Thanks for the comments. The top was a challenge as it is wider than my planer/thicknesser so was flattened with a mixture of portable planer, jack plane and sander.
Dear God, the scale in that picture! The bush and the gravel....I thought you had made a MASSIVE tractor! Had to keep looking at it.
Logical part of brain 'Naaaaahh, can't be... it makes no sense'
Monkey part of brain 'F*** me! Naz made a lifesize tractor out of OAK! Brillliaaaaannnnt!!!!'
Hi folks. I am a new young woodworker of 62yrs that has just joined the forum. If this post goes to plan I will share a pic of my last (and first) project. If you can see it it is a new bunk bed made in pine for the grandkids. A poor picture as it is a large bed in a small room, and my phone camera struggled to fit things in.
The next project better be a smaller one as I almost burned myself out on this one.
Edit.... oops, no photo. Any clues on how I upload one?
Thanks for the reply Tom. I've just found the rules for piccies so am now trying to reduce the size for an upload (unless I reach the three posts first )
First project?? i think you can give yourself a pat on the back for that one, very well designed and nicely executed, kudos, and welcome to the forums.
just finished my first dovetail box with a sliding lid (although my third actual box) , made from spruce for the sides and lid, with redwood for the base, finished with one layer of dewaxed shellac for sanding sealer, sanded to 240, then a layer of clear briwax.
