Fall in love with your life, or take out the chisel and sculpt it till it seduces you.

Into the gap
One of the things that resulted from the COVID pandemic was that I wound up teaching the OCIA course for our church (long story). The students got their sacraments at the Easter Vigil Mass, and I decided to make crucifixes for them as a gift. This should be a pretty straightforward project — mill out pieces of wood for the upright and crosspiece portions of the cross, cut a lap joint, glue, finish, and attach the corpus and INRI plaque.
But it is a truism in woodworking that the smaller projects are the hardest to do, because you see every detail. And for this crucifix, there was a detail that bugged me.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
On the lower part of the bridle joint to the left, there's a bit of a gap. That's where I went a little off my line. It happens. Structurally, this joint would be fine, but visually this stuck out to me like a sore thumb. The good thing is that this is pretty easy to mitigate.
The way I fix small gaps in joinery like this is to use plane shavings to fill in the void. The first thing is to figure out the best orientation for that shaving. You want the shaving to go with the grain of one of the two parts of the joint. In this case, it would be along the grain of the crosspiece.
Then make some shavings from another piece of wood that's the same species as the piece. (It does occur to me that if you use a contrasting piece of wood for this, you've moved from fixing a gap in a joint to making inlay.)
Tumblr media
Japanese planes are well known for their ability to make gossamer-thin shavings less than 0.001" thick. That's not what we want here.
I test fit the shaving until I find the section that fits well, and then trim down the shaving with a pair of scissors.
Tumblr media
Then glue up and clamp the joint. I'm a big fan of liquid hide glue overall, but it's especially good in this situation because it makes the shavings slippery enough so that everything fits together. Don't worry that the joint will look like one of Phyllis Diller's outfits. We'll fix that later.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
After the glue dries, the joint will look like a mess. Again, don't worry.
Tumblr media
Now I use a chisel to get rid of most of the shavings hanging off the joint as well as the dried glue squeeze out, and a plane to bring everything flush. The joint looks much better now.
Tumblr media
As it turned out, I was also making a small divider for a container that sits in one of our kitchen drawers, and left a little gap in that joint as well. I used the same technique to fix that, even though it will sit in a drawer, and will never see the light of day, because that's what woodworking has done to me.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
For the crucifix, I used shellac and wax for the finish, and attached the corpus and INRI plaque. It turned out pretty nice.
Tumblr media
And that's when I noticed that Jesus's head would have covered up that gap anyway. I guess Jesus really does save.

This is the cell of Daniel the Hesychast in the Neamț County. Daniil was a famous ascetic, whom Prince Stephen III the Great (1457-1504) often consulted on matters of both personal salvation and politics.
Situated only one mile away from another historic landmark (Putna Monastery), this place of solitude and prayer was built by a single man, Daniil Sihastrul, that used nothing but a chisel in his quest of being as close to God as possible.

Since I've already done a DUSK-inspired build, I guess I should continue the New Blood FPS Trilogy theme with a hallway inspired by ULTRAKILL's Limbo levels (I would do one inspired by Lust, but I don't have the energy to build an entire cyberpunk city and giant zombie).

"spotted fever"

It seems a half hearted revision -- pale pink. Normally it is a white shirt they toss into cleavage. As is often the case, they miss a panel of two.

Very slight addition of bubble at a sensitive spot ...

And they have given Veronica a slightly bigger towel. As is often the case in these revisions.

Geno (Mario RPG) Stimboard (with themes of stars, woodworking, and the color blue) for Anon
x x x / x x / x x x
[Image description: a 9 gif stimboard; from left to right.
First line: a gif of a net curtain with silvery stars and moons being drawn across a window, a gif of someone sanding a piece of wood with resin stars inserted into the wood, and a gif of someone stirring small wax melts shaped like stars with a spoon in a bowl.
Second line: a gif of someone using a chisel to cut lines in a carved wooden leaf, a still image of the character Geno from Mario RPG, and a gif of a intricate curly design into wood with a CNC machine.
Third line: a gif of tiny stars made from amber sugar being tipped into a bowl from a small jar, a gif of someone pouring epoxy resin into a carved table (the wooden table is carved to look like a river bank or canyon), and a gif of someone moving their fingers under a net curtain making the silvery tarss on the fabric glint in the light.

Corner posts for the upper frame of the compost sifter cut on the table saw, then smoothed with a chisel.
Tumblr media
Upper frame glued together with more of the milled 1x4s. 1/2” conduit used as slides. Sifter box mocked up to test for space to shake it.
Almost done!

Display of Chinese woodworking tools at the Takenaka Carpentry Museum in Kobe, Japan. I wasn't able to capture this in a photo, but the chisels are clearly laminated. There's only one other occasion that I've seen Chinese chisels up close and personal, and it appeared that those chisels had a laminated construction as well.
For me this isn't a surprise, as throughout Asian history there's a consistent pattern of techniques originating in China, and imported to Japan.
