‘How 2’ Table by rotaryw
I was inspired by Paul Sellers table and I made one for a small kid. Oak wood for legs and aprons and pine for the top.

Small Box/Drawer Tidy Project by Steve Mees
I started with a box. Then decided I wanted a drawer as well. So glued a lower bit of carcase on, added a base and drawer. Sort of ‘design as you go along’. Not the best approach but I learnt a lot! Made of pine and walnut. Finished with shellac and furniture polish.

Cornhole Boards by JONATHAN HARRIS
Amazing what you can do with a few hand tools! I had a blast making these. Construction pine, oak dowels to plug screw holes. Edge jointed, with semicircles shaped before laminating. Kids love it

Carrying Tote by nemo
Simple tool tote for gardening tools. Made of recovered pine. Fifth attempt at dovetails, first time in pine. Inside corners aren’t as tight as I’d have liked. Handle is fitted with mortise-and-tenon joint with a wedge. Finished with two coats of boiled linseed oil.

Workbench by GreggE
Workbench built with all with framing lumber. Secondary usage: Quarantine home office 🙂

Saw Vice by Andy Reynolds
Inspired by the one Paul found in the antique store. White oak, walnut stain, garnet shellac and wax. Leather jaw liners.

Dovetail Box by nemo
A simple dovetail box for the bathroom, to hold cotton swabs. Fourth attempt at dovetails (3rd one was a similar box, given away as a present). Box was initially left unfinished but water would cause marks on the wood, so added a couple of layers of acrylic varnish.

Handy Stool by KeithB
A nice Lockdown project made using bits of scrap wood. I learnt a lot making this, especially around grain direction and how it can change, now to enjoy using it 😊

Walnut Wood Spice Boxes by Volodymyr Tobolskyy
I made this project about 30 years ago. These are boxes for spices. Now I don’t even remember what tool did these boxes. One thing I can say is that he didn’t even have a plane at that time, but sawed the boards with a saw for firewood. But I had a great desire to do something with my own hands to make it useful.

Live Edge Side Table by Chris Merchant
Walnut with a tung oil finish.

Desktop Organiser by rayc21
Made from maranti finished with four coats of shellac and waxing. Made taller to suit

Garden Bench by Nicholas Gaudiuso
Made from pine. 2 coats of tung oil and two coats of exterior poly. Gave to mom for mothers day. Thank you Paul. Awesome learning experience.

Dovetail Box by Nicholas Gaudiuso
Used what I learned from the keepsake project to build this. Made from mahogany I found at an estate sale. I was given a statue of St Joseph by my wife on my birthday. The box serves as a stand and I put a slot in it to place prayer intentions in.

Dovetail Boxes by Keith Oxby
My second dovetail caddy in African Mahogany and a pencil box in black cherry.

Keepsake Box by krott
I’ve used a cherry rough lamber for this project. Had to glue together two pieces for top and bottom sides. Found Brusso hinges good enough for such a box. For finishing selected Tung oil and antic wax. There is still no leather bottom incert due but hope to sort it out soon .

SMALL BOX/DRAWER TIDY PROJECT BY STEVE MEES
Interesting way to proceed even if it was not planed ahead.
The challenge is to get the same dimension for the lower and upper part but it is an alternative to make wider panel beforehand.
And the lower carcass and the drawer sides appear to be from the same piece of wood. Makes getting the drawer to fit a lot easier to do I suspect.
