Occasional Table/Small Desk
Furnished content. (from Lumberjocks.com)
I needed a small table for my 3D printer. I made this one out of maple, largely scraps from other projects and left over drawer material.The finish is Osmo. Mortise and tenon joints were cut with the pantorouter. The dovetails on the drawer were cut using a table saw dovetail technique that I am fine tuning.A simple three day build that will serve a purpose. The lines are a hybrid of empire and modern styles and match my desk build. It will live in the office and having the same lines as the desk will make it part of the general look of the room. Also, I simply like the basic clean lines of the legs and platform top.This is one of the few pieces of furniture I have done that I did not draw out…I just had a general size of the dimensions in my head and started roughing out stock. After all if the rails match, the length is moot!I did a full build video on the project, so if you want more details, give it a watch:https://youtu.be/UJ1iLV6P_2sI can't seem to embed video on this site anymore, but the link should work.

Moxon
Furnished content. (from Lumberjocks.com)
I had been wanting to build a Moxon for a while and I finally pulled the benchcrafted box off the shelf and did it. I used local walnut and cherry that I planed straight from the mill. I flattened the cherry top by hand to prove to myself I COULD do it, then power-planed all the walnut.I dovetailed the box and using a plow plane, ran a circumferential groove to receive the inset top. Cleaned up with chisels and a router plane.I wanted to inset a Lee Valley wagon vise in the top, really just to pinch a board while transferring dovetails. I made a template and used a router, cleaned up with a router plane.I drilled a bunch of 3/4” round dogholes and plopped some trinkets in there. The inset vise has some limitations and the stop on the vise end tends to tip out under pressure. I got the low profile “jaws” and they work a little better. It'll hold things gently, but I'm used to my primary wagon vise that will crush nuts. I got a few other builds and lots of tools to post when I can find the time. Thanks for looking and take care.Edit: here's the final product. If you have any questions, I've got tons more build pics.

Teak Trivets with metal rods
Furnished content. (from Lumberjocks.com)
First time working with plantation teak Lovely wood with lots of coloration. A bit hard to work with as it is gummy. Very flexy when cut into strips too I used the metal rods as supports and little spacers on the larger trivet so no glue required Small one is a coaster for me, larger is for a specific place in the kitchen Cheers for looking, Scott
