Commissioned Shoe rack

Post by moggymatt »

I got asked to make a couple of the circular shoe racks that have popped upon the internet. I attempted to use dowels to attach the shelves to the supports but that didn't work to well on the 1st one. the 2nd one I changed up and the Shopsmith came in real handy as a clamp for the router and a jig.
its a fun project. Learned a lot about alignment.

An excellent way to do the dadoes and a very ingenious way to do the clamping.

Now that I got paid for this, and made a profit, does that make me a professional woodworker?

Very nice job. Oh and there is no way to have too many clamps :)

I guess I was a bit obscure. Sorry.
The OP wasn't even considering thinking outside of the box. His clamping solution was way beyond that. Hence "What box?"
My attempt at a compliment of his remarkable clamping solution.
