WIA11 in Moving Pictures


As I’m sure you all know, the 2011 Woodworking in America was a great event. The best part, as alchoices, was hanging out with my fellow woodworkers. One of the activities we did together was take the Hand Tool Olympics by storm.I shot a bunch of video of us making idiots of ourselves cutting, planeing, boring and tenoning at the HTO booth. Here’s my simple video collage.It features Ian MacKay, Me, Tom Iovino, Iggy the Shop Monkey, Mike Lehikoinen, Aaron Marshall, Matt Gradwohl & commentary by Emily Bonham Owen mocking TomI’ve sped up the actual cutting, planeing, boring & tenoning. Except for Matt’s. You’ll appreciate why when you see it.
Heres a bonus video of us . . . on a trolley . . . you had to be there . . .

Moving Pictures of Woodworking In America 13

I never seem to leave Woodworking in America having taken enough media back with me. This year, though I took plenty of photos, I didnt take any videos (except for some silly Vines). Luckily, many others did take videos.
+Marc Spagnuolo took many great videos and after what Im sure was much more editing than I would like to do, he put together this great video on what he saw in Covington.
+Matt Vanderlist was paying much more attention in Roy Underhills Timber! class which opened the conference. He has this great video showing how Roy squares a log.
On Saturday in the marketplace I was lucky enough to be interviewed by Lee Valley Tools. Connie from their social media team talked with many bloggers and some actual talented wood workers and tool makers. I believe there will be a few videos coming out in the coming weeks. This first one covers what the interviewees would teach kids first. I cant say mine is the best answer (it isnt) but there clearly are some wood workers with a great grasp on how to bring the young into the craft.
Of the silly Vines I shot, here is my favorite. Ive already shared it and Im sorry if youve already seen it. I just cant help buy laugh every time I watch.

2013 November Shop Tour


With my October Shop Tour coming so late in the month I chose to wait a few weeks so that at least the project in the shop would be new.
Here is November’s tour. You’ll see not much work on the shop has been done, but I do have a project on the bench. While I’m still eager to get more done on the shop, it’s nice to be in there building.

Shop Tour M Scott Morton Part III

In addition to the free formed conversation I had with Morton while touring his shop, I also emailed him a formal questionnaire. Here, my friends are his actual, factual answers about his shop.
Penultimate Woodshop: Did you plan our your shop layout, or did it just evolve in and ad-hoc fashion?Morton: I try to plan, but it’s been ad-hoc as space has opened up, added new tools, etc.PW: Whate is your favorite area of the shop? Least favorite?Morton: Favorite area is around the assembly table, because everything is there, organized and I constantly work there. Least favorite is anywhere near the dust collector and it’s assorted hoses and dust.PW: Shop furniture, build or buy?Morton: Mostly built. I would prefer to buy, but everthing needs to be “just so” to either fit or fit my needs. But for jigs and accessories, I’d rather buy.
PW: Workbench, build or buy? What style? Would you change anything about it?Morton: I have my torsion box assembly table that doubles as a workbench. Need to change quite a bit out it in terms of work holding, but it works really well. However, I’m building a Roubo this winter (or spring or summer - PW) - so that will of course be my main bench and the assembly tale can just be that: assembly. The split-top Roubo will be made from Douglas Fir and will be very out-of-the-box, no real modifications.PW: Do you condition the air? Heat/AC/Dehumidifier?Morton: The shop is in the basement, about 75% buried underground or surrounded by heated (house) space. It maintains a temp at about 70 all year round. I use a dehumidifier in the summer as I get significant rust problems (no water problem, but lots of humidity).PW: Favorite activity in the shop?Morton: Re-organizing ;) or building prototypes.PW: What tool do you own the most of?Morton: Clamps (if they are a tool). Otherwise, funny - I hardley even have TWO of anyting - not even a drill/dirver or router [one each].
Morton’s Shop Technical Details:Size: About 30’ x 30’Attached or Outbuilding: BasementLighting Type: Overhead Flourescent -- added a few more fixtures myself and want to add even more.Heated? A/C?: No heating or AC. Stays about 70 all year round due to some sides being buried and others adjacent to heated spaces.
