I based it on the cart described <a href="https://www.3x3custom.com/tutorials/2017/8/30/rolling-scrap-wood-storage-cart-5lcsn"> here </a>. 🔨🪚</p> <p><img src="https://cdn.uploads.micro.blog/69605/2025/0f9582bc37.jpg" width="450" height="600" alt="A wooden storage unit with shelves is positioned on casters in a workshop setting."><img src="https://cdn.uploads.micro.blog/69605/2025/3988c8e3de.jpg" width="450" height="600" alt="A wooden cart is filled with various sizes of wooden planks and boards in a workshop setting."></p> https://palousegeo.com/2024/02/15/simple-jig-for.html Thu, 15 Feb 2024 11:24:38 -0700 http://palousegeo.micro.blog/2024/02/15/simple-jig-for.html <p>Yesterday, I was hand-sawing some plywood panels when I had an idea for stabilizing the task. I started the cut and then clamped a scrap of wood across the cut. This stabilized the board, made it easier to cut straight , and there is no splintering at the end of the cut. I&rsquo;m sure this is not an original idea, but I&rsquo;m happy to have discovered it. 🪚🔨</p> <img src="https://cdn.uploads.micro.blog/69605/2024/img-2095.jpeg" width="450" height="600" alt="Hand saw in board with stabilizing jig"> https://palousegeo.com/2024/02/05/i-received-the.html Mon, 05 Feb 2024 19:00:49 -0700 http://palousegeo.micro.blog/2024/02/05/i-received-the.html <p>I received the vintage rabbet plane I purchased on eBay today. I just had to sharpen the iron. I spent the afternoon teaching myself how to use it.🪚🔨</p>
