    Clamp Rack: Weekend Project

    I have wanted to find a home for my 'Bessy-Style' clamps for quite awhile, but until this weekend I never took the time to remedy the situation. I followed a plan that was in the April, 2011 issue of Fine Woodworking. All-in-all I am pleased with how it turned out. I only have 16 clamps, but I...

    Bookcase/Dollhouse: Project Completed

    I finally completed the Dollhouse Bookcase that my daughter requested for my oldest granddaughter. While the project was not difficult, it did have its share of headaches. The plans my daughter asked me to follow were not great (butt joints and nails); consequently, I made several changes to...

    kids project

    Here is a project I did with my 10yr old. It's a folding kayak. This is it's maiden voyage yesterday. We still have to make the oar, but she was anxious about getting it in the water. I highly recommend this project for anyone with kids. It was blast and she loved it...

    Saturday's project

    Earlier this week I received an e-mail from a hay customer referring me to a large red oak tree that recently fell at a local equestrian farm. I drove out today to look at it before incurring the cost to transport my equipment. Whoa..... 208" circumference at breast height! Looks like I can...

The wooden ledge is used to hold the docking station in...

    First project at the new house: Cedar picket fence

    Hi Folks, My first project will be a picket fence (about 450 feet of fence, about 5 feet tall). I think I saw a suggestion on here to buy rough wood and plane it myself to save money. I found a good price on the DW734 and before I buy it wanted to double check to see if that is a good idea...

    Maple Music (A father-son project)

    OK, so it's not ALL maple. But it is for the most part. My son Matthew and I were looking for a new project, and for some reason wind chimes seemed like a cool idea. In retrospect, we might should've thought through it a little more. :gar-Bi It turned out a little more difficult than we...
