Adapt our plans to
your style—I do!
My favorite furniture style,
a distinctive take-off on
Arts-and-Crafts design
known as Greene and
Greene, is not well-known.
It’s a furniture design you
seldom find in these pages.
Still, I can use a past
WOOD
®
magazine project
plan to build a G&G piece.
And you can do the same
to make furniture in your
favorite style. Here’s how.
U
sing a
WOOD
magazine project
article as a starting
point in designing a
customized piece,
I save dozens of hours
in creating project
drawings, a materials
list, a cutting diagram,
and formulating the
correct how-to steps.
My simple redesign process goes like this:
1
First, I photocopy and enlarge the
They may look dissimilar, but my G&G
dresser (above) and the country dresser from
issue 111 share a lot of the same DNA.
3
Like the materials list, I’ll often duplicate
and alter the cutting diagram supplied
with the
WOOD
magazine project.
4
For the step-by-step instructions, I
drawings from a magazine project I want
to emulate. Then, I use white correction fluid
to remove elements of the drawing(s) that
don’t match my style. For instance, when
I built the G&G dresser,
above right
, the
carcase construction of the country-style
dresser in issue 111
(inset)
served as a good
model—most of the illustrations showed
exactly what I needed.
2
Next, I make a copy of the materials list,
return to the photocopier to make a copy
of the magazine article. Then, I cut and
paste changes in the construction sequence
wherever I need to add or delete a step.
Typically, I use more than 80 percent of the
existing instructions.
My updated paper copies of the
instructions, drawings, materials list, and
cutting diagram usually aren’t pretty, but
they do serve as an excellent blueprint that
ensures a snag-free project without the
considerable work of starting from scratch.
And because of this system, I rarely make a
costly cutting or construction error.
Give it a try on your next one-of-a-kind
creation. I think you’ll appreciate the
timesaving benefits.
white-out the parts or dimensions that
don’t suit my redesign, and input my new
parts or dimensions. Besides saving time,
I’m assured that the basic design follows
standard design criteria for such things as
overall height, drawer depth, etc. If changes
are substantial, I may start with a blank
materials list. To make this step easy for
you, I’ve created a blank materials list at
woodmagazine.com/designhelp
. You can
access it for free.

Edging bits with the handheld advantage
In your review of plywood edging router
bits (“Blades & Bits,” issue #163, page 10),
you overlooked one important attribute of
my product, The Burgess Edge. The bit set
features bearings that enable the bits to be
used without a router table.
This difference is crucial when edging
large panels or case sides. With these
awkward workpieces, router-table hold-
downs need lots of pressure, which can
make it difficult to feed the panel smoothly
and continuously. Furthermore, the router
can respond to the uneven dips on the
plywood surface more precisely because the
router base is a shorter reference surface
than the router table.
I have used the Burgess Edge set on
countless linear feet of material and never
found it necessary to use a router table.
Michael Burgess, The Burgess Edge
Although we prefer to use the Burgess Edge
set in a router table for smaller, easily
manageable workpieces, we agree that
it’s the only product of those we tested
that can be used effectively in a hand-
held router.
