This @dfmtoolworks juice groove scraper is a huge help for cleaning up grooves. I’ve had it for a few years and it makes my life so much easier! #workshop #cuttingboards #woodworking #woodworker #maker #woodshop #juicegroove #dowoodworking #woodworkingisfun

Making pins for the breadboard ends I used a dowel plate and some cutoff maple from the project. I could run them through with a drill so they are perfectly straight of turn them on the lathe but this method is fun. With this method the wood grain dictates how it will go through the plate. The maple was pretty straight grain and it went smooth. Dowel plate by @dfmtoolworks Thanks for watching #dowel #dowelplate #handtools

Using the @microjig MatchFit grooves to hold a cutting board to do finger grooves on the end of a cutting board was an easy solution to the question of ā€œHow?ā€ The clamps acted as both clamps to hold the board level with the top of my bench and stops to get the right spacing for the trim router. It’s an easy way to cut the finger grooves safely and cleanly. And if you use a better bit than I did you’ll also get cleaner cuts. But I’ve had this card scraper from @dfmtoolworks forever and love it! #workshop #woodworking #woodworkforall #woodshop #garagewoodshop #maker #microjig #cuttingboard #woodworkingjigs

Yeah, they copied it. Overseas factories saw our design and cranked out knockoffs on Amazon. But here’s what they can’t copy: Our materials. Our precision. Our pride. Made in Chicago, cut from U.S. aluminum, and engraved just for you — because we actually care about you and our community. Still just $19.99 for now. Support the real ones. #madeinusa #notaknockoff #chicagomade #customtools #woodworkinglife #supportsmallshops

We’ve put a lot of time and effort into these hammers with their 4140 steel heads and black-dyed handles. It’s not easy to let this style go, but we’re making space for new products that make more sense for the future. The last few are ready to ship and find their forever home. Top šŸ” link in bio. Sidebar on this product: One of the things I (JT) am working on is learning to separate effort from outcomes. These hammers were a labor of love, but we struggled to sell them consistently. Letting go of a product I care about hasn’t been easy, but recognizing when to move on is part of the process. We’ll keep learning and getting better at this along the way. Thanks for your support- JT and team

Finishing up the last of our 4140 steel hammer heads, paired with black-dyed handles inspired by the colors of the Tower Guard from The Lord of the Rings. Here’s a look at the assembly process – these are ready to ship today #lotr #dfmtoolworks #twistedhammer
