      I like this idea.  We need some of these

      You're right.  These would be pretty handy.  I'd like to see the feet pivot for easier/less-space-taking storage.
  • Project 3: Flip-through tool rack

      I also really like these.  This could possibly save use some wall space in the tool room.

      These really could save a lot of space!  I like the wrench board; I could finally get all of the wrenches out of that unorganized drawer!  We'd have to make sure the wrenches can't easily fall off the "page", but I think I have an idea to solve that.

Floating Shelves - Woodworking Projects - American Woodworker - 3 views

  • The secret was torsion-box construction. A torsion box is a simple grid of slender ribs glued between thin plywood skins. It makes these shelves stiff and flat, yet incredibly light. This rigid architecture means torsion-box shelves won’t sag or twist, and they can be mounted without any external support.

      I've never tried this, but I'd like to.
  • 11. Clamp the three shelf components together without glue, so you can check the fit of the miter joints. Use plywood braces to support the upper shelf and hold everything square. 
  • 6. Rout the edges flush. Use a second shelf to support the router and a piece of scrap plywood as a spacer.

      This could be very helpful.

  • For rough knockdown or outside furniture, the tenon can be cut longer than the depth of the mortise, with a hole drilled into the protruding part of the tenon and a key driven close to the outer face of the member which has the mortise cut into it. When this is done, it is called a keyed mortise and tenon joint.

      A student made this joint once.  I still have the example.  It is a very handy and strong way to assemble and re-assemble pieces.

  • A well-made dowel joint is as strong as a mortise and tenon joint
    • Bryan Koppert
      Bryan Koppert on 12 Mar 14
       
      Fine Woodworking did a strength test on these two joints, and they claim the mortise and tenon is stronger, by almost 2x.

  • It isn’t the fault of the tool. The truth is that most woodworkers don’t know the right techniques to make the most of their biscuit joiners, and there are some common attitudes and assumptions that hurt more than help, and don’t speed things up.

      They do help with line up and are pretty quick, if you use proper techniques.

  • Dovetails are probably the strongest method for joining two pieces of wood, surface to surface, with the grain running in the same direction.

      It's possible to stand on this joint without it breaking.  Dovetails are awesome!

joinery frame and panel

shared by Bryan Koppert on 13 Mar 14 - No Cached
  • Whereas solid wood shrinks and expands with changes in humidity affecting its overall dimensions, a frame and panel doesn't. Instead, the panel is able to expand and contract freely inside a unchanged frame.

      The frame also helps keep the panel from cupping.

  • Using the straightforward process detailed here, you can crank out great-looking doors for many applications, including furniture, cabinets, and built-ins. Frames use 3/4"-thick stock with 1/4" panels in various materials and veneers. A general-purpose saw blade will do the job

  • After this, joints can be released from the clamps, but the full glue strength won’t develop for about 24 hours.

      This is why I always say don't stress the joint for 24 hours.
