Woodworking Crafts – Issue 100

We’re celebrating issue 100 of Woodworking Crafts with generous giveaways from Makita and BeaverCraft Tools, plus we have free books to add to your woodworking library! We’re also marking this milestone with a look back over memorable covers from issue 1 to 100.

As always, we have plenty of Projects to inspire you. Charles Mak makes a folding stand to hold a book or tablet; Kev Alviti reproduces a wooden tote for tool storage; Dave Western carves a floral bouquet; Andy Coates turns and decorates a bowl; Simon Rodway shares his design for a loveseat; Mark Palma explains how to provide better footing for stationary woodworking tools; Colin Sullivan builds a stand-up vice; in an extract from his new book, Dave Western carves a ‘hot rod’ flame spoon; Daniele Villani makes a folding table; Anthony Bailey uses waney edge timber and rare earth magnets to make a knife rack; Fred and Julie Byrne make a mechanical snake toy; and Kez Halliday builds tone and texture in a pyrography study of a kingfisher.

In our Techniques articles, Derek Jones explains how to use moulding planes; Louise Biggs shows how to repair damaged veneer; Geoffrey Laycock demonstrates safe tool sharpening; and Alan Holtham troubleshoots bandsaw blades.

In Features, we meet Louise and Simon Taggart, the husband and wife team behind woodturning and pottery business, Blended Monkey; and former branding designer Neil Paterson tells us how he came to set up his box-making company welikeless.
