  1. After more delays than we've ever experienced (roof, mold, water leak) tomorrow we close on this 110 year old house. Let the demo begin!

  2. In all seriousness, there are a number of very critical safety protocols for extremely dangerous machinery (dismemberment, death, and all that) being violated in just this single thumbnail.

    Upon second review, tiny tank tops and short shorts are the weirdest woodworking gear I've ever seen publicized. WTF

    ‘I’m going to figure this out’: home ownership lessons from women who taught themselves

    Edit: If you come in here and try to tell me some trolling bullshit when I'm talking about critical safety, you will be blocked. Don't tell me you're a woodworker and then try to pull that bullshit. We don't think it's cute to let anyone get injured at all.

  3. * I need to seriously consider when I should use tiny brass screws (maybe never?)
    * hand cutting a French cleat is a hassle. There must be a better way.
    * piece is a little out of square. Normally I am ok with square enough but it made the door and other parts harder.
    * got paste wax inside the piece. Looks sloppy.
    * painting rough boards sucks. Should have used a bristle brush instead of a foam brush.

  4. I wanted to write an article about this tonight but some technology got in the way. Some initial critiques before I go to sleep:

    * I should have planned better for the location. I need to do modifications to make it fit.
    * I wish I’d used real glass instead of plexiglass
    * I wish I’d installed the glass the traditional way instead of coming up with my own (worse) way
    * there must be some door tricks I’m missing. Hinges plus inset door seems impossible to get right.

  5. The legs are done! Well... three sides of the legs look the same, like the left one. No, they're done! This right one will definitely be the back outside. Love it when the pieces pick where they need to be instead of me having to make a choice.

    Onto the bowtie on the bottom. Well... I have to redo it entirely because I reasoned through the grain orientation wrong. I aligned the grain of the maple bowtie when I needed to make it perpendicular to that of the walnut so during wood expansion it expands the other way and prevents the crack from growing.
    (╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻

    It's for the best, this was a bad fit but not the worst given that it was my first time doing inlay. I'll make a bigger bow tie tomorrow to cover it all. It'll be an absolute unit.

  6. Sadly cannot attach it to the wall because I discovered I do not have the appropriate masonry bit for the French cleat. Oh well #woodworking

  7. I hate sharpening. I managed to sharpen 3 chisels and my plane iron in about 6 hours.

    I need a better way to do this. I have water stones (220/800 and 4000/8000). They are messy, need constant flattening, and the edges of the wider blades take forever.

    How does everyone else do this?

    A teď jdu najít stůl, na kterej si dám nohy. 🥱

  9. All 5 legs assembled, planed, and cut to length.

    #woodworking

  10. Made a paper template for the rise legs and it was a pleasure to use my new marking knife. Good sharp tools make such a difference.

    Cut the legs out on the bandsaw, I need so much more practice. I don't have a template following router flush trim bit so the paper template was mostly helpful to not have to make complex measurements and marking twice. Going to take the slab to my friend's tomorrow for another round through the planer. I'm getting close!

  12. Tackling the bottom beam problems, one at a time. Started at the corner. Since the bottom of the dovetail was rotten, I chainsawed away a quarter of the beam and spliced in a new small beam from a convenient stash I found clearing out a crooked shack the other day.

    Everything got hosed down in nasty wood preserver, supported on the usual granite wedges with lime mortar and finally some very modern large caliber wood screws to connect it to the old beam and the adjoining corner.

    Some more granite wedges, moss in the gaps between beams, lime mortar on top to keep creatures out.

    Then it got very late because someone poured an entire cup of hot tea over themselves 😬

    My favourite is using flathead wood screws...

    ...I understand this was the 1950s
    ...and you had to set up a forge on site, to pour iron hardware on site from locally mined iron and coal, because the hardware store was 3 days horse ride and you had to forge two rivers.

    Trying to remove a flathead woodscrew with a driver is an opportunity to invent new swearwords.
