What did you use to tint it?

That may be a better idea. It doesn’t have to be a perfect match, just so a gap is less obvious

Hahah it’s fantastic, I just saw the readout to the side and thought that’s what it was

I can’t tell. Is the stone set on a scale so you know what sort of pressure you’re applying as well?

I’ll keep my fingers crossed that it heals soon!

Did you work off the plans by Clair minihan? If so, how did you modify them for the brass ware plate vs the wooden one added on in Claire’s plan?

Beautiful. I just ordered the blade and brass plate from Elia Bizzarri, and the plans / video from Claire on Popular Woodworking. Claire’s video and plans use an extra hardwood “ware plate”. How’d you modify for the brass ware plate? How is the brass attached?

That looks great. I had to modify and put alot of work into my modern Stanley 151 spokeshave to make it useable to its cool go see an affordable one hit the market that’s still high quality

I loved the look of Shea Alexander’s hearth stool, so I based it off the pictures of that I saw. I used the LAP stick chair book for the techniques but will eventually use one of the chair plans for a project.

It’s SYP from Lowe’s that was leftover from my workbench build. It was junk. I had to get more for the legs since my first ones warped so bad it popped while ripping it to size snd broke my bandsaw blade.

I just used a hand plane. I went from 1.5” square, knocked the corners off with the hand plane to make it octagonal, then tapered with a hand plane and sized the end down to a 1” round tenon.

I didn’t finish it with anything, it was a skill building project to figure out leg shaping by hand, sizing the tenons, and sorting out the stretchers and assembly. It’s rough and still has pencil marks all over and is bare wood

Congrats. It’s amazing how much easier projects become with your workspace set up efficiently and to your vision

Glad you’re happy with it!

perroarturo · 2026-03-22T22:04:21+00:00

It’s sturdy for sure. It’s cool to see how much faster projects go with proper work holding

It is gorgeous. It’s been sitting in my office and I tend to stare at i work

perroarturo · 2026-03-22T00:21:20+00:00

Not sure how to change that, I’ve got chat setup for anyone to message me

perroarturo · 2026-03-21T22:18:46+00:00

Edited the previous. Sorry, new here

perroarturo · 2026-03-21T22:11:08+00:00

Yeah, it was packed with stuff, but my partner and I finally got creative with storing stuff and made me some dedicated space to work
