My Latest, a contest entry

shipwright · Post by **shipwright** » Tue Jan 31, 2012 12:10 am

This is my latest project, built with my 510 and the shop made chevalet, sander and press that the 510 also produced. It's a Jack (Jock) in the box and I've entered it in the lumberjocks winter challenge which is themed "the inner child".

Here's a video of the jock in action.

The LJ's project post is here.

Hope it makes you smile.

Paul if that doesn't win the contest is rigged!

You should really think about making educational videos. I'm sure many including myself would gladly pay. Most of the woodworking classes and videos today center around dovetails and hand planes. You have a very unique talent!

Not too shabby for a boat builder!;)

Especially one who is 'horsing around'.

Words are totally inadequate!

I second the notion that you need to be doing some educational stuff. Not that I could ever actually do this quality of work, but I would like to know more about how you do it. Thanks for sharing .

Thanks for the kind words. As far as teaching anything goes..... a lot of work and I'm rubbish at it. I do however, take lots of pictures so maybe these will help explain how it was built.

Thanks again

I learned to limbo a long time ago. But now the bar is so high I can walk under!
Just wonderful, Paul.
