    Lingerie Chest is Done

    I was wondering if this day would ever arrive, but it did, I spent about 4 hours today putting the finishing touches on the chest. For the benefit of any who have not followed the progress or maybe have forgotten that there was progress actually being made, I started this almost 3 years ago...

    Hope chest / blanket box: Input & Suggestions?

    So...as usual, I am procrastinating. Christmas is here, and I have not yet started on my due projects. One being a jewelry box (finishing will be the only big time consumer there), and the big one being a hope chest/blanket box for the wife. My first question is...is there a difference...

    Toy Chest- what would you do?

    Here is a toy chest I am building for my son. It is unfinished and topless. I do plan on adding some sort of feet/legs to it, but I haven't quite figured that out either. I want to know what you all would do to finish this. I could paint it, but would rather not if there is another...

    Blanket chest

    Just finished up a blanket chest for my wife. We got a new bedroom set earlier in the year and she wanted a medium sized chest to match the "beach style" since they didn't offer one. It's made with poplar, MDF and knotty pine for the slats with 4 coats of white lacquer and 3 coats of clear. This...

    The Anarchist's Tool Chest

    Since it's been too hot to work in the shop very much lately, I've been reading Chris Schwarz's "The Anarchist's Tool Chest". I finished it last night. It was an interesting read for the most part although I cann't seem to grasp the idea of a minimalist's set of tools. That sounds like leaning...

    Chest is Taking Shape

    Took a couple of days off this week to enjoy what could be the coolest temps we may see for some months. Of course I took some time to play get in the shop. Last weekend I posted progress and finished hand fitting the dust panels. First was a dry fit and milled the lower front and back rails...

    Some Long Overdue Progress on Lingerie Chest

    I started this lingerie chest over 2 years ago, since then there has been one delay or stumbling block on top of another. Finally, today I made some progress. The major problem was how to get around the varying depth of the dado's in the sides for the dust panels. My guess is that the spacers I...

    What is the best wood for a Hope Chest?

    I have seen quite a few Hope Chests made out of a wide variety of woods, but wonder just what should I use to make the ones for my three daughters. I see quite a few folks making the chests out of cedar. That wood just seems a little soft for a long lasting chest that may have to endure many...
