Finishing Bench
Now that I have a 10x12 empty room to use for finishing work I decided to build a small bench to do the finishing on, and then put in a drying rack.? Not wanting to take up alot of space I went with 24 inches x 36 inches?for footprint and 32 inches high.? No wheels, I can always revisit this if I want later.?

Workbench Magazine Mar-Apr 1965 Corner Cupboard
Courtland posted a file in Furnishings,
This is a scanned document of the now defunct Workbench Magazine of this era. Permission was granted by the new Workbench Publication for The Patriot Woodworker community to copy and use the old Workbench Magazine at our pleasure, and for free distribution and re-use.
This scan is of a corner cupboard, this is a great example of traditional design. These old Workbench Magazine's were fairly light on the detail, but with some prior knowledge and experience you can use this plan as a great jumping off point to build this corner cupboard.
Enjoy!- 0 replies

Fisch bits
PostalTom posted a topic in Hand Tools,
Has anyone had any experience with Fisch bits, specifically their auger bits?? I have been looking for a source for auger bits.? What I see on ebay and Amazon is disappointing.? Rusty, still have wood chips in the cutters and flutes, broken spurs, etc.? The only place I have found with a decent selection is Highland Woodworking.? Their product line features Fisch Jennings pattern bits, and a three piece set of 3/8, 1/2, and 3/4 inches is $119.99.? A little pricey, but if they are good quality I don't mind that too much.???- 24 replies
