Woodsmith – April 2022
English | 72 pages | pdf | 106.22 MB
An issue of Woodsmith Magazine comes together over two months. Well, project development takes longer. But in those two months, themes sometimes emerge. You’ll find two such themes in this issue. The first is router techniques.
The dresser, air cleaner, the chest, and the watering vessel all rely on extensive router techniques or jigs for key elements. The router in my shop is my favorite portable power tool. There are just so many things you can do with it. So I think it’s fun that these projects show off those capabilites. A second commonailty is red oak. I’ll admit to holding a bias against red oak due to the careless use of flat sawn oak in so many projects over the years. Too much wild grain patterns. But the chest and bench in this issue show off some of the strengths for this common and inexpensive material. Logan Wittmer has even decided that 2022 is the year he rescues red oak. We’ll see how it goes. Let me know about any material you avoid — and favorite tools. Happy woodworking!
