http://www.woodshopshed.com/index.cgi The Woodshop Shed - adventures in woodworking and home maintenance, from my shop in a backyard shed en http://www.woodshopshed.com/index.cgi/2024/12/18#auto___chisel_rack____install_it_bark_side_up_or_down Furnished content.<br />(from WoodNet.net)<br /><br /><br />I was futzing around in the shop Sunday and I made this chisel rack. (Everyone likes the exposed bark look these days to I figger, "What the heck".)<br /><br />It will sit to the right of my benchtop and I initially planned on installing it bark side down, but then youreally can'tsee the bark unless you squat down, and I'm getting to the age when a squat could mean an impromptu trip to the can!!! <script src="/jscripts/inline/smilie.js.php" data-sid="1"></script><br /><img src="https://forums.woodnet.net/images/graemlins/yellowsmile.gif" alt="Smile" title="Smile" class="smilie smilie_1 " /><br /><br />Bark side up shows off the bark (duh!!!) but the "shelf" (not the correct word, but you get the gist) isn't as wide. But I doubt I'd ever use it.<br /><br /><br />What's the consensus??<br /><!-- start: postbit_attachments_attachment --><br /><!-- start: attachment_icon --><img src="https://forums.woodnet.net/images/attachtypes/image.png" title="GIF Image" border="0" alt=".gif" /><!-- end: attachment_icon -->&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href="attachment.php?aid=53294" target="_blank" title="">Bark_side_down.gif</a> (Size: 468.18 KB / Downloads: 107)<!-- end: postbit_attachments_attachment --><br /><!-- start: postbit_attachments_attachment --><br /><!-- start: attachment_icon --><img src="https://forums.woodnet.net/images/attachtypes/image.png" title="GIF Image" border="0" alt=".gif" /><!-- end: attachment_icon -->&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href="attachment.php?aid=53295" target="_blank" title="">Bark_side_up.gif</a> (Size: 506.4 KB / Downloads: 107)<!-- end: postbit_attachments_attachment --><br /><br />Read more <a class="sw_sl" href="https://forums.woodnet.net/showthread.php?tid=7377479" target="_blank">here</a>
