			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Stu&#8217;s an Australian woodworking blogger who writes and video tapes his experiences and lessons learned while working in his shed. He&#8217;s also one of the few cheapskate woodworkers brave enough to <a href="http://stusshed.wordpress.com/2008/08/19/cheapskate-woodworker-quiz/" target="_blank">take the quiz AND post his cheapskate badge</a> ;D.</p>
<p><a href="http://stusshed.wordpress.com/" target="_blank"><img src="http://i142.photobucket.com/albums/r102/garrettfrench/Stu.jpg"/></a></p>
<p>Pop a beer (don&#8217;t set it on his table saw though), relax and enjoy your tour of <a href="http://stusshed.wordpress.com/" target="_blank">Stu&#8217;s Shed</a>!<br />
<span id="more-296"></span><br />
<strong>1) Tell my readers a little about yourself and your woodworking blog&#8230;</strong><br />
I am a non-professional woodworker in the SE of Melbourne, Australia, with my (non-woodworking) wife and young daughter (2 yr old).  On the back of my place I have a typical Aussie shed (well, perhaps not so typical given the range of tools inside!).</p>
<p>The blog &#8211; an insatiable beast that I started because of photography, and not actually for woodworking &#8211; weird huh.  I wanted to learn about podcasting, and particularly video, being influenced by the photo essays of the Magnum Photographers. I didn&#8217;t have a photo essay to test with, but I did have a few videos that I had made documenting different aspects of woodworking that I had done for the Australian Woodworking Forums, so thought I&#8217;d test one of them, and thus the site began.  I never got back to properly setting up the photo podcast &#8211; the woodworking one took off with such a roar, that I&#8217;ve not actually had time to think about the other!</p>
<p>The site is an extension of my woodworking &#8211; documenting what I do, what I am learning, and what I want to pass on.  While the program was still running, I used to demonstrate Triton woodworking equipment on the occasional Saturday in various hardware stores (for a bit of fun and pocket money), and I run a number of woodworking short courses at a Tafe (Institute of Technology). I used to demonstrate (and was president for a while) of a Melbourne woodworking club. I&#8217;m currently looking at offering occasional demonstrations at a Men&#8217;s Shed that is setting up locally.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s all fun.  If it wasn&#8217;t, I&#8217;d do something else!</p>
<p><strong>2) What are your top 3 most popular posts so far?</strong><br />
Hard to say &#8211; there have been some really significant articles that don&#8217;t get high hits, but are some that I&#8217;m really pleased with how they read, and there are others that are just a throw-away comment that have massive hits.  The really heavily trafficked pages are Stu&#8217;s Shed TV, and the Review section:</p>
<p><a href="http://stusshed.wordpress.com/stus-shed-tv/" target="_blank">Stu&#8217;s Shed TV</a><br />
<a href="http://stusshed.wordpress.com/reviews/" target="_blank">Stu&#8217;s Shed Reviews</a></p>
<p>Most popular posts (currently):<br />
<a href="http://stusshed.wordpress.com/2008/01/18/workshop-layout-planning/" target="_blank">Workshop Layout Planning</a><br />
<a href="http://stusshed.wordpress.com/2008/12/20/the-amateur-and-the-artisan/" target="_blank">The Amateur and the Artisan</a><br />
<a href="http://stusshed.wordpress.com/2008/11/29/3d-drawing-boards/" target="_blank">3D Drawing Boards</a></p>
<p><strong>3) How has the internet changed the way you work with wood?</strong><br />
Yes, and no.  I learn a lot from books (perhaps more-so), but I am influenced to try out more things because of what I see online.  The global village of the internet means I am exposed to, and influenced by so many more woodworkers than I would ever have discovered otherwise.  My site encourages me to try new things too &#8211; pushing the boundaries of my knowledge and skills.</p>
<p><strong>4) Do you have a favorite woodworking forum? What is it and why?</strong><br />
The Australian Woodworking Forums &#8211; they are local (although the community is global), but still with a definite Aussie feel &#8211; laid back, casual, skilled. (http://www.woodworkforums.ubeaut.com.au/)</p>
<p>I was invited, and have been a moderator on those forums for about 6 years now, and have over 5000 posts, although the blog is taking so much time, I am a very occasional visitor these days.</p>
<p><strong>5) Who are some good, under-rated woodworking bloggers that we don&#8217;t hear much about?</strong><br />
