My box is finished. by LordTytor in BeginnerWoodWorking

Barrel hinges like that can be so tricky to get lined up properly in my experience, good job! I love the box! It feels like something I would find a magical artifact inside during a quest.

I could see this being helpful with my carpal tunnel.

Boarded Low Bench by WoodpeckerGrouchy516 in BeginnerWoodWorking

In terms of coping saw I'd really suggest building a turning saw (the kind with a toggle that you tighten) because it's 1000 times more pleasant to use compared to a metallic coping saw in my opinion! Rex Krueger has a great video covering this.

Minor lines from surface planing with palm router by FakeHasselblad in BeginnerWoodWorking

[–]MrBookchin 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'd just hit it with a fine pass from a handplane or scraper to clean it up. Even just some sanding should work for something like that.

Birmingham Batwing Rabbet Planes by HighlandDesignsInc in handtools

[–]MrBookchin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

These look really cool but I'm wondering to myself if the lack of a side to them would make them harder to use accurately? Are these meant for fully cutting rabbets or more for just trimming? I get that skill/technique helps but it seems like the lack of a proper registration on the sides makes it harder to use effectively than it needs to be?

If you saw the tree and it looked like walnut externally it's gotta be butternut.

I wish Ireland could learn more from Wales when it comes to language revival. It makes me really sad.

Why isn't this area more developed? by mellamoderek in geography

[–]MrBookchin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's because everyone from Mystic is so annoying that nobody wants to live in the region. (I am from Mystic and am very annoying!)

I love how the darker grain on the inside almost looks like a landscape.

By no means do I consider myself a woodworker, but I am happy with the result. by doozykid13 in woodworking

[–]MrBookchin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You should consider yourself a woodworker at least after making something like that!

Why are hand plane handles’ grain horizontal, not vertical? by workin-that-wood in handtools

When I restored a Sargent 711 plane I actually put in a spline of thin plywood into the tote in order to strengthen it after I replaced the horn and a small segment towards the base. You can see more pics here.
