easy wood projects


Its been a while since Ive posted - been caught up in a few other projects (restoring the Robert Green site over at ModusModern, working on my broke truck, and others to name a few). I did pick up a couple of new "old" woodworking tools that might be of interest though. These are from the week of August 13th, 2007 so Ive had a little time to look them over (pics were taken the day I got the shaper though).

Saw an ad Monday (8/13) for the Jointer for $50 and picked it up on Tuesday. Its a bit unusual and not exactly the same as those similar models on the OWWM Mothership - I think its pretty early by the serial number tag and its missing some bits (crank handles). It spins up well on that crappy 2x4 homemade stand and the Dayton motor works (even though it sparks a bit). The table is a bit rusty but doesnt look pitted and the rest is in pretty decent shape. Shouldnt take too much to get it right.









Saw an ad for the Craftsman Shaper on Thursday (8/16) and picked it up on the way home from work - $100 with 27 cutters, wrenches, etc. He threw in the Rockwell miter gage since he didnt have the original, optional Craftsman one. I like the original stand - also the serial numbers are slightly different from those on the OWWM Mothership so I think this is a new entry.










Ive been told those cutters go for $5 a piece so I basically got the Shaper for free. Its neat and ready to go - Ill probably do a bit of clean up and tweek it some but otherwise its ready to profile some wood! The miter gauge Im addingi to my Unisaw.
