Hopefully by that time they can take the 1.5 foot drop to the ground without bothering me. -
Building myself a Jay Bates' MoXen block with an eye towards using it for a mortising jig among other things. Since I don't have any thick pieces of hardwood around, I'm laminating a five pieces of MDF. I used the Festool angle jig thing for the first time and I'm happy with it. Glue up. I cut the piece in the center oversized so I can use it as a straight edge to trim the opposite side. This is the first time I've used parallel clamps and I can understand the attraction people have to them - nice big clamping surface and plenty of torque. -

After the glue on th added slats dried, I had to start leveling the panel. All the clamps and cauls at my disposal failed to keep the slats from shifting around. Fortunately, the electric hand plane excels at bulk stock removal. The back side has no grooves, and was facing down during glue-up. Lots more squeeze-out to remove, and offset edges to smooth out. The electic plane leaves tracks, so I followed it with a smoothing plane, and in some spots, another tool. The spokeshave: it isn't just for spindles anymore. -
The real fun starts when she gets big enough to start attempting to shinny over the railing. -
Finally got sit outside weather. Our deck is a great play pen so i get about 5 min of this a day now. And times up time to stop the toddler from trying to self destruct.
