A. Sewing Table #1.skp (884.2 KB)







I saw my wife’s sewing machine on the dining room table and decided to make this model. I found a model on line with a lift to conceal the sewing machine when marking and cutting fabric and asked her what she thought. She said that she would prefer a table without a cut-a-way or a lift, so I modeled this table. When she looked at it after I was in the process, she advised me to use shiplap to hide the space in the back and side of the the drawer boxes.

A. Shark Fin Woody #1.skp (189.5 KB)







Here’s a wood handplane for shooting board use. Note the Shark Fin. At first I was not sure how to make it, but it was easy after using a combination of the follow me tool and using a blank to cut out the other sides arc, then erasing the unneeded edges and faces.

A. Lazy Susan with Container #1.skp (243.3 KB)






This Lazy Susan’s components are joined together with glue, rabbets and grooves. The parts are small. Sliding doors are featured with small Pull/Knobs. Care would have to be taken to round the ends of the Doors so that neighboring Doors can open.

Can this be bolted down in case someone wants to spin it really fast to open all of the doors at once?

Maybe, if you lubricate the components with parafin wax. :wink:

A. Mallets #1.skp (226.9 KB)






I cut a crepe myrtle that is big enough to make some mallets. I might make a few. :wink:

A. Branch Bird Feeder #1.skp (157.7 KB)





A portable bird feeder using a cinder block and a forked branch was the idea behind this model.

A. Frame A #1.skp (117.0 KB)





This is a picture frame with “L” shaped floating tenons and aids to use for laying out a blank and to miter in SketchUp using trim or subtract tools.
