Woodworking home page

This is the index to my woodworking and related information pages.

• Pole building page.  This includes a "history," site plan, building plan, construction, tools' layout, and afterthoughts.
• I use Clearvue cyclones and here are a couple of quick pages.
• The main cyclone for the outbuilding and the associated video slideshow, which uses Photodex's Presenter  plugin which can be downloaded here.
• The mini cyclone used with vacuums
• Compound miter angle calculation. This is still the page which I quickly put together back in 1999 for my original exchangenet website.
• i had always found setting the tool guide at the right distance from the edge of a panel to be rabbeted as too time consuming and prone to error. i recently had it with nudging the rail after my first pass with the router, and decided that there has to be a better way. there is.
• Projects
  • My office. I started the cabinets in 2001, but have yet to finish it. Who has time to do these things with small kids? It's presently usable.
  • Kitchen. currently only in the planning stages, since the pole-building is not yet completed. I and my wife, however, are planning and drawing layouts. Because the kitchen and dinette areas are not large, the island will incorporate a partially retractable dinner table.
  • Though more construction than woodworking, here are a couple of deck projects
  • Build a pool deck, summer 2009.
  • Tear down--or as my 8-year old says: "Demolate the deck"--late summer 2009.  This was done for the stamped-concrete patio which will replace it.
