WoodTreks
My name is Keith Cruickshank. For as long as I can remember, I’ve been building or sculpting things with wood. I appreciate the beauty of wood and I like to design and create in wood. It turns out, I also have an interest in filmmaking and a background with the internet. I now host this personal video blog, where I shoot, produce, and publish videos about wood art and craft - and the people who make it happen. I do this for fun. It’s my passion.
Make Your Own Treadle Lathe
This design and construction guide was written in response to many requests I've received over the years for a source for plans, instructions or drawings for a foot-powered treadle lathe. I have used this shop-built lathe at traditional woodworking demonstrations and it never fails to draw an interested crowd. It is also a practical tool, having a permanent home in the center of our traditional tool workshop.
The Ring Thing and The Camel and the Needle
From Mother Earth News comes two great puzzle plans!

You'll find that both games offer plenty of indoor diversion for a winter's evening.
