Case Study: Popular Woodworking Magazine

Lang. He's not only the executive editor at Popular Woodworking Magazine – he's also an accomplished SketchUp modeler who's just released an e-book on DVD. His Woodworker's Guide to Google SketchUp includes no fewer than 49 videos in-line with the text; that's hands-down the best way to learn, in my opinion.

We also used Scenes in SketchUp to visualize how the finished illustrations should best appear in print.

We are a small staff, and our editors wear many hats. SketchUp. This is a comprehensive reference, designed to teach woodworkers how to use the popular, free 3D design tool, Google SketchUp.

Fabriquez des meubles ...

Qu’est-ce que le Do it yourself ? Le Do it yourself ou DIY pour les intimes est l’art de réaliser par soi-même. C’est presque devenu un art de vivre de nos jours. Sans aller jusque là, je dois toutefois avouer que le do it yourself m’a amené une bonne dose de liberté : création de meubles sur mesure, choix des matériaux et gain d’argent sont souvent au rendez-vous … si l’on fait abstraction de l’investissement en matériel !

Sur ce point, rassurez-vous ! Sur cette page, j’ai rassemblé pour vous toutes mes réalisations. En route pour le Do it yourself … Association "Les Copeaux" Build a Drill Press Table. A table is a really great addition to any drill press, it provides extra support for your work and allows the use of inserts to prevent chip-out from the drill press, even if you don’t really need a fence just the table can be really quite useful.

Plans for the table and fence built bellow can be downloaded in the form of a Google Sketchup Model for free here: The video bellow demonstrates the processes involved in building this drill press table. The Table The first stage is to take the MDF or plywood board which will be used for the table, this could be any size, I made this one 350 x 500mm, as this will best suit the space I have. Two 6mm grooves are routed into the table to allow the fence to be positioned where needed.

Next a hole is drilled at the back of each slot so the fence can be dropped in place as shown above, avoiding the need to unscrew the bolts completely. ThisWoodwork.

Ratcheting Parallel Guide and Angled Leg Vises

It was one of those little tidbits I tend to file away in my head thinking I might try sometime. In the book the guide is a solid piece of iron with teeth cut in the lower side that engage a plate mounted to the leg of the bench. A simple foot lever arrangement raises the guide above the plate when you need to close up the chop of the vise. The two benches here are made to the same dimensions and lay out as the one I wrote about here some time back, with the noted changes of course. I did mine a bit differently. I the cut two small shoulders on the end that will attach to the vise chop and chopped the mortise to fit the guide. I used a piece of ¼in thick x 3/4in wide by 18in long mild steel bar stock for the toothed section.
