Build Two Workbenches in an Afternoon

I showed up at John Sindelar’s Tool Museum almost an hour late on Saturday morning after an evening at a Chicago tapas restaurant that pushed my bedtime to 1 a.m. The museum, which is also Sindelar’s commercial woodworking business, was hopping with gawkers and tool collectors who had come to see the new additions to … Read more »

Quick reminder: I’ll be in southwest Michigan this Saturday (June 4) giving demonstrations and generally mopping up the drool in my vicinity at the open house of tool collector John Sindelar.
