Butterflies hold the two pieces 1/2" apart. All work on this piece was done with hand tools, except a few cuts with the table saw for the legs. The slab was cupped badly after drying in our Canmore climate, and instead of planing it flat, I ripped it length wise, planed the two pieces individually, then reattached them with the walnut butterflies.

One day, on a whim, I added a hand hoe to an on-line purchase. I've tried all sorts of hand tools in the garden and have been disappointed almost every time. Like my cobra head weeder, most of them are gathering dust. Little did I know how much I would love this tool and how often I would use it. In fast, it's probably my most used garden hand tool.
The Beach Pea is a D.N. Hylan design. www.dhylanboats.com/beachpea_plans.html
She is built glued lapstrake of marine plywood, and, at 13 feet long with a 4' 4" beam, can be very easily trailered even by a light vehicle. She weighs about 140 pounds, and draws 3 inches with the centerboard up and about 1 foot 6 inches with the board down.
Beach Pea was built by the 2011 Contemporary (wood composite) class under the direction of instructor Bruce Blatchley, and is used locally nearly every day by her owner.

My husband adds lots of things he collects to the garage and still tries to navigate it on foot. 3-08-09
It has become increasingly difficult for me to pick up good, solid metal hand planes. They seem to have vanished from the face of the earth.
So I was happy when this one appeared. It is a Type 19 Stanley no 4. Not the hottest plane on the planet but made during times when Stanley was still trying to put some effort into handtools. It is well made with even castings, the rosewood handles have survived without scars and the japanning is still about 90 percent. And although the cutter has been sharpened a few times there's still plenty of meat in it.

Dovetailed tool chests, which boatbuilders would know as "shoulder boxes", are one of the many projects built in the Basic Boatbuilding class. We've built these boxes in every one of our 32 classes over the years since our founding in 1981.
Shoulder boxes were used to make it easier to carry the tools needed for the day's work to the job site. Students customize these boxes in all sorts of different ways.

Strobist info: Shot after sunset. I had a Canon 550EX Speedlite atop a light stand, raised about 7 feet, right of camera. The Speedlite was fired through a Chimera 12x16 mini softbox (wish I'd bought that YEARS ago). I believe the power setting was 1/8th power. The other 550EX Speedlite was under the hood, and aimed at the firewall (24mm zoom setting on the flash). I had a perry sky blue cellophone over that flash, and it was fired at 1/128th power. Both Speedlites were triggered with Pocket Wizards. I wanted her to lean over like she was going to work on the car (yeah, right in that dress), but the radiator was scalding hot. So we settled for more of a static pose. (It was still over 100 degrees when this was taken.)
Canon 5D and Canon 50mm f1.4 USM lens. The RAW image was processed with Canon DPP. Post-processing done in Portrait Professional and Photoshop CS4.
This is a decorative nail head, aka upholstery tack, decorative nail head, concho, decorative tack, brad, button, decorative nail trim, tack trimming, etc. These are regularly seen lining the edge of couches, chairs, lounges, ottomans, tables, etc. Decorative Nail Heads give your furniture that extra something. They just make it seem less plain. Furniture isn't the only place they can be used though. Most of our customers don't use them for furniture at all, in fact. They're artists, or designers, so they decorate their walls, arts and crafts projects, knives, bars, their artwork, mirrors, purses, and much, much more. You can find MANY different ways to use these. Interesting little gizmos in your every day life. See what you can find to do with them, and ADVERTISERS!, if you would like, we'll even advertise for you on our website. Take a look at www.furniturerestorationtoolsandsupplies.com. Right on the front page, we show anyone who visits our website what can be done with the decorative nail heads, and we're always looking for more, interesting ways of using them. Send pictures and your information to: sam@BrandtandWhitney.com, and we'll put them up on our website.
This particular nail head is called the 0. Despite there only being one nail in the picture, it actually comes in five different finishes: Nickel (as shown), brass, black, French Natural, and copper.
I am currently working on the studio floor, using a 19th century wooden handplane, it works just as well as the day it was made.
This is an atomizer, made by Mohawk. It is a very inexpensive and easy to use tool for spray-applying Leather Spray Grain (M870-9400). It has 2 tubes positioned at 90 degree angle. One tube is the mouthpiece while the other is the dip tube. The user blows through the mouthpiece causing liquid to be pulled through the dip tube and atomized into a sprayed mist. It is fast and convenient to use because it doesn't have to be hooked to a compressor or an aerosol power pack. Atomizers are most popular for applying Leather Spray Grain, but some technicians also use it to apply Touch Up Pigment and Top Coat over their repairs.
The Buzzards Bay-14 was designed by L.Francis Herreshoff in 1945 as a follow-on to the Herreshoff 12 1/2 designed by his father, N.G. Herreshoff. www.herreshoff.org/hmm/index.html
These are beautiful, classic wooden boats. We usually build them with a fir or purpleheart stem and keel, mahogany transom (seen in this picture) and western red cedar planking. The boats are usually a two year project for us.

Just some random shots from our visit to the LSU Rural Life Museum, off of Essen Lane in Baton Rouge.
Note: this is a display of hand made moulding planes. This is how carpenters used to make the mouldings that you see in very old houses and antique furniture.

Pictures from this year's first Traditional Timber Framing and Full Scribe Log building course. We were building a Norwegian log cabin taught by Norwegian carpenter Marius Holje. As well students built a massive French style timber frame structure from heavy larch timbers using French and Japanese scribe rule centre line layout system. Log building was build using only axes and chisels. No saws were used to cut the joints.
