Wood Score!

252 days ago by Dave Rutan | 4 comments »

Along my route this morning I spotted a chest of drawers on the curb. One drawer was out and on the top of the dresser so I could see it was solid wood without the wide dado so often found on modern furniture. So on my return trip I stopped and hefted the eight drawer dresser in my Impreza wagon. At home I knocked it apart and then cleaned up most of the wood, removing nails and staples. This is the yield of useful wood I got: From the drawer sides (above) I get 16 1/2 in. thick...

Wood Explorer

291 days ago by Karson | 5 comments »

I purchased this product around 10 years ago. But, over the years I lost the CD and also lost my registration id. (Multiple switching of computers) But,. somewhere they still had my email address, and I still have that address as an active ID. (This is called e-mail forwarding, you just change the forwarding address to your current one – works great) But I received this this email from them today. I’m not selling anything nore am I making any money off this. But it is a g...

Urban Logging #2: Turning blanks for the local Senior Citizens Center

322 days ago by HalDougherty | 11 comments »

This weekend, I spent my time bringing home some walnut and maple logs. The limbs don’t make good lumber, even if they are big enough to make a saw log. Limbs are reaction wood and when you remove the weight from them they move, sometimes a lot! Saw a horizontal limb into lumber and you can make some nice pretzels and you won’t have to do anything… Just saw ‘em and watch ‘em curl. Same deal with leaner logs. I use some of the limbs to make bowls, rolling pins and...

Sculpted Juniper picnic table #3: Shaping and sanding--surprise bullet found

323 days ago by junipercanyon | 5 comments »

As I was working on the sculpted top, I found a bullet that I somehow milled in half with my chainsaw. I’m sure that was pretty hard on my chain at the time as the jacket of the bullet is still intact!! Busy week so I didn’t get as much done on this project as I would have liked, but it is coming along nice. All 4 boards for the top are almost done shaping, and all the material for the frames has been rough cut to size. I spent an evening building 8) 4’...

Urban Logging #1: Wood gloat! 3 trees! One big spalded maple & 2 big black walnut trees

324 days ago by HalDougherty | 13 comments »

I’ve spent the entire day cutting trees into logs and bringing them home… They aren’t lumber yet and all of them are not here yet, but it won’t be long now. Here’s a couple of shots of the maple. It’s a little over 30’ long and the big end is 36”. It’s been down a year and it’s spalded, but not punky. I cut into it to see what it’s going to look like after it’s sawn. It’s also tiger striped through and through. I...

I've got wood!

325 days ago by BritBoxmaker | 26 comments »

Just for those of you in the States who think your wood is expensive. The little beauty in the foreground is African Ebony. 32cm x 5.5cm sq’. It cost me £25GBP, thats about $40US.Bringing up the rear is a piece of Pau Amarello at a relatively modest £3, $4.80. Ebony is very difficult to get over here in anything bigger than turning blank sizes. Unless you are a banker/oil baron.
