Workbench Magazine September-October 1965 Cowboy Bookends
By John Morris
This is a scanned document of the now defunct Workbench Magazine of this era. Permission was granted by the new Workbench Publication for The Patriot Woodworker community to copy and use the old Workbench Magazine at our pleasure, and for free distribution and re-use.
Here is a wonderful diagram for cutting out some classic book ends for your western literature collection. I love these, they remind me of a bygone era of a classic boys room, with these cool bookends on a shelf of the wall. This plan also has a great suggestion for using molten lead for added weight of the bookends.
Note the piano wire that is used for the lasso, it appears that as the cowboy draws the lasso tight, the bookends are also being drawn in to tighten upon the books!

This is a wonderful example of Danish work at its core, what a great crafts project to undertake, and it will sure to be the center piece of any table setting or this would also make a wonderful coffee table accessories. I love Danish, the simplicity, the folk art that surrounds it, and this looks like it would be a pretty simple project to turn out and carve out in a day. Hope you enjoy!

This is a nice little quick project, with a timeless design that still holds today, modernism is seen in these simple candle holders, very cool indeed.

This is a fun project for old timey waste baskets. It's been a long time since I have seen the joints joined by thong leather or rope, very cool! Have fun!

Workbench Magazine 1962 Jan-Feb Grandfather Clock
By John Morris
This is a scanned document of the now defunct Workbench Magazine of this era. Permission was granted by the new Workbench Publication for The Patriot Woodworker community to copy and use the old Workbench Magazine at our pleasure, and for free distribution and re-use.
This scan has a wonderful grand father clock schematic and text instructions. These old Workbench Magazine's were fairly light on the detail, but with some prior knowledge and experience you can use this plan as a great jumping off point to build a grandfather clock. There is also a nice little Picture Frame Clock plan included with this scanning. Only the two clocks are included in this scanning, not the entire magazine.
Enjoy!

Well with this new regulation and laws pretty soon electrical power is bound to be found to cause cancer in the state of California. Thus it is banned. -

There is a whole world of woodworkers working without power, it's wonderful, creative, and beautiful. Jarrod Dahl is one of those woodworkers, creating his turnings by roughing out the blank by hatchet, then turning on a pole lathe, all his creations on his website are done entirely without electricity, something I aspire too. His wooden ware is done in the Slojd tradition, as all his work is. I hope to be there someday in my journey. WOODSPIRIT HANDCRAFT WW -

Sure nuff guys! I am heading in this direction, I'll have a wonderful write up of the pole lathe build too! And I'll soon have my electric lathe up for sale! -
Yeah I read some about that, John you might want to get started on a solar / wind turbine / go back to candles projects.

Why not? The parts are easily replaced, no shipping charges, no electricity when PG&E turn off the electricity. And, he'll get in really good shape. One thing you might consider is a stationary bike and use those old web belts as they used to use. -
