Just learning joinery, my interest is in Shaker style furniture making. My latest work was a console table in cherry and black walnut. With no design specifications, I built the table from a Pinterest photo.
I wanted to make a new dinning room table at counter height, with a couple of leaves. My old table expanded to 60″x60″ so I used this as a starting point, building a base. I then started on the top which would slide onto the base. I used maple for the frame of the top and then used pieces of maple, oak, poplar, pine, cedar and oak plywood inlaid on the top I then started built a jig so that I could rout out the center pieces to a uniform depth and then started pouring in the resin. I finished it off with spraying a clear satin poly. after a couple of days drying, I put on some car wax and buffed it out. All together it took about 2 1/2 months to finish
Tired of all the wasted space under regular router tables so I built this which has LOTS of storage for bits, accessories, and other tools. Also very stable with 4 dual locking casters.
Building a cigar box violin was an interesting way to learn about violin scale lengths and various dimensions that need to be followed in order to make a playable instrument. This was a fun thing to build, and it looks great up on the wall!

Hello. Sounds like a cool project, but unfortunately we do not have any plans for something like that. Good luck and please send us a picture when you complete it!

Finished this earlier this year. Inspired to build this after seeing them in the Stickley furniture store in Denver and the original desk on display at Gallery Furniture in Houston.
I dislike how all domino table look all alike so I do designs on my table and not one is alike the other. For pictures of other tables please e-mail me for them 🙂 Thank you for this opportunity to show some of my works.
I changed the angle of the seat and back and raised the height of the front of the seat and made the backs higher. This makes them easier to get out of and you can lean your head back on the backs.
26 String Harpune
A BeardedWonder Productions Production by
BeardedWonder
The harp took five or six weeks to construct in my car port with two or three hours a day four or five days a week spent. It took thirty to forty minutes of set up and put away and clean up for each session so only an hour and a half to two hours per session was actual working on the harp. It was slow and fun work as I have never made an instrument so complex.
The harp has a thirty inch long sound board and is about forty two inches high. It is a Paraguayan style harp where the string are strung in the middle not on the left hand side as traditional folk and modern concert harps. This makes it lighter and easier to build as the stresses are all down the middle of the harp. You may have noticed that it use guitar tuners instead of tuning pins. Easier to tune and no wrench to drop or loose.
John Kovac – Harpmaker 26 String Harpune kit for the hardware plans and strings. One bold and six screws and it is in pieces again.
this is a 48 inch self contained water wheel 30 gallon reservoir, 500 gph adjustable water pump. plug and enjoy the motion and sound of falling water. Also build a 40 inch all here in my wood shop.
Your plan for a vegetable bin was a great idea to fill an open space in our kitchen counter. I had to modify the dimensions to fit the existing opening. The top bin serves as a bread box. Thanks, WGOA!

This is my version of a bedside table my granddaughter made for me. She (9th grade when she made it) showed me how to make the top. It was great to see her interest in woodworking and learning a new technique from her.
If your a beginner like me, I took handouts of power tools from veteran woodworkers and learned on them. Then added better tools as I went along. Took about a year to accumulate and build. But to me it was worth the wait.
I had a well cover, for a dug well, that was chipping and cracking. I repaired that but decided I needed to completely cover it so I built a well cover.

I’ve been a carpenter for over 40 years; found the love of restoring and building antique boats 20 years ago. Since retiring 5 years ago, I’m finding time for some special projects.
This is a great use of the CnC router. I am a Marine Corps Vet. Thank you for that share. I just got my CNC router and did two projects with it. i am still learning
Commissioned by my neighbor to build this sofa table with a hidden compartment for keeping his “Home Defense” items concealed and safe. The drawer is activated by a RFID card when placed in just the right area. Neighbor gave me the +30 year old walnut stock to use because it was from his father which he lost recently. Sort of a memorial table with added security! Top has a maple inlay surround with matching leg pegs.
I wanted my dog Ollie to ride along with me when we go camping. He enjoys the rides we take. Made out of mostly scrap pieces I had around the shop. Did have to purchase a half sheet of luan.
I build tall case mission style clocks as an avocation. I have two for sale right now. They have a German made mechanical movement that chimes every quarter hour. It makes a beautiful sound. These clocks are made to resemble Stickley reproductions.
1968 Dodge A108 camper van restoration project. The layout is similar to the original but much improved. The cabinet below the fridge contains a heating/air conditioning system out of a big rig truck. I’m now prepping it for paint after welding 45 feet of body seams.

