How do you think the police report would be written up if someone got rearended by that weiner?

If that starts happening Randy, it means you’re not riding fast enough.

Marty, Love the box, but I am a sucker for cherry and maple. (and walnut, oak sycamore or whatever).

Good morning friends,

more labor for daily bread, then tonight it is back to work on the kitchen. I am preparing to mount the wall cabinets on the north wall. I had to build a small trestle to help hold up the range hood while we install the wiring and the duct work. It is a much saner time to work in the attic.

-- My mother named me Hamilton, I have been trying to earn my nickname ever since.

Good morning all.

Ham, I know you’ll be glad when you’re done with that kitchen.
I haven’t seen photos in a while. Can you post some or link to where there are some posted?

Patron, that’s nice.
I didn’t think it was veneer though. I immediately though like intarsia or marquetry patterns. I also thought, because of the size compared to the quarter, an extremely accurate and detailed intarsia or marquetry pattern.

-- http://wddsrfinewoodworks.blogspot.com/

Patron, that’s a big quarter.

Morning,

Caught a nasty cold this weekend.
Burning me up this morning.
Have a great day all.

Keep it a family thread please, folks!

If you want someone to shoot the legs of your box I would gladly have someone use a shotgun here. lol

Evening all.
For those who may or may not be interested, I got the initial coats of Danish Oil on the lamp and shade today. It now has to sit for three or four days for the oil to completely dry before putting at least two coats of poly on.

-- http://wddsrfinewoodworks.blogspot.com/

that sure brought out the grain

very nice william

Lamp is looking even better with the first coats of finish!

-- It's the best woodworking show since the invention of wood... New episodes Wednesdays at: http://www.stumpynubs.com

I also finished another short project today if you want to see it. It isn’t much, but it’s for my Dad.

-- http://wddsrfinewoodworks.blogspot.com/

Working over a very expensive tool..

a before shot, and the after shot…

of my $.50 Stanley Handyman #133H Cordless screwdriver….

-- A Planer? I'M the planer, this is what I use

Wonderful job William
Bandit your screwed.

-- Superdav "No matter where you go - there you are." http://chiselandforge.com

William,
Can’t wait to see it with the light on!!!

Bandit,
You know we are serious folks here!!! Stop “screwing” around. Lol. ;)

-- Randy-- I may not be good...but I am slow!

David – those are some crazy small little bits of accurate cutting…...wow…....

William – the oil really made it pop…..nice! Now patience…....cool little project for your Dad also….nicely engineered.

-- Jeff - I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work.

I have patience for right now Jeff.
Actually, I’ve been down enough for so many weeks now that I’ve actually got a lot of shop maintenance type stuff I plan on doing while this takes up the space on my work bench. Oh, I know I could move it, but it gives me an excuse to stop making excuses on why I have gotten behind on some other things.
Cleanup.
Drill bit storage.
Two table saws to tune up.
The list is long.
I won’t bore ya’ll with all the details.

-- http://wddsrfinewoodworks.blogspot.com/

William, That looks amazing with some finish (I shoulda used oil instead if just lacquer on my b’eye). You’re making me look bad!

-- " I'll try to be nicer, if you'll try to be smarter" gfadvm

Ya’ll let me know if my last response to Jeff shows up.
My internet is acting screwy tonight.
We’ll blame it on Bandit.

-- http://wddsrfinewoodworks.blogspot.com/

Got it William – may not just be your computer – LJ’s has been a problem to post sometimes…...

Always good to do the cleanup and maintenance….....I’m a bit behind on the maintenance stuff myself…...really got to be in the mood…

-- Jeff - I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work.

Hey Dave – hows the book…? :)

Also wondering how that forge is going…...thought we might see some crazy hammered things coming out…...

-- Jeff - I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work.

Marty’s probably locked himself in the shop…..deadline is coming…..

-- Jeff - I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work.

Andy – sure am curious what you are working on there….

-- Jeff - I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work.

Randy’s switching his blade-less planer on and off laughing out loud…...

-- Jeff - I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work.

Jeff I got side tracked this weekend and only got to do the little plane.
Looks like we are on our way to a little maple finish contest.
Now as far as the forge goes. The weather is right but coal has become such a problem I am about to go to gas.

-- Superdav "No matter where you go - there you are." http://chiselandforge.com

What is the weather there you guys?
(In celsuis) :P

-- My terrible signature...

Dave – I like the sound of a maple finish contest…...should be good….

The coal is a problem to get….or to fire right?

-- Jeff - I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work.

It’s no contest.
The finish I’m working on is U-G-L-Y.
I say that because it’s what my wife wanted.
I hate this finish.
It looks nice, but in my opinion, is too much of a pain.
I like my shellac.

-- http://wddsrfinewoodworks.blogspot.com/

Dave, I swear, you had better agree that my finish is ugly.
If you ever tell my wife it looks good, I’ll be on the hook forever.
I’ll be having to wait a week on oil to dry on everything I build for her.
Ya’ll please just let me win this one with her.
I don’t like slow finishes.

-- http://wddsrfinewoodworks.blogspot.com/

William – looks darn good from here….....your wife may be right…......

-- Jeff - I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work.

Wife may be right?????
What’s wrong with you?
Us guys are supposed to stick together.
We’re NEVER supposed to say the wife is right.
We only say that when we’re talking to our own wives.
Of course we never win that argument.
But we can try.

-- http://wddsrfinewoodworks.blogspot.com/

I was right one time.
My wife told me I was right and she was wrong.

She must have known something was up,
Because she woke me up before I could even finish that dream.

-- http://wddsrfinewoodworks.blogspot.com/

No matter who among you two is right, I am absolutely right when I say that that is one dam fine lamp!

-- Gene 'The true soldier fights not because he hates what is in front of him, but because he loves what is behind him.' G. K. Chesterton

I did say “might”......plus I believe Gene just cast a vote as well….....just saying…

-- Jeff - I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work.

Hey, I’m just joking.
The work and beautiful wood for this lamp I think makes it worth the finish time I’m putting in it.
I was actually surprised at the way the grain of the maple looked after the oil finish.
I wasn’t sure it was going to be seen very well in pictures though.
I think it’ll look even nicer after the several coats of polished poly is applied.
That’ll being out a shine to it.

-- http://wddsrfinewoodworks.blogspot.com/

Jeff,
I’m compiling my replacement parts order for the planer. The screws for the gibbs, (planer knife retainer thing-a-ma-jiggy thingies) are they hex or torx??? Mine came with hex, but the wrench needs to be replaced and I will be using the screws from your (soon to be mine) cutterhead/gibbs/blades.

I don’t have a wife, SO I’m ALWAYS right!!!

-- Randy-- I may not be good...but I am slow!

If we are going to have a contest though, that means I may need to put a little extra time in that polishing, huh?

-- http://wddsrfinewoodworks.blogspot.com/

No Randy,
You have us to tell you when you’re wrong.
