Woodworking Inspiration 8-14-17
Woodworking inspuration from around the internet. these are a few videos that I have drawn inspuration for my own hand tool woodworking and design.
Making a Tool Box With My Daughter
my daughter (7 years old) made a tool box with all hand tools including the carving on the front in red oak. This was a great woodworking project to do with kids and teach about tools and how to use them. it includes how to use a hand saw, Howto use a Brace and bit, How-to use a hand plane and other hand tool skills.if a 7-year-old can carve and build this tool box so can you and your kid!
How to Inlay a Bow Tie or Butterfly in Woodwork by Hand
Whether you call it a Bowtie, a Butterfly or a dutchman (or many other names) it still does the same work to stabilize a crack in the woodwork or just to look good. this is a simple task that a lot of op people over think and it can take far less time than you think.
How to Make a Router Plane
A router plane is an easy tool to make, and it was one of the first that I made. In this video, I go over how to make a router plane out of some scrap Cherry and some Eye Bolts. This is a quick Hand tool Woodworking project that most anyone can do, and the results can change a shop! With little more than a Brace, Bit and Chisel you can make one too.
Curved Seat for Photographers
A photographer friend of mine asked me to make one of these for her photo studio. It is a bit different from what I normally like to do, and as much as I dislike panted finishes I an mot a man to turn away a challenge. I learned a few things along the way and hope to share those with you here.
