CABINET BASE WORKBENCH

You'll need to find a fair amount of hardware to build the cabinet base workbench on page 16. Most of the basic items can be found at your local hardware store. But there are some items you'll probably need to order to complete the project.

The 2" x 1%" antique, ball-tip hinges (00E08.05) I used to hang the center doors on the cabinet came from Lee Valley. And Rockier carries the cross dowels (31823) and shelf supports (33902) you'll need. The cherry knobs (88783) and magnetic catches (26559) came from Rockier as well.

You'll need a pair of vises for the workbench. The Veritas tail vise (70G09.01) and face vise (70G08.02) were both ordered from Lee Valley. The vises don't come with handles. So you'll need to make them or order them from Lee Valley (05G12.03). The Woodsmith Store also has these handles and vises.

To round out your workbench, you'll need to get some bench dogs. I used bench dogs (114141) that came from Highland Hardware. But you'll find that Lee Valley also carries bench dogs (05G02.01) that work well. It's a good idea to have the bench dogs in hand before you start work on the holes. That way, you can be sure they fit properly.

, AIR HOSE REELS

A good hose reel is a great help in controlling and storing your air compressor hose. You'll find many types and styles of hose reels available from a number of manufacturers. I picked up the two Amflo reels featured in the article on page 46 at a local Home Depot.

The black, portable reel came from Rapid Reel. You can get dealer information by contacting them. The EZ-Coil system with a brake was ordered from Coxreels. You'll find ordering information for this reel in the right margin as well.

SLOT CUTTERS

To cut the slots for the spline joinery in the article on page 8,1 used a Vt" slot cutter (53210) from Amana Tools. They also make a Quadraset Assembly (53600) that includes four cutters, a bearing, shims, and an extra-long arbor. This set allows you to cut slots ranging from '/s" to 23/32" wide. You'll find both types available from the Woodsmith Store.

SPOKESHAVE

The items needed for the spokeshave on page 28 are available in most hardware stores. But you'll need to order a blade and brass bar stock.

I was able to order a 12"-long piece of 5/k," x V2" brass bar stock

(bof.312x.5) from Metal Express. Brass bar stock (8954K188) is also available from McMaster-Carr but the minimum length is three feet.

The low-angle spokeshave blade (SP062) I used came from Hock Tools. It comes complete with threaded posts and brass knurled knobs. You'll want to be sure to order the larger, 4?i6"-long blade.

DRILL PRESS CABINET

Most home centers cam' the hardware you'll need to build the drill press accessory cabinet. But you may need to order some catches for the doors. The 7/ifc" magnetic catches (29280) I used came from Rockier.

If you're going to build the lower cabinet, you'll need a way to support the door so you can use it for a worksurface. For this, I ordered lid stays from Lee Valley. You'll need a right-hand (00T07.22) and a left-hand (00T07.12) lid stay.

LEVELERS & TOGGLE CLAMPS

Many of the levelers featured on page 10 and the toggle clamps from page 12 can be found at the Woodsmith Store. Home improvement centers and woodworking stores also carry a variety of toggle clamps and levelers. You'll find the information for some other sources listed in the right margin.