Bit embarrassed to say, but I don&#8217;t have time to keep up with many other blogs, partly for time, partly because I don&#8217;t want to take ideas from elsewhere and simply rehash them as my own.  Although that is exactly what happened with a recent post by <a href="http://nwspdx.wordpress.com/" target="_blank">Gary Rogowski</a>, but it really resonated with me so I chose to do so anyway. The journey is very much my own.</p>
<p><strong>6) What are your upcoming shop upgrades?</strong><br />
Just finished upgrading the dust system, so some refinements will still be required, and more power (electrical) is becoming quite desperate. Better storage is probably the next major upgrade, and some more benches for the benchtop power tools (sanders, sharpeners etc) I have a vent to add to the roof (try to get some of the heat out)</p>
<p>I don&#8217;t think the shed is ever finished &#8211; there are always more refinements needed!</p>
<p><strong>7) What tools do you wish you&#8217;d found sooner?</strong><br />
Not so much found sooner, but wish I could have afforded sooner!  My new tablesaw, the cast iron router table I am currently building, and hand tools &#8211; the woodworking journey is so much more important than the finished products.</p>
<p><strong>8) What power tool is the most overrated and/or over hyped?</strong><br />
Not having owned, or even used one to be able to say if it is overrated/hyped, but the Festool Dominio has a fanatical following.  I&#8217;d love one :) Think the one thing that definitely fits here is lasers. Lasers added to everything!  In some cases they are a god-send, and I&#8217;m not referring to those applications. However, when you start adding lasers to bandsaws, jigsaws, scrollsaws then you are just being stupid, and it is everything about marketing, and nothing about good practice.</p>
<p>Oh, and any tool that looks like it should be wielded by a Cylon in Battlestar Galactica. Not meaning to pick on any particular brand, but guys &#8211; it is a TOOL, not a fashion accessory.</p>
<p><strong>9) If you could only have 5 tools for all your woodworking for one year what would they be?</strong></p>
<p>dovetail saw<br />
HNT Gordon smoothing plane<br />
good set of chisels<br />
Colen Clenton Square<br />
Chris Vesper Marking Knife</p>
<p>Hope that would be enough to really get to the roots of woodworking again. (And if I could add one more, the Triton Superjaws so I could clamp the pieces as I work!)</p>
<p><strong>10) Which woodworker has had the most influence on your woodworking?</strong><br />
Probably my Father and Uncle &#8211; Dad who made stuff as we needed it, and my Uncle who made some amazing furniture, and my brother and I a marionette puppet each when I was 9.</p>
<p>Of woodworkers &#8216;out there&#8217;, I&#8217;d say that watching and reading DVDs and books by <a href="http://www.highlandwoodworking.com/woodnews/january_2006/duginske.html" target="_blank">Mark Duginske</a> certainly influenced how I thought of woodworkers, and the ability to take raw stock through to a finished product, rather than relying on commercially produced boards etc.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>My wife and I dropped by the <a href="http://www.kentuckyarts.org/" target="_blank">Kentucky Museum of Art and Craft</a> during our recent Thanksgiving visit. I&#8217;m lucky she brought her camera &#8211; otherwise I would have not been able to share these exquisitely crafted wooden clocks by Lexington, KY woodworker <a href="http://www.kyguild.org/Artists/Chambers/chambers.html" target="_blank">Keith Chambers of Woodwerks</a>.</p>
<p><img src="http://i142.photobucket.com/albums/r102/garrettfrench/clocktease.jpg"/><br />
<span id="more-291"></span></p>
<p>What really stands out about his clocks is the level of custom work and sheer detail that goes into each one. Here are some jaw dropping facts from the card on the wall:</p>
<blockquote><p>
each clock has a custom-made 24 volt AC motor<br />
each tooth requires three different custom-made router bits to accomplish the final shape<br />
the gears are made by laminating three or four one-eighth thick solid wood blanks using a two-part structural epoxy.<br />
the dials are made using exotic woods and have 36 parts<br />
No dyes or stains are used to enhance the woods; all colors are natural</p></blockquote>
<p>Here are some close ups &#8211; make sure your mouth&#8217;s closed or you may drool on your keyboard ;)</p>
<p><img src="http://i142.photobucket.com/albums/r102/garrettfrench/clockgearsside.jpg"/><br />
(yup, they&#8217;re laminated)</p>
<p><img src="http://i142.photobucket.com/albums/r102/garrettfrench/clockgearsfront.jpg"/><br />
(I don&#8217;t think I&#8217;ve ever seen &#8220;beautiful&#8221; gears before&#8230;)</p>
<p><img src="http://i142.photobucket.com/albums/r102/garrettfrench/woodenclockfullfront.jpg"/><br />
(there it is, up on a pedestal. I somehow didn&#8217;t get the price&#8230;)</p>
