Homestead Heritage School of Woodworking
I’ve gotten a lot of hand plane questions over the past couple weeks. In light of the recent trend, here’s a good video on hand planes.
Chris Stevens
A nice video showing the build of a Fairlie 55 sail boat.
The Grain Doctor
This is another great video covering the use of a router jig to flatten a large wood surface.
David Reif
If you don’t have much wall space but do have room for another rolling cart in your shop a mobile clamp rack might be better for you.
The Met
Woah…..This definitely was not made at IKEA.
I think I’ve shared this one previously but it deserves another peak. Another jaw dropping work of art.
WeldedWoodWorks
An interesting cart setup.
Cosmas
I really like Cosmas’ video production as well as his completed table in this video.
FineWoodworking
These are and interesting addition to a workbench. Of course you must have a tail vise that they will work with but the concept is simple and great.
Hi Jay.
Watching your post before going work it’s the best part of my Saturdays. =)
Thank you.
I agree with Gaston, great way to sit back and enjoy my morning coffee on a Saturday morning. By the way, no errors or problems accessing you website or postings.
the writing desk and the secretary’s desk wow really cool amazing
I saw the “bench puppies” video earlier this week. I couldn’t find the plans anywhere that I could download, so I found the drawings in an article. Complete with notes and dimensions and built a pair of them. I used them a couple of times in the past 2 days. They work awesome.
Bob,
Sounds like you’re set, but the link to the article is in the youtube description.

I enjoyed very much the segment on the Fairlie 55 build. Here is another build; a lot more traditional design but with some very high tech refinements https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JnOCiVhbd2A&list=PLOJVQqVo5iAkzpZDPE6F8WxGJkuG-H1WY
A lot of videos here but they cover a huge amount of time and work. The schooner Bluenose is a cornerstone of Canadian maritime tradition.

I found the building of the Fairlie 55 fascinating. Awesome boat. I love the Interesting Stuff Around the Web fascinating. Keep up the good work Jay. Love your videoes.
Jay – thanks for including me this week! I really appreciate it.
Loved your selection this week. If I had to choose a favorite it was hands down the boat build. Very interesting process and the amount of hand carpentry involved was enlightening. Thanks jay for another interesting group from around the web!
