the unexplained - 7 replies As we celebrated the creepiest of nights, cigars and beer kept us joyful. The candy went away with little fairies and happy clowns. There were no creatures, no little monsters dressed scarily. Not in todays age. The hallowest of nights went from creepy to seemingly wimpy. The children can’t handle being scared. But that is what the night ... |

Happy Halloween - 6 replies I figured I’d grace the site with a quick Happy Halloween, as well as share a couple of pumpkins Heidi and I carved. I carved the skull and she carved the flaming face and scare crow. I carved one with my daughter, but unfortunately didn’t get pics of it. I spent some time showing her how to use the saw, and she enjoyed scraping ou... |

FWW Contest - 6 replies I entered my bubinga cabinet into the cure for the common cabinet contest on Fine Woodworkings website and have been hesitant to ask for votes. However, I feel as though others have and will ask for votes too, so it puts me at a dissadvantage. So here is the project: ... |

Vacuum Veneering - 7 replies I haven’t had much experience with vacuum veneering large panels simply because you can pretty much buy whatever you want, which is what I have always done. On smaller projects, such as my marquetry projects, I have always glued my veneer to my substrate (one on front, and one of back for stabilization) and then put a caul on the front an... |

new quote of the day - 5 replies I posted my first quote of the day 2 days ago and was going to post one yesterday. I’d really like to make a “thing” out of it, but sometimes I just don’t think enough. I normally think of something throughout the day but don’t have a pen and paper to jot it down. This quote was thought up right before I went to ... |

Your Quote of the day - 81 replies I may come up with a quote for everyone here from time to time. This is my first attempt and I may not be the first to say this, but this morning I thought it up. I haven’t read it or seen it. “To be successfull at what you do you must do what you do successfully.” So there you have it. Your quote of the day. |

Wow, what a guy! - 24 replies I have to say right off the bat that nobody has ever made anything for me, especially something that is extremely usefull. So to be able to share this post means the world to me. I’ve never been a huge pen fan, at least the ones that are always getting posted here. For some reason I’ve always disregarded them as a simple project, ... |

Am I an idiot or what? - 13 replies Well I complained about my tablesaw and how I couldn’t get it to zero. I was about to get ahold of ridgid and see about cashing in on the warranty. As I cranked on it it was buckling the side of the cabinet and I couldn’t figure out why it wouldn’t go to zero. I figured something was in there keeping it from turning so I clea... |

What is it - 22 replies Alrighty, I figured I’d give this a go. This could be easy for you. This is not my jig, I did not design it, invent it, etc. I just use it. The guy who made it moved. So Steven if you see this you can’t guess man. LOL The prize is feeling good that you knew what it was. LOL. So here it is. I’ll post the answer tomo... |

Outdoor Table - 13 replies I am in the process of bidding to build a custom out door table for a return client. His home is in the Arizona desert. He is wanting something that will be rustic. He wants it to be heavy, a tanish, light brown color, wants distressing, hand carvings, etc. I told him teak and he is familier with it, but I’m worried about it’s ca... |

WWOOO.....................hu - 14 replies I’m pretty excited that Saturday is coming up quickly. Not only will my bench be completed as far as the building goes, but the landlord is paying to have 220 v installed for the bandsaw!! Nothing like having something done for free. Of course he is having me redo his personal kitchen at his house, but come on, it’s still pretty c... |

Chin up - 12 replies I am a proud member of Gracie Barra Jiu Jitsu and practice as much as time permits. Today in class a fellow classmate graduated from brown belt to black and was told to give a speach. The quote he used was from another fighter but it speaks volumes : “A black belt is a white belt that never gave up”. He went on to say that if you ... |

Thought I'd share - 7 replies I recieved an email today from a fellow woodworker from a different site. He sent me a reminder of “Things to Consider When using A Table Saw”. So I thought I would start my second year here at LJ’s by sharing this. We all need reminders sometimes. We also need to remember that we can’t always follow every rule, and w... |

blogs/topics problem - 8 replies Am I the only one getting T-d off when posting a blog and it jumps up to the beginning every 5 seconds? I don’t know what the problem is but I’ll be re-reading what I wrote and it will jump up to the freakin top. WTF? Then I have to scroll down, read a line, then it does it again. I don’t know if it’s a problem with th... |
