DIY Office Desk w/ Baltic Birch Top (ep72)
Many times in woodworking projects evolve. This a a good example of that. I wanted a “home” for my laptop and a more permanent place for it meant I needed to make a desk. I didn’t want to devote a ton of time into making it, as I have future plans to make something more […]
Making A Table | Curly Ambrosia Maple (ep71)
My friends Jay Bates and April Wilkerson were visiting so we could build some projects together. My son wanted an end table for an alarm clock so we figured we could come up with one for him. He likes bright colors so I choose to dye a piece of curly ambrosia maple to act as the centerpiece of […]
Wood Lathe Tools For Burning Rings (ep70)

I think it’s obvious I spend longer than I should online looking at things being made & created. These are some things along the way that I […]
Perfect Dados & Grooves – Simple Router Jig (ep68)
Cutting dados and grooves in wood can be tricky sometimes. Especially when you have 2 or more that need to be evenly spaced apart; even more so when the material you are using is big and rather cumbersome to be run across a dado blade on the table saw; or in my case, both. I had […]
How To Make A Spline And Tenon Jig (ep67)
Being able to make accurate tenons as well as structural splines for mitered joints was the reason behind this build.
