WoodWonk<p>My latest woodworking project is a floor stand for our Ashford weaving loom. This project took about 8.2 bd-ft of 4/4 ash. It was mostly machine work on the band saw, table saw, jointer, planer, drill press, and sander. Finish was several coats of Watco Danish Oil ("Natural" color). </p><p>It's similar to the stand Ashford sells for their looms. It was fun refreshing my high school geometry and trigonometry to come up with the dimensions. Like the loom itself, the stand folds flat for transport or storage. </p><p><a href="https://mindly.social/tags/woodworking" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>woodworking</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/weaving" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>weaving</span></a></p>

jonathankoren™<p>Years ago, I got these ketchup packet samples of wood stain from… somewhere, and I don’t think I’ve ever seen them again. Although, I can’t be 100% sure, because I haven’t explicitly looked for them.</p><p>Has anyone else seen these things? I’m afraid I got them at OSH (RIP). <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/woodworking" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>woodworking</span></a></p>

Bryan FinkIn the same way some people say they're logging off to "go touch grass," I often say I'm going to "go make sawdust." But while I think the grass is often figurative, I assure you the sawdust is quite literal.<br><a class="hashtag" href="https://couch.beerriot.com/tag/woodworking" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#woodworking</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://couch.beerriot.com/tag/makingsawdust" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MakingSawdust</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://couch.beerriot.com/tag/touchinggrass" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#TouchingGrass</a>
Dave Sparks (Bit Wrangler)<p>Made a xylophone for my grandson (just turned 10 months old). He caught on to it quickly and seemed happy and excited to bang out some notes on it.

Ronan Le Hy<p>I'm in the final stages of building a door for my son, out of ash. Doing this by hand is a marathon, I've been at it for several months now (with several smaller projects interspersed). I need to glue it, then fit it, put the hardware, finish it, hang it : it is not quite done yet. <a href="https://mas.to/tags/woodworking" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>woodworking</span></a></p>
