    Christmas Presents

    I have had a hard time finding time to log on but I did get some shop time before Christmas to make a few gifts. A gift for my brother who should be retiring from the submarine service in a couple years. I mounted it in a shadow box for him. Thanks for looking constructive criticism...

    A Wood Worker Who Saved Christmas

    This article is a little dated but Christmas is coming back around later this year. I doubt the overseas issues will be gone anytime soon. http://www.nytimes.com/2007/12/23/us/23toys.html?_r=1&ex=1198990800&en=dde51033e4d0ff19&ei=5070&emc=eta1&oref=slogin

    Late Christmas (Kinda) gloat with lots of ?s

    Picked this PM66 up off CL back in November after a cabinet maker closed down his shop, but haven't had time to clean or tune it up until my days off after Christmas. As you can see it is mounted on my 'universal base' and is a much bigger/better machine than what it is replacing. As I am...

    Late Christmas present (VS mini-gloat)

    Well for those who have kept up on the Good Will lathe post, my 11 year old son Alex wants to get into woodturning. We are on the list to receive the Good Will lathe in March. When we went back home to Indiana for Christmas we told my oldest brother, also a woodworker, about Alex’s turn on the...

    Christmas Projects Completed

    I finished a oak coffee table with a walnut stain for my DIL and a plaque made of curly maple with a metal cutout for my oldest grandson who got his first deer this year. His father ( my son ) made the cutout.:eusa_danc

    Christmas Rocking Horse for my son

    Hi, I finally finished this rocking horse for my 3 1/2 year old son for Christmas. I did have it ready by Christmas morning. I picked this up used about 6 months ago and have been working to refinish it ever since. I can say that if I had it to do over I would have just made it from scratch...

    Christmas Tool Gloat!

    The LOML surprised me with the Grizzly Tenoning Jig! (see my avatar) Sweet piece of workmanship ... can't wait to use it. I think this will be especially useful with miter-lock router bit. I have always had a problem with holding the vertical piece perfectly positioned. Will let you folks...

    Chest in Time for Christmas

    I've been working on a hope chest for my grandson since early this summer, but other events got in the way. I had two significant commissioned woodworking jobs and my Mother's death forced me to set aside the work on this project that I had started in June until recently. I've completed the...

    Christmas tree - Recycled?

    Last year I decided that I was tired of laying out good cash for a Christmas tree that would end up in the landfill a few weeks later. A few days of thinking about it led to the creation here. Eight leaves of 1/4" luan recycled from the walls in my shop inserted in grooves in a center stalk...

    A christmas present for the FIL

    Well awhile back, I was able to pick up a mini-lathe used for one of Tom's reviews. I just could not resist the opportunity to get the FIL started down the turning path. Knowing that he would need to keep the lathe in the garage (and his garage is cleaner than my kitchen) I decided to make a...

    What's on your Christmas list?

    Not sure if this has already been done or not, but I thought it would be interesting to see what's on everyone's "want list" for Christmas when it comes to woodworking stuff ... Maybe we can each name the top few on our list .... I'll start. 1. Good Lathe Chisels Set 2. A Quality Bowl Gouge...

    Early Christmas Gloat

    So I have been on the lookout for a Biscuit Joiner for a couple of months now. I had pretty much settled on a Dewalt or Porter Cable. I was just waiting for that deal. Well, the deal came through. The BORG cleared out the Dewalt DW682K a couple of months ago. They got down to under 100.00 but...
