I'll bet a lot of us enjoy these little projects.

Here's my latest.   It's oak on the bottom, locust on the upright.  I'd like to see yours, too!

No one else? Chris this is in the same (sort of) vein ... Large lay out square.

Nice work gents. Both are on my list. Even just as a wall hanger, a layout square looks so gosh darn
old school "serious" wood worker!

Are the joints in the layout square lap joints?

Phil

They are half-lap joints.

Here is Chris Schwarz's version:  https://www.popularwoodworking.com/proje...-square-2/

I've been meaning to finish one more oak+locust square, but I got distracted with the offcuts.
The inlay was done with my LV cutting-gauge.   I don't have a use for this new panel, other than liking it!
