crafting a bench inspired by George Nakashima

I am crafting a bench inspired by George Nakashima. I am using a maple slab that has been in my shop for three years. It patiently waited until it revealed its purpose to me. Embracing Nakashima’s philosophy of natural beauty, I won’t be filling all the voids with epoxy. Instead, I’ll let the wood speak for itself. To finish it, I’ll apply my beeswax and oil blend, enhancing its natural charm. Please sign up and support a local craftsman

Hand tool Dado explained

In this post, I’ll explain how I create a dado using hand tools. I prefer hand tools for several reasons. The main reason is the tactile experience of feeling the tool cut through the wood. This process is accompanied by the soothing sounds of smooth jazz in my workshop. It feels more creative compared to the loud, intense noise of power tools. The noise can sometimes feel like a rollercoaster ride with a sharp blade spinning at high speeds. It’s ready to catch something or cause an accident.

For this particular project, I used a veneer saw to cut along the edges of my marked dado. Then, I chiseled out the waste and cleaned it up with my Lie-Nielsen hand router. I enjoyed the music of Michael Bublé while working. It’s not that I dislike power tools; they have their place and are sometimes necessary. Nonetheless, if you’re skilled with hand tools, you can be just as efficient. This is especially true if you’re a hobbyist or a one-off furniture maker like me. In those cases, there’s often no need for most power tools beyond a bandsaw, table saw, and thickness planer.

Shop small

Shop small business

Hey everyone,

I just wanted to drop a little reminder about how amazing it is to support small businesses and artists. Choosing to live a creative life on our own terms is no easy feat, and many of us have spent years honing our craft and making sacrifices to turn our passion into a living. Doing what you love and making a living from it is incredibly freeing, but we often find ourselves competing with big businesses that focus solely on profit and mass-produce the same old stuff (yawn!).

By shopping small, you’re not only supporting our dreams but also contributing to a more beautiful world. So, whenever you can, please consider choosing small businesses and artists. We’re not trying to take over the world; we just want to make it a more beautiful place.

Thanks so much for your support!

Warmly,
Brian Anderson

My Journey with the Lie-Nielsen No. 5 Hand Plane

My Journey with the Lie-Nielsen No. 5 Hand Plane

When I first laid my eyes on the Lie-Nielsen No. 5 hand plane, I instantly understood why it’s called the “jack of all trades” in the woodworking world. I spend countless hours in my workshop. I was looking for a tool that merged versatility with precision. This plane seemed to offer just that. Designed for flattening, smoothing, and trimming wood, it felt like the missing piece in my ever-evolving collection of tools.
