Weekend Plans - Woodworking 101

GeekyOnion@beehaw.org to Do It Yourself@beehaw.org – 8 points –

This weekend, I have some plans to finish up my miter saw stand, and do some other "puttering" around my shop. Putting together a list of actions, and their order, to help me keep myself accountable (:

  • Align the miter saw at 45 degrees (it's a hair off)
  • Align the tablesaw blade arbor to the miter slots
  • Cut the parts for six total drawers
  • Build drawers, and install

Miter saws are easy to align … except for that last hair, aren’t they? Anyway, you left off the critical “step back, have a beer, and pat yourself on the back” step.

I've always wanted to get into carpentry! This is so cool - hope all goes well!
