I think that would be a perfectly good jaw vise. But only put in a few dog holes, as shown in their product photos, to maximize rigidity.

I'd tip out the pot and gently separate the saplings. Hopefully they're not too entangled. Go ahead and replant in the ground with the same potting soil, taking care to make the holes deep enough for the tap roots. They're long!

We have the Brother HL-L3230CDW and are happy with it. Works fine with inexpensive toner cartridges from Amazon.

There's a groove on the insides of the walls that the plywood fits into.

Plain wood glue for the corners but the bottom is not glued in order to let the sides move with humidity changes.

Our toddler messing with this glass scale was the inspiration! I bet an off the shelf letter holder would work.

Canada, awful wild fires last summer.

Yep! They let the top expand and contract with the seasons.

Gotta spend about 10% of your "shop time" on organization and cleaning!

Thanks! We're joking that it'll wind up as a dorm room coffee table some day.

Between centers on the lathe. I first cut out a bunch of thin squares on the bandsaw.

1. Mark out center
2. With a compass draw the diameter
3. Drill the axle hole
4. Mount between centers. I have a matching ring drive and tail center with adjustable points so locating small stuff like this is pretty easy.
5. Turn to diameter with a small bowl gouge and add embellishments

Why does the drawer front cover the legs?

My guess is that the alcohol rehydrated the cells, causing them to expand and then shrink back. This might have introduced just enough stress for them to split.
