    The Jig

    I have a project coming up where I need to make two matching tapered columns, but alas I do not have a lathe. I wanted a way to create them easily and repeatability was important – here is the jig I came up with.. A box.. On the front end I have a vertical adjustment to set the diameter at one...

    WIP Elevated top table with curved tapered legs

    Attached are photos from the dry fit of my latest project. The table is made of walnut. The top is 15 1/2 " x 35" single board elevated 1/2" above the legs and 1/4" from the rails.

    Tapered Sliding DT's - First Try

    I'm pretty happy with the way they turned out so I thought I'd share. They're not as hard as I thought they would be. First I cut the slot in the case side: I'm using a 1/2" DT bit to make a 5/8" slot so the distance between the guides is the diameter of the router base (6") plus 1/8"...

    Creating tapered legs without a table saw

    What alternatives do I have to creating tapered table legs without the use of a table saw? I have mine in storage in other place, no room for it in my current living situation. I do have a router table and a jointer, can either be used to make 4 identical tapers? Thanks!

    Double Tapered Spindles?

    :notworthy:Does ANYONE know where I might access some double tapered spindles/dowels? I need them for a couple deacon's benches we are attempting to build. (Darksiders, PLEASE don't tell me how easy it is to turn these things from dowels! :nah: I don't have access to a decent lathe, even if...

    Always wanted a Tapered Reamer

    Always wanted a tapered reamer to make chairs and stools. I used a saws-all blade to make the blade. Grind the teeth off, file to a 45° angle and sharpen like a scraper. Drew shape of the reamer in Illustrator and printed it. Glued the printout to a piece of 1/16" x 2" x 12" Brazilian...
