"we-all-nuts" just like the wood Tule is using .  you all are about as quick as a "one legged dog", just like the table Tule is making.  you guys keep lamenting about this project, and Tule is actually laminating this project.  shall I stop and "leaf" you all alone?  oops forgot my smiley. :)

Adding another layer to the "pizza" this morning.This week is dominated with a push to get some redwood siding completed by tomorrow. A 1920's profile with weird dimensions-thank you insert tooling !

I started the walnut wedges on the last "pizza" today. I noticed some slight misfit and corrected it by cutting the wedges twice -taking out board tension. I'm using bookmatched pairs to make the overall look less "busy'. Redwood siding order done for tomorrow. Had another dumped puppy come by the ranch, very sweet kid. The second puppy in two months... >:(

Oh my, you are amazing.  As many irons as you continually have in the fire, how do you keep your fire hot??  :o

Gotta love them puppies.
We just took this pup in 2 months ago. Another dumped, magnificent, kid added to our pack.

wow tule peak, that pup looks like the twin to my wife's pup (not such a pup anymore), fantastic addition to the dog family which we are currently at 6 in total, well 5 and 1/2, the 1/2 being the jack Russell which was the runt of the litter, we call her our "clearance puppy" as she was $100.00 off asking price as she was the runt, now 11 yrs old and a heck of a rodent deterrent around here).  the rest of the pack are all large breed dogs for the farm and night security.  only problem with the wife's dog, even an eight foot high fence wont keep him in when he wants out to chase the 'yotes' for a bit, but a heck of a dog all around.  Will have her get me a pick to post, its a twin in the making, nice looking pup there for sure. (oh and great looking table you are creating there) ;D

Good looking pup!  I miss my GSD.  Mr Count showed up here about January - dumped Coon hound. Poor guy was so skinny that we had a doggie jacket on him to keep him warm and one time the collar was up - looked just like a vampire - thus the name Mr Count.  We thought he was deaf and old based on his looks and behavior, even the vet thought he was old at first - nope, just mal-nourished and had zero idea how to interact with people, all the poor guy ever knew was get tossed into a dog box and run deer until you can't walk any longer then get tossed back into the box.  Lymes positive, Elercia positive, Heart Worm positive, intact - yea the "sport of gentleman".  Every year we see a couple show up here just like him.

Good for you and good for Mr count !We have a house full of pups , some more damaged than others and I wouldn't have it any other way. Tremendous stress relief to spoil these loving creatures and watch them come out of their "shells". I'm sure your life is better for it also Southside.

 Someone took the time to hit this little girl so hard on the left side of her face as a pup she lost her eye, teeth and part of her jaw. When we got her and her brother they were so mangled they were barely able to walk. Dumped on the side of a highway.Anyway I have more dog pics than Jeff has server space. Cheers !

That is so sad that someone would be that mean to a animal that is doing nothing wrong in my eyes.

 I'm amazed by people in both directions all the time. This guy was dropped off as a pup, just before Christmas one year, in the face of a heavy snow. We actually saw the truck roar off when he spotted us, the dog chasing behind it.






Our black and tan, another dropoff who apparently failed hunter training, had him rounded up and at the door in short order "He followed me home, can I keep him?"





Did you happen to get a closeup shot of the custom siding pattern, I always like seeing different patterns than just the run of the mill stuff, there used to be so many.

tule peak timber

Love your pup pics......
    The old redwood pattern is 7 5/16 face with 70 degree +- edge relief. Clear heartwood. More pics of the pizza tomorrow.

The precision to cut all of those pieces knowing you would not tolerate gaps is incredible. Something that is very rare in woodworking. That looks fantastic. 

tule peak timber

DWyatt, Thanks. I did get a small gap between the first two boards and quickly figured out a "fix" by double cutting all subsequent boards for really tight joints. This is one time where clamps don't help---the boards either fit, or they don't. Each board was developed from a 6/4 blank and  immediately glued in, one at a time. This process took all week to fill in the field.
  Equally challenging was getting all the needle like tips to converge on a single point, again not perfect, but close.  Cheers Rob

Kinda looks like a big mushroom cap.  

The book matched pieces give it a nice look! It's a biggun.

Sand, sand, sand, and then sand some more :).

Looks fantastic.

After days of sanding,,,, a one piece 3 inch thick top today. The grain is starting to pop with the seal coat.

Catching up on reading, yust got in from 'analog land': nuthin digital out in the boonies.
That table looks GREAT!
Book matched pizza slices, and a base underneath that has the strength of an anvil.

I wouldn't want you to reveal any super secret trade tricks, but is a Festool track saw the best way to get those air tight joints?
