Here it is... the audio version of a great jig submitted by listener, Don Garner.  This is a fantastic shelf pin jig that's sure to be a major helper in your shop.

Thanks Don!  Also in case you missed it, I'll be taking the next couple of weeks off from the show.  With the summer well underway and the American Independance day just around the corner it's time for some rest and relaxation.  See you in July!!  But don't forget to keep those questions comments and suggestions rolling in!!

Check out this great jig for creating perfect shelf pin holes each and every time.

As beginning woodworkers we may not always understand the differences between the choices we have for a project.  So in a continuation of the "on the road" series today we discuss what the differences are between an overlay and an inset opening are.

It's Feature Friday and this week we have a great website review.  Old Woodworking Machines.com is a great resource for anyone who owns, is thinking of owning or just is intrigued with Old, Vintage Woodworking Machinery.  Totally a members driven website, all the content is supplied by members.  And thanks to the hardworking webmaster and volunteer moderators all the information on the 1,913 known manufacturers of Woodworking machines (currently it's 1,913 but perhaps you have one you could add to the list) through the ages is easy to locate and find.  Membership is free but the opportunity to share your old equipment with others is priceless.  Check them out at www.owwm.com .  Congratulations to this week's winner of free schwag David Preutt!!

The second half of the frame and panel construction discussion, and also our second on the road show.  This is a closer look at the actual construction of the both the frame and the panel components.

 

This is the first of our "on the road" series of podcasts.  While on a recent, long car drive.  I took advantage of all the "think" time, to record some shows and ideas.  Today's show is a talk about the use of frame and panels in our projects.  Why, where and soon to come ... how.

Thanks for listening!

Well this first week back is going gang busters.  Thank you, to those of you who have sent in some show ideas and suggestions ... you know who you are so give yourself a huge pat on the back for helping out the show.  Jerry wrote in to ask if there are any hints to look out for so you know when it's time to resharpen your blades.  I know when my family thinks I'm getting dull ... they just leave the room.  But it's even easier to tell when your blades and bits are getting dull.  Take a listen and then drop me a line with your show topic suggestion and to enter the schwag drawings too.

It's been a little while since the last posting, but here it is finally.  I had a great week off and actually got back into the shop for a little more work on a project or two.  This got me to thinking about a few rules in the shop that I'ld like to share with you!!  Take them for what they're worth and feel free to send me yours!!

Don't forget to get your name in for the free schwag drawings!
