Part 4: A Unique Display Case
This last part in the series was the most challenging, and the most interesting. They wanted a display case large enough for a human to enter and turn around and be visible from 3 sides. Sometimes that person would be standing on a base that rotated and was 24 inches wide, but not always. With a little head-scratching, I came up with this: Initial drawing for the display box It would change a little as I went, but it stayed pretty faithful to that initial premise. My first issue was that, like all the other dungeon projects, it had to...

Now things start to get really interesting, in a medieval way. Centuries ago, lesser offenses were considered unworthy of jail time; instead the miscreant was put on display and the general public invited to insult, abuse, and otherwise make their lives miserable for a few hours (or longer). All kinds of devices were used for this, but the most recognizable of these were probably stocks (also called a yoke) that fit and locked around someone’s neck and wrists, or possibly ankles and wrists. When these devices were mounted on a fixed...

Once I had the crosses done, I moved on to the next item, which was two spanking benches. I ended up doing two different styles on this, one bench for “normal size” and smaller people and one for larger people. Smaller bench Initial drawing of the small bench The smaller bench is designed to fold up so it can be easily stored and carried. The “victim” kneels on the step at the front, folds their body over the top, and is secured by the wrists to the stock at the bottom. I had a photo of a real working bench to start...
read morePart 1: Crosses
First up was the pair of St. Andrew’s crosses, which are normally pretty straightforward. I looked at a lot of designs online, and the first thing that struck me is … well, they are almost all made out of ugly construction timbers. Heavy, plastered in polyurethane, and not at all pleasant to look at, but certainly plenty strong. I figured we could do better, and make it break down into pieces under 5 feet long so it could be transported in a car. I did find a set of plans for inspiration, but I deviated from them a lot as I went...
read moreOutfitting a Dungeon
It’s good to step outside your comfort zone once in a while, and this summer I had the opportunity to do just that. Without going into too much detail, some people that I know have a need for dungeon furniture that is knock-down and easily transportable. The application here is for a weekend convention, so the pieces will be stored in somebody’s house for most of the year and then come out when they have a show. The venue is usually a hotel ballroom, so it must all be freestanding and portable and to the extent possible...
read moreEverything is a Box
I have been doing a lot since May, it’s just not posted yet. I’ll be doing that. But first, let’s talk about boxes. Recently I took my first-ever professional woodworking course — after 30 years, I know, it’s about time! This was a treat because it was taught by Erik Curtis, of YouTube fame, and the name of the class was “Everything is a Box”. The idea was that people showed up, designed and made a box over a weekend. It was held at Goggleworks in Reading, PA, which is a great venue and I highly...
read moreFixing a problematic base
This project has been on my to-do list since well before my shoulder surgery. I love my Laguna bandsaw — it works well, adjusts easily, cuts nicely — but it’s a major pain to move around. The integrated mobile base didn’t work very well even when it was brand new, and mine has deteriorated to the point where the bandsaw will not roll straight or even at all easily. It also has no storage, which feels like a waste of space. But I had a good amount of scrap maple and some walnut plywood left over from the bathroom vanity...
read moreThree more boxes
I’m continuing my rehab assignment (aka, not going crazy while my shoulder heals up the rest of the way) with a couple more small things. The first was originally meant to sit on top of the toilet in our new bathroom, but I got the measurements wrong so it wouldn’t actually fit there. And of course I didn’t actually check until it was done. The first box The challenge to this was that I wanted curved sides. and to have the top wrap around in the form of corner posts. And, while I was at it, I wanted to do an inner tray. I...
read moreMaybe a touch of overkill
So … I finished my first project since the shoulder surgery. I’m not by any means all the way back to full strength, especially in certain shoulder-heavy moves (like lifting my arm?), but I have enough two-handed ability to be safe with power tools and handle limited stock sizes. I thought ahead for this, maybe too much, and decided my first projects should be small, simple, useful things for around the house. First on the list was a box to hold tea. Right now we have a myriad of different teas in different boxes and the counter...
read morePiano-key Coat Rack
I wanted to do something for my physical therapists, because they’ve been really good to me this year. (And, though they don’t know it yet, we’re not as done as they think. More on that later.) They often play classical music, so I figured why not make them a coat rack shaped like a (partial) piano keyboard? I’ve seen similar coat racks, and there are even a couple on Pinterest that adopt the piano theme. This one would be modest in size, only incorporating about an octave and a half for a finished length of just over...
