Few of our projects have generated as much enthusiastic response as the surface sander that appeared in
our October, 1985 issue (p. 48). It sounds as if this
homemade tool filled a void in a lot of workshops.
Here's the latest tip we received from a reader who
built one:
When using the shopbuilt thickness sander to sand
boards 6 wide or less,
wind onehalf of the drum
with medium paper and the
other half with fine, instead
of removing the sandpaper
to change to a finer grit.
Use strapping tape to hold
paper on the drum.
Another piece of tape is
used to divide the infeed
table. I am now looking
for pillow blocks that easily
can be removed so that a
'-"~-----_--I
set of drums with different grits of paper can be
made up and changed as needed.

No soap
Yuck! You use a bar of soap to
lubricate wood screws, but it's a
mess keeping the soap damp. In
addition, soap can cause rusting.
TIP: Someone finally has found
another application for the wax
gaskets used as toilet bowl seals.
The wax is ideal for lubricating
screws and nails and reduces the
chance of breaking screws driven
into hardwood. It will not attract
moisture and can be purchased at
your local hardware store.

Mirror image in half the time
Drawing half of a full-size pattern is hard enough, but matching the pattern for the other side
is just as taxing.
TIP: Draw one-half of your pattern on a piece of folded paper.
Fold and insert: a piece of carbon
paper, carbon side out, into the
folded pattern. Then trace the
pattern, open the paper, and
unfold a fullsized pattern with
identical halves. Now transfer
your "perfect" pattern.

Chip-free dadoing
on the table saw
It's all roo easy to chip the thin
veneers covering plywoods when
you use dado blades and a dadoblade insert on your table saw.
TIP: Make your own insert that
will unclergrid the plywood (or
any wood, for that matter) with
support and reduce chipping. With
a scroll saw, band saw, or jigsaw,
cut out an insert blank from the
correct thickness of plywood or
solid stock. After you've mounted
the blades, install and secure the
blank. Then raise the blades to
the proper cutting height. Now
you will be cutting with maximum support.

Working properties
Despite ash's strength and
toughness, you still can
work it readily with either
hand or power tools.
When steam-bent, it holds
its shape admirably.
The wood's dose grain
gives it high nail- and
screwholding power. Gluing poses no problems,
nor does sanding and finishing. Ash works to a
beautiful natural or
stained finish. Darkened,
it imitates oak.
Uses in woodworking
The same abuse-resistant
properties that make ash
the commercial choice for
tool handles make it ideal
for chairs and other furni
ture. Because it doesn't
impart any taste, ash is
also perfect for food containers and cutting boards.
And don't overlook ash

work. It turns exceptionally welL

We've used both good-quality plywood and particleboard as a substrate for laminate. Regardless of
which material you use, though, fill
surface voids before applying the
laminate. Also true up the edges
and fill voids with wood putty.
The photo, above, shows the
setup we use to guarantee a smooth
edge. This technique comes in
handy if you plan to band the edges
of a panel with wood.
When putting an edge banding
on a shelf or cQuntertop (see the
photo, below), glue and nail the
wood to the substrate, making sure
the top edge of the banding is
slightly higher than the substrate.
Go back later and either plane or
scrape the surfaces flush .. Don't use
a belt sander; it may gouge the surface or round over an edge.

WRAPPING A CYLINDER
Start by cutting the laminate to the
length and width required. Be sure
to allow extra for trimming. Apply
contact cement to both mating surfaces, wait until the cement is dry
to the touch, and apply the
laminate to the substrate, except for
the last 8 to 10, Slip a piece of
waxed paper beneath the laminate,
then carefully mark both edges of
the laminate as shown.
Carefully align one edge of a
straightedge with the marks you
just made, and clamp the straightedge in place as shown. Run your
router along the edge.

nNlSH-SANDING WOODEN
EDGE BANDING
When you choose the option of
dressing up the edge of a shelf or
counter with a wood banding. getting the wood perfectly flush with
the top of the laminate is tricky.
When we apply the banding, we
try to make sure the wood projects
a bit above the laminate. Then we
mask off the laminate and use a
sanding block to bring the two surfaces flush. When we begin to see
scuff marks on the masking tape.
we call it quits.

