531 Desktop Album Rack
No one will ever be able to say the Vanderlist family vinyl collection is overwhelming. It’s diverse to say the least, but that has more to do with them being picked up solely for use in a photo shoot by my wife versus played. Actually, we don’t even own a turntable, so even if we […]

479 Samantha’s Mirror Pt. 2
On today’s show we’ll continue where we left off last week on the construction of the Cherry Mirror frame I recently built for my wife. As I mentioned in the last episode we purchased a full-length mirror for our bedroom and after getting it home I decided it was just a little too plain for […]

Thankfully having properly sized dados and attempting a few dry runs made the whole process a little less scary, but scary none the less. Enjoy! […]
389 Samantha’s Bookcase Construction Pt 2
In the last episode of Samantha’s Bookcase project, we covered ripping sheets of plywood to their rough sizes. For a small shop this can be a daunting task, but not impossible if you plan it correctly. A big part of my planning is not worrying about taking the cuts to their final dimensions yet, but […]

This is the second video on the construction of Aiden’s Dresser. Using a crosscut hand saw I rough dimensioned the Cherry stock and show how to easily and quickly use a hand saw on stock that is too wide for my power miter saw. Also covered in this video is how I use a No. […]
