  1. A Footstool for Mama

    As you can imagine, Carleen can have just about anything she wants, from the shop that is. So…... Why did she opt for a stool with nothing but straight legs? It has definite Arts and Crafts attributes. The idea came from a stool I made more than 30 years ago. That stool also was made from Red...
  2. Footrest

    I was asked by one of my wife's coworkers if I could make a little footrest for her to use at work. She drew something on paper that didn't look anything like a footrest to me. I have never really used Sketch-Up before but I thought I would play with it to make a quick 3D drawing of what I was...

  6. Foot Stool - a/k/a: Kindling Box

    I feel that every personalized project has a story. This is my story for this particular project. Regarding fellow member, "htl", in his High School stool project. He said: "I built this in shop class with all hand tools in JR. High School some time around 1964 or 65" . . . . This is the...

  9. A very poplar foot stool

    Well this is my first foot stool. I needed one that could sit in front of the bathroom sink and allow the door to open/close. So I went to my spare wood stack and I chose to use this poplar wood. The only new technique I used was to put a dowel between each leg and the middle piece to ensure it...

  11. Scrap Wood Foot Stools

    This is a departure from my usual work; and is intended more as an exercise in utilizing shop-scraps. Perhaps the most expensive foot stools ever made. I recently upgraded my shop's main equipment, and needed a non-commission focus for the get-acquainted period with my new equipment - I...
  12. Ergonomic Foot Stool

    A little while ago I built myself a "High Rise Rocking Chair". After using that for a bit it seemed to need a nice stool to go with it, so this little rig is the result. I call it an 'Ergonomic Foot Stool", and it is built to be used in at least two directions, open-sided so you can turn it...
  13. My boy

    In an attempt to get my son interested in wood work he was asked to design something that I would make. He chose an Ottoman and this what he came up with. The internal storage was his idea. I think the intention is it is for storage of gaming discs (XBox). He has a few. Now that it finished...