THREE COMMON
COUNTERTOP PROBLEMS
Countertop installations give most
people fits, mainly because the
walls cQuntertops m up against are
irregular. But scribing to fit allows
you to compensate for those imper
fections. In the instance shown at
left, we used a thin piece of scrap
material and a pencil to scribe the
irregularities of both walls onto the
laminate.
Most laminatetrimming route",
':=:;;::;;::;:::====~=-~ can't trim laminate right up to the
"
wall. To trim the remainder of the
excess material, we guide our scor
ing tool along a straightedge several
times until we work our way
through the material. The we put
the finishing touches on with a file.
Here's a tip for those situations
when you install a sink in a counterl:op. We mark the cutoff lines,
then bore a I!I ~ hole in each corner
of the cutout. These holes do two

at each inside comer, which helps

, to prevent stress cracking. And
they also prevent you from accidentally scoring surrounding laminate.
We score along each of the cutoff
lines, then use a jigsaw with a
metakuHing blade to cut out the
top. (This blade reduces chipout.>

two passes to achieve the

(As shown in the photo, we
marked the length of the mortise

marked the location of the router
bit on the front fence. The marks
on the fence indicate the exact posi
tion of the "\ w bit. This enabled us
to rout the mortise to exact size,
despite the fact that this is a "blind

a long back fence and stops.) Photo

the mortises dean.

10 With a band saw, cut the previously marked back leg to shape,
cutting just slightly outside the line
drawn. Now, sand the leg to the
marked line. Using this leg as a
template, mark the shape of the
other back leg. Then cut and sand
it to shape. (Accurately shaping the
first leg ensures a good template for
tracing the other legs.)

READERS,
IT'S YOUR
TURNI!!!!!!!II
Here we show off more examples of your handiwork, from the
purely decoralive to the decoratively functional: a minutely
detailed clock, a painstakingly
reproduced Victorian table, a
whimsical child's door, and an
intricately carved Polish eagle
emblem. Once again,. your
projects demonstrate the many
turns that woodworking takes.

in the rotating star tracks the hours.
Think of the 12pointed slar as a
large, glued-up sandwich of various
woods. Jim first slices the wood at
45 0 on a table saw with a fine
tooth blade. Then he reslices the
pieces at 60~ Finally, he reassembles the 1 "-long, pointed pieces.
Making the star required a challenging 48 separate cuts. but as a
former model maker for the Atomic
Energy Commission, Jim had the
experience. He's learned a few
things, too. When working with
small pieces, Jim uses the eraser end
of a pencil to guide the tiny wood
shapes through the table saw.
Jim mounted the dome on the
minute-hand spindle of a batterypowered clock movement and used
the hour-hand spindle to rotate the

CAN ADD TO
YOUR WORKSHOP
Upstroke

Compressor options
If you added another cylinder with a
piston to the compressor pump just
described, you would have a twincylinder compressor. It pumps and
compresses air twice as fast as one with
a single cylinder, but can run on the
same size motor. Of course, it also
costs more.
Two-stage compressors add another
pumping chamber to the process already described. These units take in air
and compress it in one pumping cycle,
or stage, then further compress it in a
second stage to a higher pressure. For
practical purposes, a two-stage compressor delivers air at a higher pressure
than a single-stage unit, the air supply
lasts longer. and the motor won't run
as often. Most commercial and indus
trial compressors are two-stage units.
Direct-drive or "oil-less" compressors
operate similarly to a single-stage
model, but the motor directly drives
the pump without benefit of flywheel
and pulley. Because of this arrangement, they have less power and
capacity.
51
HOW 10 CHOOSE AN
AIR COMPRESSOR
Shop for capacity
Home centers, large hardware stores,
major retail department stores, and
mail-order woodworking tool suppliers
all sell air compressors. So do local
suppliers to the building and construction industry. You can find businesses
specializing in their sales and service in
the Yellow Pages under "compressors~'
Wherever you decide to buy, shop
for capacity. Know what air tools you
want to use and their compressed.air
requirements, then match your needs
to a compressor with that capability.
Delivery capacity simply means the
amount of compressed air the unit will
provide, the pressure at which the air
gets delivered, and how long that air
supply will last during use.
Understand air delivery
requirements for different uses
'1n choosing an air compressor:' advises
Nick Antonecchia of Campbell Hausfeld, a manufacturer of air compressors
for home use, "have in mind what you
want to do with it. Each tool requires
a certain air delivery rate stated in cubic
feet of air per minute (c.f.m.) at pressures ranging from 40 to 90 pounds
per square inch (p.s.i.). wok for an air
compressor that fits your tools' needs,
in both c.f.m. and p.s.i:'
If, for instance, you plan only on
doing some spraying and pneumatic
fastening, you can get by with a much
smaller compressor than if you want to
do much sanding, since sanders require
a greater amount of air. With too small
a compressor, you'll always be playing
"catch-up"-waiting for it to build up
enough air for you to continue
working.

