Actually a little bit of both.

Wow,
It's been a long time since my last post. Just wanted to let everyone know that I finally got back to work on this project over the 3 day weekend. Not really anything to post, just spent...
My how time flies. I have been working on the clock a bit. I got to the point that I need to turn 2 pcs but I did not have a lathe so I spent some time scouring Craigslist for something I wanted to...
The next step of this build is to make some fluted columns. The columns are to be 48 3/4" long and I don't know of to many lathes that will turn that size of part. Truth be told, I don't own a...
I was able to spend a bit more time in the shop this weekend. I had been waiting on my walnut plywood so I decided to glue up a small panel for the top of the clock out of solid wood. The results...
Well it has been a couple of weeks since I posted. I wasn't able to get out in the shop much last weekend, but I had a good day today. I got the sides and the front glued into a large assembly and...
Beautiful day in mid Michigan today. Well except that the Spartans lost, but good day to be in the shop! I started working on the sides of the clock case today. Got all of the parts milled using...
Well a bit of time in the shop and a bit of progress. Plans that I purchased are pretty well laid out. Basically a recommended step by step process which is nice. They give a pretty good work...
Well now that the cooler months are starting to creep up on us here in Michigan, I figured it was about time to decide what I was going to be doing all winter to keep my sanity during the snow and...
W.M.S. et al...
I apologize for not updating everyone. During the quote process, a couple of suggestions to improve the design of the part were given to me that I would like to incorporate prior...

A follow up to the dresser for my son last year. I finished off the bedroom set with a new bed and toy box as well. Hope you like the pictures.

Good Morning All,
I finally took some time to try out the new table and I am happy to say it worked well. I cut a couple of stools for the shop out of some repurposed melamine I had. The...
Very Nice!
Hello everyone. Sorry for not posting for a while. I got busy with money making jobs which is never a bad thing. I did however get some time this afternoon to pretty much finish up the table. I...
Am i right in thinking the current draw of these vacuum motors drops when there is less air passing through them?
I do not know that for sure. I have (2) 20 amp 110 circuits in the shop and run...
Updates
Well to keep everyone updated, I made a bit more progress. First of all I put the spoil board on and turned the vacuum on to assess the hold down. Nothing, Zip, horrible. Oh great I...
"You were talking about software back in 2014 - what did you end up going with?".
I never did find a software package that I liked. To be fair, I never paid for any of the cabinet software out...
Well after having given up on this project, I took some time off from it, but a recent series of events has made me get back at trying to make a vacuum table for my router. What that series of...
I am trying to draw some kitchen cabinets with crown molding and having a bit of trouble. I am able to get the crown on any one side of the cabinet, but cannot figure out how to get a transition...

7 years later and now my son wanted some furniture for his room. Started with the dresser and the bed to soon follow.

I am in the process of looking at redoing my shop layout. As I have accumulated tools the old layout is not efficient and squeezing that 4 x 8 router in makes it tight as well. Before moving abuch...
Just to keep everyone up to date, I have found someone to make this part. Thank you for everyones quote and interest. FYI, the prices ranged from 15.00 (seriously :tired: to $275.00. I did not go...
Maxumcaptain09 - either pm me or the email address is on the drawing.
W.M.S. - your assumptions are correct. Standard bar stock is sufficient no machining on thickness needed.
I am in need of 1 piece of the part shown below. I believe I have included enough info in the drawing for quoting purposes, but obviously more dimensions will be needed for manufacturing. If I am...
Part has been awarded. Thanks to all who submitted quotes.
