What woodworking did you do today?

[Sachakins]

Today hanging a solid pine door, hinges, lock set into frame I built yesterday.
Result. It fits, locks and doesn't rattle.
Down side, my chisels are carp, my sharpening of them is carper. My cheapo router trimmer is useless, slid down and over cut one hinge set too deep, packed it out OK though.
Brassware hides the horrible mess.

Outcome, next time pay the £90 to have it fitted

I watched a vid yesterday, and today while out buying a new TV, I speculated on what style and shape of TV unit I might need for the computer/blue ray and tv connect box to live in.

Something curved, possibly constructed from thin slats, possibly even steam bent.
Hmmmmm.

SHHH for Gods sake or Jacob will come in and you know what will happen then...

If you use a hinge and lock jig then you only need a router and can leave your chisels on the wall for display purposes and they will never need sharpening because I to cannot sharpen them.

Tried that but my router is useless too.

A good router and one I use in a Woodrat as well as for cutting holes for my tubular latchs, for the hinges I use a Bosch trim router which is much better for the shallow hinge cuts.

Finished off a picture frame spline cutting jig for use in my bench vise and track saw. Also made some splines using a lego jig. No pics at the moment will post later if anyone interested.

That's lovely, beech top and oak legs, or beech throughout?

 

[skeetstar]

Made one of my redneck bottle openers as a gift for a mate. A scrap of beech, a nail and a bit of finish. Must've made a dozen or so as giveaways.

Like the bottle opener a lot but how do you fasten on the nail?

Bend it 90 degrees and drive it in

Well I could see a couple of drawer fronts? Did I miss another pic? I feel sure your work deserves showing, it looked good what I could see.

Did you notice the yellow one in the second drawer?
Is that a handle or a puller?

that's it for now, bases and other one was hiding away from any dust after some stain and finish, really don't like staining Oak but you do as the client wishes..
