Greetings fellow LJ friends. It's been awhile since I have last posted anything. Back issues/surgeries have kept me out of the shop, however I pushed through ongoing issues and prevailed. I have a buddy that is more of a brother than buddy. He asked me quite awhile ago if I could make hime a watch-box and this is what I built for him for his birthday. I cannot the credit for the box design, I used The Wood Whisperer's knife box as the inspiration, changed the dimensions and added the cubbies. I used Bubinga because of its beautiful color and grains and walnut as accents. Brusso hinges and a mortise and tenon type lock from Woodcraft.Yes, you may notice a missing screw head in the right hinge, I snapped it off (hate tightening brass screws) and need to go get a screw extractor to fix my mistake. I wanted to post this before surgery tomorrow but will get the repair done. Thanks for looking!

How To Make A Handsaw Caddy

Furnished content.
(from Lumberjocks.com)


It's been quite a while since I've been able to post anything on here. It's good to be back.This is a shop project that's been a long time coming. I wanted all of my handsaws to be in one place so I made this handsaw caddy. I based the design on some plans I downloaded from somewhere. I'm sure they're easy enough to find online.The material is just some cut-offs that I scrounged from a construction site. I want people to know that they don't have to spend a lot of money on materials and equipment to make things. They can use whatever material they can come up with and just some basic tools.Check out the video of how I made it on my new You Tube channel Just Throwin' It Together This is the channel that I will be using to post my “How to” videos.
