  1. Wenge Wood Man Dish! (or woman)

    African Wenge Wood Man Dish (or woman) The man dish measures 5.5×1.4 Inches. I wanted something not to big, manly with a shine, and have enough thickness and weight that if needed, I could also use it for home defense! Turned with my home made carbide tipped tools, sanded and finished with...
  2. Tsuru Pot

    This pot represents some of my progress in learning hollowing. Still having a tough time with it… although I like that I can make shapes and forms I couldn't make before. This is turned and carved from wet Black Walnut. I've turned several pieces from this log now… but for some reason on this...
  3. Night Stand / Bed Stand - Mission Style (Pine)

    Alright. This was a night stand (Mission Style) I drew up and started WAY to fast. Didn't take the time to plan it all out right, especially not having done this kind of thing before or following any references. However, All was not lost. You can hide a lot of mistakes with paint (And a little...
  4. War Horse Board

    This is a custom board that I did for a client. He sent me an email stating he would like a Patch of his put on a board. After a bunch of research I decided to go the route of Epoxy and colored sand. This was the first Time I have done something like this. The process is a tad more time...
  5. Oak Bar

    Made this bar for a friends fiance who gave it as a surprise wedding gift. Everything is oak with provincial color stain. The structure under the overhang is pretty solid and didnt require any visible brackets or braces. This was my first big project and was definitely a learning experience.
  6. Bar for a friend

    This is a bar I recently made for my friends parents. It has birch raised panels on the front, and open cabinets inside with a single bank of drawers. The stain is called espresso, they wanted it really dark. The pictures didn't turn out as well as id hoped they would, its a rather dark in te=he...

  9. Free form carved bowl....photo shoot.

    I've been trying to inspire my sister to take some photos of some of my projects for quite some time now…. She typically only shoots portraits but I managed to talk her into this one. I think she did pretty good on these! https://www.facebook.com/darbywickersheimphotography/timeline
  10. Crotch Walnut Clock

    My dad was wanting to cut down a walnut tree that was on the edge of a field and offered me the stump. The rest he was using for firewood. There wasn't anything big enough for lumber. When I saw one of the crotches of a branch I asked to have that as well. This was one half of the crotch and...
  11. Wine Rack

    My co-employee asked me to make him a wine rack that is made of wood and in dark brown color, a perfect project for my new homemade bandsaw.

  14. Safety in the Woodworking Shop
    I admit it, I'm addicted to watching woodworking/making youtube. As addictions go, this one is somewhat benign, but there, I said it. I'm an addict. Moving on…I think all of you are familiar with the uncontrollable butt clench that follows watching some supposed expert (well, they are making...
  15. Finishing
    So I am doing sort of a resto-mod on an old walnut veneer dresser. A few months ago I sanded all of the drawers and tried a few different colors of stain on an extra drawer, and decided on minwax's dark walnut. After picking the color, I got to making some new parts and staining them. After a...

    I made a ZCI for my 3/4 dado blade. The raw unadjusted board sets .010" below the table. Will this be an issue that causes problems? I made it using what I call hard board. It is the brown stuff that is slick on one side and rough on the other. Will this absorb moisture from the atmosphere...
