If you subscribe to the theory that a tool only needs to be as good as its function, then you likely also agree that a bookshelf need be nothing more than cinderblocks and 2 x 12s. –John Economaki

The TS-2v2 is the largest Bridge City try square with laser-etched scales on both sides of the 8” blade. X Exceptional design combines accuracy and durability with an

ergonomic handle. X Accurate to .002” on the outside and inside edges. X Use a marking knife with stainless steel blade without damaging the blade. X Blade incorporates an 8:1 dovetail cutout for quick, convenient dovetail layout. X “Positive grip” design means this try square can be used in many different orientations. X Both Imperial (English) and metric scale versions are available.

SHOP TALK School’s In: Women’s Woodshop By Teresa Audet

Minneapolis studio offers a welcoming and supportive environment for women and other makers.

Founded four years ago by Minneapolis-based artist Jess Hirsch, Women’s Woodshop seeks to empower those who often are marginalized in woodworking — a traditionally male-dominated craft and business.

L

ocated in an unexpected south Minneapolis storefront, the Women’s Woodshop is a cozy space stocked with beautiful lathes, a SawStop table saw and a few other stationary tools tucked into the corner. Here’s a “move the band saw to use the drill press” type of space. In back is the hand

tool room, at times set up with an eclectic assortment of benches for furniture-making class and other times with an intimate circle of chairs for spoon carving. Founded in 2016 by Minneapolis-based artist Jess Hirsch, the Women’s Woodshop offers a welcoming and supportive environment for

women and gender-nonconforming makers. Raised in Minnesota, Hirsch studied fine art at Lewis and Clark College in Portland, Oregon, then returned to receive her MFA in sculpture from the University of Minnesota. After several years of teaching spoon carving at local galleries and workshop spaces, she decided to create a permanent space for craft education. Although women have practiced woodworking for centuries, we still represent a very small percent of this field. By creating a space for those marginalized in woodworking to feel encouraged to learn and grow, the Women’s Woodshop hopes to empower more women and non-binary craftspeople with the knowledge and confidence to build a woodworking practice. Men are also welcomed to attend classes. Recent offerings have included several “101” style courses on furniture, power tools and bowl turning. Others classes focused on axe-handling skills, building a Shaker style table, spoon carving, wood block printing and weaving baskets from wood. Class sizes are capped

benchtop and full-size lathes that have 10" to 12" of swing capacity. The medium size fits 13" to 19" lathes, and the largest model is for full-size lathes with between 20" and 24" of swing. This is the model I am using on my Oneway 2436 lathe throughout this article. All three options are priced at just under $600. This blue Carter Products Hollow Roller Vessel Turning System is mounted to a Robust Scout benchtop lathe.

An overarm laser pointer on Oneway’s Complete Laser Hollowing System provides easy visual reference for wall thickness: when the laser beam drops off the edge of the workpiece, the user knows the correct wall thickness has been reached.

While TiN coating does wonders when cutting metal because chips will not stick to the tool, it is of questionable value to woodworkers other than to give the tip a pretty gold color. There are a number of turner’s gates on the market. The most popular is the Carter® Products Hollow

Roller™ Vessel Turning System (shown above). It costs about $360 and will fit most benchtop and full-size lathes. My students find this hollowing system easy to understand and use. Oneway offers three sizes of their Complete Laser Hollowing System (shown below). The smallest size fits

Laser Pointers A standard feature of turner’s gates is the ability to add a laser pointer mounted on a movable arm that places it about a foot or so above the workpiece and shining downward. The pointer is adjusted to shine at a distance from the cutting edge that is the desired wall thickness. As you remove material from the inside wall, you have a constant idea of how thick the wall is. When the laser beam drops off of the workpiece, the desired thickness has been obtained. It is a splendid idea!

Hollow Forms Workflow The order of workflow is important when hollowing a tall, slender form. Here’s a brief overview of the process: First, a suitable billet (either dry wood or green) is mounted between centers and turned round. A tenon is turned on one end for grabbing with an external hold in a four-jaw scroll chuck or for

photo 2). Once those were bored, I trimmed the outside curves and removed the inner waste piece at my band saw (see photo 3). Then, I fired up my benchtop spindle sander and gave the cutouts a final sanding to blend and smooth the curves (see photo 4).

