    Thread chasers

    I've been looking everywhere for them. I can find them but they're either being sold offshore or trying to sell entire sets or kits which I don't need and cost more than I want to spend. I've got one project I need cut 16tpi threads on for the time being and the availability for 16tpi chasers...

    Chick-Inn

    My daughter, whom turns 16 next week, begged for pet chickens for 2 years. I gave in months ago and started a project. We live in town so we can't have roosters and are only allowed up to six hens. My daughter was very honest when she said; "I don't even know if I can take care of chickens", so...

    Second attempt at hollow form

    From the scrap pile I utilized poplar and red oak. The poplar was left over from a project a few months ago. the red oak was old pallet wood. I wanted to turn end grain and wanted two different hardness's. As with my first attempt, I really just wanted to create evils and make something hateful...

    First hollow form

    Understand folks, my lathe is a necessary evil. When I need it, it's there, and that's its purpose. An upcoming project for a friend is a cremation urn and before I begin spinning a large chunk of spalted maple, I need some practice. I glued some 2X4's together and turned a basic shape and...

    Board stretcher

    Current outdoor project has left me with a quite a few 2'+ cutoffs (some shorter, some longer). I still have a need for 2x4 lumber cut at 41" to 48". Their placement and use doesn't require much structural integrity. Since it was raining anyway, I decided to stretch some boards and a few...

    Taz

    I have no desire to get into turning bowls (not saying I won't give it a try at some point but it's not something I care to get into). I am however in constant need of a lathe for this or that. An upcoming project pushed me to do something about not having one at my disposal. I'm a very patient...

    Busy box

    It was my first decorative style box build. I made a ton of mistakes and I learned a lot. The recipient is a friend of the family and she loves "busy" things (paintings, sculptures, wood crafts, etc). With the exception of the walnut splines and the top veneer, it's all maple from a pallet...

    Squared and angled...

    So I got my Wixey WR300 the other day. In fact, I was already out in the shop when my wife sends me text saying I had a package on the counter and I knew exactly what it was. I dropped what I was doing and made a B-line for the house............the counter. After opening everything up and firing...

    Ridgid R4512

    Albeit this is not a review of the saws performance per se as I have not used it enough to do that yet, this is however a review of assembly and setup. And I’ll take a few moments to vent about the Craigslist and the people selling items on it. About 7 months ago I started really searching...

    Veneer tape

    Hey guys, I just placed an order for some veneers for a couple of projects I'm working on. I've searched my shop wall to wall and cannot find my roll of veneer tape. I don't need much at all. 12 inches or so would be a plenty for right now. I really hate to place an order for $6. If anyone has...
