Wood working Weekly Quick Questions, Wood ID, and Deal or No Deal /r/Woodworking Megathread

---

• Weekly Quick Questions, Wood ID, and Deal or No Deal /r/Woodworking Megathread
• Combined two hobbies on this one. Built a wooden NES
• I keep telling myself this is a corner shelf but its really just another toy for Ms Clawford. The idea here was to build a climbing feature for my cat & bonus storag. This my first attempted at tapered dovetail rails. They're definitely not all perfect, but surprisingly strong & seem to b holding up
• Needed a nightstand and didn’t have much room, tried out the “floating” look and added a wireless charger where the phone rests
• Cocobolo ring box with topography of where I proposed!
• Started off in the boiler room. Then came the great garage wars between me and my dad. I won. He wanted space for a car I wanted four workbenches. Unreal how impactful woodworking has been on making me a happier person
• I made a jig to taper some half-lapped joints, then brain.exe encountered an unrecoverable error.
• So close to being able to assemble this mid century writing desk I’ve been working on for my dads birthday! It’s turning out just as nice as I’d hoped
• 2nd freehander, 8’ long 29” wide (slab)
• Cherry and Curly Maple end table. Finally took some good pics, stoked on how it came out.
• Added some cedar planks on stainless steel posts to my house’s fascia. Not tremendously intricate or masterful, but I like how it turned out, and I had to rip a lot of 2x4s and use the hell out of my shop a drill press to get all these pieces right.
• My wife sent me a picture of a mashed up plastic tub upside down under her desk asking me if I could maker her a foot rest. I hope she likes it and finds comfort on it. Doug Fir, Stone, Spar varnish.
• Black Walnut End-Grain Cutting Board. Wood was a Craigslist find from a retiring woodworker.
• 22 pallets, 48 beers and 2 packets of crisps
• Radial deck with hidden hatch built above abandoned swimming pool
• A mount for my planer I made a few years ago. Hope you enjoy the concept.
• Homemade urn for my father’s cremains. His knowledge of all trees/shrubs always impressed me. Top and bottom are black walnut, oak, cherry, and birch. Sides are black walnut with two thin cherry strips.
• Just finished this up. This is the way.
• The second thing I’ve ever made on a lathe!
• Woodworker makes huge dog house for huge dog.
• I admire the quality of craftsmanship most post here, and though this is nowhere near that quality, it’s my first project proud enough to post. Just have to finish painting that trim (explanation of this sin in comments). This is my third protect I’ve ever completed: 10’ bookshelf/new computer desk
• First desk I've ever made. Cypress tops and drawer faces stained barn red. Made it as a console for my music room.
• Birthday present for my wife to move the plants in for the winter!
• Memorial bench i made for my Grandad.
