Our Patriot Turners- Last week, @Gordon asked us our opinions on the Longworth chuck vs. a vacuum chuck. Gordon posted his decision along with information on what he bought. Check it out!! Although his project was posted in the Patriot Woodcarving Forum, I wanted to share @FrederickH's latest work- it does have some turning involved. Ricks use of leafing is amazing! Check this link for more images and while you are there, go back and read about the entire project. Leafing is an awesome way to embellish turnings! What's Coming Up- Click on the image for the link to registration and more information For The Newbies- A sharpening tip from Tim Yoder One of the best species of wood to turn is FREE WOOD! Unfortunately, the opportunity to obtain this species doesn't always coordinate with your turning schedule. Being able to keep the wood from cracking/splitting until you are ready to use it is important. This video, posted by Popular Woodworking, demonstrates how to seal the ends of the pieces.- Looking for a project to boost your spindle and hollowing skills? Richard Raffan's scoops might be something that will help. They also make great presents! Expand Your Horizons- I thought about @Steve Krumanaker when I saw this video from Mike Peace. Steve turns miniature birdhouses as Christmas ornaments for presents. Mike turns a way to feed all those miniature birdies! How about combining some woodworking and woodturning in the same project? This tutorial is from Popular Woodworking https://www.popularwoodworking.com/projects/shaker-side-table/ The table is similar to one "Norm" made on the New Yankee Workshop. He called it a Martha Washington Candle Table. His had a tilt top. I made one for my "Mrs. Washington" but she hated it- gave it to friends. Turning Time With Easy Wood Tools- Tim Yoder uses the Easy Wood Tools Yorkshire Grit products to finish a bowl. One of the features, about Easy Wood Tools, I am often asked about is- "where are they made?" This short video is enlightening about the manufacturing- AQOVDmH8xqZdQHIR4aQ0HVhuTfzPhp9nKey6_5eo1Mt0FsctgJoKaGDRuP7HxgxhYPmrWZy__ZxYRTIPGJBNdJRB.mp4 Next week's Easy Wood Tools Demonstration schedule https://valleywoodworkers.org/ https://www.rockler.com/retail/stores/nc-cary-store?utm_source=local&utm_medium=organic&utm_campaign=cary https://www.woodcraft.com/pages/store/cleveland-east https://www.rockler.com/retail/stores/ca-rocklin-store?utm_source=local&utm_medium=organic&utm_campaign=rocklin https://www.woodcraft.com/pages/store/parkersburg https://www.rockler.com/retail/stores/fl-brandon-store?utm_source=local&utm_medium=organic&utm_campaign=brandon @Jordan Martindale New Turning Items- Everything Else- Had company for supper, just finished up with the dishes- Safe turning

Working on restoring my family’s old dining room table. It's the closest thing I have to a family heirloom, my dad got it out of someone’s back yard when my folks first got married. It was pretty beat up, he sanded most of the marks out of the top, varnished it and put it to use. I got it from them last year, all the glue joints were coming loose and a piece or two missing. Cool old table, solid oak double drop leaf, made probably early 50’s by a company called A. Brandt. It was a line they produced called “Ranch Oak”. It was made to look like the pieces were rough cut out with a chisel.

I often need to cut or recut several small pieces way too small to hand hold and pass through the table saw. To accomplish this safely and cut several at once I take a length of straight flat board lay down a strip or two of double sided tape as needed and stick as many of the small pieces as possible to the straight board. I leave a couple of inches on the lead end and a couple of inches on the trailing end to make the entry and exit safer. I use this double sided tape it holds like super glue, this stuff www.amazon.com/dp/B07BBL4JXJ To get a release you can simply try to twist twist the pieces to shear the tape grip but if the pieces are small or delicate use some denatured alcohol on the tape it will release nice with just a little twist or prying up with a thin edge. Best to replace the tape for each run. The picture shows the setup calabrese55

Someone posted on a refinishing/repair forum that she had a table she'd like to repair. Of the 350 replies, over half recommend more sanding, belt sander, 40-60 grit, hand plane. Sure recipe for blowing thru the veneer. How do I know it's veneer? Look at the edge banding. Solid wood top would never look like that. Look at the grain pattern, it's not edge glued planks. Geez oh pete. Just for reference, strip with chemicals, apply oxalic acid bleach, sand lightly with about 220, and refinish.

Wife volunteered me to make her a craft table to replace the folding plastic one she was using. Looked around for some ideas and didn't find any plans I really liked so i borrowed from a few different ideas on Pinterest and winged it. This design as you go is time consuming and can get really really frustrating. All I bought was a sheet of oak ply and the hardware. Everything else came from current stock, cut offs, and scrap on hand. Started with a "basic" type frame for each side and just kept adding sides and shelves. Will just trim with 1 1/4 strips cut from scrap.

Hi all, I've got a mystery cast iron extension table 10"×7" wide with a simple miter channel that's the same width as the one on my Shopsmith band saw. There are two half inch rods spaced 7.25" apart that insert into the main table. I wish I could post a pic, but it's my 1st post. It's somewhat similar to the model 500 saw table extension except that the pivot mechanism is somewhat like the saw table mechanism with a lock lever. There are no maker's marks or tags, just the part number 502995 on the the table underside. It green or bluish-grey in color, I think. Thanks to anyone who can help me identify this accessory piece.

When I bought my little laser engraver, I didn't really think things thru about how/where I was going to use it. Setting up to engrave different turnings is a challenge. Partly because the laser's working area is pretty small and partly because of the limited focus distance. I mounted the laser on a sub-base so I could clamp it to keep it stationary, but focus adjustments were challenging. Eventually I mounted the laser on my bench drill press. Using the drill press table height adjustment, the box I made for the laser storage and scraps of wood I could get the settings pretty close. Making the critical last focus adjustments meant trying to reach around the setup and tweaking the drill press table crank- a real pain because of the location. I thought if I could make an adjustable, axillary table with a more easily accessibly adjustment control; then I could set the drill press table to a height close to what I need. Then use the axillary table for the precise location. In hind sight, I would have saved a lot of wasted materials had I drawn this in Sketchup first. The "scissor lift" mechanism is the second version (first version seen in the pieces above/left in first picture). Fortunately, all the materials came from scraps and hardware already in the shop. Without the table and lead screw- 4 angles From the top- Works pretty good. Haven't set up the laser yet to actually do engraving. The lead screw is 1/4 x 20 all thread.

So maybe two years ago I promised my wife a side table. Finally got started. Had a big piece of mahogany for the sides and face frame. Using ply for the bottom of drawer box. using rabbit joints for the bottom and sides. Then Rabbited the face frame for tight fit. Used pocket screws to join frame. Before assembly I needed filler strips for the drawer slides so used some 1/2 inch scrape for those. Time for a test fit. So now time for glue and clamps

So wife asked me last week to make her a coffee table. On the way to my grandson soccer game we stopped by Woodcraft and found a 52x13 Sirari slab that she liked. It is Sirari. Never worked with this type before. This project will let me learn how to epoxy fill worm holes and work with live edge. Should be fun….

I made a glue up of purple Hart & YellowHart about inch & half square. I cut the end into a pyramid on my table saw then turned it on my lathe. I cut it very slowly with a fine blade. Then moved it to lathe for final turning
