Love the attention to detail on the vices on that bench. I need to build a new bench soon...

You’ve reminded me - I must find some leather to line my vice jaw...

Fathers day gift. Traditional Japanese toolbox design in Beech, with walnut pegs and key, and a rippled sycamore lid (courtesy of Custard who very kindly gifted me the sycamore!). Danish oil and turpentine finish, with beeswax paste top coat.

I'm still at the "I can see all 74 errors" phase, but I do so love that locking peg design for the lid so I'm coping

I don't really make furniture, but for the people that gave me all those tools that I gave away recently, I made a pair of side tables...

Not exactly high class joinery -

A nine foot long bench seat, so hopefully assuming I can get up onto it in the first place I will be able to slide along it and work either side of it. I might yet cut it down an inch or two. Made from a nice clean scaffold board a neighbour scrounged for me and 4" x 2"s cut down from 5" x 2"s scrounged from a demolition site. If it doesn't work it's firewood.

Need to get in some dovetail practice before making the drawers for a cabinet I’ve been making, so made an over engineered toilet roll holder

I did learn that the chisels needed to be as sharp as possible as this spalted wood was very soft in areas.

And did a little bit of crude metal bashing by making the brackets from 1mm steel plate

 

[Phil Pascoe]

Pete, I had a pair Salter mills which are the same design. If you prise the little chrome buttons off you can replace the original knobs with nicely turned ones.

 

[Racers]

That's good to know, I had to strip them down when I bought them as they where originally red but some one had painted them green, badly!
Probably need to do them again as its started to chip.

You can find them on eBay for £90-100!

[yetloh]

Did you use a knurling tool for that or did you cut it with a v cutter?

Bench looks good,

I just picked up a similar vice which I am yet to fit. Any tips on how to clean up the vice or fitting a wooden incerts to The jaws would be really appreciated.

Thanks

Better safe than sorry when it comes to water closet matters.

Seriously, it looks amazing. =D>

made an over engineered toilet roll holder

That is by far the best bog roll holder I have ever seen

 

[Sawdust=manglitter]

Thanks both.

If you notice the slight groove to the top, the OH requested this in order to be able to stand up her phone/ipad! :lol:

The wood was a relatively short log of spalted birch, only about a foot long and about 8" diameter, originally earmarked as a turning blank, but decided to slice it up last year for a small project. Because of the short length of boards and random soft spots in the spalting it was all thicknessed by hand. It was a good practice piece anyhow

Girl’s doll’s school locker in beech, stained with Crimson Guitars "stunning stains shot" in purple (can you tell), with a top coat of gloss lacquer and a final polish of renaissance wax.

Very decorative, and I like your worktop layout that is a work of art as well.

Been on my knees for months it seems making a Gazebo base:

Just need to scribe in the sides and I am done.

Now to me, that looks "real classy". =D> =D>
