This is my project for today.  Walnut trim to face and line a BB plywood shelf that I'll mount over my refrigerator.  It will slide out on full extension slides for easier access to whatever is on it.

Used my CNC to cut slots for dominos at each flat and mitered corner. One last piece to make to connect the back corners, then I'll be cutting up a sheet of 1/2" BB plywood for the bottom, sides, and back.

Norm Abram never changed a router bit...he changed routers...each set up with a different router bit..

My strategy as well. Only the router table and my CNC get a new bit when the project needs change.  No sense in having several CNCs or router tables. 

You boahs got me rethinking my tool strategy 

I think he’s running a router rescue out of his shop. Aaron’s home for wayward routers.

My bad, looks like that’s Jack’s home for wayward routers.

Correct,..it's Jack's home and Aaron is impressed 

When I find them  cheap, I pick them up. When I was running my own shop, I needed to keep routers around since I depended on them so much. So the more I had, the  happier I was..

Well, this WAS on my bench Sunday...

As was this...

Box has been delivered to a Friends House, where she can stash in it whatever she wants..

 

Pouting Chair is sitting upstairs on the Fireplace Mantel....

Needed something to do..while the Computer was down....

Nice!

 

Steven, you have the biggest table saw I’ve ever seen!

Tried out the new 60 toothed blade for those 2 Projects...

Seems Walmart is selling Job Site Tablesaws and Compound Miter Saws..and the blades for them...Both in 10" and 8-1/4" sizes....I bought a 60 tooth and a 24 toothed 8-1/4" blade, as that size does fit my 8" Tablesaw....so far, this blade does leave a very nice smooth cut...cost for both blades?   $20 for the pair...plus OH sales tax...

Wife decides she needs a spinning bookshelf. Started by cutting some white oak to glue up for 18 inch nround shelves.

 

Today took the clamps off and started flattening the shelves. This is white oak so this part was not fun.

 

still have two to get tomorrow. Lazy Susan ordered to arrive Saturday.

It will be heavy…

Was not satisfied with the sawtill that I had in my tool chest so I decided to build another one. It's still in progress it's got a lot more shaping to go but I need to let the glue dry first.

Bring it to Indiana. It'll be freeze dried before you can get the cap back on the bottle.

I suspect that I would be too. So pass. Lol

I like the shape allowing access to the handles.

Thanks.  It's heavier than the one I had in the chest, but it is considerably less deep front to back, so opens up more floor space in the bottom.

What it looks like in the chest.

 

 

 

It's not completed yet. I need to take it out of the chest this week coming up, as soon as I get the chance, and sand and smooth everything out. I'm also going to bevel the edges of the wood where the saw blades go in so they will slip into their places smoothly. But this works very nicely for me.
