  1. Not that I am trying to avoid them, ya understand...
  2. So yesterday me Missus asked me to make a spice rack that can mount on the inside of the pots and pans cabinet door. I took some measurements, and lay it out in my head as I’m trying to sleep. Pretty basic, back piece, two sides, bottom, and a bar across the front the hold things in. I have never made/used a rabbet before and decide this will be a good project to learn on. I’m using 1/4 Baltic Birch. I get the 4 main pieces cut, and rabbeted. Everything fits like a dream, I’m pretty satisfied with myself. Only thing left to do before glue-up is to cut the dado/groove in the front of the 2 side pieces for the bar to go across the front and keep things from falling out. YUP, you guessed it, I got discombobulated and cut the dado/groove in the back of the 2 side pieces. I had already cleaned up and put away the router table (which I had gotten dialed in perfectly for the rabbets), so I called it a day. I must be getting mature, or at least older, cause I didn’t even throw anything . I will cut 1/4 inch off the back of the 2 sides, and rabbet the back again, and this time try to make sure I cut the dados/grooves in the FRONT of the pieces. So as to learn SOMETHING from this experience what is the proper name for the cut in the front of the 2 side pieces for the front bar? A dado goes across the grain, a groove goes with the grain, plywood is glued up perpendicular to each other, so is either name correct? Curious minds want to know (it may be a WEAK mind, but it is curious).
  3. I had an idea for turning something unusual. I sat down and drew up plans and made drawing. It involved cutting angles and drilling holes, Some were thin cuts. I drilled the holes and made the cuts...........HOWEVER, I dropped the darn thing and it broke into MANY, Many pieces. I just looked at that mess that took me hours of planning and walked away. Didn't cuss, didn't do a thing, not even clean it up. I just walked to the outdoor swing, where there was a cool breeze, and took a nap. :-) Old guys can do that, you know.
  4. My wife put the cover on the burn barrel awhile back. Seems the fire was not done and the wooden barrel top well, it burned... Now that I am done with the deck this can be fixed. We like the cover to keep the stuff inside from getting wet until we burn. Also the cats seem to enjoy yet another perch so hey a win win situation. Broke out my circle cutting jig for bandsaw and proceeded to cut two pieces of 3/4 plywood neighbor gave me. Two nice neat circles one undersized to fit the lip so it stays put. Rounded the edges on the router table and did some light sanding. Glued and screwed it together, used the 1/4 hole for the jig as my centering mark and done. Next up is paint. Nothing fancy just a task that needed to get done. Sure was nice to have the jig ready to go.
  5. Still pinch hitting for John Moody as he recovers from hand surgery. Fall has hit the midwest with wind, rain and cooler temperatures. I'm in the shop wrapping up a few cutting boards and trivets for an upcoming show. So, what's on your weekend agenda?
