I wasn't having much luck with my Stanley #4 when flattening this table top. Out of desperation, I grabbed one of my Japanese planes. I've never had much luck with it in the past even though I tried it several times.
Man, that thing ate through the top and flattened it in no time. I hit it with the Stanley for good measure when I was done.
Spent some time #woodworking today. Got 2 of the 4 shelves glued up. Will do the other 2 late today or tomorrow.
Didn't get any joinery layout done. Instead, I fitted a dutchman into a tear-out spot on one of the legs. I think I can position that leg on the rear with the patch on the inner side of the shelves.

Next steps: add breadboard end and drawbore them in place, as usual. After that get the lap dovetailed stretchers built. I have to figure out how best to pierce the floating shelf to put it on the stretchers. Suggestions welcome (question is less how to make holes but more how to accurately make the such that they match the legs.) #woodworking
This older Black & Decker jigsaw blade mount confuses me (got the machine from my dad). Just a small metal block with two screws to tighten, no nodge or anything for the blade to be secured in place with. How is it supposed to be held in place with those pull forces? The moment it touched the wood it went flying, as expected.
Very confused how these older machines are supposed to work.

Todays little organizational project. A small door-mounted backsaw till.
There are front, bottom, and side views there. You can probably imagine the saws hanging by their handles in those eight kerfs (more than I need but…)
Definitely not to scale. :)

Spent most of the afternoon working on my Stickley No 670 music stand (shelves) project. Turning expensive quarter-sawn white oak into wood chips...
The legs have been planed to 1 1/2-inches square and the rails, styles, and shelf pieces have been planed to 1/2-inch thick.
Next steps are to start the glue-ups for the 4 shelves and to layout the joinery on the legs.
Paar Löffel.

Working on a long, narrow door to cover a narrow closet in our house where we keep sheets for bedding. The closet has a curved top. I’m using parts of a chair I got at a thrift store that perfectly matches this curve and plan to veneer it. We want to allow for air flow so this seems like a good solution. #handtools #woodworking
Breaking down a sheet of cherry plywood with hand tools isn’t easy, but it’s mostly figuring out how to hold the work in place. #woodworking #handtools

Perfect, as far as repairing goes. That slat was 16mm thick. Will do the job.
That repair was easy with a few basic tools: horses for the door, a hand saw to rip the strip, a plane to finish it to width, and clamps. Equally, the saw and plane must be sharp.
All stating the obvious, but until recently I wouldn’t have been able to do this simple job because my saws were dull as baby spoons.
Feels good to advance on restoring the old tools, setting up shop, and getting shit done.
Results. I wouldn’t call this perfect by any measure, but I think it’s really solid. To do better would require many more points and height matching. #woodworking
Our alternative platform community is thriving, but I'm wondering if we're thinking too small. What if we opened our doors to woodworkers, homelab enthusiasts, crafters, and other makers?
I'm personally diving into woodworking and can't wait to document the journey. Ready to build something bigger together?

The wife asked for a coffee table made from pallet wood. I of course immediately complied and started building. Today i gave it the first coat of finish after sanding for days. Soon dear, soon ☺️
Coucou, c'est le plateau de table qui fait du shibari avec des serres-joints.
