Early 1900s spruce drawers
Woodman posted a gallery image in Small Crafts, Boxes, Picture Frames, and Lighting
From the album: Scrappy spruce shelf
Here's the curb find seen in the rough, summer of 2018. Outside an old administrative building in West Philly. These built-in-place drawers are c.1885-1915. Apparently "kit" drawer parts. The drawer sides are dado'd, the drawer bottoms hand-planed on three sides to fit the dado. Nailed to the drawer front. I only salvaged the bottoms. Oops! -
mini heartpine tray
Woodman posted a gallery image in Small Crafts, Boxes, Picture Frames, and Lighting
From the album: Small crafts
This will sell at an informal farm market extension. Ten bucks is right in the budget for a young gal juggling college, food, rent. An hour of my life for a little tray she'll have for a lifetime.© thepatriotwoodworker

2022 W38 longleaf crafting
Woodman posted a gallery image in Small Crafts, Boxes, Picture Frames, and Lighting
From the album: Small crafts
Typically I'll collect and mill / plane / scrape pieces until components are collected for several assemblies. Then lay out the table the night before. Tidy piles of parts. Glue. Clamps. Scrapers & chisels. Come first light, with hot fresh coffee, work until I'm out of clamps. After hearing my priorities are skewed, I reflected to resolution. And ordered more clamps.© thepatriotwoodworker

2022 05 spruce side shelf 7

The final. Modern chromed Lee Valley hooks currently conceal the shelf mounting screws. Looking for a couple of c.1925 nickel-plated brass bath hooks, larger, with the rounded tip, to swap in place. -

Left oblique profile, we see the provenance of the wood. Here the modern hook I used, with an authentic c.1927 nickel-plated brass bath hook before it. I'll likely swap hooks at some point. Maybe . . . -
2021 12 spruce side shelf 5.JPG

From the album: Scrappy spruce shelf
Done for now . . . The pine strip was a mistake, as it took BLO differently than the old spruce. After the brackets were added, the shelf went into the rafters until I could reconcile the finish mismatch. The issue was eventually resolved. With fresh burr, I scraped everything. Spruce, pine, off with the boiled linseed oil on the spruce, the varnish touchup to the pine, back to flat. -

A good article on layered finishes. Wipe-and-go is not always the best approach for adding color. I should add that years ago, my buddies at PopWood found General Finishes Java a good stain for QSWO, too. https://www.popularwoodworking.com/finishing/arts-crafts-oak-finish/?hss_channel=tw-27657236#
