C'est la guerre, Douglas :wink: - Rob

Nice one Jim...and Alfie. Once again a demonstration of the genuine friendliness and outright generosity of the membership of UKWorkshop =D> - Rob

I noticed that on the walnut dovetails as well that the line had been overshot in one or two places? - Rob

Yep...those are the ones, not as Mark posted :lol: The mock up is actually one of the sides, with the two styles at each side set at 45deg to both the back panel and side - Rob

Everbuild D4 is the stuff. Fully waterproof, quick setting...and cheap!...I pay less than a fiver for a litre - Rob

I finished this little box some time ago now but it's always irritated me :twisted: :twisted: as I didn't spend enough time on sanding it (there were score marks in the top :oops: ) and the applied finish didn't look right. I stripped of the original finish (Osmo-PolyX) which I do like, but...

I'm getting hold of a blade for a little play, but the steel does appear rather impressive, specially if you have a delve on the website - Rob

Interesting to read your comments on the pics B. I could see what you were saying about each pic when I went back for a second, more objective look at them. What you've said about each does make sense (to me at least, as a non-fotographizer) - Rob

I hope to find out very shortly :wink: - Rob

I agree about the 'drawers' as opposed to 'draws'...but composted :shock: :lol: :lol: - Rob

Welcome and I echo what John has said, but from nattering to someone over the weekend, it appears that the funding for evening classes may well have disappeared as well. It might be different in Londres but the traditional evening classes (and I used to run two a week) that happened in many...

Following one from Dougless's walnut box on the General Woodwork forum, I've just been waiting for the wood to finish it's second conditioning in the 'shop before I start construction, having been machined oversize a couple of months ago. Once it's ready, it'll be skimmed through the p/t to...

Making boxes like this is a real challenge and not one to be sneezed at. The workmanship HAS to be faultless all round and the choice of timbers is right up my street...English Walnut and ebony is hard to beat. Modern decent hinges (either from Ian or Andrew Crawford) help enormously and turn...

Agree with Steve here...pics are mandatory, or maybe it didn't happen? Who knows :duno: :lol: - Rob

I'm going again this year and have to agree with others...it was excellent last year and well worth the effort insofar as the drive was around 70ish miles if memory serves - Rob

Agreed...ghastly :-& - Rob

The problem is MrB, as I understand it, is that Mark needs to incorporate two drawers in the side, which to all intent and purposes are 'secret', in other words, a table wot you've shown in your pic simply won't work. The grain of the drawer fronts needs to be made out of the same board as the...
