I’ve also started posting the construction details on one of my wood working websites:

Hi everybody…....My husband finally got the floor finished…...he did a fantastic job I might add and now…..I finally sucked up enough courage to get started on my kitchen cabinets. The kitchen and dining area is 14 ft wide x 24.6 ft long. My cabinets are made of plywood and my face frames and doors are made out of hickory. I have never worked on a set of kitchen cabinets before, so I am pretty much learning this on my own. I have a friend on here that gives me advice whe...

In the end, I feel very strong that we won’t, nor should be; remembered or judged for our words, but rather the sum total of our actions and deeds.
To this truth as I know and understand it, I will let the pictures of “This Old Crack House.” speak for them selves.
Every piece of furniture was designed and built with my own hands, along with all the decorating, color choices, and room layouts, which are my own creations.
You then can be the judge and come to your own conclusions.
E...

Well I think I met my match! My current wife, ( I”m considering trading her in), always says I never build anything for her, or as she would say US. (yeah right).
A while back our projection screen television committed suicide. So we bought a flat screen model that hangs on the wall.
Of course all the “stuff” that used to sit on top of the previous T.V. cabinet was demoted to sitting on the floor.
Thus, the need for a cabinet to sit below the new unit, and house the...

Hi everyone;
Since a lot of LJ’s have been following the progress of my ezee-feed project, I wanted to share part of my day today. I hope no-one is put off by my posting this or thinks I’m bragging as I’m really in no position to brag, but it was a very special day for me. (I don’t have a lot of those since embarking on this project).
I’ve had a number of orders waiting for the first batch of Ezee-Feed units to come out of the factory, since I stopped makin...

Yes. Finally some light at the end of the tunnel, reverse thinking, and this project seems a bit more doable, and even not much trouble at all.
Originally I tried to get the (2.5” hardened) nails out by using a cat’s paw and a hammer to pull each nail out of the 2.5 laminated hard-rock maple strips. I figured once I get all the nails out of the top strip, it’ll just free it from the lamination, and be nails free… one strip at a time, until I have them all cleared ou...

Well I’d been talking to Dusty it seems like for a week. He stated that he had this idea for a memorial to Mark, in a way that only a LumberJock could. Dusty’s witings start here
One of the best Memorials would be to insure that we do our part in keeping LumberJocks still in business, and it that way we could keep the memory of Mark alive through his participation.
Dusty told me that he had communicated with Douglas Border about his idea, and they thought that they’d get me involv...
