I love my little trim router, but for whatever reason Makita deemed it not fit for use with common Porter Cable (PC) guide bushings. Guide bushings are great for templates and use with jigs for bits without bearings. This will also apply to full size routers, but you’ll just need …
I’ve finally completed my router-table-in-the-table-saw-wing. This features a much upgraded fence over “v1”, and massive amounts of storage. The marquee feature is Precision Router Lift from the video sponsor, Kreg. Thanks for making this happen Kreg! Kreg’s lift allowed me to take full advantage of Timbecon’s new round router body (round body …
I really like the way kiss-cut-vinyl stickers look for the type of logo I have, so I wanted to replicate that for a shop sign that I could hang on the wall. Using the CNC and vinyl cutter, I made a light up shop sign using acrylic, MDF, far too …
Does 3D printing have a use in the woodworkers workshop? I needed a 100mm PVC DWV to 2.5″ flex hose adapter, and if I bought one off the shelf (if I didn’t forget to buy one first!), it wouldn’t’ have fit straight on the PVC without some sort of step …

Grab the free template Making your own mallet is almost a rite of passage for woodworkers, right up there with building your own workbench and making a chopping board. Until now, I’ve only been using a ~$10 or so wooden mallet from Bunnings. To be fair to the mallet, …
Power carving is fun – messy, but fun – and this was no exception. Making wall art with power carving is a great way to let loose and not worry about joinery, getting things square, and just generally focus on the fun parts of woodworking. This triptych is carved from …
Jarrah (thats Eucalyptus marginata, not E. Margarine) is a tree native to Western Australia. Rich red colour, heavy, and abusive towards your tools. I’ve put up a small playlist of jarrah projects from others https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLIAY4op1Uapg1h3im2Xw53YfmEoGP6dca&disable_polymer=true
Inspired by Box Throne but turned off by the metal looks, I wanted to make an attractive adjustable height shelf wooden storage cabinet for all my board games. Thus, Box Usurper was born. It utilises saw tooth shelves for the adjustable mechanism – more attractive and pointy than the average shelf …
