One thing is for sure: you guys love making projects and you LOVE showing them off. I am only too happy to help you do that! As a result, I have projects from over 6 months ago that have yet to be posted. Our backlog is insane. So in an effort to help move things along, we are having a Viewer Project Week. Every day this week I will be posting another awesome project by you guys, my dedicated comrades in wood. And maybe we’ll do this once in a while to make sure the backlog doesn’t keep getting out of control. And if you just can’t get enough of other people’s projects, be sure to check out our Photo Gallery in The Wood Whisperer Forum. Lots of great stuff posted there for your enjoyment. Thanks everyone!

Ever wish you could fast forward 5 years and see how your projects are holding up? That would certainly be useful information as it would let you know what worked, and what didn’t. So in this episode, I pull out a number of old projects and examine them closely for damage, flaws and evidence of wood movement. I’ll also go over the joinery used in each project and what you can expect from them over time. And the grand finale is my chess board (the second project I ever made). Let’s just say that you should never underestimate the power of wood movement. Incidentally, if you answered our viewer survey this past summer, you’ve already seen this episode.

Are you a Humble Woodworker? Just for fun, take this little quiz created by Garrett over at ToolCrib.com

So how do you spend your time between projects? For me, its a great time to tune up my equipment, wax the cast iron tables, touch up the chisels, and do some general cleanup. And nothing is more inspiring than a nice clean workshop at the beginning of a new project. So watch the video and you will see some of the things I like to do between big projects.
