Finally making some more progress on the workbench. Leg assemblies are mostly done with a dry fit. Still have one more tennon to tune up and shape the feet but it's almost time to start building the long stretchers and the top. @ Edmond, Oklahoma

It has been quite a while since I've been on here, I got busy trying to finish out a few trunks that may or may not have been many months behind. Luckily I have really awesome and understanding customers. Theese trunks where a lot of work and they are far from perfect but I love how it turned out. The imperfections just let you know that it was built by someone like myself and not some automated process, so embrace them and know that each one was followed by a lot of foul mouthed comments from myself and maybe a few flying objects. @ Edmond, Oklahoma

Took some time today to finish up restoring this Stanley #45 combination plane. This is the first antique tool I have purchased and I'm amazed at how well it has stood the test of time. I believe this one was made around 1907 or so and it's missing a few things but all in all it will be a great tool for the shop. @ Edmond, Oklahoma

Got all of the dados and shaping for the upper side panels done and fitted. I really like the combo of and the gripper when I dado any kind of panel Ifeel like I have all the control I want and the end result is a straight and square dado. @ Edmond, Oklahoma
