Chuck Bender's New Blog

I just stumbled across a blog by Chuck Bender, who runs the Acanthus Workshop. He has started posting step by step as he builds an Oxbow chest. Already in the two main posts Chuck has introduced a couple of techniques that had not occurred to me, including the modification of router bits to create a custom profile, and erasing part of a profile with a well set straight bit.

The blog is called Parings - A woodworker's journal. Check it out.

Rookster,

Thanks for stopping by my blog. And I really thank you for the link and post on yours. I'll make sure I stop by from time to time and check out what's going on. From what I've seen so far, it looks pretty good. Keep up the good work.

Hi Chuck, it's my pleasure to pass on good information when I see it.

Thanks for your comments at Popular Woodworking about the dovetails. All the information about period drawer construction was fascinating and sure to be useful in the future! I hope to see comments from you again!
