All Things Woodworking

[Bugzilla]

I can't say that it doesn't look nice.
Now show us what you make with it.

Just to make sure everything worked, made the item on the left. Now to figure out what to do with it!

Finished the chalice, ciborium and paten. First picture as finished, second after several coats of tung oil.

Made mom and dad a nice garden bench for M&F day. Nothing fancy but heavy so it won’t blow over.

Have you tried sand shading on marquetry?

Yes during a class I took but do not want to mess with the setup and if you screw up a piece can be a pain to replicate it exactly.

Thanks guys!
The eagle and flag was actually the easier of the 2, probably have almost 40 hours in the bottom eagle (10 of those redoing screw ups ).

It wouldn’t be any fun if you didn’t screw something up

I've spend countless hours on a scroll saw, and some of my favorite projects were the stacked ones, similar to your flag/eagle.
The worst is, when almost complete with a 60 hour cut, and a piece snaps off. I spent a lot of hours fixing too, so I feel your pain.

I started drawing my own designs, since I wanted specific ones, and customers wanted something personal.

Some woodwork, some glass work.

Installed these today.

My home was designed in 1912, but built in 1995. My wife found some windows from 1910, so they are 103 years old. I had to reglaze the windows but the glass is all intact, despite it age, it is all unbroken and original. I modified the wood frames and fit them into my window frames, which are slightly larger than the windows, so it looks like they have extra thick frames. The interior trim in my home is poplar and cherry. I added some polar trim to the original window frames to fit them into my existing frames.

7 windows installed today in total. 2 in my living room, 3 in our foyer, 1 each in a bathroom and our laundry room, all of which face the street.

Not quite finished with our new library wall. Started this months ago. Should be done by Thanksgiving.

This is all cherry.

Carpet needs to be redone. We have a remake of an original William Morris design rug that matches the colors of the mural that we inset into the book cases. That will go down into the area. To give you an ideal of the scale, that mural is 9' wide, full width is just under 16'.

Very impressive work gentlemen.

I’ll give it a few years before I post any of my work.

That is fantastic! Did you design that yourself or buy a set of plans? I have a grandson that would love to make that for his 4H woods project.

Lots of free plans on the internet, that is one I modified. This is the same one made closer to the plans. Plans came from here: https://www.stevedgood.com/catalog/
