My new truck
Furnished content. (from Lumberjocks.com)
Well last time I was here someone let me know that I need to add more details . I am not a writer so I will do my best. This truck started out as plan # 207 from Aschi's Plans. Well I tried to make one of Peter's truck , but as usual I could not stick to a plan. His plans are fun and easy. I just seem unable to follow a plan. All hooked up it about 36” and for me it's about a week to build. It has a lot of pine, oak, maple, ash, and little mahogany here and there.

Order Up!
Furnished content. (from Lumberjocks.com)
Been busy the past two weeks after our only Spring Craft Show. One of our regular customers asked if I could make a selection of Inertia Pens and Key Chain Screw drivers for them to use as gifts during the holidays.The Inertia Pens were recently put on Clearance at Woodcraft so I ran over to the local store and grabbed what was left to add to my small stash. Wound up with a full dozen in various color finishes. I was able to match the woods to the finishes with stuff I already had on hand and pretty happy about how they turned out. If you are not familiar with these pens they retract and drop with a flick. Kind of fun type of pen.The screwdriver kits are from Penn State (not a huge fan of their pens but like their little kits) Gun Metal was the chosen finish and again I matched up stuff I already had on hand. As you can see in the last pic they have a selection of tips stowed inside and then are held in the stem with a magnet. Great for glasses or small electronics.Now I have some other project I need to get done and then it on to the BBQ Swap.Hope you all have a good weekend in or out of the shop.CtL

Floating Clock
Furnished content. (from Lumberjocks.com)
I made this clock using cherry and zebra wood. The pattern is featured in the latest issue of “Wood” magazine. They used walnut and a zebra wood veneer glued to mdf. Since I had some zebra wood scraps, I used them. The clock mechanism is from Klockit. If is finished with a satin urethane. This project was an enjoyable change from the Scrollsaw.
