I am a lurker at heart, but I thought I should help get things going. This is a chest for my timber framing/carpentry tools. Inspired by the plans in the anarchists tool chest. Ripping was done in the bandsaw, otherwise its hand tools only.

    It is a swedish word for handicrafts. Derrived from an old word for “clever”. In woodworking it usually means working with green wood and making everyday items like spoons, spreaders and shrink pots. Often utilising the different properties of wood like bends, shrinkage, etc. I have seen it spelled slojd in English.
