Odds and Sods

I'm working on a lot of different projects right now.

Today was a busy day in the studio.  I prepped and glued up stock for a table top.  I milled stock for table legs and cut tapers on the legs.  I made aprons and cut tenons on the aprons.  I cut leg parts for a wine box table.  I cut the notches in the legs for the table and I made the cleats for the top. I also cut plywood for the bottoms of my bread side tables.  I'm using plexi glass for the tops of the wine box table.  The plexi is a lot cheaper. It is a prototype after all.

Tomorrow I'm going to torch the edges to make them clear. 

I use a home made jig to cut the tapers on the legs.  It's a simple piece of plywood cut to the shpae of the taper and screwed to a plywood base.  A couple of toggle clamps is all you need.  It works well 

I always cut my tenons on the table saw using a set of stack dado blades and a false fence attached to the regular saw fence.  With a single set up I can cut the shoulders and cheeks of the tenons without moving the fence.  It makes very accurate tenons.
