    Small Krenov-style chest on stand

    Hi All, Just finished this small James Krenov style chest on stand. Dimensions are 16X16X48. I used some pretty nice burly/curly maple from Jack Murdoch in Rolesville and some old "barn walnut". The chest is small so I decided to do side-mount drawers since there's minimal space wasted on...

    Choosing Wood

    Hi Gang, Needed to make some jewellery boxes for my twin daughters' birthday this month ( you get used to making double everything) and looked for wood to use. I got some curly maple from Jack Murdoch (Rolesville) a few years back. Some of it had mineral staining and I was going to cut that off...

    Grandmother Clock

    The description for this piece was deleted when it was posted (still can't figure out what I did wrong)...so I put the words into a separate post with the same title . That's why there are two posts with the same title and date. I did figure out how to rotate an image in my galllery (...

    Uploads

    What the heck has happened to the gallery upload process...its become very awkward to use...compared to maybe a few months ago. No matter what I tried, it uploads pictures rotated left. Submit vertical..it loads horizontal. So change original to horizontal..it still loads horizontal. Also you...

    Motor starting caqpacitor

    Hi All, Bought my old Grizzly dust collector in 1991. turned it on yesterday and it just hummed,then turned very slowly up to speed. The 2HP 240V motor would have been expensive to replace but I remembered a post about motors and capacitors a few weeks back. It should have measured open circuit...

    Any Suggestions ?

    Art Wood (free)

    Hi All, I picked up these slabs eons ago thinking I would use them in some kind of wall art..wood tapestry etc. They've been kicking around the shop and it's pretty clear I'm never going to get around to using them...so someone else might as well. They are bone dry. The cherry is pretty curly...

    Sctoll saw set-up

    I think the task lights developed by Charlie are way cool!!...but I guess I'm getting lazy in my old age. Found this goose-neck clamp-on at Wal-Mart for $7.88 and replaced the bulb with a Cree 5 watt LED from the BORG (equivalent lumens out about the same as a 40 watt incandescent...400 lumens...