5 STRATEGIES TO MAKE
Ready to set up a shop of your
own-if you could find the
space? Or maybe you have a
small shop that seems to be getting smaller as your woodworking expands. Whatever situation you find yourself in, here's
help. We mapped out three
typical smaU-space shops, then
came up with surefire strategies
to beat the space squeeze.

The drill press, considered essential in many shops. easily fits into a
corner. If you have a floor modeL
fit it with a plywood table and use
an accessory drum sander for maximum versatility.
Lathes can do double duty, too.
Attach a table to the bed. mount a
sanding disk to the head stock, and
you'll have a tWQinone tool. You
can even call on the lathe stand for
needed support when cutting long
stock on the miterbox, as in our
basement shop plan on the following page, by slipping in a "stool"

~ IN STAGES
In small shops you can't afford clutter. Organize your work into
stages, or steps, and cleanup after
each session so there's enough room
to get each step completed. Here's
how its done:
Step 1. Rip and cut off stock into
manageable parts, so you won't
have to handle large pieces in the
middle of the project.
Step 2. Complete cuts, joinery, and
assembly necessary for all
sl.lb-assemblies.

bill on both counts. Build one or

amazing multi-machine. The
multimachine's variable
speeds and arbor shaft adapt
to a host of workshop tasks.
Add the sanding table,
chuck, sharpening stones,
and guards described here,
and you've created your own
mini-shop in one versatile
homemade tool.
P.S. If you missed the article
in our February issue, write
us at 1716 Locust St.,

WHAT WOODWORKING
TEACHES A CHILD
66
WHEN TO START
YOUNGSTERS IN THE SHOP
mainly because they have so many outside interests. Still, a woodworking interest fostered earlier probably will
continue. Paul McClure's childrenson Sean, 13, daughters Angie, 14, and
Tess, 17-regularly tum out projects
which include elaborate chessboards
and marquetry from exotic woods.
DECIDING WHICH TOOLS
KIDS CAN USE
The tools kids can use depends on the
individual child's maturity level. Preschoolers may not need tools at allwatersoluble glue, wood scraps, and
sandpaper will be fine. Starting about
age 7, they can usually manage some
hand tools, such as hammers, pliers,
hand planes. and a small twist drill.
jim Woodruff hesitates 10 let youngsters this age work with sharp tools; he
prefers to make necessary cuts himself.
At age 10 or 11 he introduces them to
the portable jigsaw, which he feels is
aboul the safest.
Graduating kids to power tools requires some individualized judgment.
Paul McClure looks at the child's
s~rength, height, and maturity. His son
used the lathe at 8 years, but couldn't
use a router until he was age 13. joe
Veracka has found that kids from 12
to 15 might be old enough for the

MAIL-ORDER SOURCE
FOR GRAINGER PARTS
Several of your recent projects have ins:luded W.W.
Grainger parts. Grainger is one of America's larger
wholesale houses and does not sell retaiL so readers
may face a challenge in finding sources for these
parts. WOOD readers who want to buy Grainger
parts may do so from me, at wholesale prices
(Grainger's "net cash" price). Their purchases will be
shipped from their local Grainger warehouse.
Readers should send me a stamped, selfaddressed,
no. 10 envelope and specify the month, issue number,
and page of the project they want to order the parts
for. All queries should be addressed to: SBISCO,
Dept. BHW, P.O. Box 479W, Hollister, CA 95024.
Parts delivery normally is within 14 days of the date
the order was mailed.

GREAT ACCESSORIES
Drill-chuck attachment
Mounting a drill chuck lets you
perform several more tasks on the
multi-machine. (See the Buying
Guide at right for a few items we
used.) Be sure to wear safety goggles when using attachments!
BUYING GUIDE
.Drlll chuck. Hardened steel, nickelchrome alloy jaws. Holds bits with 5/64 "to lh"-cliam. shanks. Fits 1,4-20 threaded
shaft. Sears stock no. 9GT2980, $11.

