Jim,

The work process that you have  is much the same for me, The only difference is i joint everything before doing a thickness run, possibly the thicknesser will do the same work if the boards are reasonable. I actually made a table from pallets it on the Kreg Site somewhere if you wanted to see just what sort of results you can get.

How do you get the boards so nice - joiner/planer? I also like the finish. Nice job!

I currently subscribe to Woodsmith eTips and enjoy receiving their video tips and read tips. I’ve come across several over the past couple of years that have helped me in my shop and today’s tips included a simple low cost Moxon style vice that I think several of you may want to build.

If you haven’t already, I encourage you to subscribe as well

Thanks Woodsmith!

You are very welcome Charles. You can also use the wax on the face of your hand plane. Just scrible a few lines on it and it will glide smoothly over your work surface.

Hey Al, I see by your photos that you are a "Tin Banger" as well as a wood worker. What do you do for your day job?

Thanks Karsten,

Your work is pretty nice too, I like the computer desk you made. My wife wants me to build a coffee table and a couple of accent tables next and a friend of mine is giving me an old water bed that I am going to re-saw and re-purpose.

Excellent work, Jim!  I've only done one large project thus far, but I can appreciate the fine work you do with flush fit doors and drawers.  You've done a lot in your projects and it seems that you have got it down.  Especially critical with a white finish.

I also appreciate that you (and others) put pics of the assembly processes of your projects on this site.  It's a great way for us new woodworkers to learn new techniques.

Love your style. Do you build from plans or just shoot from the hip? Do have a plan for the bathroom mirrors?
You do nice work!!!!! I need to learn more about drawers.

You are welcome. I really enjoy my jig and I make a point to show it to everyone that visits my home. I'm just starting to build my garage shop and have incorporated it into my one wall bench first that way I can use it to build the rest of the shop.

Product Reviews

New Kreg 720Pro

I saw the video Kreg put out for this new jig and had high hopes for it.

I purchased one today and am very disappointed with it.

First the docking station is extremely cheap. The plastic is pathetic. A Lego has more…
