A short video I made of carving a set of kids building blocks with a 3040 CNC router. LNwwIlgdcf8 Col.

Does anyone have suggestions what sort or wood and finish might be suitable for making a trolley and set of building blocks for a 1 year old? I envisage carving letters and numbers on each face of the blocks and my main concerns would be to do with toxicity, durabilty, and how well they'd carve...

I only realised while I was eating them what a truly acquired taste marmite really is. My first reaction was "ooo... these are mild" but I was already eating them by then and you wanted the FULL review so here it is; "WTF?" he thought as he eyed up the suspiciously familiar logo on the...

Something I just found on youtube that raised a smile. Probably not too difficult to replicate with a scroll saw. bD_EKzmoFgM Col.

Not all done on the scroll saw by any means but hopefully still of interest. It's a 12th scale replica of our park home made as a gift for our 9 year old great grand daughter. 5XeWKJLBsQE I'll be making another clip of it shortly with all the furniture in. Col.

if found carved into a table leg, for example. Col.

I'm after enough square hardwood stock to make a set of table legs but not one of the local firms I've found are able to supply it. Ideally 4 identical pieces of rough sawn stock each one being 32" long and anywhere between 3" and 4" square. Delivery to South Cumbria would also be a massive...

I've just bought a router from uktoolcentre.co.uk for £124.50 including VAT and I'm mightly p*ssed to have just got an email saying it's cleared UK cutoms where it's been sat for the last 3 days. Given that the purchase price clearly stated "Inc VAT" an extra 3 days delivery time from a UK web...

I wasn't sure whether to post this in here but what the heck, even though it's not a traditional scroll saw project it does feature several scroll sawn items that might offer someone a distraction from the upcoming more seasonal patterns. ;-) Darryl's Magnetic Marble Machine:- gBeCHEw5F_Y

I've just started putting a small diy router lathe together from a set of plans I drew up in sketcup if anyone's interested in seeing few photos of the build. http://www.seafax.co.uk/index.php?id=router-lathe - my forthcoming web page about it kfSScCSpbpA...

Probably not the sort of video you want to watch with your mouthfull of early morning coffee. :-) _ENqg-jX-6s

I've almost finished cutting out all the parts for what I'm calling "an Admiral's Clock", which in addition to a normal clock will also feature a storm glass in the right hand tower, a galileo thermometer in the left, a moon phase clock (bottom left) and a tide clock (bottom right). I also have...

Having only just recently aquired an interest in guitar making I was shocked to find out how little of it there is left in the world. If you aren't already aware of this video I can highly recommend it. Taylor Guitars "The State of Ebony" - Bob Taylor Video...

With a littel bit of luck if everyone adds links to their favourite wood supplier we could build up a pretty comprehensive list here. I have a semi-heirloom type project on at the mo (a clock) that calls for quite a bit of 6mm and 3mm timber and I've gone with 6mm marine ply and 3mm Superior...

I first came across this idea a couple of years ago (see http://lumberjocks.com/projects/53294 and http://lumberjocks.com/Leldon/blog/25317) but the plans mentioned in the blog appear to have disapeared so reverse-engineering how it was made I've come up with a design of my own. NB. This...

Does anyone know of any companies around W. Yorks who specialise in clearing out woodworking shops? I have a garage full of hobbyist machines I need to get rid of and don't particularly want to try selling it all one item at a time. col.

A natural edge wall clock cut from Hawthorn for my grandaughter. There's also a 30 minute video documenting the making of it if anyone's interested. SM6xFVALUq8 Col.

Try making one of these, it's astounding on so many levels! https://www.facebook.com/video.php?v=10151339266221823 Col.

From the days when men were men and women were grateful. A remarkable youtube upload well worth a watch for anyone interested in wood. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=knTYjI66Yzw Col.

Free multi-options mini sawmill plans I'm just finishing off. Featuring 3 versions of mini sawmills each of which uses the same basic 25mm x 25mm steel hollow box section frame and can mill logs in excess of 12" diameter. In the plans the frame is mostly bolted together for the simple reason...
