Woodworker's Journal summer-2009, страница 40
Joe Clay Young didn't just inherit some tools from his Jonesboro, Arkansas ancestors — he got the whole shop. His great-grandfather and great-uncle owned a warehouse, lumberyard, sawmill and furniture production facility from about 1901 to the 1950s, with tools like a 5HP DeWalt saw (above) and a foot-pedal ripsaw (above, right). Clay said, "It's almost like a time capsule," and his wife, Pamela, added, "Nothing's put away. There's dust and tools lying out. It looks like they just got up and left." Keeping tools sharp is important in the shop, and a WJ sharpening station project came at the right time for Jack Frost of Maple Valley, Washington. He used leftover melamine from a closet project and mill-run black walnut to construct the sharpening center — and added #20 biscuits to produce a more secure joint between the floor and the bottom trim. This loyal reader had a special clamp request... My interest in woodworking started with your magazine's first issue. I attempt to make something from each issue as an ongoing learning program and for the enjoyment. Every project requires clamps. I did not start out with a master design for my clamp holder/storage stand. It just ended up this way. My only request: stop putting projects in your issue that require a new type of clamp.
