Furniture & Cabinetmaking | May 2015
In issue 231 of Furniture & Cabinetmaking we have lots for you to enjoy. In our ‘Projects & Techniques’ section, Chris Tribe is full of praise for Skelton Saws’ handmade dovetail saw; Aaron Moore shows you how to make your very own spirit level; John Bullar looks at making Japanese splicing joints; Charles Mak explains how SawStop has a lot more going for it than what’s under the table; Anne Briggs Bohnett tells us more about the marking gauge; Mark Harrell explains how you can tell if a saw is worth saving; Derek Jones and Steve Morris try out General Finishes’ milk paints; Franciszek de Sage puts a William-and-Mary-style chest back on its feet; Jeff Miller constructs a benchtop and Chris Yates moves on to the design of several general purpose jigs.
In ‘Design & Inspiration’ we find out about the largely self-taught furniture maker Gareth Batowski; John Lloyd looks at router tables in ‘our correspondent’; in ‘Apprentice Notes’, Jim Cooper looks at tackling the all important secondary bevel and we bring you a fantastic lot from Bonhams’ recent Fine English Furniture and Works of Art sale.
As well as all this, we also have ‘Leader’ from the Editor; ‘News & Events’; ’F&CUK’, ‘Editor’s Round-up’ and ‘Workshop Library’, where we have a number of furniture-related reads that we think you’ll enjoy, as well as our website of the month.
All this and more in issue 231 of Furniture & Cabinetmaking!
