Another nice Lathe build
Bit fancier than I would have built. But still a nice build and the author has plans available. http://www.rcturka.com/wooden-lathe-making-pdf.html

Making a handheld planer into a tabletop
Nice build, the author made a nice jig for the planer to basically plane down boards to a given size.

Nice knob jig
Nice build for a jig to make knobs. Me…I just hand cut them for now. This build is nice cause it can be used for different number of grab points on the knob.

Interesting jig for table legs on a tablesaw
The build allows for the leg to be tapered, and then spun to round it out. Interesting take if you do not have a lathe. I can see making a baseball bat this way too.

Combine vinegar, steel wool, and coffee grinds to make wood stain
I got a kick on this one. Pretty cheap solution to make a simple woodstain to use. Me…I just get a $5 can myself…all pre-mixed and ready to go. https://www.familyhandyman.com/woodworking/staining-wood/how-to-stain-unfinished-wood-with-used-coffee-grounds/

Nice drill press table build
Nice build, I like how it has built in grooves to hold the clamps down. Me…I bought a cheap table at Harbor Freight for $30. https://www.instructables.com/id/DIY-Drill-Press-Table-and-Fence/