Mounting the Brackets Attaching the shelf brackets to the back of the case isn’t hard, but what’s critical here is that these brackets are exactly parallel to one another and to the sides of the case. If they aren’t, they can bind when they are closed. I first positioned the wider (release latch) legs of the brackets 3" in from the narrow ends of the desktop and attached them to it with short screws driven into pilot holes. Then, with the brackets opened, I set the desktop into the case, pushed it up against the case top and adjusted it side to side for even clearance. I drew layout lines to mark the brackets’ narrower leg locations and attached the legs to the back with more screws. Test the up-anddown action of the desk, and make any

Carefully lay out locations for the shelf brackets on the case back and desktop panel. What’s most important here is that the brackets are parallel, so their mechanisms will raise and lower without binding. Attach the hardware with screws driven into pilot holes.

adjustments to the brackets until they articulate smoothly. With that done, remove them so you can prime and paint the wooden parts. Or topcoat them with your favorite clear finish. When the paint or finish dries, reinstall the hardware. Now, call a buddy over to help you mount this project to a wall. Of course, the right approach is to anchor the back to two wall studs, so locate their spacing with a pair of parallel layout lines on the inside face of the

case back. Have your helper hold the project in place on the wall so you can lift the desk surface up and decide on a working height that’s most comfortable for you. Mark six installation screw locations on your stud layout lines in the case. Drill pilot holes, and drive 3" deck screws into the wall to mount the desk. Then, put this handy desk to work! Jeff Jacobson is senior art director of Woodworker's Journal.

There's no reason why a practical, space-saving project like this needs to be pigeonholed to a shop setting! If you add one of these folding desks to your garden shed, you'll have a work surface for amending potting soil in a planter, changing the chainsaw spark plug or whatever task can be made easier by working at standing height. Same goes for the laundry room: a prop-up counter could serve as a place to set the iron while it cools or to fold socks. If the hunting shack is short on counter space, here could be a place to refill the lantern, dismantle a hand gun for cleaning or sort your tackle box lures. And don't overlook the ways you could customize the design further: the shallow space behind the desk could store a clipboard and drawing pad,

Desk open to 70 degrees

your measuring and marking tools or a rack of chisels. Add a groove or a simple pencil tray along the front edge of the desk, and you'll never have pencils rolling off. For even more durability, cover the desktop with a scrap of plastic laminate so it won't absorb stains or other chemicals while you're mixing or pouring them. And an additional point of note: these brackets have three locking positions from partially to fully raised (see photos, right). Here's a project with many possibilities!

Remove the clamps from the carcass so you can check the fit of the face frame on it. Its ends and edges should line up evenly. Give the face frame a quick sanding, if any of the joints need flattening, then glue and clamp the face frame to the front edges of the cabinet. Some woodworkers nail face frames in place, but glue alone is strong enough here.

Building the Door

Install the face frame on the cabinet carcass with glue and clamps. Some woodworkers use brad nails as well, but they really aren’t necessary — and you’d need to putty over the nail heads.

and bore them. Then, locate and mark the position of the middle rail on the stiles, using the Face Frame Drawing on this page as a guide. Assemble the parts by driving screws into their pockets — there’s no need for glue on these joints.

This cabinet’s door consists of a raised center panel of solid poplar, surrounded by a rail-andstile frame that enables the panel to expand

and contract. If you’ve never built a raised-panel door before, be sure to watch our “More on the Web” video at woodworkersjournal.com that overviews the machining process in detail. Then proceed by measuring the inside door opening on the face frame, and cut a pair of stiles 1/8" shorter than the opening. The rails will have

A pair of slide supports and a hinge mounting plate (being fastened in place here with glue and brad nails) raise the drawer slides and door hinge hardware so they’re flush with the face frame openings.

