Yes, it's Giacomo who built it. This part is coming with the may issue.

That's a good suggestion but I have the constraint to do the exact copy of the original. Anyway I'll report your idea.

Thank you Dave! You're right about the hole, it's for the vise. The little drawer is actually a false one, so it's a piece of plywood laminated with walnut. The other two drawers and the frames of the doors are made of beech. The carcase is made of plywood jointed with biscuits.

I just finished drawing the workbench and these are two photos. I hope you like it.

Thank you everybody! I found the solution in reading Dave's post.

I have to sketch some plywood sheets and I wonder which would be the best solution to texture plywood edges. I'm sure Dave talked about this in a previous post but I can't find it anymore.

Thanks!

Dave, I like the way you display your projects. Beside the fact that they are always very nice, they also have very attractive styles.

Very nice work! I'm also building two beds for my children but they follow the classic style. You had a good idea.

I prefer ver_1 because of the roof, but I think Dave is right about Fido's protection. But, I suppose Alabama is not a snowy place, that could be a major problem for the roof solidity.

I had breakfast at IKEA this morning and on the way out I noticed they were selling those plastic sheets that make chairs roll over carpet with ease. It had a frosted finish and they were cheap. I am thinking this would be a good glazing material behind the grill. Most important, they were cheap. Can you think of any reasons that this would not be a good idea? I can mount it to the grill's frame with silicone cement.

Did those swedish guys also invaded the US market?

Roger, you did a great job. I like the design of the door and the economic way you found to get such a result. In addition to that, plywood is also quite stable. How long did it take to complete the project?

That's very interesting. Thank you.

I like that kind of design, I'd like to build a bench that style as I saw on FWW few months ago. Good work!

Yes Dave, I did the style: 1 pixel straight line, 3pt extension and texture (beech and walnut). I show you a photo regarding the dovetail joints. As you can see the back board is thinner than the front one.

I'd like to share a couple of photos of a workbench I rencently did under commission. The woodworker that built it gave me some photos and the measures.

Very nice model, looks well done

I hope not to be OT now, but I had a problem in reporting a cutlist text in Layout. I had it on excel and on word but, trying to import it, there was no possibility to insert a .xls or .doc file. I also tried to copy and paste in layout but the final format on LO is unmanageable. Finally I took a screenshot, saved it as .png and imported the cutlist in Layout. What is the correct process for that? Thanks.

Thank you very much Solo. A great work for the community!!

One could in principal make them work on groups rather than components, although, the way I work a "board" (ie piece of wood) is a component. Hence, I work on components.

On Metric. It would be simple to make a metric version. Anyone could do it. One could load in the *.rb's and where ever you see .inch on a variable then change that to .mm. You could change a default .75inch to 19mm for examples. The .inch appears in two ways in these scripts 1) as an extension for declared variables (depth.inch change to depth.mm) or 2) as default values for the input box. Make them whatever you want.

Thanks for the feed back.

Well, I can see what you mean now. Thanks.

Hi everybody, I have a little problem in using Bezier curves. I understand the meaning of their use but when I draw a curve on a solid and, for example, I start from a corner, I can't end it making an inference on the opposite edge of the solid. Take a look to the attached file to better understand. Thanks!
