It’s time for another roundup of remarkable community creations. Prepare to peruse!

Chessboard by mark leatherland

I followed Pauls instruction and had a little help from him personally when he answered my question on the live Q&A. I am very pleased with the result! Walnut and Ash finished with shellac and wax

Dovetail Cabinet by rayc21

Small pine cabinet for a friend. Finish to be painted by friend

Saw Vise by nemo

Saw chocks as shown in an old blog post of mr. Sellers, only slightly larger. Made from recovered oak from old furniture, originally dark-brown stained. My first mortise-and-tenon joint. It’s not the tightest but acceptable and will not come apart again. Spring-loaded jaws. Made a quick&dirty stainless steel handle for it. Finished with two coats of boiled linseed oil. Only hand tools.

Greenhouse made from pine and glass for garden supply of flowers.

Tool Tote by Larry Christensen

Desktop Organiser by Jean Claude Peeters

Workbench by Victor Wang

72″ W x 28″ D x 38″ H. Has a 19″ work surface and 8″ tool well. The aprons are 13″ tall. Made entirely out of vertical grain Douglas Fir (except Sapele for the vise liners) . The top, legs, and rails, and tool well are made of laminated 2x4s. The aprons are laminated 2x6s and 2x2s. The 2x2s were added when I realized the aprons weren’t long enough to take the bolts. Finished with Tried and True Danish Oil. Made entirely with hand tools.

Garden Bench by Nenad Jankovic

Spice Shelf by Merrick

Black Walnut, shellac finish, first attempt. Made in Chicago, IL.

Rocking Chair by Justin Emrich

Rocking Chair. All Oak. Fantastic project to make which for a relative noice was a challenge, all cut and shaped with hand tools. Excellent videos. Thank you.

Coat Rack by Marco Cividin

Recycled fir, blonde shellac, beeswax

Handy Stool by Justin Emrich

Handy Stool, Sycamore and Ash legs. A real hit with The Boss! Bending the lamination was great fun.

Spatula by Strom

My first spatula/turner in beech. First project with only hand tools.

Bookshelves by Ermir

Redwood pine bookcase, water based stain. The joinery on the outside frame is mostly housing dados, with a few wedged tenons. The inner elements are joined with tapered interlocking housind dados, as in the “Leaning wall shelf”. Sliding doors with wooden tongue and groove, one empty space to choose for each row giving 81 different arrangements. I have to say once again that the poor man’s rebate plane and the not so poor man’s router are great tools! I used them a lot in this project.

Pine tree legged stools finished with outdoor varnish

Marking Gauge by Mike Daigle
