Good Monday morning! Good Monday morning Patriot Woodworkers! What did you get done over the weekend, and what have you planned for the week ahead! Inquiring minds want to know. Please tell us what's happening in your shops, your life, and any events going on with you. Thank you for being here folks! Community news Our Veterans Forum and Free For All Forum are soon to have an official host! I have wanted a host for our Veterans Forum for some time now, and we were waiting for someone to step up and into the fire. Our Veterans Forum deserves attention, and a host, after all the premise of our existence as a forum is our veterans. Soon we will have our host up and running, he will assume the duties of posting veteran relevant topics such as congressional and presidential bills and laws that effect our veterans, and topics related to anniversaries of wars, battles, and much more. This is a works in progress, how our new host will approach this task is unfolding at the time of this announcement. I am excited. Also, our new host has also volunteered to host the Free For All. So, standby folks for the unveiling of our host. Who can it be?

Good Monday Morning! Good Monday morning Patriot Woodworkers! What did you get done over the weekend, and what have you planned for the week ahead! Inquiring minds want to know. Please tell us what's happening in your shops, your life, and any events going on with you. Thank you for being here folks! Our family was very busy this past weekend, had to take our 9 year old doggy to the Emergency Vet, turns out she is very anemic, which typically doesn't turn out too well for dogs, she is on steroids to suppress her immune system in order to let the red blood cells come up, she seems improved, but I feel we are only delaying the inevitable. We will take her in to our family vet and see what he has to say. It's always hard. Little sleep the last few nights, we kind of take turns watching her or being alert as we sleep, if she does take a turn for the worse, we don't want her to deal with her remaining time on earth alone while we are sleeping. If she starts to demonstrate other symptoms of failure, we'll have to take her in and put her down. Life, don't we love it!

Featured Link Our featured links are website links added by staff and members, add your favorite links today at "Links Directory" Featured download Featured image Brooklyn-based woodworker Kate Casey of Peg Woodworking is what you would call an anomaly in her field. Even though her industry is primarily dominated by men, this hasn’t stopped her from making a name for herself in the design world. We discovered her work while perusing the Architectural Digest Show last year and were immediately transfixed by her sculptural wood pieces and detailed woven patterns that are transposed onto chairs, stools and benches. We were excited to include the company’s totems in our cover shoot with Julia Stiles. We stepped into the Peg Woodworking world to find Kate and her two assistants, Sally and Catherine, hard at work polishing, sanding and creating at their studio in Bed-Stuy, Brooklyn. We also explored their design studio in Fort Greene. We were fascinated by the process and how you will be too. Read more....

If your house was built before the 1830s, then it’s almost certain to be a timber frame home. An easy way to tell is to go into the basement or attic where the timbers are still visible. There you’ll find thick, usually hand-hewn, beams of locally grown timbers. The frame is completely self-sufficient unlike other forms of framing that require cross-bracing or sheathing to add racking strength and rigidity to the frame." Source: The Craftsman Blog

Good Monday Morning! Good Monday morning Patriot Woodworkers! What did you get done over the weekend, and what have you planned for the week ahead! Inquiring minds want to know. Please tell us what's happening in your shops, your life, and any events going on with you. Thank you for being here folks! Yesterday I took a couple hours and finished up a chest for our daughters room, the chest will sit in a window alcove and they'll put "things" in it, just more much needed storage for the girls. I used some really cool old hinges to secure the lid with. I purchased them off Ebay years ago, they are colonial reproduction hinges made in the 40's. There is no joinery on the chest to speak of, my girl wanted this chest this weekend, so I resorted to simple glued up but joints, with countersunk screws, and wood dowel plugs to hide the screws. Dovetails would have been nice, but that would have added another weekend onto the project. Flattened the panels of the chest, this is the lid of the chest. Installing the hinges. (That's me, for you new guys ) And one happy daughter.

Tomorrow is D Day. 76 years ago, a whole bunch of people just like us joined together to stop a demonic evil political system. Most of those people have since died and the few remaining are dying every day. There were horrific losses on both sides, and as always, the civilian population suffered immensely. I don't think it is an impossible dream and hope to want wars of any kind to end. Defense against real threats is necessary but anything else is insanity. hat

While going through and scanning Workbench plans for us to use here, I came across this series of safety tips they used to have in their issues. Still relevant today, I thought it'd be fun, and beneficial to share one of their article series "What's Wrong Here" with you. If I come across more of these I'll post them up .

I have continued to scan my collection of Workbench Magazine plans for our guests and members to download from our Files Department, and I thought I'd share the Shop Tips section of the magazine as well. As is the case with my file downloads for plans from Workbench Magazine, the same applies here, I have received permission from the current Workbench Magazine to publish the old articles and plans on the open source web. Please see the collection of plans as well at https://thepatriotwoodworker.com/files/ Enjoy! These tips still apply to our work today, very cool!

View File Workbench Magazine May-June 1967 Tray Table First a generous-size serving tray, then a bed table with short legs that fold down from the underside this versatile unit finally becomes a TV snack table by a quick change of legs. The short legs are fitted in a frame that is held inside the tray by the ingenious use of Tee Nuts and thumbscrews. The projecting screws slip into short lengths of tubing “force-fitted” in holes in the ends of the leg frame. When the long legs are to be used, the thumb-screws are backed out, the frame removed and the legs installed. The screws fit in holes in the upper ends of the legs, and are held by nuts turned against flat washers.
