Any problems with wood movement with the solid top glued on like that?

My CNC machine is down. Can someone cut these jewelry box trays and have them sent to me by the 22nd? I'll gladly pay for them.

It will take a 6" x 18" piece of 4/4 cherry.


I'll send the...

I thought about that. I'm just afraid it would be the type of thing that would look cheap and bother me over time.

Who makes a 28" wide cast iron router table extension for a Powermatic 66 these days? All the ones I can find are 27" wide.

I saw a post from about 10 years ago about a company called Quality...

Nicely done. I'm glad to see I'm not the only one that has taken 4 years to finish a project.

Thanks, putting cornice returns on the drawer fronts is the only part of the design I can take credit for. The rest of the design is not mine. I could have attached the returns to the dresser and...

My new daughter is about to turn 4 soon and I finally finished this dresser that I started building for her back before she was born. I built it to match this curly maple crib that I posted back in...

I built this barn. Its 20' x 30'. My dad helped me put the metal on the roof. I did the rest of the work myself.

Looks good. The dovetails look like they came out great. I thought the rifle rack in the background was kinda funny. Every kid's room needs one of those!

How does it sound?

Tom,

I used a shop built base similar to this one to center the mortises:

You set it down so that the two pegs straddle the board and apply a little twisting pressure and it...

It snowed 6" in Dallas on Friday morning, but that didn't scare McKenzie any, she decided it was time to come anyway. It made for...

Looks good. What kind of CNC machine did you build?

Very Impressive! I also really like the legs and the lumber. Its not something you usually see in the furniture stores. I would be proud to have that in my living room.

So the cook top is on the island? Is there any type of vent hood above it?

I can believe it was a time consuming project. I read up on concrete countertops once and decided it was way more work...

That looks very nice! Did your wife know you were building it or was it a surprise? It looks like you were busy getting ready for Christmas this year!

How come you're going to use painted poplar? To save money or because you really want it to be white? How long do you plan on living in this house? I'd say if you're going to put your blood,...

James, the lumber I ordered for the dresser showed up a day early today. I'm pretty impressed with the figure. I would definitely say its a notch up from the lumber I used on the crib. I asked...

Shawn, I built it so that we can put long rails between the head board and foot board to make it a full size bed. So hopfully she'll want to use it until she goes to college and we'll get to keep it...

Jeff, I think its the red leaf, or soft maple. I got that batch of lumber from a guy on Craigs List.

I just ordered another batch of heavily figured curly maple from www.crlumber.com for a...

That is one handsome workbench! I really like the contrasting colors. I would love to build a nice workbench like that some day, but I don't think I would build it that nice. I just don't think I...

Thank you.

Thanks for your 2 cents man.

There's also the possibility that our whole family could get killed in a nasty car accident, but we're not going to not drive. We used this same type of setup with our other daughter and I never...

Curtis, they fit right into the mortises. I cut them a little bit oversized and then sanded the ends of each one down so that they fit nice and tight in the mortises and didn't have any sloppy gaps....