Butt this plate against the back of the face frame before gluing and nailing it permanently. With those tasks behind you, it’s time to drill a couple of 26 mm-dia. stopped holes in the door back for installing a pair of Mini Blum Frameless Inset Hinges. Locate these cup holes 2" in from the top and bottom ends of the door. Bore them on a drill press against a clamped fence for accuracy. Then, fit the doorside hinge components in these holes; align the hardware so it’s perpendicular to the door stile, and fasten the hinges with the included screws. Position and hang the door in its opening, driving the cabinet-side hinge screws into the hinge mounting plate. Check the door for proper swing clearance, and use the adjustment screws on the hinges to fine-tune these settings. Cut and install a triangular door stop against the back of the face frame to prevent the door from closing too far. Now it’s time to hang the drawer. Follow the instructions that come with the slide hardware to mount them inside the drawer opening. Be sure that the front ends of the cabinet-side components of the slides align flush with the back of the face frame. Fasten the drawer-side members of the slides to the sides of the drawer box with screws. Here, the front ends of the hardware should be flush with the front

of the drawer box. Once those are in place, fit the slides together to check the drawer’s alignment and action. Make any adjustments to the slides that are needed, then carefully mount the drawer’s raised panel framework to it. (Double-sided carpet tape can provide a “third hand” to get this framework temporarily centered before fastening it to the drawer box from the inside with 1"-long screws.)

Painting and Finishing Up Cut a plywood panel for the cabinet’s top, and band its front and side edges with 1/4" solid wood, glued in place, to hide the edge plys. When the glue dries, sand and install it on the carcass — ours secured with pocket screws. Then, miter-cut and install 3/4" moldings of your choice underneath the front and side edges of the top with glue. Once that’s done, your cabinet is ready for finish; remove the hardware as needed and apply a quality primer and paint, sanding lightly between coats. Install knobs on the door and drawer, and remount the metal hardware. There are many hardware or shopmade options for cabinet feet; we settled on blocks of glued-up walnut, tapering their two inside faces on the band saw. If you choose to do the same, install them with pairs of flathead wood screws.

Full-extension drawer slides like these have numerous slotted screw holes so they can be installed and then adjusted as needed.

Shop-made walnut feet, featuring a pair of tapered faces, add a dash of contrast to the cabinet’s bottom. Attach them with screws.

Tool Chest By WJ Staff

Help keep your hand tools and other small supplies organized and at the ready with this easy-to-build, two-drawer tool chest.

I

f one of your New Year’s resolutions for 2020 is to get your shop better organized, this easy-to-build, double drawer tool chest can help keep that promise. Ours is made of 1/4," 1/2" and 3/4" Baltic birch plywood — this is a practical shop accessory, not a jewelry box. We used Rockler’s Drawer Lock Router Bit in the router table to form sturdy, interlocking corner joints for the drawers. The case’s butt joints are reinforced with stepped Miller Dowels that are as easy to install as drilling holes and pounding them in.

Making the Drawers Your first inclination might be to make the tool chest’s case first, but then the drawers must be precisely fitted to

its interior. The easier route — especially considering the interlocking nature of the corner joinery and how that impacts final part sizing — is to make the drawers first and wrap the case around them. Start by cutting two 7 1 ⁄ 2 " x 13" pieces of 1/2"-thick Baltic birch plywood. They’ll yield all four upper and lower drawer sides. Install the drawer lock bit in your router table, then take a close look at the inset photo for photo 4 on the facing page. Notice that the geometry for a drawer lock joint consists of a tongue-and-groove profile on one piece that fits into a mirror image tongue-and-groove on the mating piece. Adjust the bit vertically so the cutter creates an equal-sized tongue-andgroove. Rockler offers a plastic setup block that can make

hen examining a piece of furniture, even non-woodworkers will often open drawers and search for that pleasing interplay of pins and tails that mark dovetail joints. In the same way, it’s hard not to fawn over a blanket chest adorned with through dovetails on its corners. There’s a truism at work here: dovetails are one of the calling cards of high craftsmanship. And, in spite of the fact that we woodworkers have other joinery options that also form equally rugged connections, they just don’t get the same nod of approval as

