Justin look what I found. Is that what you did?
Lumber Manufacturers
If you are interested in building your own furniture, house extensions, platforms, or frames, then you might want to consult the online directory to help you find lumber manufacturers that you can buy construction materials from. You will probably find several distributors listed in the directory. Some people find that the large number of suppliers makes it difficult for them to decide which company they should buy from. You can choose a company by contacting several of them and getting information that will help you make a good decision. Call the first supplier on your list and ask them if they sell a variety of boards, plywood, pulpwood, construction materials, softwood, hardwood, and other products. Some lumber manufacturers that you talk to might focus on certain types of lumber. For instance, a supplier might have pine and cedar timber, but they might not have the other red wood products that you want. It is often best to choose a distributor that can supply you with all of the boards, timbers, and construction materials that you need. Ask the distributors where they are located. If you have a truck that is large enough to carry the dimension of the dried wood, then you might be able to save money on shipping and delivery by choosing a company that is in your area. If you can get a better price from a company out of your area, though, you will want to ask how much it will cost to ship the sizes that you need for your platforms, frames, furniture, or other construction projects.
Justin is the wood already dried or it have to be put in a dryer for wood? The problem I'm running
into is I don't know what is the best way to get wood. Is that a lumber yard buying cured lumber
from the mill? Can you buy from the mill and cut the distributor out to save money? I'm trying to
figure out how to buy and save money.
Do I love my dust collector.I planned out around 100 lineal feet of ash and I did not have one speck of saw dust or chips on the floor. Although I do have to get the cyclone and garbage can because I did plug up.
Also built a portable dust hood for my router table and can be used with radial arm saw,miter saw and edge sander.
Hi Justin
Thank you for all the details for your oak bar. My wife just looked at yours again and gave the green light to start the build. Thanks again for all your help!
When I have stain questions I am coming to you then!! I have done some restoration work, but not much. It's funny, I have never sold anything that I have made. I build things for friends, they pay me for materials and I build what I can. I would love to maybe do a craft fair or something, but other than the cutting boards I make I have no clue what else to do. You get much business off of craigslist selling the things you make?? I have never heard of Etsy.com either. I need to get in gear and make a little money off of this stuff so I can buy toys!! LOL! I hope to sell that table saw, words can't even describe!
Justin glad it is of some help. Another Gentleman, David Dean, on the community replied to me as well wanting some plans. I will draw up a set tonight and get them to you as well. I never build from plans so don't have any available right now. I guess I should draw up and catalogue some plans or at least as to how I build them so others could have access to them. later and If I can answer any questions give me a shout. jay, from Oregon
Justin, I played with the blocks today and came up with some measurments for you and a plan as to how they go together. Figured it was to complicated to draw and send on this site so , I'll try another way. I'm sure you can figure it out. basically the height mesurements are figured on a standard 36 inch high cabinet without a pre framed toe kick. It is figured with a 3/4 thick top so adjust accordingly. Also don't forget that the measurments for depth is to include a 3/4" thick face frame so deduct that from the floor where the doors will close and on both end panels.
Also raise the floor on your panels to match the toe kicks of the other cabinets.
I'm honored, maybe some of my 20 plus yrs of working wood can be of help. I know you have information that I can use. I have seen your projects and you are very good at what you do. Looking forward to exchanging information and ideas with you. Thanks and have a great day
Justin, you remind me of me 40 years ago, we look to be the same size and your lovely wife seems to be the size of my wife. I am 5 foot 14 and she is 5 foot we have been married for 43 years before the for in November 30, the exact. You have read anything ever need advice about tools, safety, do not be afraid gimme a holler. Your friend, do not call me William call me Bill
Bill, I appreciate it! She consistently tells me that she is the shoemakers kid since I'm always making things for other people. Please take care of yourself and keep in touch.
Great Cabinet!!! My name is Steve Trevisan And sent a friend request because I'm looking for plans for a router table like yours. Would it be possible to obtain a set of plans of your cabinet???? I'm new to kreg and would like this to be my first project. Thank you for your time.
I don't pay attention to facebook much just seen your reply. I probably will build a new router table some time this sumer. Nothing fancy but think incra fence system in combo with router table and table saw maybe the way to go. So router table info is a hot button for me. Between router form and kreg I get a lot of good ideas. Thanks for all your help. Hows that new saw treting you?
I really like your table, Justin. I like curly maple it is a beautiful piece of wood. Your table is a work of art with the curly maple top. That side table will look really good in any room you made it. It would probably enhance other pieces in the room.
I sure love that table you did. Really fine piece of work. Hopefully, I too could put some nice stuff out sometime next summer. Right now, I'm trying to finish on my big rebuild of my shed/shop.
Hey Leslee, thanks for that. It's funny that it was such an easy project, but it was the wood that sets it off. I'm going to be adding an addition to my garage this summer to give myself a little more room too. I'm looking forward to your projects!
