art above the headboard finished!

Yesterday I finished the art above the headboard!

Click to read more about the tufted headboard with wings and nailhead trim, dresser/nightstand, lamps, pillows!


I drew a design based off of the bed skirt or back of pillows fabric - traced with puffy paint (remember it is very hard to get the puffy paint to be perfect - if you try it this way, embrace the imperfections!)

After it dried I painted it with SW Anew Gray with a little white mixed in

Once it dried I didnt think that it had enough contrast - and looked a little flat in the space ...


so I retraced the lines with white puffy paint and perfect - just enough pop!


The two larger frames on the right are painted the same as the canvases (little frame is from Ikea)

I printed the quote on fabric - check out this post to see how I did it - I drew the Eames chair outline and Annabelles silhouette in illustrator

 

 

and on the other side - a wedding photo, outline of wishbone chair, and a quote printed on fabric 







I love the extra contrast that the white lines gave the canvases! and how the texture ties in with the bed skirt while balancing out the stenciled wall

I have a lot of exciting projects in the works ... now I just have to decide what to start first!

The Greenwich Frame Part II Fabrication Begins


Construction began by mocking up the frame with some peg board scraps I had. Once I was satisfied with the dimensions, I milled the walnut. Luckily, I had success with a new jointing technique and didn’t turn any of my walnut into wedges while I was milling the the frame.
A holy version of my frame.
After quickly cutting the four, rectangular frame pieces to size, I used my new Woodpecker spacer blocks to relatively dimension the table saw fence and blade location. I then quickly cut the rabbets in the rails using two passes on a standard table saw combination blade. For the stopped rabbets on the stiles, I first marked the rail locations so that I would know where to stop. I then milled the stile rabbets using a router and a bearing guided rabbeting bit.
I made the rabbets in the stiles a little extra long. By going long, I didnt have  to square them off.
Once the rabbets were completed, I broke out the trusted Domino and milled my joinery. I again used my Woodpecker spacer blocks and referenced all the Dominos using the integral alignment pins and relative dimensioning.
Everything is made better with relative dimensioning.
Once dominoed, it was time to mill the cloud lift in the upper rail. To do this I made a very simple jig that held the workpiece and Marc’s templete and allowed me to bring the piece to a bearing guided flush trim bit in the router table. I didn’t initally clamp the templete tight enough and it drifted, but I was able to simple enlarge the cloud lift sightly, re-clamp and carry on. It was only a slight enlargement and no one but you (dear reader) is the wiser.
My quickie cloud lift fabrication setup.
With the rails and stiles now completely cut and shaped, I broke out my new DeWalt DWP611PK and put an ⅛” roundover on all the exposed frame edges.

When the shaping was finally over, I sanded the parts. This was a simple matter of hitting their faces with 80, 150 & 180 grit paper on a random orbit sander and using corresponding grit sanding sponges on the edges and round overs.

Next up, plugging the frame.

Last of the Pegboard Removed and New Layout Tool Panel Installed


Its been a long time getting here, but the shop is now "pegboard free" - wahoo! Ive talked about this before, how I think pegboard has its place, but how I much prefer real wood.

When I was first setting up the shop it looked like this:


As you can see, with the exception of the brace rack, all the tools panels were pegboard.

Well, one panel at a time, Ive slowly replaced the pegboard. The first up-grade was to the saw panel, then the drilling/boring panel *. Now it was time to tackle the largest and most random of the panels - the one in the center that was a mishmash of tools - some chisels, files and rasps, punches, mallet, knives, snips, squares etc.

I was just going to pull the pegboard from the frame and replace it with tongue and groove 1x12s. I started that process by slicing open the bottom of the frame with a slitting gauge. Then my apprentice, Teague, helped me slide the pegboard out of the frame.


Then, as frequently happens, I changed plans. I decided that what I really needed to make was three panels: one for layout tools, one for frequently used miscellaneous tools, and one for chisels. Anything from the original panel that didnt fit one of these categories would just have to find another home.

The first of the new panels would be for the layout tools. It was made the same way Ive made the other panels, so I wont go into great detail on the process, but here is a brief photo summary.

First, the Stanley #48 was used to create the tongue and groove joints:


The three boards of the panel joined together and with the joint showing the approximate amount of shrinkage I get on my other panels in winter:


Theres nothing wrong with just leaving the panel like this, but I prefer to make the gap less noticeable and a little fancier by beading the edge on one of the boards at each joint.

Using a moulding sample to decide which bead size I wanted to use to make the joint look better as it expands and contracts over the course of the seasons:


Beading with the 1/4" side bead plane that matches the sample:


And the final result, again set to the approximate maximum shrinkage and gap:


A close up shot of the same:


And the panel completed, hung on the French cleat system in the shop, and loaded with layout tools:


Again, there was nothing wrong with the pegboard version, but this one makes me happy when I look at it - which is something we seem to be lacking all too often in todays world.

*Okay, I guess I should read my own blog more often - then I would have remembered that I used the wooden T&G planes and that they worked better...sheesh. Oh, and to answer the question I asked at the end of the boring/drilling post - "No. More like soon as in almost two years!"

Making tops for the window seat

Time to make the tops for the window seat area!  Im dividing the top into three separate lids that will open upward. Since the unit is going to be painted I am making them out of the cabinet grade plywood I used to make the casework. Ill then put a pine bull nose on each lid to finish it off.  Here are the pictures after I finished.





I used a heavy duty soft closing hinge, but in this application, the lids are too heavy for the soft close piston of the hinge to work effectively.
In the picture below, you can see that I did a separate piece above the duct work extension and added a finger hole for easy removal.  Just in case the duct needs to be accessed in the future.  The inside has some very simple and basic support members.

New Yankee Workshop Workbench update cutting the inserts out of the top

I cut the slot out of the benchtop for the dogs and tailstock.  What a giant pain in the rear?  Norm does it in the video in like 30 seconds and it took me nearly an hour.
 

 
I attached the 2 pieces of plywood together with 1" drywall screws and some of them ended up poking through so I had to cut off all the tips with my dremel before running the piece through the tablesaw.
 
 
I marked the two ends of the slot and then cut them on the tablesaw.

I got them close and then finished them with a jigsaw.

I also used the jigsaw to cut the ends.

All cut and ready for the next step.

I marked the corners and then clamped a framing square down to use as a cut guide for my small cordless saw.

I cut it close and then used the jigsaw to finish it.

I made sure that all my cuts were square to the material.

Here it is all cut out.