On the Level When I started routing dovetails 20 or so years ago, it didn’t take long to learn a few humbling lessons you may face, too. First, dovetail jigs aren’t panaceas for simplicity. If you hope to unpack a new dovetail jig on a Saturday morning and be milling flawless joints in an hour or two, temper your enthusiasm. To cut a properly fitting joint, most jigs will require that you fine-tune a combination of settings on both the jig and the router bit depth. The trouble is, achieving these critical settings isn’t always quick or easy to understand. Part of this challenge comes from the nature of dovetails themselves, regardless of how they are cut: pins or tails must fit their sockets within close tolerances. Joints with repeating geometry like these are also subject to cumulative error. Settings can’t begin to drift, even in the slightest, over the width of the parts or the joint will be progressively thrown out of registration. The wider the joint, the more important that every router pass is done with precision.

dovetails. So, it’s only natural that, sooner or later, you’re going to want to learn to make these interlocking, timelessly popular joints. At that point you’ll face a choice: learn to saw and chop them by hand — the classic method. Or buy a dovetail jig and whip them out with a router instead. Both are entirely viable options, but router-cut dovetails require less hand-and-eye coordination. They’re also quick to churn out, once your jig and router setup are carefully dialed in. If this power tool method seems a better fit for you, here’s what to keep in mind.

Then there’s the matter of a jig’s ease of use. I don’t envy the engineers who’ve been tasked to make their company’s dovetail jig simple to set up and operate, more versatile than the competition and still priced affordably for the average home-shop woodworker. It would be no small order! Some jig designs show the spit and polish of brilliant engineering: they’re a breeze to dial in and systematically troubleshoot so you know clearly what to tweak next. Others can be more enigmatic, suffering from design shortcomings or cryptic instruction manuals. Thankfully, I’ve seen dovetail jigs become generally more user-friendly over the years, and some fine new jigs have come to market, too. You’ll probably also be able to find YouTube videos for just about any dovetail jig you buy that can clarify details in the manual or offer tips and tricks to shorten your learning curve. With any jig, plan on making several test cuts before expecting a piston-fitting dovetail. And be patient with your process. You’ll get there eventually!

Woodworker’s Journal February 2020

Once a dovetail jig and router bit (or bits) are properly set up, you can machine dovetails quickly and easily for one drawer or a production run of as many drawers as you need.

Fine-tuning the settings on a dovetail jig can be time-consuming. Bit depth, stops on the jig and template adjustments all can impact how joints fit together. Mark the order of the test joints to keep track of your progress.

Adjustable-template dovetail jigs feature pairs of metal fingers that create tail cuts on one end and pin cuts on the other. You can alter their spacing and pattern by loosening set screws and sliding them left or right.

plate jig typically cut a pattern of pins and tails that have the same size and spacing. But optional templates can expand the range of joints to patterns with larger tails, irregular spacing between the pins and tails and even box joint styles.

Adjustable-template Jigs One of the benefits of learning to hand-cut dovetails is that you can choose any pattern of pins and tails that suits your preference and application. That’s impossible to do with a fixed-template jig; spacing is always predetermined by the template, and it can’t be changed. If customizing your dovetail joint layouts is important to you, an adjustable-template jig, such as the one on top of this page, can help. Here’s what makes this family of jigs distinct: a collection of paired metal fingers create the template that guides the router bit in a handheld router. One end of each pair of fingers forms a parallel slot for cutting tails with a dovetail bit. The other end of the fingers are angled to guide the pin cuts of the joint using a straight router bit. The same metal fingers will cut a range of joints in

both half-blind and through dovetail styles. Each pair of fingers can be unlocked and opened or closed to create wider or narrower pins and tails. Even better, adjusting one end of the fingers automatically dials in the other end for the mating cut. Pairs can be spread apart from other pairs along the jig’s mounting bars to vary the joint layout and

Once the tails of a through dovetail joint are routed on an adjustable template (inset), flipping the template over resets the jig for cutting the mating pattern of pins and tail sockets on the pin board.

spacing however you like. Once you set the pattern, tails are cut with the template oriented outward in the jig. To cut the pins, just flip the template over and reinstall, and switch router bits.

