Nice work, Joe, and welcome! My bench is similar, but with a slightly thinner and larger top.

Jay,

Thanks. Mounting the motor differently is probably the next step. I considered it while building this rig - even unbolted the motor from the base - but didn't feel like I had put enough...

First, let me say that this is not my design. It's clearly a take off on the Phil Thien's baffle, but it's not exactly like Phil's either. After much internal debate and external search, I settled...

Thanks, guys. A couple of thoughts...

Keith, you're right. After attaching the legs, my first thought was "three would have been better". It may not be evident from the photos, but the attachment...

I've wanted to give turning a try, but didn't want to spend a wad of cash not knowing if I would enjoy using a lathe. I've had my eye on a very cost effective, but low quality "Tool Shop" lathe at my...

George,

I'm a leg man! I absolutely love the gentle slope at the bottom of the legs. Aside from the beautiful spalting, I think your detail on those legs make the piece.

Greg,

Nice work! Cherry on the clocks? Where did you find those clock faces?

Thanks, Marshall

I had one request for a cutting board from my Sister-in-law. That one board somehow morphed into five boards - one for each of my and my wife's siblings for Christmas. Each board contains some...

I decided to turn a bunch of scraps into something useful and ended up with a set or toy blocks for my brother's kids - 67 pcs. That was the easy part. I spent way more time on the storage box for...

You got skills, man! This is your first furniture project!?!? Liar, liar, pants on fire! You built my dream dinning table on your first try; you have every right to feel gratified.

Now, how...

Nice work, Craig. Not up my alley either, but taste has nothing to do with beauty, quality, and skill. Nice work in the grain mataching across those drawer fronts, too. It's details like that that...

Flippin' Sweet!!!

I was in Santa Claus, Indiana in June. Home to Holiday World Amusement Park - awsome park! Also been to French Lick, IN. There's also Loogootee, IN.

Thanks, Ernie. From my musical training I know that being a piano technitian is a trade/craft that takes years of experience and fine tuning of the ear to be any good at. Very similar to actually...

That's pretty sweet! Curiosity is killing this cat! So, a few questions...

Did you string and tune the harpsichord yourself?
There have to be "classic" dimension for a piece like that. Did...

Wow! Exceptionally nice! Couple of questions...

Is that cherry? And, how thick is your top? Looks to be around 3/4".

Thanks for sharing, Hans!

Lee,

I actually found your questions quite enthralling!:D

Thanks guys. It's gratifying to know that I, in fact, do suck!

...and Dave, all you need to do now is get her to allow your next shoulder mount to be placed above your bed! For some reason, my...

I’ve been planning my build of a router station for months. This is the result. It’s patterned after Norm’s, but I didn’t purchase the plans – just watched the show a few times and then designed my...

Malcolm,

Like your project, my built-in pictured below sits directly on top of a floor register. I didn't bother with any special ducting. I simply built the 'platform' that the cabinet sits on...

Very nice, Rick! Those sure would look nice on my carry .45 - Springfield V10 Officer's Model. I've always thought I'd like to try making grips one day. Can you decsribe a little about how you did...

Dave,

This is excellent! I can't believe how manageable you make this process look - lots of practice, I'm sure.

Out of curiosity, how long (in days or hours) have you spent on this piece...

That's beautiful! Make sure and post new pictures once you have the finish on.

Kevin,

Rather than the catridge mask, which will work, I prefer the N95 dusk mask (usually the one with the one way valve on the front). I find the caterage mask too balky and a bit more...