Buy a Mantis!
Big tillers weigh almosl300 Ibs.
Mantis weighs just 20 lbs. (women and
older gardeners love it)1
Simply turning a3<X).lb. tiller in a
backyard garden is a challenge.
Mantis starts with a flick of the wrist ...
turns on a dime ... and weeds
between narrow rows and along
fence lines.
The Mantis takes the work oul of
growing flowers and vegetables ...
so you can have more time to enjoy
the results!
Most big lillers were designed to just
till, Mantis was designed from the
beginning for a variety of useful attachments. Tiller. Weeder. Furrower.
Edger. Lawn Aerator. Lawn DeThatcher. Hedge Trimmer.
Besl of all, Mantis costs a fraction
of what you'll pay for a big tiller.

That's right. If you've been considering purchasing a scroll saw, you may have
thOUght you couldn't afford a HEGNER , Many of our customers used to think so,
too.
But they learned, some ofthem the hard way, that Itcosts more to use the wrong
tool than to buy one that will do thejob right and keep doing It for years and years.
In the long run, the best usually costs the least!
That's why more people switch from other makes to HEGNER than to anyother:
HEGNER Is proven to be the best!

GALLERY-QUAUTY
PLANT PEDESTALS
All too often, greenery and other special display
items go unnoticed for want of a place to show them
off. You can change all that with these impressive,
easy-to-build pedestals.
While they're really nothing more than basic boxes built
with the simplest of all joinery techniques-butt jointsthese pastelcolored pedestals will earn their keep in many
a contemporary decor. We used %" particleboard to frame
up the cubes. all of which measure 8" square and range in
height from 8" up to 36" (%" plywood would also work
fine). Then, we covered the sideS, front and back, and fi
nally the top of each with SoHeareG'. a new solidcolor sur
facing material from Wilsonart. (Several other companies
have this same product under other trade names.) The chief
advantage of using a product with color all the way through
is that with it you can minimize the visual impact of the
seam lines.
A word to the wise when working with these new solid
color materials: Handle them with extreme care. as they
are much more brittle than plastic laminate. And be sure
you work them with carbide-tipped cutters when cutting
on your table saw and trimming with your router.

WOODWORKING VIDEOS
The Next. Best Thing to Being There?
Superman, Darth Vader, and
old movie classics have a new
foe competing for home video
stardom-woodworking instruction. Here's a report from
WOOD MagaZine's How-To
Editor Marlen Kemmet, who
previewed a score of videos for
us in recent weeks.
The video boom has arrived on the
home woodworking scene in a big
way. Two years ago, you would
have been lucky to find one eve
ning's worth of instructional woodworking video material. Today,
though, Y9U could take a week off
work, end up blurryeyed, and still
have a few videos leH 1:0 watch.
For years, the home woodworker
has relied heavily on books and
magazines for help with techniques.
But with the advenl: of videotapes,
hobbyists can now add an important new medium to their collection
of reference materials.
Expert woodworkers are sharing
their secrets for all to see in an
expanding variety of quality video
releases. Techniques range from
carving to sharpening and deck
building to bowl-turning in videos
that usually last % to 2 hours.
Videos aren't cheap. Almost all
fall into the $40 to $70 range. Fortunately for the cost-conscious
woodworker, a few sources have
adopted a mail-order rental policy.
You don't have your own video
cassette recorder (VCR)? No
problem! Video shops that rent
both movie videos and VCRs have
sprung up on many a street corner.
Hooking up one of them to your
television set won't take long,
either. Usually, you simply fasten a
wire or two to the back of the set.
Beware, though: Watching a
video can be like going to a new
movie you haven't heard much

If you've ever tried to learn It from a book - or follow
a manufacturer's directions - you'll agree Donn's
demonstrations are worth 8 thousand hours of reading,
studying plans, and learning by trial and errorl

ROY UNDERHILL:
MASTER CRAFISMAN OF
THE OLD HAND WAYS
He's the author of WOOD Magazine's "Old Hand Ways" column,
several books, and star of the Public
Broadcasting System's national television series, The Woodwright's
Shop. At age 35, Roy Underhill
may already have spent more time
working wood with traditional hand
methods than many a woodwrigM
did back in the 17005.
A hands-on historian of technology, Roy daily displays his multitude of skills as Master Housewright at Colonial Williamsburg in
Virginia. An admiring public can
tinually marvels at how things were
done centuries ago.
Roy probably came by his skills
naturally. In 1597, his ancestor, a
joiner named William Underhill,
sold William Shakespeare a house at
Stratford on Avon, England.
Another forebear, a wheelwright,
was one of the first settlers on the
Virginia Colony's York River in
1690.
Roy inherited an inclination
toward the old hand ways, but he