Other Variations If you’d rather not steer a heavy router over the top of a

The RTJ400 Dovetail Jig from Leigh Industries is a “top down” variation on the fixed-template concept: here, workpieces clamp above the template, which is fed over a router table. In this photo, through dovetail pins are being cut.

Woodworker’s Journal February 2020

All it takes are a pair of aluminum or phenolic templates, piloted dovetail and straight bits and two backup boards (inset) to mill through dovetails using a Keller & Company dovetail jig system.

Rockler Domino Drilling Template Not every woodworker has a CNC router, but don't let that stop you from making a few sets of dominoes if the urge strikes you. Rockler has a drilling template and a specially designed drill bit that makes this a totally manageable task for any home-shop woodworker. And while you could use the technique we practiced in the CNC-made dominoes — painting either the surface of the tiles or painting the dots — another great way to achieve good looking dominoes is as demonstrated in the images at right. Quarter-inch-thick walnut veneered plywood, when drilled, reveals a lovely white interior wood. How you finish them is up to you, but we would recommend applying a spray finish from a rattle can before you start cutting them out. Then touch up

with the same spray once they are cut. If you have a table saw, handheld drill and a router table, making dominoes can definitely be on your project horizon.

Rockler Domino Templates and Bit, with FREE Downloadable Domino Box Plan

I used 1/4"-thick hardwood stock to make the pieces. The CNC program is designed to make use of two 5"-wide by 24"-long blanks, with 14 tiles coming out of each piece. I’ll also add, there are two CNC routing programs to use here. Cleverly named “One” and “Two,” you’ll need to run both to get a properly configured group of 28 dominoes. Because it takes two boards to make one set, it’s important that you can register each board accurately on your machine. The benefits of being able to take a partially machined blank off the machine and return it for the rest of the cutting process will become even more clear in just a moment. In addition to using a backer board on my CNC Shark’s deck, I mounted location blocks with screws to position each piece of hardwood exactly. (This, of course, only works if each piece of hardwood has exactly the same dimensions.) With this system, you only set your X and Y coordinates once. I recommend setting your Z-axis for each piece of wood — it only takes a second. You need two router bits to machine the tiles, the first being a V-bit. Ralph Bagnall, our CNC programmer, recom-

Woodworker’s Journal February 2020

The author used a setup board to help place location blocks on the MDF backer board. This allows consecutive hardwood blanks to be aligned accurately. The blanks need to be identical in size — in this case, 1/4" x 5" x 24". Two blanks are required to create one complete domino set.

mends a high-speed steel downspiral like the Onsrud bit sold by Rockler (#28741). I used a 1/4" down-shear finishing bit, which I think is pretty similar. It did a fine job. The first process is using the V-bit to score the dividing lines in the center of each tile and also drilling the holes. As I mentioned earlier, there are two sets of tiles — one set per board — and the hole patterns are

the difference between the two. The cutout program is the second of the two to run. It leaves small tabs on each tile to keep them from flying around the room as they are cut free of each blank.

Planning Ahead While making these tiles is not exactly the most demanding woodworking a person will ever do, there are still

CNC router to make a set of dominoes,

please visit woodworkersjournal.com and click on “More on the Web” under the Magazine tab.

Using a V-bit, the divider lines are engraved into the surface of the domino stock. Here, the maple stock is painted black so that the routed lines are easily seen. The paint is non-toxic when cured.

There are two engraving programs required to make a complete set of 28 dominoes. The dot patterns will be different from each other. A CNC router makes quick work of drilling the many holes.

opportunities to be a bit creative and have some fun! Let me explain. Most of the images here show dominoes being made from maple lumber. The maple was painted black to allow the scribed lines and the drilled holes to show through the paint. As you can see, it worked great, creating nice black dominoes with white dots and divider lines. Taking that two-color idea to the next level, I also used some wenge stock and put a lacquer finish on the wood before machining it. When the lacquer cured, I then put a layer of Frog Tape on top of the board and used the CNC to cut the divider lines and the tile holes. At this point, I took the blank off the machine and painted the dividers and holes white. (Quick tip: it does not work to just spray the masked-off blank with a rattle can of white lacquer to color the dots and lines, or the paint tends to go on too thick.) So with the Frog Tape still in place, use a stiff paint brush to paint the holes and lines by hand. It does not take long at all. Once it dries, remove the tape and step back to the CNC machine. Using the location blocks, slide the blank in place, secure it to the backer board and cut out the dominoes. The wenge version looked so good that I repeated the process using padauk wood and painting the dots and dividers black. They looked great too. When the tiles are cut out, the CNC leaves small tabs connecting the tiles to the larger blank. Carefully break the tiles free and then sand the tabs flush to the edges of the tile. I used a benchtop belt sander and actually sanded all four edges of each tile smooth.

