I've just been going through some old pictures, and thought it was about time I added one of my projects to this thread...

This was a small en-suite cloakroom (no shower) I did for my girlfriend's step-father in one of the attic rooms. This was what I started with:

After moving the header tank, building a couple of new walls, and a bit more besides, it looked like this:

It's a 2 piece bird table to go around a structural pole.

Hi All, This is my first real post on the forum, and my first ever serious woodworking project.  I took a few days off work recently to go to the annual wood show. Picked up the TS 55 REBQ track saw and 1400 rail then set to work on building a bed frame. Being new at this, I proceeded pretty slowly (measure twice, etc) ...  but now I'm close to finished and pretty happy with the result!

The end and side rails are plantation mahogany, finished with 3 coats of Danish oil. I used pine for the slats and inside support rails. Even though the project was fairly simple, I learned a lot. I just wanted to say that many of the tips on this forum have been invaluable .. I spent many hours before (and during) the project reading about the TS 55 in particular. So thanks everyone for your postings, they really do help!

Looks awesome! That's a crazy amount of systainer action. I think if they started multiplying like that around my parts I'd probably get shot.

What is the rated maximum load on a CT Midi anyway?
 
Systainers are sort of like Trbbles (star trek)

they keep multiplying and multiplying on and on
 
Hey David,  [welcome] to FOG!   great looking bed, surely something you will be able to enjoy for many years

Thanks John.  Really happy with how it turned out and can't wait to take on the next project.  Either shop cabinets or a new gate for the side path, I think.

My vote would go to shop cabinets, there is nothing like having a clean, organized place to work in. you will be a lot more productive.  one word of advice is spend A LOT of time designing your layout.  take measurements of everything you are going to want to store and figure out the measurements of tools you expect to purchase in the future to build in room for expansion.  give everything a home on paper before you start cutting wood so you have a logical, well thought out plan and you will save a lot of time in the end not having to make changes.

David welcome and thanks for shaing your bed!!  Looks real nice.

Well enjoy your new saw also

I think the bird table looks good. I like the finish.

Nice shop.
While that cabinet looks like it's solidily constructed, I don't really understand all the different types of wood species used on that cabinet...can you explain?
Tim
 
Well,
I'm no newbie at FOG. But everytime I spend time in the shop I feel like a newbie. I have to work hard to get things right. And most of my shop-time is spent working on the shop (seems like a common syndrome here at FOG).

Anyway. Here is my last build:
