  • Twinned Jewellery Box Got 4Cm-Thick Boards and After Four Years of Air Drying I Started Working Them
    PROJECTS & TECHNIQUES Secret mitre dovetails Using local wood For this box I used timber from an old dead oak that was cut down about four or five years ago. I took it to the saw mill and Twinned jewellery box got 4cm-thick boards and after four years of air drying I started working them. The first time I hand planed them I noticed that it Israel Martin makes a jewellery box using was much easier than other oaks I’ve used. I’m not aware of any studies comparing air-dried wood vs kiln-dried wood, but after secret mitre dovetails and maple edge inlays years of testing both, I find air-dried wood to be more hand tool friendly than kiln-dried wood. The oak tree that supplied the timber Ready for the saw mill Some of the boards after air drying Getting continuous grain boards Start with the wood selection and prepare the boards to get four continuous grain pieces. There is a simple way to get a nice, continuous grain pattern, as shown here: divide the board in two by sawing it in half, then cut the two boards in two parts again.

This project was no different but I decided to incorporate some secret mitre dovetails as well.

They differ only in the I’ve studied panel-raising planes spring angles (the tilt of the plane off made circa the late 18th and early 19th vertical) and skew of the iron (which centuries, including one made by Aaron creates a slicing cut across the grain to Smith, who was active in Rehoboth, reduce tear-out). The bed angle of the Smith plane is 46º, and the iron is skewed at 32º. Combined, these improve the quality of cut without changing the tool’s cutting angle – which is what happens if you skew Gauges & guides. It’s best to make each of these gauges before you start your plane build. In the long run, they save you time and keep you on track. Shaping tools.

  • Word Buff's Ultimate Scrabble Cheat
    Word Buff's Ultimate Scrabble Cheat It's Totally Unfair! This is a free ebooklet for Word Buff subscribers. I'm always adding freebies to the members area, so make sure you check in from time to time. (Join here) Inside you'll find a list of every single two-to-five letter word allowed in English Scrabble. If you're going to cheat, this is the list you need to peek at ;-) Why? Because even though long words are more exciting to play (especially the plays that garner 50 bonus points!), the short words give you far greater bang for your buck. You will use them in almost every move of every game. Plus, there are nowhere near as many to learn as there are seven to nine letter words. So you get ten times the value for one tenth of the work. And that's the definition of 'bang for your buck'! Now, I know you're in a hurry to get into the words, but just a couple of pointers... You'll notice that the words do not all appear in the same format. I know it's annoying, but the thing is there are two official Scrabble dictionaries in use around the world and although they have a lot of words in common, there are quite a few differences too. If you want to know more about the different Scrabble lexicons I suggest you have a quick read of one of my old Word Buff newsletters here. But for now, all you really need to know is this..