in. This ToughSystem unit has a large compartment for storing a phone, tool battery and the power cord. Robust side latches make it modular and stackable with other ToughSystem storage boxes. Negative Rake Cutters from Easy Wood Tools create smoother, safer cuts when turning resin or acrylic on a lathe. Instead of having a neutral rake angle like other insert cutters, these carbide cutters have faces that slope away from the cutting edge; the geometry virtually eliminates chipping and chatter. EWT offers Negative Rake Cutters in three styles: a square Rougher, a round

Finisher and two sizes of diamond-shaped Detailers. They range in price from $16.99 to $23.99 each. Following from the success of its Voyager 18" DVR Floor Drill Press, NOVA™ now offers a smaller Viking 16" DVR Benchtop Drill Press. The infinitely variable-speed, direct-drive motor has no belts or pulleys to change. Smart sensors deliver optimal speed and constant torque throughout the machine’s 150 to 3,000 rpm speed range. Forward and reverse spin, an electronic depth stop, a self-start for one-handed drilling and an electronic brake are other benefits of its DVR technology. NOVA equips the motor with a large, easy-to-read LCD display that can be set to decimal, fractional or metric readouts. A built-in LED light helps to illuminate the machine’s cast-iron table, and a pair of crosshair lasers provide pinpoint accuracy for locating hole centers. The lasers stay aligned, even when the table is moved

Rockler’s Router Bit Center/ Depth Gauge (item 55010; $19.99) combines a 12" steel rule with a nylon foot and locking arm to help set the distance from the center of a 1/4" or 1/2" router bit to the fence: just hook the tool onto the bit shank, then slide the fence over until it touches the gauge. To use it for setting blade or bit height, simply adjust the gauge arm using the rule’s imperial or metric graduations, rest its foot flat on the table and raise the cutter until it touches the arm.

SIX SIMPLE FINISHES #1 Stain Finish for Highly Figured Wood By WJ Staff

In the first of our six-issue series of finishing recipes, we tackle the task of adding color to highly figured wood like fiddleback maple.

etting a great finish on the project you’ve just completed is a task that some woodworkers dread. And that concern is elevated if the wood you are using is one that is known to be finicky to stain — like highly figured maple or cherry. Typical pigment-based stains — oil- or water-based — often splotch badly on highly figured wood. One great way to add color and finish at the same time is to use a product like a tinted Watco Oil. On close-grained woods it pops the grain, adds color and builds up a finish all at once. And once you

have the color you want and the Watco cures sufficiently, you can apply additional coats of oil-based polyurethane to create a thicker film coat. But the color options available with that method are limited, and really dark colors of tinted Watco don’t work well on close-grain woods.

Dye: Rich, Even Color A more versatile and effective way to add color to highly figured hardwood is enumerated in the stepby-step at left. By using dye, your color options are almost unlimited, and it is well suited to this type of stock. The molecules of the dye are so small that they penetrate and color the wood deeply and evenly. Suspend the dye in water and test the mixture on scrap wood prepared in the same fashion as your project. You can always add more dye to the solution. The color intensity of the wet dye solution is what the wood will look like when a clear finish is applied over the dried dye. You can glue dyed stock as you would raw lumber, so pre-finishing is not a problem — even on parts that will receive glue.

Once the dye has dried, polish the surface with a fine synthetic pad and apply a sealer coat. We recommend a shellac-based sealer. When it cures, you can apply a polyurethane (oil- or waterbased), lacquer or a standard varnish for more protection.
