  1. Walnut four poster bed

    Walnut Four Poster Bed, I was trying to create a "floating" head and foot board, somewhat disconnected from the posts. The head and foot boards are basic floating panels in a frame. the pannels are resawn and book matched. Nothing fancy, just trying to tweak the norm a bit. I have yet to build...
  2. 4 Poster Bed

    This is the third thing that I have ever made [ that SWBMT would allow in the house. lol] over 10 years ago. I did not turn the legs or the blanket roll [ that is the next skill I wish to master or at least become fairly good at], they were turned by a friend of mine who had a lathe with an...
  3. Matched King Size Bed | Custom

    Cleaning out my storage area I came across a couple nightstands that were left a alone. Someone bought the bed. Since it is very hard to sell nightstands by themselves, I heavy discounted them and ran them on Craigslist and sold them. There was a catch, the customer wanted a bed to match. The...
  4. poker chip case

    This was a Christmas present for one of my boys. Saw it in one of the woodworking mags. a while back. Red oak and walnut. It breaks down to 4 pieces. The base and top capture the two trays holding the chips so the whole thing doesn't have to go to the table. Bought the chips on sale after...
  5. Custom Yellow Canopy w/Trundle | Custom

  6. Brockman 4 Poster Bed | Custom

    This is a kid's bed that was completed in June 2011 and went to Council Bluffs, Iowa. The customer found a bed that they liked but needed a trundle and drawers under it. Since the bed itself wasn't set up for a trundle we started from scratch. The finish was a custom off white color which gave...
  7. Wood & Lumber
    I remember an article published a year or so ago in a popular woodworkers mag and bought into it but now I'm not so sure. The article dealt with green wood. It stated, by some woodworker,s that they took green wood and submerged it into a cheaper (not costing much) dish detergent (Costco brand...

    November 10, 2010 My intent for Way Back Wednesday was to post pictures of project that go back years. Some that are even PC (Pre-Chris). I thought I'd start first with the "Original Crew". The first picture is Gary (my dad) and three of his brothers (Jeff, Larry, and Curtis). Not pictured...

    I have a friend who wants to have the 4 beams put on top of her canopy bed, she said she doesn't want to put any heavy material on it, mostly just sheers. the question I have is since these beams are pretty long, how can keep them from drooping over the years? are they simple one piece or should...
