The absence of an accident does not mean the presence of safety; push sticks are expendable; fingers are not.

Edgebanding without sanding: call attention to the joint rather than trying to hide it. Because you won't hide it.

An accurate setup made from scraps can help you salvage lumber that is too crooked to frame with but could be great for blocking or furring strips

Frank Howarth needed a new door for his pantry, so he turned to some Sequoia slabs that he and a buddy cut up a few years ago. 

And then he made a film about it.

Use scraps to offset the straight edge allowing you to cut each edge of the dado with opposite edges of a router bit

One of those things that you keep forgetting how to do, because you don't do it that often

Masking tape and a sharp knife are hard to beat for production precision

Make a pattern using elliptical sticks, and then use a router with flush-cut bit to replicate onto the big stock

A really simple template, a really repetitive process, and a lot of glue go into this not-so-weekend project.

In case you were getting tired of Glulams and LVLs

Use tape to clamp and only glue where you have to.

Which method is better—by hand or machine?

First-time attempts at joints this woodworker has never seen before

All you need to build this table is biscuits, bowties, Festools, and straight edges...