Dining Table with Bench, hand made in KD European Pine, size: Table 1265 mm L x 780 mm D x 760 mm H,Bench 1045 mm L x 360 mm D x 460 mm H finished with WATCO food safe Butcher Block oil & finish for natural look.
Here are two projects. One major, on minor.
The bandsaw jewelry boxes were Holiday presents several years ago and used up some of my cutoffs.
The dinning room chandelier took nearly a year, required steam bending and glue lamination to make the ellipses. It took several approaches to make the light fixtures, finally settling on 1/8″ NPT brass elbows.. The glass ellipses were epoxied into walnut frames and then epoxied between the upper and lower rims
I made the multisided polygons using instructions from WWGOA DVDs on Layout & Geometry. You need the pdfs from these discs as well. The number & month rings are twelve-sided polygons and the weekday ring is a seven-sided polygon. I first noticed the perpetual Calendars on Pinterest.

A big thanks for the reindeer pattern. My son and I made numerous deer at three different sizes. Painted them red and gave to neighbors for Christmas……everyone loved them…Thanks again
Where do you get sycamore lumber? I live in Denver area and can get most common hardwoods and exotics but species like sycamore, sassafras etc. are really hard to find.
Laundry room was dull and and lacked storage , the walls are tiled to make it look like wood planks for durability had to customise the cabinets to fit in the space.
I chose to revisit this design made a number of years ago. I designed Flower Mirror Revisited to use rescued Bubinga. The soft curves of the mirror allow the light to dance across the surface of the wood. As with many of my pieces I chose to do a clear hand rubbed finish to allow the beauty of the wood to take center stage. Photo by Justin Guarino
Due to arthritis in my hands, and emphysema, ( wood dust induced) I find it nigh- on impossible to indulge my love of woodwork. But my enthusiasm and hunger for information is unaffected. so I am not able to submit any project’s. Sorry!
Was a gift for my daughter, who told me of their existence. Itz very hard to get cedar here, so had to go with cypress fence boards instead.
As long as she’s happy
I have been scroll sawing projects for years. I decided to take up toy making. I have a bad habit of going all in when I start something new. I made a motorcycle and found the wheels very difficult to make.
Fue una experiencia bien agradable el poder lograr disenar y construir esa pared de division para mi balcon, dividiendo el area de cocina exterior del area que utilizamos para esparcimiento. Otra similar pero con acceso para entrar al area fue hecha el borde derecho de ese porche.
I really like the cedar planter George made. I’ve used that as a basis for making several more. I’ve made some modifications. The 1st is that I make the dirt tray 22″ wide, this is 2′ less the thickness of the lumber. 2nd, I cut the slats to fit sideways. This is plenty strong and doesn’t require bracing. One that I made is a U-shape. This was to show how a planter could be made specifically for a greenhouse. The full size is 6’x8′ with a 2′ opening to go between the side planting beds and get to back bed. I found, when making this, that using biscuits made alignment much easier when joining the upper and lower frames. One extra thing I incorporated is lining the inside with landscape paper.
You don’t have a way to send a picture otherwise I’d attach pictures of this planter.

Wow! That is beautiful. I am in he process of building my first Cherry table, similar to this. It is from Jon Peters (YouTube channel). Your table inspires me. Can you say what finish you used? The color is really nice. Thanks!
Hi. I just have a question. I want to make resign coasters and a resign river table. Do I use the same resign and harder because in one video of a resign river table they use heat to take out the bubbles. But in making coasters or butcher blocks they use the heat to make cells in the ocean scene. I’m confused.
Heat is always what’s used to remove bubbles from epoxy. I’ve never seen it used to make the lace look in an ocean scene. In my experience that’s done with Oxide White pigment and rubbing alcohol. Jess shows this here https://www.wwgoa.com/video/making-ocean-resin-pour-017671/
If you have any other questions, please chat, email, or call Customer Service.

