What does this mean? Does this mean you create from scratch something from nothing? Does this mean you copy other creations? In my opinion… It’s creating and building it in dreams or thoughts. I often build tables from what I think and apply it to wood. Sometimes it’s too hard and II eliminate it from from thought. Sometimes I lose interest and walk away. Sometimes I’ve built to pay bills and sometimes I build to challenge my dreams. I spend many of hours tossing in bed over ideas.

Anyone know of good woodworking stuff to see while there? I would love to get up to Liberty ME & visit the huge antique tool store, but it won't fit in this trip.

I checked Lee Valley ad it was the strangest collection of stuff I've ever seen them offer, not much elsewhere either. Anyone find anything worthy? I don't need anything, but I'm always looking for deals.

Thought this one looked like something out of a star trek episode so named it the alien due to its organic shape specifically related to the finial. The hollow form is Cedar with turquoise inlay in the cracked and small voids. The headpiece or Finial is made of Bradford Pear and has turquoise inlay as well in a concentric pattern on each side which was all turned and hand carved. Size including the finial is around 14.5"x9.5". Hope you enjoy as much as I did making it.

Winter is coming which is our time here in the desert to start our shooting season. This year we will be doing the 1000 and 1500 yard milk jug challenge. I decided this year to make some ammo boxes as presents to my shooting buddy using scraps from the bin. They are walnut and maple. I used the Shaper Origin to make the actual block and holes which worked pretty well. Paul

I've been thinking about purchasing a book or videos on woodworking projects and would like to get some feedback on this woodworking package of plans and DVD's. I know there's free stuff on the web but the discount they're running appears to be good deal for 16,000 plans. I'm recently retired without any specific project in mind but the fact that everything's together for me to look through seems to be a good idea.

Well, wife has been wanting me to build her a cedar/blanket chest for 5 years now - but it always seemed to be put on the back burner. Recently the church asked me to make another set of cabinets and a bookcase, but before I set out on that project, I knew I needed to get her project done. Actually I was able to work on both projects at the same time. I always start my projects with a Google Sketchup rendition - I need plans!!! Those of you that can build stuff without plans I applaud you! You will notice what looks like a stick on the left - originally wife wanted a clothes rack incorporated into the cedar chest - we have a free standing one in our closet now - this would replace it. She decided against it - I told her it could be easily added later. Once I create the plan - I make a copy and "EXPLODE" the pieces to I have a general idea how to cut the pieces. Then I proceed to cut and label all the pieces. Here is a series of dry fits - for some reason the dual 22.5 degree angles on the front caused me some issues - not sure why - really not a big deal! Started adding molding/trim to mimic our bedroom set (hence the angled front corners) Lined the inside with cedar And the finished product - prior to staining and polying. We had extra drawer handles from our bedroom set - so I added them to make what look like drawers, but they are not. Putting on bottom trim - you can NEVER have enough clamps - LOL

OK as a lot of you may know, I am a huge fan of Titebond and its family of glues. I use it quite a bit when I am making pieces to turn, especially for the tops I make. This does not require a lot of glue though, so the glue sits around for an extended period of time, which causes it to age and get clumpy, or at the very least, thicker than it was when I bought it. Can you add anything to the glue like say water, to get it flowing again without destroying the glue properties?? Thanks.

So just to get a little chatter going and I haven't ask one of these in a while, I thought today would be a good time. When you are doing or planning a woodworking project, what is your favorite part of the project? 1. Drawing a scale drawing 2. Building a prototype 3. Dimensioning the material 4. Layout 5. Joinery 6. Assembly 7. Sanding 8. Staining or finishing 9. Just seeing the end results!
