There are still a few things I’d like to try out in the shop. The circle project being a long-standing one. I’d like to do a small test to see what it’s like to CNC inlay wood circles on top of themselves. I also need to finish my lidded humidor project. I need to acquire more mahogany for that project, which entails a trip to Rockler. Going to Rockler is risky business.

I would also like to create a Jig for cutting miters. I can do them on the table saw now that I’ve removed the stabilizing clamps from the motor. I can do all sorts of angled cuts now, but I’d like to make a miter sled for the table top before I go too crazy. It would be nice to have a sled, and I’m honestly unsure why I haven’t built one yet.

So in order of importance: Miter sled, lidded humidor, circles on circles. I’m very excited that I can make angled cuts on the table saw now. I feel like a whole new world has been opened up to my woodworking. Last weekend I was able to make a myriad of 5 degree cuts to accomplish that fold out stool from my last blog post. I’m interested to see what that holds for my future.

I’ve been thinking about puzzle boxes as well. The artisan crafted puzzle chests and boxes are so interesting to me. As a person who fidgets, I’ve always loved hand held puzzles. Recently, the craft of actually making the puzzles has caught my eye. It would be cool to make something like that for my daughter, so she can hide her treasures in a place we won’t ever look.
