Description
Contents: Classic Workbench (Sturdy and solid – nothing on this workbench is fragile. Even the metal vise features heavy wooden jaws, so it has a wide clamping surface and holds a pair of bench dogs); Laminated Top (There are two tricks to building a flat laminated bench top: laying out the boards properly and gluing them up. We’ve included some tips, techniques, and a simple jig for making this process as easy and accurate as possible); Readers’ Gallery (Many readers responded to our request for snapshots of the projects they’ve built from past issues. Here’s your chance to see the work of some fellow woodworkers); Dovetail Chest (This heirloom chest is just a box with a lid – and a sliding tray inside. It’ll give you a chance to use some traditional woodworking techniques and an old-fashioned finish); Hand-Cut Dovetails (If you’ve never cut dovetails by hand (or if you need a quick “refresher course”), here’s our simple step-by-step method); Three Board Shelf (Nothing fancy here, just three boards. But don’t miss the unique hanging system. About all you need for this project is a board foot of lumber and an evening to build it) Departments – Tips & Techniques; Shop Notes; Sources
