Second hand Sheds Idea Wood Working Plans
Have you ever thought of buying sheds for you to have an extra space for your stuff? Or do you also have a plan to make that shed as stable for your farm animal? OK let me give you one quick tip; you must consider yourself on buying used sheds. It’s cheaper than having a new one; all you need is little renovation. Examine the whole foundation of the shed you are about to buy. Calculate how much will be the complete cost if you are going to renovate or decorate the shed. Try to find if there’s a hole on the roof.
Sheds are made on three different models, it could be a plastic shed, metal, or the most common is wooden shed. As for me, I do have my own shed placed at my backyard. It serves as my working place where I can finish my woodworking stuff. It’s much better to work there compared to basements and attic because unlike those places, sheds are not hot places. I also put a mini stable for my horse and I install a mini fence for him. Used sheds are made for so many reasons so it’s big necessity for to have that.
Two blocks away from our house, my neighbor and a friend also bought a shed and he makes it a garage. He is a mechanic, he utilizes the space by putting his mechanical machines and there he works for a living. But before that I gave some ideas on buying sheds.
In buying these used sheds, we must be also particular about how old is this shed since it was made; we don’t want to see wood termites marching on the corner. Next and also important is the electricity system. Check the lines and the cables if there are some live wires. Last year, over twenty-two percent of fire accident report has started into this shed so we must be really careful especially when it’s summer.
To make our used sheds looks brand new, try decorating the exterior part. Brush and paint the walls so it would be good looking from the outside. In the inside, make it a point to have a general cleaning once a week since these sheds are more prone to dust since it’s an open place. Having shed is not a waste of money at all so guys regardless if it new or used sheds, it will always have a big help to give us.
If you want to get more tips like this, then you should get a copy of the IDEA WOOD WORKING PLANS. It is a great a comprehensive guide which will teach you every thing you need to know about wood working!

Cutting boards new design discussion and plans
Hi Everyone,
Well, I got a new garage door today, to replace the old, much patched one. This one is insulated and should make for both a warmer home in winter and a cooler one this summer.
As soon as work finished on the door, I got to work on a new breadboard. My old ones were round, flat, and not much else. Since both sides of the board have to be turned and worked on, I didnt have a method for attaching the board blank to the lathe without drilling holes in or cutting a tenon. This results in a cutting board with holes on the top-not a very satisfactory situation.
Then I remembered turners tape. Turning tape is a heavy duty, cloth tape that is sticky on both sides. Its so sticky that if you touch it its like trying to get unstuck from super glue. This enables a wood turner to attach a blank to a faceplate and then to the lathe without drilling holes at all. So one face of the board will be solid and smooth. Lets take a look:
I had a very wide piece of white ash in the wood pile that was too thin to turn into a tray or a dish but would be just right for a cutting board. I fished it out and measured it and cut it into a big circle


The tape is first applied to the face of the faceplate. The surface has to be perfectly clean and the wood has to be smooth and dust free:

Next I placed the face plate exactly in the center of the blank and pushed down:

Since this type of tape is pressure sensitive, I placed several bricks on top of the faceplate and let that whole thing sit for about 20 minutes:


Here we are after about 30 minutes of work. Ive cut a small cove for fingers to grab onto, and smoothed and sanded the surface. The tenon is still there.

I flipped over the blank and attached it to the chuck and turned the surface. It had to be smoothed and flattened, another cove cut at the edge for fingers to grip on and a juice groove along the edge. This is the top of the cutting board...

...and this is the bottom.

Ive taken the bricks off and mounted the blank on the lathe. This seems very sturdy even though there are no screws holding the plate and the blank together. Im going to sharper my tools and take very gentle shallow cuts to flatten and smooth the surface. In this photo you can also see that Ive cut a shallow tenon for the 4 jaw chuck to attach to when I turn it over:

Here we are after about 30 minutes of work. Ive cut a small cove for fingers to grab onto, and smoothed and sanded the surface. The tenon is still there.

...and this is the bottom.

I am going to re-attach it to the faceplate with tape again and tune off the mortise and tenon and very gently dish out the center of the board then sand it smooth. I suspect by doing this the board will continue to sit flat and stable if warps a little bit.
So Im going to break for coffee and lunch and Ill be back shortly.
