    Tool Hunting In Wilmington

    I am going to be in the downtown area of Wilmington NC this weekend for a triathlon and was wondering if anyone knew of any shops that carried old tools? I am going to be swimming for an Ironman relay team (2.4 miles) and it should only take me about and hour. My wife will be doing the whole ½...

    3 New Tools, 2 Homemade

    Here are three new additions to my shop. The Woodjoy spokeshave was acquired during the Hartvilletool cost+10 special. I have been very pleased with it. The shave was used in the creation of the handles for the burnisher and the hammer. Both of the handles were done with out a lathe. The head...

    Time to post a latest project summary. In keeping with my normal pace of a project or two a year, I finally finished a memory/keepsake box for my wife. Her mom passed away at the end of April after a battle with cancer. Once we were home again, I started on the box. The top is curly maple...

    My Flip Top

    I figured it is time that I posted pictures of one of my latest creations. I finally built a long needed flip top tool cart for my planer and mini mill/drill press. Each weighs 104 lbs. and I got tired of picking them up when I needed to use them. The wood is all 2X4 from a BORG. I did...

    Figured Maple For Memory Box

    My MIL passed away last week and I am going to make a memory box for my wife. I have some nice sapele I picked up from The Woodworking source. (Rick is a great guy and if you have not already checked his store out, well worth the trip.) For the lid, I need to find some interesting maple (tiger...

    What to do with extra oak flooring?

    I have some extra oak flooring and was wondering what I can do with it. I had thought to use it to make drawer boxes and small boxes. The problem is that it is pre-finished flooring. Originally, I had thought of just using my plainer to take the finish off and to clean up the back. I have since...

    Platform Bed For My Youngest Son

    Over the weekend I finally finished my latest project, a platform bed for my youngest son. His room is on the small side and I wanted to use the space under the matrices as useful storage instead of shoving junk under the box spring (like my bed). The bed is made from BORG plywood and popular...

    It Has Shipped!!!!

    I ordered a LV LA Jack yesterday. :icon_chee I had a choice between a new mountain bike and adding to the tool collection for my birthday. Given that I am in the shop most weekends and rarely on the trails these days, WGD won out. I have the LV LA block and have found it to be easy to use. As...

    Hello!

    First, a little about my woodworking. I am a relative novice to woodworking. Most of my time so far has been casework for storage in the garage and a workbench. My current project is a platform bed for my youngest son. I have built more jigs than I have projects so far. It is the engineer in...
