RE: another build thread... - bandit571 - 01-18-2018 Roh-kay....I leaned this thing back, to where I could work on it a bit. Wanted to remove a few "high spots" [attachment=7344] Best and quickest way to trim a few plugs.. [attachment=7345] Bevel down chisel, and something to "tap" it with.....then sand things down......and apply the seal coat.. [attachment=7346] Moved things around a bit, and worked on one side, until it,too, gets a seal coat.. [attachment=7347] Let this sit awhile, before I can turn it around, and do the last side. Still have to figure out which edge treatment to use.. [attachment=7348] A roundover, or a cove? Stay tuned...

Wanted to remove a few "high spots" Aren't those hard to use in your 45? RE: another build thread... - bandit571 - 01-18-2018 Yep, they be a tad too short..... RE: another build thread... - Tynyyn - 01-19-2018 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=np0CI4nhgzY Have you seen Mr. Chickadees new vid? It reminds me of your newest piece. Uses the same type of tools and workmanship. Good stuff, Bandit. Please keep the projects coming. I like tagging along. RE: another build thread... - bandit571 - 01-19-2018 Cashed in a bunch of cans today, about 17 pounds worth. Between that, and the pocket change I had.... [attachment=7381] I was able to come home with 15bf of quarter sawn Ash.....$12.35 total... [attachment=7382] Since it came from the same tree as the last load. 4/4 x 6" x 5' ( one he sawed not quite in the middle....)6 planks. Figured that and what was in the shop should be enough to build a bookcase, with a paneled door. I did set up a machine, today.....as the Stanley 45 doesn't do coves around a corner, too well.. [attachment=7383] So a Craftsman was set up.. [attachment=7384] To make the cove. Will need to rearrange my bench... [attachment=7385] It is in there, somewhere, last I looked Then, after the new planks are warmed up, I can start on the Bookcase unit. Looking like I MIGHT get a raised panel door like the bottom unit has. Stay tuned... RE: another build thread... - Rick Barton - 01-19-2018 Wait, there's a bench in there? Nice job on the corner, its looking good. RE: another build thread... - Tynyyn - 01-19-2018 With all the hand tools laying around you had to break out the router for some corners? What about a rasp or round file????? The manual wood working gods will not be happy. But I'm throwing peanuts from the gallery so take what I recommend with a grain of salt. RE: another build thread... - bandit571 - 01-20-2018 Hauled one plank to the shop, this morning. Crosscut it for length. Saved to cut-off to add to a couple shelves, later. Ripped the plank down the center.....kind of a wavy-arsed cut. ...clamped one part in the leg vise, and got out the Jointer.. [attachment=7403] Jointed both edges, and then jointed the matching( almost ) edges on the wide board.. [attachment=7404] Once the gaps were gone, I spread a bit of glue, and added a few clamps.. [attachment=7405] And set this one aside. Then repeat for the other parts.... [attachment=7406] Joint the edges, spread some glue, and a few clamps.... [attachment=7407] Nice Cardio Workout, this morning? Need to figure the spacing for the book shelves, next, and see how many I need to make. I may get the top glued up, later...once the clamps are available, again. Once the shelves and top are done, and attached to these two sides, I can figure out how to build the door. Lunchtime, while waiting on glue to dry...stay tuned RE: another build thread... - bandit571 - 01-20-2018 Grabbed a book, about the size that will be going into the bookcase.....and laid out the spacing of the shelves.....wound up getting three shelves.. [attachment=7439] And cut three blanks. They will need an add-on, to get deep enough. At least, I can lay out for a sliding dovetail joint, to house each shelf.... [attachment=7440] There was some dried glue here and there.....I think I have the tool to scrape it away... [attachment=7441] Stanley SW #70.....push, or pull. Maybe tomorrow, I can get something actually done? Stay tuned RE: another build thread... - Rick Barton - 01-21-2018 So what was the book? |
