The only thing better than your children are grandchildren - congratulations - it is wonderful.

I use this method with some small changes. 1. - I use a miter sled to cut to length and then the tenon cheeks which is quick, fast, accurate and safe. 2. - I cut the tenons on the band saw using a removable block so the reference edge of the piece is always up against the fence. Works flawlessly. See Timothy Rousseau's video. Thanks Timothy.

I am fascinated by planes and their use. My skills are improving and any information is helpful.

The minute I saw Haig's rocker I added it to my bucket list. Still there, but someday. Nice job. The dining table and chairs in the background are also interesting.

Having started down the path of replacing all of the wood furniture in my home will Arts&Crafts/G&G/Asian/Stickly style furniture I have designed and made, I would love to add this book to my collection.

It seems wierd to say that a bench is beautiful, but it is. I have had a Lie-Nielsen for about 8 mos and I love it. I have a friend with a Benchcrafted workbench, they do occasionally make a sell them, and he loves it. If I ever build a bench this would be what I would strive for. Great Job.

Nice piece. I am in the process of building a mahogany blanket chest but built in the Pennsylvania style with G&G influences. Yours is really elegant, and I hope the recipient appreciates the effort.

Great looking workbench. Make or buy that is the question. which shoulder vice did you use? I have heard some have a tendency to lift under load.

A tremendous resource and continuing inspiration. My thanks also.

Very unique and inspiring.

The only grandfather clock I have ever seen I would love to have in my house. Great work.

I would could have as much fun making the toys as my granddaughters would have playing with them.

Instructional live events would be great

If I were you, I would check out two things - child labor laws, and prevailing wage requirements.

I would really appreciate a copy of this book for my library. It can join Ernest Joyce's book which I refer to often.

I was indeed fortunate enough to attend Maloof's memorial and reception. I am in a state of stunned respect for an icon I did not know personally, but through these experiences somehow felt touched for a brief period of time. I will always remember these events, but more he has at this point effected my life and my woodworking.

First - unfortunately the poll only allows one selection.

My bench-top tools include jointer, planer, small router table with router, and scroll saw all mounted in a rolling cabinet with a second smaller rolling cabinet on which they mount when in use. A second miter table attaches to my simple workbench. A compound miter saw, disc-belt sander which are both mounted on their own dedicated stands. And finally a nice contractor table saw and a 14" drill press. All of this is contained in a non-oversized two car garage. As my skills are increasing, I have been able to to adapt them to my needs. As my need for accuracy increases, things are challenging but still doable. My next project is as upgrade on my workbench which is all planned and will be accomplished soon.

You mentioned a SawStop. I volunteer one day or so a week in a junior hi woodshop - frightening prospect. They amazingly have a SawStop cabinet saw. The tool is wonderful, not only safe but accurate, heavier than heck and stable as could be. Plus the riving knife is solid and easily removed. A great piece of engineering. Wonderful tool.

I work in a space similar to yours. Thanks for the ideas. - GT
