    Coffee table prototype

    I've just finished the assembly of a prototype for a coffee table. It's turned out pretty well so far, so if I don't screw up the finish too bad, this should end up a nice table. My final will be cherry and padauk - the design requires a number of techniques I've never tried so I didn't want to...

    Fire Piston Prototype

    I've wanted to try an fire piston for some time, so while waiting on some roughed out hollow forms to dry, thought this would be a good time. For those of you not familiar with a fire piston, it works on the same principle as a diesel engine. Use compression to start a fire. The fire piston...

    Franklin Rocking Chair Prototype

    Nearly finished, but I have some questions for you folks because this is being made out of SPF. The joinery is mortise & tenon with the following specs: Tenons are 1 1/4" width x 3/8" thick x 1" length. The stock is 2" x 1 1/2". I plan to pin most of the tenons with 1 1/4" x 8 screws after...

    Deacon's Bench Prototype

    Finished the Deacon's Bench Prototype today. Turned out OK. I'm gonna show this one to the client, and if he approves, build 2 for him. I learned a LOT on this one. Round to flat joinery is definitely interesting. End view of arms, seat joinery, and back detail Traditional "Old...

    a project becomes a prototype

    I had something of a disaster on a workpiece last night, yet I am oddly relieved about it. I have had this jouhikko near completion for months: I have lots of excuses as to why I didn't finish and some have some legitimacy - for various reasons I haven't had much shop time since Spring -...

    Prototype Collapsible SCMS Dust Hood

    As I have mentioned to some of you I have been working on this prototype collapsible SCMS dust hood for some time. I wanted something that was low cost, covered the rear of the saw in any orientation, and collapsed. I used some left over ½” ply and some 1” ply, some old piano hinges, one window...

    Auto-blastgate, working prototype *w/pics*

    I was going to wait until I had a final version, but decided to go ahead and post pics of the prototype since it is close to a final design. I picked up some 110V solenoid pneumatic air valves off Ebay. Like most on Ebay they had been removed from some automated machine and came in a block...

    Woodwind prototype made in MDF; WIP

    My Irish Uilleann pipes, which I made in 1983 of Mexican Rosewood and brass, are currently what is called a "half-set": which means they have a chanter (melody pipe) and drones (steady bass), but do not have what are called "regulators", closed keyed pipes that provide rythmic accompaniment...

    Prototype pawn

    I would like some honest feedback on this prototype pawn I came up with. I think the version I will go with I will reduce the diameter of the top of the pawn. The part right under the ball. I'm pretty happy with this design overall though. Not bad for my first piece ever.

    Lacquer on a pig :) + prototype

    Well, I took some advice and ignored others and decided to finish up my ill-designed box. I did attach the feet, despite being a little thick 'cause they took a long time to make and I didn't know how I would otherwise utilize them. I lowered the handle, and unless you look close you can't even...