<p>It&#8217;s not hard to tell that Chambers is an engineer by trade. The Southsider magazine interviewed Chambers early this year. Here&#8217;s how he describes making the gears:</p>
<p>&#8220;When I start making gears, that&#8217;s all I&#8217;m doing. I make three different outlines of the gears, I draw the gears, then I take the profile and make another drawing. Then I send off the info to Montana and they actually make the fitted bits for me,&#8221; explained Chambers. &#8220;It&#8217;s fine tuning using the different-sized bits to first cut away excess wood, then angle it with another bit, then go back for fine tuning, down every single groove––to give it the profile of real metal gears. A 64-tooth gear has over 190 cuts in it. It brings tears to your eye when you&#8217;re done and you realize one of the teeth is chipped.&#8221;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Rings are always mentioned when it comes to power tool safety &#8211; in that list of things NOT to wear in the shop. Along with long hair, dangling necklaces and long sleeves, rings can get caught in the machinery and cause you serious physical harm.</p>
<p>That said, the LOYL (love of your life) may cause you serious physical harm if you go around without wearing your wedding ring.</p>
<p>76 of the finest woodworkers at FamilyWoodworking.org answered a poll regarding wearing a wedding ring in the shop&#8230; here are the results followed by some choice quotes from the 42 responses that this thread got.</p>
<blockquote><p>
25: I wear one and always will.<br />
22: No way, a gesture of love isn&#8217;t worth losing a finger.<br />
13: I take mine off, but only in the shop.<br />
11: I wear one but deep down I know I shouldn&#8217;t because of safety.<br />
7: I&#8217;ve had mishaps with my wedding band.</p></blockquote>
<p>(there were a couple others that had less than 2 responses &#8211; check out the thread to see them: <a href="http://familywoodworking.org/forums/showthread.php?t=8371" target="_blank">Do you wear wedding bands in the shop</a>)</p>
<p><strong>Great Quotes from &#8220;Do you wear wedding bands in the shop?&#8221;</strong></p>
<blockquote><p>1) &#8220;I&#8217;ve not worn my wedding band for over 42 years! The &#8220;Medics&#8221; had to fight like heck to get it off when my ring finger swelled up after it was hit with a maul by a Private! After that I never put it back on.&#8221;</p>
<p>2) &#8220;I wear mine. Death before dishonor!&#8221;</p>
<p>3) &#8220;The army safety poster they always posted showed the sheath of skin from a finger with a ring on it and the hand was not attached&#8230;&#8221;</p>
<p>4) &#8220;My dad is missing the ring finger on his right hand as the result of an incident with a truck, a loading dock, and a high school class ring. Because of this, he can only grab M&#038;Ms out of a bowl with his left hand. The right hand leaks.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>I loved reading through the thread &#8211; great stories and great humor. FamilyWoodworking is a great woodworking forum! Check out the thread: <a href="http://familywoodworking.org/forums/showthread.php?t=8371" target="_blank">Do you wear wedding bands in the shop</a>?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>We&#8217;ve been hard at work on our ToolCrib.com Catalog, aiming to ship it at the end of the summer of &#8216;07. Unfortunately we hit some technical snags that got us rethinking the whole catalog concept. </p>
<p><strong>In Leu Of A Catalog, We Have Added Some Great Features And Services</strong><br />
We decided it was more important to put our time and resources into adding more vendors to our online store to insure we have the lowest prices for you. You can now buy from Home Depot, Tool King, Northern Tool, Rockler, and Amazon.com, so you are sure to get the lowest prices and best selection at one site, ToolCrib.com.</p>
<p>We also launched a Power Tool Personal Shopping Service for contractors with large orders or shopping lists, and organizations that buy with POs. ToolCrib.com will find you the lowest prices on power tools by cross checking with multiple vendors and using our volume buying clout. </p>
<p><strong>If You Really Want a Catalog&#8230; </strong><br />
Send an email to GFrench@ToolCrib.com to tell us why you miss the catalog so much, and we will try to fine tune the catalog concept to your needs. In the mean time we highly recommend a subscription to our twice a month email newsletter, which offers LOW prices on tools plus buying guides, tool comparisons and shop tips to keep you safe and productive. </p>
<p><strong>We also recommend catalogs from both of these fine retailers:</strong></p>
<p><a href="http://www.northerntool.com/freecatalog/index.htm" target="_blank">Northern Tool and Equipment Catalog</a></p>
<p>Rockler Catalog:</p>
