    More of my Wooden Toy collection after painting. Part of my inspiration came from my Father. My Father was a heavy equipment operator and I built the Crane for him and then went from there.

    Latest effort -Building a new bed One of the main projects which I've done for literally everyone in my house, is to build their beds.

    I have two book matched slabs of aromatic cedar I'm turning into a table. I've never worked with this wood before. Anything I should know? I'm wondering what the best finish is for this type of wood. I like a satin or matt finish. Cheers
