The Newport Mechanick: Pressing Business
http://thenewportmechanick.blogspot.com/2015/03/pressing-business.html
A blog about hand tool woodworking, tinsmithing, and coppersmithing. We strive to perpetuate old world craftsmanship with each piece that we create. Wednesday, March 11, 2015. Some jobs are clear priorities. One of those crossed my path this weekend. My wife and I sent the children upstairs to clean and neaten. Several trips later, all of the trash had been collected and we had a new candidate for the" Isle of Misfit Toys". A little closer to air-worthy. March 11, 2015 at 3:54 PM. Maybe your son could he...

Close Grain: Portable Workbench, part 3
http://www.closegrain.com/2010/09/portable-workbench-part-3.html
Woodworking in the digital age. Friday, September 3, 2010. Portable Workbench, part 3. Go back to part 2. Now that the workbench has been built, here's how to use it. Most people are more familiar with a bench that has some kind of built-in vise. Instead, this one uses a variety of simple work-holding methods. The dog holes and thick front skirt make it quite versatile. I highly recommend the Gramercy Tools holdfast. I also highly recommend the Veritas Wonder Dog. Ripping a piece to width, again with the...

Tool Chest-Tool Rack | Svantesson Woodworks
https://sswantee.wordpress.com/2015/03/08/tool-chest-tool-rack
Vintage Tools and Cabinetmaking. March 8, 2015. March 28, 2015. Slow progress I know…have been debating back and forth on the tool rack at the front of the chest. Have decided on a simple rack using some walnut scraps and pine strips. I cut some walnut and sketched a curve I was happy with, then cut a couple of notches on the top with my radial arm saw and dado blade to hold the pine strips:.

The Newport Mechanick: Necessity is the mother of invention (learning something new)
http://thenewportmechanick.blogspot.com/2015/04/necessity-is-mother-of-invention.html
A blog about hand tool woodworking, tinsmithing, and coppersmithing. We strive to perpetuate old world craftsmanship with each piece that we create. Monday, April 6, 2015. Necessity is the mother of invention (learning something new). I had mentioned last week that a new project had moved to the front of the line. Last night, after I finished up some work on another project, I got started. Some of the layers. Factory made and doweled together. Excess glue from a repair made by a previous owner. I'd like ...

Woodworking By Hand: Antique Oak
http://woodbyhand.blogspot.com/2012/07/antique-oak.html
A complete beginner's attempts to learn the traditional methods of Woodworking using only hand tools. Monday, 23 July 2012. A member of my girlfriends family discovered these pieces of very old Oak while clearing out his garden shed and kindly 'donated' them to me. Apparently, it was an antique chest of drawers that originated from the very house I now live in. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Quangsheng Vs Lie Nielsen Bench Planes.
