walkout basement, the entire space is going to be my bowl shop, with room at the french doors to stash firewood, bowl blanks, and one 4’ desk size section with pegboard for fishing. i have 19’ of wall hanger cabinets salvaged and 30’ of formica counter in 4’ sections. I plan on having a dust collector, planer, jointer, conpact table saw( can usually be stowed) a larger sized band saw, one short bed bowl lathe and one 48” lathe. i’d like chisel racks and grinders behind me as i turn on the lathe, and a shower curtain setup. my main concerns are getting shavings out the door and layout. The slab is about to be poured, i can’t move footings or toilet but can move utilities or possibly move stairs.
help?!
Does anyone have some AI or feel like drawing?

It is a peg board made from a wooden ply for my room

So I make these little terrariums that you can wear and also magnets. But I felt my current display was lacklustre. So in true beginner fashion I decided to make this forrest come to being?

I got this wood you can soak thats used to make fake trees. I really only need the tree trunks to be sturdy enough to hold my necklaces. Yes I don't know how how to make screw driver holes but I will figure it out!

I figured i would soak and roll the wood as they insturcted. But I'm not super sure what to use to support the insides. I want to keep them hollow ish so i can stick a light in there and make some tree holes to let light out. I would be down to use fairy lights if thats too advanced.

Most research i did mentioned using pipes or wood strips and then shaping wire and foam around it....but im not sure if this wood is diff.

Im planning to borrow the woodworking workshop at my uni.

Please give me advice....its tough out here.

Hi!

I got this idea for a tv console (hopefully this plan i made makes sense!), but i’m very much a beginner carpenter, I only ever built a simple shelving unit and even that took me two months.

I have a pretty nice set if tools; a jigsaw, handsaw, Dozuki Saw, Chisel, Orbit Sander and two Clamps.
I know it’s enough to make pretty much everything but as a beginner i struggle to make straight cuts with the Jigsaw even with straight guide and overall pretty lackluster skills, so do you have any tips to help me take on this big project?

Also, I want to build the console using only joinery, so what joints would be the strongest to use and realistic for a beginner and is this even realistic project to begin with?

Any other tips would be appreciated ❤️

First time poster here looking for some advice with regards to a Lebanese Cedar tabletop we’ve had cut and made for our new homes dining table.

We had it made by a local woodworker, who delivered it last Saturday and we’ve noticed it’s still has a slight sticky/tackiness to it when touching it or putting items onto it. Is this something that is likely to reduce as the products used to seal it soak in or do we need to do anything extra ourselves?

Someone else recommended we use Howard feed n wax wood polish and conditioner, beeswax and orange oil variant to be rubbed in sparingly and then buffed away. We have this now so can start putting it on, but just wanted to check we weren’t doing something obviously wrong or missing a trick that a more experienced eye might spot.

Any help much appreciated!
