Starting to Work on a screen door for my back porch. Had some cypress wood that I had picked up in Atlanta Ga. to make Adirondack chairs. But had a more pressing project for a screen door. Looking to make it with a craftsman style look. I have some Marin finish for the final coat and will put...

This is a wine rack I made to donate to a charity auction. I was looking for something in the craftsman style, but I couldn't find anything in any of my books. I found this basic design online and made a few modifications. I'm not sure it looks "mission" enough, but they liked it at the auction...

The walnut mantle was made for our daughter's new house.The dentil molding was cut on the table saw using a box joint set up.

I was asked by a friend of mine to create the original porch railing of his 1930 craftsman style home. I wasn't sure I was up for this job and honestly thought I had gotten myself in over my head. I am not a carpenter. I just enjoy working with wood. I have very little training and what I do...

Over a year from the first bed post, this is the largest project I have done. The design came from Jeff Miller's excellent treatise in 1999 "beds". All white oak from the tree in David Beaty's front yard, super big thanks to Dave and all the hoisting from Tarheel Supply. The rails and other...

A while back I posted the first part of my Entertainment center project (http://lumberjocks.com/projects/59675). The plan was to add a center bridge cabinet and side display cases. I finally had the time to complete the project. The style is Art and Crafts to match the other furniture in the...

This bed is made of solid white oak, except for the panels, which are white oak plywood. All of the lumber came from the same tree and was purchased from a fellow member of my local woodworking club. There are thirty-eight mortise and tenon joints in the headboard. The design of the headboard is...

The railing is part of a three year down-to-dirt demolition and reconstruction of the porch on our 1925 Craftsman style home, necessitated by a sinking foundation. I think of the railing project as another installment payment on bad Karma I earned somewhere. This payment involved 5 weeks of...

Here are a couple pics of a wastebasket I made to help improve the home office. A little Quarter Sawn Oak to brighten the day. Made a short video here

Hello fellow LJ'ers. Just delivered these three bar stools to a semi-local customer. A custom detail was added (note the Cloud Lift on the lower stretchers). The client was very happy, and the celebratory drinks were flowing freely. At the risk of a self-indulgent plug, if you would like to...

I said I would post better pictures after I received them back from photographer,so here they are.You can see the turquoise better now. The table is made from Mesquite and has wenge accents and turquoise inlayed into the cracks. See other pictures of this table: Mesquite Barrell "Stave" Table...

For this project I simply decided to experiment. I wanted to get the frame to appear as though the wood is interwoven between each other while in actuality, it is completely solid. The frame is made from walnut wood and here is the end result.

When the pristine plaster in our 88 year old Craftsman-style home began to crack, we were called out on the condition of our porch. It was sinking on its foundation. So, the porch roof was propped up. I completely demoed everything down to the bare foundation. It's amazing what you can do...

These openers use rare earth magnets which are recessed in the back. They attach to any metal surface and when you open a bottle they catch and hold the tops. ( neat idea some other LBJ member shared a while ago)

We needed to replace our ugly, mismatched, and broken/abused dining table. I built this to match the room's woodwork/trim, which my brother-in-law designed and crafted so beautifully several years back. This long-term project required more than a few "adjustments" and other lessons learned along...

I got this Craftsman Style floor Lamp commission at Christmas from a good friends wife as a surprise birthday present for him. It will reside in Nashville after today. It is made from locally harvested Qt. Sawn White Oak and I used Mica for the shade . A friend and I built 3 different sleds...

African mahogany entry door. This was a great learning experience. I learned you can't just build an all wood door, you mush first "build" the lumber used to construct it, nearly half of the time required to build a solid wood door, that wont warp, is spent preparing the wood. Once done with...

Set of End Tables for the Living room. These are Craftsman style end tables that was a plan in a previous wood magazine.
