A. Horton Brasses, SL 6 Butler Pantry Latch #2.skp (917.8 KB)
Here is more Horton Brasses hardware.
Edit: I updated this when I noticed that the Latchbolt Catch didn’t meet the Latchbolt
correctly and the orientation didn’t match the image. I edited the screenshots and deleted the old screenshots.

A. Compass Slicing Gauge #1.skp (330.1 KB)
This is based on the image of a Steve Latta - Circle Cutter that used to be made by Lie-Nielsen. I used my own dimensions that seemed about right to me.

A. Slicing Gauge #1.skp (359.2 KB)
Another model based on the Steve Latta stringing tool set that used to be made by Lie-Nielsen. Again, these dimensions are just my best guess.

A. Stringing Thicknesser #1.skp (477.9 KB)
The last of the Steve Latta stringing tool set that Lie-Nielsen used to make is a Stringing Thicknesser that is fastened to a benchtop with an F-clamp. The dims. are my best guess.

A. String Mortise Cutter #2.skp (56.3 KB)
I remeber Michael Fortune had an article about a tool like this in Fine Woodworking Magazine, but I don’t remember the date or issue number.
Edit: Re-posted the skp with correction as seen in @mihai.s ’ video.

What is it used for?
It is used to make a thin groove for stringing. Only straight lines, though. It would not work for curved lines with changing wood grain directions.

A. Panel with Inlay.1, #1.skp (215.6 KB)
Steve Latta, “Add Pop to Panels,” Jul-Aug 2018, Issue #269 FWW magazine - is the reference for this panel with Stringing.He routed with a Dremel with an end mill 0.030-in. and 1/16 in. cutting diameter. He had a Stewmac.com Plunge Router Base #5806 with the Dremel.
He explains in the article that he had to stop short of corners and start again after them, and then he came back with either a chisel or small gouge to cut the corners. He also glued the three inlay strings together in small length segments and clamped them with paper clips. Can you imagine?

The reference for this hinge is Fine Woodworking Magazine, “Quadrant Hinges,” Adrian Ferrazzutti, Issue # 207 (Sep-Oct 2009).

A. Viola Latch #1.skp (1.6 MB)
I tried to find the latch that Adrian Ferrazzutti used in his article. Lee Valley no longer carries it. I found one similar by Viola of UK. This one has a fancier escutcheon. It would be a challenge making the mortise I’m guessing with gouges and chisels.

A. Bench Column Holding Fixture #1.skp (252.9 KB)
After watching a blog video on the Fine Woodworking site, I decided to model this jig fixture (something like Patrick Edwards was using when he was veneering a column).

A. Log Holding Fixture #1.skp (217.3 KB)
I modeled this for planing the top of a log. It could also be made into a bandsaw sled by adding a runner under the Base that would be sized to fit into the miter slot. If used for handplaning, a fence or planing stop would be clamped with the vise ahead of the log holding fixture for additional support. Since I’ve started tagging the group text, I can make the dimensions scences with tags on. I tagged the text group dark blue. Of course,
if I want to print the dims., I would keep it black and white.

My wife took a picture of a female Tanninger and a Titmouse at our birdbath. That inspired me to try this model.

A. Pencil Holders and Base #1.skp (119.0 KB)
Another version of Pencil Holders and Base. I was practicing with Native Trim. In this case there is no difference with the newest changes because of no repeated symetrical copies. I also am starting to use Shaded with Textures style for the blank white background for the scenes.

A. Toy House #1.skp (570.3 KB)
This is a take off from Nancy Hiller’s article in Fine Woodworking Magazine. She made it taller and as an architectural piece that hangs on the wall. I made it into a Toy House with a staircase inside going to the 2d floor (shelf). I was thinking of grandkids with Lego figures.

A. Handled Coopered Basket.skp (479.3 KB)
My first attempt at modeling this coopered basket with a handle inspired by Peter Lutz in his Fine Woodworking Magazine article. I didn’t get all the dimensions right.
the short staves are a little longer and the angle where the staves meet is 11.1 degrees and should be 11.25 degrees. That would change the diameter of the bottom, I think. Alignment of the long staves with the short stave is a hair off, too.
