Since a TIA episode. Got a no-name saw and put it to work, slowly
306954
Had some thin stock left over from amother project. Trying to figure out dovetails on these.
306955
might be almost figured out?

As for the project?
306956
Some sort of rack?
306957
Ah, a Spice rack. Re-purposed knobs for feet, no less. Nothing real fancy, just a way to keep from being BORED.

Steven,

Glad it was transit.

BTW, good to see a shop almost as messy as mine :-).

Take care,

ken

Hope you are doing better.

Having a TIA is what finally got me to throw out my tobacco and never smoke another cigarette.

Feeling a bit floaty, but improving a bit. Less scattered brained..
As for the easy project

Each set of dovetails seemed to get a little better. Dug out a little better saw, too
307132
On the left, that No-Name saw, on the right, a Sheffield "Crown" Gents saw. The Crown seemed to do a little bit better, seeings how it hasn't been used yet. NEW IN THE BOX SAW!

Used a Wards 78 to make a rebate around the bottom edge of a plywood bottom
307133
Just put the sides together without any glue, then nailed the bottom on. Nothing real fancy, as this will just hold tools as needed
307134
Just a box. Might try and find a place for it in one of the tool chests....
