November 17, 2014. You Aren’t Sweeping Enough (And I’m not, Either). Filed under: Favorite tools. I Think I'm Funny. 8212; fairwoodworking @ 5:43 pm. If a students shows me the floor during class and asks: Should I s. I cut them off. Yes. I sweep a lot, and it is part of the rhythm of my day. As I finishing planing up panels with a jointer plane, I stop to sweep the floor before I take on the parts for the lid even if the floor is performing well. This approach not only ensures my floors will look their ...

The Joker and Cabinet Maker | Fair Woodworking
https://fairwoodworking.wordpress.com/2015/03/07/the-joker-and-cabinet-maker
March 7, 2015. The Joker and Cabinet Maker. Filed under: Favorite tools. 8212; fairwoodworking @ 2:44 pm. Ok, It’s hair splitting time again. As many of you may know, I’m pretty much a hand tool guy. I rarely talk about power tools, and if you are familiar with me on the Twitters, I’ll mock incessantly anyone that dares admit to using them. I do however have a problem with the use of a common new term used by many hand tool users. If you go to a track meet, you will see runners line up at an oval track&#...

April 10, 2015. Filed under: Fair Woodworking and Hand Tool Blog. 8212; fairwoodworking @ 1:45 pm. Is there such a thing as an e-social disorder? I don’t think I have one, but then what is up with my apparent need to be anonymous on my blog, twitter, and Instagram? Well despite recurring dreams that I can fly but only when wearing nothing but a pancake on my head, I think I’m pretty normal. The truth is, I do it for a couple simple reasons. For my non woodworking friends, ignorance is bliss. Asked the qu...

The movers broke my woodworking mojo | Fair Woodworking
https://fairwoodworking.wordpress.com/2015/08/08/the-movers-broke-my-woodworking-mojo
August 8, 2015. The movers broke my woodworking mojo. Filed under: Fair Woodworking and Hand Tool Blog. 8212; fairwoodworking @ 2:01 pm. About a year ago I was elbow deep into choosing what moving company would be tasked to move all our worldly possessions. Except for one thing that neither of us thought to pack. The movers broke my woodworking mojo. Could my mojo have been in one of my other tools? Well two can play at that game! Until he gives it back. Come my children. Feed on his entrails! Life has c...

April 22, 2015. Fairwoodworkings Photography For Woodworking Dummies. Filed under: Fair Woodworking and Hand Tool Blog. 8212; fairwoodworking @ 12:49 am. Last week I attended a talk about Guilding (gold leaf), that was absolutely fascinating, and I have no doubt the guy that was doing the talk was one of the upper echelon in the world of guilders. I doubt that I will ever give it a try, but the concept is pretty cool. Before I go any further, I should mention that Chris Schwarz wrote about this last year.

October 22, 2014. Easy Woodworking Projects for Christmas. Filed under: Christmas Gifts. Fair Woodworking and Hand Tool Blog. 8212; fairwoodworking @ 9:04 pm. It’s way, WAY too early to be thinking about Christmas gifts (that’s what Christmas Eve is for), but as it would happen. I ran into a couple of people today that had big plans for Christmas woodworking. The funny thing was, that none of them were woodworkers. So what is the ideal NonWoodworker Easy project? Well, picture frames obviously! Follow Bl...

Spot the jointer | Fair Woodworking
https://fairwoodworking.wordpress.com/2012/11/18/spot-the-jointer
November 18, 2012. Filed under: Hand tools. 8212; fairwoodworking @ 6:40 pm. I guess this is the hand tool version of “Where’s Waldo”. How many of you immediately pointed out the Veritas Low Angle Jointer in the back? Well, you are not wrong, but you’re also not entirely right either. As I am typing this I’m sure there are hundreds of handtool forum armchair woodworkers out there that just got a cold shiver down their spine. Who am I to speak such blasphemy? What would Chris say? What would Cosman say?

Going Dutch on the Dutch Tool Chest | Fair Woodworking

July 21, 2014. Going Dutch on the Dutch Tool Chest. Filed under: Fair Woodworking and Hand Tool Blog. 8212; fairwoodworking @ 11:23 pm. Tool chests are stupid! I said it, and it feels good. I literally don’t like tool chests, but I also don’t really like to brush my teeth. However, like having teeth, owning tools may require some things we don’t like. I also don’t like, no screw that! I HATE top lifting lids. What a stupid idea! It’s a fool’s paradise. It was frigging heavy. In the past couple of years, ...
