  • Paul Sellers' Workbench Measurements and Cutting
    PAUL SELLERS’ WORKBENCH MEASUREMENTS AND CUTTING LIST PAUL SELLERS’ WORKBENCH MEASUREMENTS AND CUTTING LIST NOTE When putting together the cutting list for my workbench, I worked in imperial, the system with which I am most comfortable. I was not happy, however, to then provide direct conversions to metric because to be accurate and ensure an exact fit this would involve providing measurements in fractions of millimetres. When I do work in metric I find it more comfortable to work with rounded numbers, therefore I have created two slightly different sets of measurements. This means that in places the imperial measurement given is not a direct conversion of the metric measurement given. Therefore, I suggest you choose one or other of the systems and follow it throughout. © 2017 – Paul Sellers v2 PAUL SELLERS’ WORKBENCH MEASUREMENTS AND CUTTING LIST WOOD QTY DESCRIPTION SIZE (IMPERIAL) SIZE (METRIC) (THICK X WIDE X LONG) (THICK X WIDE X LONG) 4 Leg 2 ¾” x 3 ¾” x 34 ⅜” 70 x 95 x 875mm 1 Benchtop 2 ⅜” x 12” x 66” 65 x 300 x 1680mm 2 Apron 1 ⅝” x 11 ½” x 66” 40 x 290 x 1680mm 1 Wellboard 1” x 12 ½” x 66” 25 x 320 x 1680mm 4 Rail 1 ½” x 6” x 26” 40 x 150 x 654mm 2 Bearer 1 ¼” x 3 ¾” x 25” 30 x 95 x 630mm 4 Wedge ⅝” x 1 ½” x 9” 16 x 40 x 228mm 4 Wedge retainer ⅝” x 1 ½” x 4” 16 x 40 x 100mm HARDWARE QTY DESCRIPTION SIZE (IMPERIAL) SIZE (METRIC) 1 Vise 9” 225mm Dome head bolts (including nuts and washers) for 4 ⅜” x 5” 10 x 130mm bolting legs to aprons 2 Lag screws (with washers) for underside of vise ½” x 2 ½” 12 x 65mm 2 Lag screws for face

  • How to Make 'Condor Tails'
    How to Make ‘Condor Tails’ BY JAMEEL ABRAHAM An ingenious way to combine routers, a band saw and hand tools for big dovetails. know what you’re thinking: “Another opinion on how to cut I dovetails.” I hear you. But this one’s different. I promise. No back and forth over pins or tails first. No Rob Cosman vs. Frank Klausz. Well, actually a little Klausz. When I built my first serious workbench in the 1990s I practically memorized Scott Landis’ “The Work- bench Book” (Taunton) and like many woodworkers I was attracted to Frank Klausz’s beautiful bench, especially the large, crisp dovetails that joined the parts of the tail vise. Klausz told us what tools he used to cut the joints, but didn’t elaborate much on technique. I suppose with a lifetime of skill at your command, you just pick up the tools and the joint emerges. I wanted the crisp look of Klausz’s joints without waiting 20 years to develop the skill. After build- ing several large benches over the past few years, this technique emerged. Best of Both Worlds I’m a big believer in making dovetail Enormous perfection. Cutting large-scale dovetails, such as for this workbench, can be a challenge. joints that fit right off the saw. That’s a This technique makes it straightforward. skill that’s easy to learn with some prac- tice. But not so with the beefy members of a workbench, or large-scale furni- railing just to get the thing vertical so where they excel. This is truly blended ture.

A vernier scale lets one read more precisely from an evenly divided A set of vernier calipers. straight or circular measurement scale. It is fitted with a sliding secondary scale that is used to indicate where the measurement lies when it is in-between two of the marks on the main scale. It was invented in its modern form in 1631 by the French mathematician Augustus Vernier (1580–1637). In some languages, this device is called a nonius, which is the Latin name of the Portuguese astronomer and mathematician Pedro Nunes (1492–1578) who invented the principle. Another theory is that this name is from the Latin "nona" meaning "9" and therefore "nonius" means a "ninth" of the main scale. (Note - Wiki contains an entry for Pierre Vernier, but not Augustus Vernier - also, many sources list his birth and death dates as 1584 and 1638 - There may be an error in the current entry). Verniers are common on sextants used in navigation, scientific instruments and machinists' measuring tools (all sorts, but especially calipers and micrometers) and on theodolites used in surveying. When a measurement is taken by mechanical means using one of the above mentioned instruments, the measure is read off a finely marked data scale (the "fixed" scale, in the diagram). The measure taken will usually be between two of the smallest gradations on this scale.
