I have a woodshop class in highschool and for our second quarter project i have to make whatever i want from wood. I was thinking y not make a snowboard. I don’t think it would be too hard. But now i can’t find any sites where there are woodworking plans on how to make a snowboard. Any ideas? And if that doesn’t work out maybe give a couple suggestions on making something else? I was thinking maybe making something for my girlfriend.

I’m relatively new to woodworking..and have a plan for a chair I want to build. The plan says "every block equals one inch"…I get that, but how do I enlarge the scale drawing to full size so I can cut a template? If this is obvious, I’m just missing it. Thanks!
There are several methods I use to enlarge, or reduce, a drawing/pattern.
One is to use the computer to resize. This works best for smaller projects.
You can use a copy machine or take the pattern to an office shop, like Kinko’s, and have them enlarge it to the size/scale you want.
You can use the "Grid" method. Here’s a great article explaining it.

You can use a pantograph. This article shows you how to make your own (it’s very simple) and how to use it.

At first i drew up a design for a pair of speakers but the specificity of the electronics scratched that plan. Then i drew up plans for a pair of sawhorses based off a pair i found online but i don’t really have a need for them. What would be a good project(include plans if possible), or should i stick with one of these ideas?

Try estate Sales. Widows unload their husband’s tools quite cheaply.
That is how my spouse outfitted his shop

My father died and kept wonderful care of a lot of useful tools. Chandler area. woodworking, general home repair, automotive, etc. I would like a reputable organization who could use these as a donation or pass them on to someone who can. Must be able to pick them up.
I feel sure that Habitat for Humanity could use them or would know of someone else. There should be a toll-free number in
the yellow pages of your local phone directory. If not, there is a website for information. Bless you for thinking to pass your Dad’s tools on!
