IMG_3650.jpgWhen the sixth box delivery of the day was slit open .. 17 views... the contents definitely were not the other item being awaited for the day's shipments. No indeed, a whole cubic foot of mahogany shavings tried to escape onto the family room furniture and carpet, but were quickly forced back inside. A quick check of the shipping label revealed the culprit .. err ... Elf over in Asheville NC had been at work. A little creative stretching of an elfin sack, and six objects nicely wrapped in holiday paper appeared from within the shavings.Charlie Driggs

Virginia_corner_cabinet1.jpgEastern shore of Virginia corner cabinet171 viewsI began this two years ago in a class with Lonnie Bird at the Lonnie Bird School of Fine Woodworking, and just got back to finishing it up. While most Eastern shore of Virginia corner cabinets were painted pine, a few were made in walnut. These were typically build by finish carpenters rather than joiners. These carpenters used elements they were familiar with in building homes in the Eastern shore. Glazed doors, arched top doors, raised panel doors, strong bases, fluted pilasters, set-back capitals, etSgt42RHR

20131029_3488ss.jpgSpiers Panel Plane w parallel 5/32" Sorby iron415 viewsEven though I can slip 0.046 inches of feeler gauge into the mouth, it can consistently produce cherry shavings between 0.001 and 0.002 inches - provided the cap iron aka chip breaker is set back the absolute minimum my eyes can detect - with magnification. Would a tighter mouth make it any more useful?Schwartz
