I needed a horizontal drill for making the Vintage sleighs The brass escutcheon pins that were used to hold the pieces together needed to be drilled into the middle of 1/4” wood and to not blow out the side. The pins are about 10 thousands bigger than a 1/16” drill bit. So I drill the hole and then put in the pin.
This type jig is used when making round Shaker Boxes to drill the holes very close to the edge and to allow the toothpick dowel to be put in.
It’s 1/2” Baltic birch with a 1 7/8” hole that fits the collar on the drill body. I use stacks of wood and shims to get the drill bit to the correct height that I need to do the drilling. You then push the wood in to the required depth.
The block to hold the drill is glued and screwed. The block that holds it in the vise is also glued and screwed.

A little something for my mother for Christmas. Cherry with shellac and wax.

A Christmas present for a family friend. About 14” high. Quartersawn white oak, with Paduak highlights. Shellac and wax finish. My own design, including the clock face.
How I made the clock face: I drew it up in Photoshop, at 300dpi. I printed it out on my nice inkjet printer using HP’s Archival quality thick-stock paper. I was pleased with the result.

While making the Vintage Sleighs I needed a way to hold small pieces and to cut them safely.
So I made this jig.
Put a runner for the slot on the bottom.
Put the fence on at 90 deg. and use a block of wood clamped at the back to control the depth of cut.
In use cutting some frame blocks for the sleigh. The slots would be a 14 deg dado. I used the bandsaw and chisel.
It’s made with Baltic birch ply. 1/2” thick.

I made these sleighs for a door prize for the holiday dinner tonight. I got done with 4 hours to spare.
The Blog on it’s construction and history is here.
My wife made the floral decorations for the sleighs.
The assembled sleighs.
I’ve got pieces for about 12 of them so I’ll be busy for a while.

I’m in the process of finishing this up, I’ve started it last night.
I had a Small problem with a Nick on it, I think if I hang it on the wall it will become unnoticable.
