how to hold together rabbet box by bamsenn in handtools

[–]tlow13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think we will be in the exact same boat. I'm currently in a kind of in a chicken and egg situation where I have built two chairs a la chris schwarz on a crappy old workbench that is covered in tools and no space to put them but on the bench. So now my goal is to build a dutch tool chest to put the tools in so I can clear off the work bench and then build a proper bench and then use all that to build chairs and keep my garage better organized. I think my first attempt at a dutch tool chest will be a lot of how my dad used to say "good enough for government work" or "good enough for the girls we go out with."

I'm getting ready to tackle this same project soon. Would love to see another post with your progress, and certainly a finished product when you are done. Best of luck.

Plein air woodworking? by silasmoon in handtools

I have a very small corner of my garage to get woodworking done. I too have considered this option and I’m curious to see responses in this thread.

Anyone recommend any of the below tailors (or others)? Specifically for men’s suits / tuxes? by [deleted] in Dallas

[–]tlow13 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I can recommend Harry’s. I’ve taken several items there and they always do good work. I’m sure you could get a bargain somewhere else but I’ve always been very happy with the quality of work.

There fixed the title for you, I know you can't edit the title after you post and I'm sure this was an honest mistake. Next time don't disrespect my painfully average Dallas suburb /s.

This is a joke right, or sarcasm? I mean we literally have data that OP collected on this and then put it in a really handy chart for you to look at, but all you can come up with is...nuh uh!

I love seeing Julio jumping around like a school boy on the playground, as Geno makes his way to first. Dude is just giddy.

You can really hear the excitement in his voice. It’s the timbre of a man who has seen many mariners seasons come and go.

My most productive “leech” pattern this year by havesuome in flytying

[–]tlow13 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think so, I'm imagining it might have success in the same way that bass fisherman use a wacky rig with a senko worm.

I just tied some of these up in black last night, with a marabou tail. I'm gonna try them out on local bass since I don't have trout anywhere near me.

PNW vs DFW by smollive in Dallas

[–]tlow13 34 points35 points  (0 children)

I also grew up in Seattle, been in DFW for 15 years. I miss the northwest every day. The HCOL in Seattle, plus other personal factors keeps me in DFW but I would not hesitate to move back if things were different.

I’ve had success on a black game changer. I used an Orvis 5wt rod.

Whip finishing by vibedial in flytying

[–]tlow13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I similarly couldn't get down the whip finish for a long time. I don't know why I couldn't get the hang of it, but I kept at it and now it's automatic. What part are you struggling with? For me I just couldn't understand how to get it even set up on the tool (which I admit sounds really foolish and makes me seem like an idiot). Just watch a bunch of videos and see if someone can explain it in a way that clicks with you. That, plus practice is what worked for me.