I have made a number of these boxes as well as some furniture that I give as gifts to my friends and family.
This is from a tree I had to take down in my moms yard a few years ago. I saved a section in order to make this table.
A big thanks for the reindeer pattern. My son and I made numerous deer at three different sizes. Painted them red and gave to neighbors for Christmas……everyone loved them…Thanks again
Where do you get sycamore lumber? I live in Denver area and can get most common hardwoods and exotics but species like sycamore, sassafras etc. are really hard to find.
Hi Dale. I haven’t come across it the lumber yards that I frequent in Minnesota either.
Thanks

Try Rockler Woodworking and Hardware, that’s where I found sycamore.
Laundry room was dull and and lacked storage , the walls are tiled to make it look like wood planks for durability had to customise the cabinets to fit in the space.
Very Nice
Looks great!
I chose to revisit this design made a number of years ago. I designed Flower Mirror Revisited to use rescued Bubinga. The soft curves of the mirror allow the light to dance across the surface of the wood. As with many of my pieces I chose to do a clear hand rubbed finish to allow the beauty of the wood to take center stage. Photo by Justin Guarino
I am going to do this for my kids
Do you have plans for this rocking chair
Very nice project!! I would like to see more pictures of it or, if it’s possible, the whole project! Thanks!

Wow! This is gorgeous… would you ever publish the design?
Due to arthritis in my hands, and emphysema, ( wood dust induced) I find it nigh- on impossible to indulge my love of woodwork. But my enthusiasm and hunger for information is unaffected. so I am not able to submit any project’s. Sorry!

Beautiful display worthy of the high honors the General earned.

Was a gift for my daughter, who told me of their existence. Itz very hard to get cedar here, so had to go with cypress fence boards instead.

Magnificent! Years ago I worked on those truck and yours is spot on!
I’m a new member as of about 4 months. Fantastic material. Want to be a woodworker like George.
Like this Where did you get plans?
I have been scroll sawing projects for years. I decided to take up toy making. I have a bad habit of going all in when I start something new. I made a motorcycle and found the wheels very difficult to make.
Fue una experiencia bien agradable el poder lograr disenar y construir esa pared de division para mi balcon, dividiendo el area de cocina exterior del area que utilizamos para esparcimiento. Otra similar pero con acceso para entrar al area fue hecha el borde derecho de ese porche.
Sir, was this Divco a pattern, would love to make one ,,
Wood Turned project
everyday woodworker hobby
Very enjoyable looking at all the projects on the site.
My website has a large number of my projects, I just need to update it sometime. I have a lot of toy projects that I need to put up there…Enjoy!
Do you have plans for the divco
Working with Epoxy and all my wood scraps on my mini lathe
I found a way to use my hardwood scraps in turning
I really like the cedar planter George made. I’ve used that as a basis for making several more. I’ve made some modifications. The 1st is that I make the dirt tray 22″ wide, this is 2′ less the thickness of the lumber. 2nd, I cut the slats to fit sideways. This is plenty strong and doesn’t require bracing. One that I made is a U-shape. This was to show how a planter could be made specifically for a greenhouse. The full size is 6’x8′ with a 2′ opening to go between the side planting beds and get to back bed. I found, when making this, that using biscuits made alignment much easier when joining the upper and lower frames. One extra thing I incorporated is lining the inside with landscape paper.
You don’t have a way to send a picture otherwise I’d attach pictures of this planter.

Beautiful table
Here is a railroad bookshelf I made for my son’s bedroom.
Wow! That is beautiful. I am in he process of building my first Cherry table, similar to this. It is from Jon Peters (YouTube channel). Your table inspires me. Can you say what finish you used? The color is really nice. Thanks!

Hi. I just have a question. I want to make resign coasters and a resign river table. Do I use the same resign and harder because in one video of a resign river table they use heat to take out the bubbles. But in making coasters or butcher blocks they use the heat to make cells in the ocean scene. I’m confused.
Hello Brian,
Thank you for contacting us.
Heat is always what’s used to remove bubbles from epoxy. I’ve never seen it used to make the lace look in an ocean scene. In my experience that’s done with Oxide White pigment and rubbing alcohol. Jess shows this here https://www.wwgoa.com/video/making-ocean-resin-pour-017671/
If you have any other questions, please chat, email, or call Customer Service.
