Woodworking Crafts Magazine March 2013 Back Issue

In this month’s Woodworking Plans & Projects Anthony Bailey makes a RouterCentric fish platter, while Rolando Pontalti gives you something to scratch your head over with a geometric wooden puzzle. Bryn Edwards turns a bird feeder just in time for spring, and Richard Parrott makes an oak blanket chest. James Hatter shows you how to make the most of your alcoves and cubby holes, Paul Bignell teaches you how to carve a rose, and Simon Rodway makes a reading stand in Plans for You! In techniques, Walter Hall is back in the Machine Workshop, this time covering portable thicknessers, and The Editor shows us how to choose and maintain our chisels and gouges. In this month’s main feature, Simon Frost meets master engraver Chris Daunt, and in My Working Day he catches up with talented chainsaw carver Alasdair Craig. In Tools of Yesteryear, Mr Bailey brings us the original cordless drill driver… no batteries required!
