A small table for our toddler to draw on and ruin 😊 Solid maple build with mortise & tenon aprons. The top was bookmatched from a piece of 8/4....

I found that simply reversing my featherboard makes it function very well as a thin ripping jig to make repeated (thin) cuts on the non-fence side of the blade. The featherboard’s hard side is simply set at the appropriate distance from the blade on the side opposite the fence. Then the fence is moved to support the larger...

Hey woodies,...

I made these stands for my kids. There was little room on each side of their bookshelf but I think they worked out....

I built a pedal board to use in my band (lake effect is in the band name); it’s basically a box with a slot to route power out of, and to the velcro’d down pedals on top....

Some light carving out of pine on a strike day. If the boss wont scratch my back, I guess I gotta do it my self. Finished with light touch of chestnut colour staining varnish....

I can’t tell if I’m sharpening incorrectly or if my file is just worn out. Is there a way to tell? I read somewhere to replace after like five sharpening a but that seems really short.

Hey WW community. Exactly as the title says - I am making some work tables for my kids. They’ll be used for homework, laptops, etc. And they’re kids, so one can guarantee a little bit of abuse....

Hi there! I’m confused with this one… I’ve got these plywood squares that I had to drill a bunch of holes in. Despite using a low speed on my drill and adding masking tape (below) there’s still pretty nasty tear out on nearly all holes. (EDIT: These are not through holes, this is for crochet square blocking boards. Metal...

The softwood kind of fuzzed out but otherwise everything turned out pretty good after a solid sanding. I used oak for the wood tiles, birch for the sheep and wheat, and ash for the ore with various stains for each

I know it’s pretty basic but doing the laminated top has really been kicking my butt. I chose to make it from pine as she repairs rugs and sometimes needs to nail them to her bench and this should be easy to nail into and pull the nails back out of. I’m going to apply some poly to the top and hopefully I can finally sign off...

Knocked out this medium sized salad bowl the other day. The blank had been sitting around for at least five years!...

I made my wife a floating shelf out of poplar. The wood has a nice light color and we’d like to leave it relatively natural. I’m overwhelmed by the clear coat options and don’t have a lot of experience with natural wood look. Any recommendations? Any help is greatly appreciated!

Commissioning a Board Game Table, What Should I Look Out For?...

Pretty happy with how this turned out, even months later...

Check this clamp monster! Made from plywood and cedar strips.

I thought some people here might appreciate it. More of Sueshiro Sano´s stunning work: sanomagic.world.coocan.jp/englishindex.html

To preface this, I have no idea what I’m doing. This is basically my first woodworking project....

Same burl as the picture from the other day...
