I'm making some replacement sliding sashes for someone in the village which gives me the opportunity to use some old moulding planes - and a much needed break from noisy and dusty machines.

Another window fitted at the rear of the Walnut Tree - only a small aperture but still taking full advantage of two opening sashes. The oak has been limed on the interior, finished with @treatexuk and @suffolklatchcompany furniture. Just to do some making good and fit a new window board.

Window upgrade before and after. Anyone have any tips on lime-based caulking/sealant for around the frame? Very keen not to use mastic.

Scribing a rather large oak kick rail with the some new @whitehilltools scribes and the #whitehillcombi block. Cuts like butter even on my chinesium spindle. Excuse the lack of guards too.

A bit of joint making, doubling up a short tenon with some dominos on this jamb/threshold joint. It might be overkill but it's a big frame for a big door.

Up for grabs is this English elm and oak box that I've recently finished.
.
.
The sides are made from a beautiful piece of character elm, and the top, base and inner compartments are made from puppy oak. The top has been hand-textured to give contrast to what lies inside.
.
.
Inside is fully lined with blue pigsuede leather, with a removable compartment and a note store in the lid.
.
.
The hinges are top quality solid brass @brussohardware made in the USA.
.
.
The box measures 200x125x75mm making it perfect for stationery, jewelry and trinkets.
.
.
For £120 this box can be yours - and I'll include postage to mainland UK.

I've been having some fun the past few days with starting to make the windows for the house. I'm using fairly deep sections to take double glazing which will make the house that much warmer. The oak for the sashes is dimensioned ready to be moulded, mortised and tenoned and put together next week...Lots of oak, shavings and dust for now.
