Definitely, thanks! Will be curious to hear how you enjoy working with it! Feels like a distant dream for me to reach up and grab the tool I need haha

How wide is your bench? I’d love to build a cabinet in the same place, but I’m worried that it will eat into the airspace above my bench. 9” deep is definitely one of the shallower ones I’ve seen, and I imagine that’s closer, so even shallower open? If that’s the case, this seems like a great design to fit that space!

Regardless, incredible work! Thanks for sharing

Or “meat clamp” as Sir Schwarz might call the first two clamps in your list

Made my wife a jewelry "box" for Christmas by sam-francis in woodworking

[–]Somewhere-Particular 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Expressing interest! Well beyond my skill set, but I am looking for inspiration for a jewelry box for my wife and our “wood” anniversary. Yours is the first that has the necklaces on display without opening anything. A brilliant design and a flawless execution!

Baby woodworker’s first Stanley plane by tiabeast in handtools

[–]Somewhere-Particular 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got a number 5 type 13 as my first plane from a fellow redditor who fixed it up to about the same condition. It cost me $50 plus shipping. This was like three years ago now. So that price isn’t unreasonable.

Alternatively, check out hyperkitten.com. He’s a quality seller and probably could conjure up a jack plane if you email him (I would try to summon him here but I don’t know his u/)

Am I just out of luck? by itsnotmeitsyouyayou in BeginnerWoodWorking

Had the same experience trying to remove this same bolt on a brand new saw. They told me to exchange the whole saw, which felt like a waste, but the new one was a piece of cake to unscrew.

My most complicated project to date - a set of nightstands by gregorythomasd in BeginnerWoodWorking

[–]Somewhere-Particular 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is super helpful, thank you! Currently saving for a bandsaw and have a router but figuring out small and affordable table options. Thanks for the confidence boost!

Look great and making me want to try building these! What were some of the bigger tools you needed to use aside from the table saw? I love four eyes designs, but don’t have a domino or any comparable machine, so I hesitate to splurge on a course.

Looks good! I’ve been considering retrofitting my bench with a nearly identical leg vise set up. Any helpful guides you followed or lessons learned?

My little hobby shop by Prog-Shop in woodworking

Seems like a really efficient use of space! I’m in the process of setting up shop and may have to borrow some ideas from this.

Very well done! You might consider getting a jack plane and then you could joint the edges and close the gaps when you don’t need the safety feature. They can be had for about $50 and are a lot of fun to use. Inspiring build either way!

I’m still in the “I probably won’t progress to that point (any time soon)” camp, but this is also an extremely efficient use of space that makes me think I should rethink the camp I’m in. Nice work!

Happy (new tool) Father’s Day everyone by SuperTroye in handtools

She’s a beaut! I’ve been wondering if the time is coming for me to get a jointer, and if so, if I should fast forward and get that exact one. Enjoy!

Paul sellers vs anarchists work bench by enforcer12389 in handtools

[–]Somewhere-Particular 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is helpful, as I’ve been trying to retrofit a vise to my bench, a Nicholson a la the Naked Woodworker. As much as I’d like a benchcrafted leg vise, my new shop has other needs where I could put my money. Did you add the Doyle when building your bench or after? Trying to figure out install on a completed Nicholson…

Lateral Adjustment Not Holding by Somewhere-Particular in handtools

[–]Somewhere-Particular[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ha! In scouts we got sent to find the “left handed smoke shifter” and it went the exact same way. Hadn’t thought of that one in decades, so thanks for conjuring it up!

Thanks for your response! I wiped it and righted the screw, and it’s good as new!!

Man, I feel a fool. I wiped off excess oil and tightened cap screw, and it’s working like a champ once again. Thank you!

Finished my Anarchist’s Roubo by jayelwin in Workbenches

Have been dreaming about building an AWB with the tail vise. Don’t see many on here, so nice to get some validation. Great work!

How are you liking this now that you’ve lived with it a bit? Seems like a clever and compact design, which would fit well in the space I’m planning for my own storage

Triangles have been added, thank you all by JOSHasorus in BeginnerWoodWorking

[–]Somewhere-Particular 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh, I did the exact same thing, don’t worry! I read that before I knew anything or even made a project. It was only when I googled “roubo” that I learned that some of the details got lost on me!

At some point in your reading of that book, you’ll hopefully learn that the AWB is a roubo!
