After making chopping boards for all of the family this Christmas, SWMBO was rather disappointed that I didn't make one for us... So knocked this up with the oak offcuts and two ash butterflies. First time doing them, rather pleased with the result!

"speed square" for shooting 45 degrees, which they routed out a dado for the tool to rest in
Just wanted to see it again to get an impression how good it might be,
but got fed up searching in the end .

So,,,, flip top mobile base for the thicknesser. Poor thing is a bit work weary, but it does deserve somewhere nice to sit.
I did make the base big enough to fit a replacement when the time comes :wink:
And, I took a load of this:-
Melted it in the oven, gave it a big squeeze in a mold, of sorts.
Rough turned them into some of these:-
Then I made them into a pair of wheels for my table saw

Cut up, painstakingly I add :lol: :-
Milk bottles, milk bottle tops, coke bottle tops, Tresemme bottles, anything that was hdpe grade plastic to be honest Steve. Quite fun to experiment, but I won't be repeating it anytime soon :lol:
