Hi all!
It’s a busy world, many people traveling and working everywhere. Many people are using their phones to stay connected, messaging, emailing, and for viewing web content wherever they are.
I have had a few inquiries and requests for the Woodworks to become more mobile phone friendly. What this means for those who may not be aware, is that web content needs to format a bit differently in order for it to be seen readably on a mobile phone with internet capabilities. The problem is one of viewing in the proper scale.

I worked out a design and sorted out the necessary hardware for my design.

But even as we do this most commonly on end grain, end grain is not the only place on a board that can benefit from the use of a shooting board.
There are a number of things a woodworker can classify as delicate work. It can of course mean short in length or width, thin stock, veneer, inlays, book matched pieces, and even working with tone woods. Luthiers commonly join book matched boards for stringed instruments, and these boards are very fragile.
There are also the occasions where using a power tool or a shop machine may not be the safest way, or the most accurate way to accomplish a task and so we are left trying to come up with an alternative method for accomplishing the fine work we need done. Continue Reading »
