Re: Project Of The Day : Weeze's Office
Scott,
Let me know when you take your furniture building on the road, to take advantage of some "southern" woods, like in South Florida. I'll be waiting. I wish I could do stuff like that.

Re: Project Of The Day : Weeze's Office
Some of those pics are awful, sorry. You should get the gist of it.
Weeze didn't get moved into it last night, I'm guessing we'll get that done this weekend. I'll post before and after pic when she's all moved in. I only have a dozen more pieces to make for the office. At the rate I'm moving I should be all done by 2020. Stay tuned!!!

Thanks guys!!!
I'm just glad it's out of my shop and my scooter is back in. I think I might sneak out for a little ride later. I still forget it's here cause I waited so long to bring it home.

Re: Project Of The Day : Weeze's Office
Very nice work, Scott.
Looks like you put that CNC machine to use on the cathedral "wainscot panels", eh? I wish I had the extra time to work on fun stuff like this. My most "fun" project recently was refinishing a wagon for my kids. In fact, still needs one more coat or paint, decals/stencils, and reassembly.

I mostly use the table saw for sizing rough lumber and making odd pieces that aren't worth setting up on the machine. I use it for adjustments to large pieces when necessary, too. There's just as much fun, if not more, in short projects than these big ones. Stuff like this tends to hang over your head, especially when it drags on for 6 months. I like stuff that takes a month or so. As I get better designing and building, it should take far less time to get things done. Making each panel out of skinny lumber is labor-intensive, slow and boring, and the hours of sanding are brutal, but it is what it is. The final results are outstanding, so it's worth the effort. I've considered using planes because I've saved so much sanding time by using my chisels, but good planes are around $350 each. I'd need at least 3 kinds to make any headway, and a thousand bucks for 3 hand tools is really, really tough to lay down.
