I made reference to this project a couple of weeks ago in another post. It’s a small gift I made for someone I consider to be a very close friend, even though we’ve only known each other a matter of months. I’ve kept it a secret until now just in case she happened to stumble … Continue reading Hand-Picked Box

I actually filmed this several weeks ago, when I needed to cut some 2mm oak veneers (9in deep!) … Continue reading New Bandsaw Video!
As mentioned in a recent post, Ian John is back in business trading under the name of Tuff Saws. I’ve been happily using a Ā½”x4tpi thin-kerf blade since December but today’s post is all about a “Fastcut” from the Supertuff range.
