Very nice web site, You have some great projects shown that are just absolutly beautiful. I really liked the mirror, jewelry box and the bud bottle. I myself haven't got the hang of the lathe yet, though I have a very nice one. It just seems to elude me, so I mainly stick with the scroll saw projects and building cabinets. Great web site, I'll check back from time to time to see any updates. Keep The Saw Dust Flying! Toolmanmike

Dan, I enjoyed looking at your website. You've made a lot more things than I have and you have better equipment. My "shop" is in half of a one car garage so you can imagine how much space I have. Both my wife and I are interested in getting a profitable craft business going so I am looking at a lot of wooden toy designs and deciding what our product line will be. My "shop" consists of a 16" scroll saw, 8" drill press, 1-1/2 hp router (all of these are Craftsman)and a cheapo table saw. I also have other power tools like a pad sander and saber saw, etc. By the way, I'm looking for non-toxic color wood dyes and finishes that I can use on toys. Do you know of any? Thanks. Good luck with your woodworking. Tom Witt

Thanks for the site. You are a few years further along than me. I am just starting on a Norm Abrams type bench! I too am something of a "toolaholic" and would always spend money on a tool rather than buy something I (think) I could make. Thanks for the ho esty about your skill levels - I dont feel so alone! When I find out what I'm doing with this computer, I woud be very pleased if I could produce such an interesting site as yours- thanks for the tour- Elliott (cambridge UK)

Cool site... I'll have to do something like this, in my spare time! The checkerboard table was my first project (last year), I made it for my daughter's 7th birthday out of maple and cherry blocks with a lacewood frame. It has a cherry base with tapered legs and a single drawer (Shaker-style). I'm working on built-in cabinets with a desk area and bookshelves for her bedroom now; made from birch plywood with maple face frames and raised panel doors (learned everything I could from Norm). I'm also in the process of finishing our basement and designing my workshop space. Time is a tough thing to balance - I can work on projects or building my shop. Good luck with your future projects! Thanks

Nice site. I like the projects and the discussion of the workshop. I am relatively new to woodworking, but really enjoy it. I especially love working with a router. I am in the process of building raised-panel doors for the kitchen and eventually the ntire house. I am also starting into furniture duplication and restoration, albeit the finishing aspect has me scared somewhat. Great Site!

You have a very interesting site, I enjoyed it very much. I have a complete wood shop in my basement as well. I have all the machine tools and power tools to build anything (When Norm needs a tool he calls me, ha ha). But it took me a long time to build my tool shop to the caliber I was looking for. If you want to chit chat please "E"-mail me and we can talk. You have a fine site and from the pictures you do very good work, keep it up. Your Friend Pieter

I have a small shop (12x12) in backyard, with all my tools (power and otherwise) except for the Shopsmith, which lives in the adjacent garage. I enjoy making just about anything - currently am learning pen turning. Another passion is finding and using o d lumber...found some heartpine that was cut 150 yrs ago when it was over 100 yrs old at the time. You have a very nice page.
