In the latest issue of The Woodworker:
Top Drawer - David Smith turns an exercise in cutting dovetails into an exquisite two-drawer unit that could grace a hallway, serve as a bedside cabinet or give a table lamp a home in the living room.
A seat in the sun. Gordon Warr finds some slabs oak in his stockpile. decides that they're not of cabinetmaking standard and uses them instead to make a traditional two-seater garden bench.
Routine hinge recesses. Alan Holtham describes a clever little router jig he's designed to make light work of cutting hinge recesses. It features a range of different hinge templates that fit on a mounting batten.
Needle store. Ian Wilkie presents a box with a difference - a long, slim version that's tailor-made to house a collection of knitting needles and stop them disapearing down the back of the sofa.
A stitch in time…Leith Smith says that wooden windows and doors often need just a modicum of maintenance to keep rot at bay and restore their function and their looks and more.
