    recent minor gloat material

    Just a few things from HF visit the other day: I am always losing certain hex wrenches, so I got sets of the fold out type this time (that way I will lose them all :rolf:). Push sticks were on special for $0.99, so I picked up a couple. Those little clamps are awesome! That's $7 I should...

    Drawer Material ????

    When constructing drawers where the front is secured to the sides with a drawer lock, rabbet or HB dovetail joint I often see the sides and backs being constructed out of poplar; when the drawer front was some other hardwood (cherry, oak, walnut etc.). Is there any particular reason why poplar...
