A seat in the sun
Jim Robinson  |  Feb 06, 2009  |  0 comments
Almost fifty years ago, I constructed a garden seat based on a design in The Woodworker by Charles Haywood. It was made in Japanese oak and has given good service over the years, but it’s now sadly beyond any further patching up, as the photograph below left shows. This seat which forms the subject of this project is a replacement made with European oak. It’s 4ft 3in wide and stands almost 3ft high at the back (see fig 1). Stock…

Its a new year but Andy King is turning back the clocks with a masterclass on saw sharpening in this issue. This really is chapter and verse, from topping, through dressing and onto setting with all those tricky little issues like fleam filing explained along the way. Okay, hardpoint saws may make saw sharpening entirely optional these days, but should a craftsman not be fully understanding and caring of his tools?

Martin Aplin makes the…

Ian Taylor has produced this months lead item in Projects. A fine, and quite sizeable, chest made in oak, the project combines both hand and machine work to produce a very fine piece. Curiously Gordon Warr too has a chisel to hand as he cuts recesses for hinges on his mahogany pendulum clock. Meanwhile Keith Smith is putting his woodworking skills to the matter of creating a mould for a fibreglass cyclone to aid his workshops extraction system…
