Location: East TX
Website:
Just moved to Texas about 2006 from So, California.
Built a 1000 sqft workshop since I was tired of working in a 2 car garage. I build furniture mostly.
I am self taught starting about 1990. I tend to never make anything more than once (unless it comes as a set). I really enjoy trying new things and experimenting.

Breadbox Class #8: Finishing up
Now we want to cleanup all the holes we have made. As you can see below I chose a light colored wood. Just poplar dowels I picked up at Lowes. You can use dark colored wood if you don’t want a contrast. First I cut up the dowels. T...

Breadbox Class #6: Attaching the ends
Here’s what you’ll need to attach the ends. I use 1/4” dowels as spacers, but you can use 1/4” thick pieces of wood if you like. I set the sides on the spacers to keep them 1/4” off the table. Then using...

Breadbox Class #5: Gluing up the sides
Now for something simple. Gluing up the long sides. You will need to make a 5 1/2” wide piece out of scrap wood. Maybe a couple of smaller ones. They are used as spacers for the glue up and that’s all. This assures that the opening ...

Amen to that one!!!(about the apple) Just checked out your work and quite honestly all I can think to say is WOW!! Just beautiful. And ya know, where does someone get wood like that mahagany you used for the dresser and headboard you made? I am serious, never really thought about it before, just curious. Allison

Hey GaryK,
Thanks for the message. I am quite inspired by your free-standing shop!
Love the bench by the way, I can only hope to emulate. Of course I have all the workbench books known to man. and am dead keen to get that moving after dust-collection in the new space. From what I’ve read I need to come to terms with the fact I will end up building a few benches over time, so to not try and solve everything on the first one! I am also impressed and interested at the variety (and skill) of your work. I will be peeking further into your little world a little deeper in the coming days….
