Nick,

That is a very elegant desk. I like the design looking very simple, though I am sure it wasn’t.

I’ve completed the diamond plate set and thought it was time to put them in a frame for ease;

A small pedestal table with the only purpose of raising a 10L water bidon so we can it's tap without it needing to be on an edge.

Took the chance to get some training on mortise and tenon joints, I believe it's the 3rd time I am using them and still having trouble getting it to fit just right. It doesn't fit until the point is too loose on the mortice.
Anyway, good practice and happy with the learning process, very few things give me so much enjoyment as cutting joints by hand so definitely need to keep going. Next project is probably some dovetails

Rift sawn legs.....internet bonus points for those. Are the legs ash? Half a point off for the sapwood in the oak. Anyway, well done.

Very nice. Looks like it would also be suitable for a wine box

Here are some photos

Love that Nick. The moving middle panel looks like a good fit which can't have been easy.

That's really nice, you should quite rightly be proud of it.
I like the sapwood btw, adds a bit more character.

Legs are maple and I know the inclusion of sapwood isn't for everyone but I like the contrast. You are lucky I couldn't include a big knot

 

[MikeG.]

Knots are fine. Sapwood? Nope...the bugs love that.

A wooden clock: Baltic Birch ply, bits of Sapele and some stainless steel tube (for weights) from the scrap bin. Had a lot of help with understanding the plans from another UK Woodworker (thanks Brian) who had built the same clock. In the end though, once you have figured it out, it isn't that tricky to make and just requires a bit of careful sawing and finishing of the teeth. Keeps good time and was a lot of fun - maybe I'll make a more complicated one. One day.

The plans are available online https://www.lisaboyer.com/Claytonsite/s ... ypage1.htm

Cheers
Richard

patched up a knot today, too much excitement for one day!

 

[MikeG.]

What's that for Ben? Some might have taken a bit more of it away.

I need to twist a string and re-do some of the binding, but basically done. 45lb crossbow, ash lath, mulberry stock and tickler with antler inlays. The stirrup is a freebie from my village blacksmith, so even though its a little too large, I'm not complaining!

 

[gregmcateer]

Nice!

I could do with a cross bow for killing the family of rats that have come into our garden since lockdown

Wifey wanted a stand to raise the height of her lap-top. Used in conjunction with a remote keyboard. Iroko and Osmo.

it's for a top secret project mike, I will reveal all once it's finished promise

 

[Petey83]

Nothing fancy but making a batch of these for friends and family out of some left over Cedar of Lebanon was what got me back into wood working at the start of lockdown.

Simple small bowl from spalted beech. Largest blank turned so far (it's only 8" but I've just been doing smaller blanks to now).
