Getting on with the Job

Its good to be getting on with the job of starting to do the joinery for a Silky Oak Hay Rake Table.

Progress made today.

Using my Oliver 12 " Helical Head Jointer supplied by Major Woodworking Equipment to dress the centre stretcher of this table.

Using my Jet 15" Thicknesser to dress the centre stretcher for this Silky Oak Hay Rake Table. This 15" Thicknesser was supplied by Major Woodworking Equipment.

Using my Lie-Nielsen #6 Bench Plane to finish dressing the 4 corner stretchers for this Silky Oak Hay Rake Table.

Using my Lie-Nielsen Block Plane to plane 5 mm chamfers onto the bottom of the 4 legs for this Silky Oak Hay Rake Table.

All 4 sets of chamfers now completed. I really enjoy using my Vesper Tools Try Squares to lay these out.

Setting out the mortice for the corner stretcher to go through a table leg. Colen Clenton's Marking Gauge is a joy to use.
