Woodworking

Shop Ideas

• Flickr post of some good shop ideas.

Stains

• Stuff on DK guest room dresser and bed: Genarl Finishes water based dye stain.
  • Black Cherry Wood Stain
  • Cinnamon Dye Stain.
• Try General Finishes Enduro Var or Target's EM 2000. Both have a nice amber color reminiscent of a oil based varnish.
• Rustoleum Varathane/Polyurethane Recommended by Sakurama.

Techniques

• Lock Miter Joint
• YouTube vid on how to clean an brush used for oil based stuff...recommended by Sakurama of GarageJournal.

Tools

• Manual Miter Saw
• Wire Bender

Router Table

• Jessem Looks solid and comes recommended over the Festool unit in this LumberJocks Review of the Festool unit
• The Festool router table sounds pretty nice but also has some semi-mixed reviews, especially considering the price. Need to do a bit more research.
• BenchDog Router Table also sounds like a solid option. BenchDog ProMax-RT cast iron top, available as top only, could build own base or even use saw horses or something. Could be more versatile and storable... hrmmm.
