  1. Unique Keepsake Box from a Beginner Lumberjock

    Hi everyone, I finally finished my girlfriend's Hope Chest that I have been working on for the last several weeks. I knew I wanted to make a keepsake box for her for her birthday, so while I was in 'woodworking mode' I decided to go ahead and make a keepsake box for her. I used the leftover...

  3. Bud Light Lime F/A-18

    Well, tough to hide where my inspiration came from tonight…ha. Seriously though I found plans to an aluminum can F-18 today but need to drink a few more Coke Zeros to have enough cans to make one. So an empty bottle in the garbage inspired this little jewel tonight. Anyway, I guess I'll have...
  4. Display case for Trophy Belt

    I was asked to find a way to display one of those huge trophy belts, like wrestlers get. I was totally free to make all design choices, so I stuck a nail in the wall, hung it, and said "There ya go!" Not really. I decided to use my new lock-miter bit and make a glass-front shadowbox. The case...
  5. American flag

    OK so it's not wood. It is glass: cut, fused, slumped and firepolished. The stars were cut on a waterjet and the rest by hand. Please don't ask how I did it because you would just get confused. I will say it is no walk in the park. It has a base I made out of Granite, but I am thinking of making...
  6. Wood and Glass Display Case

    This is a really simple pine display case that I built with the extra wood that I had laying around and glass from an old picture frame. This was a practice case. My father in law collects fishing lures and asked me to make a few of these, but bigger. This project taught me not to install the...

  8. Medal Display Cabinet

    This is a medal display cabinet that I built for my next door neighbor's son. It was to display all the medals he accumulated during his high school sporting career. I made the whole thing from some select pine. There is a small V groove cut in all the shelves for the medals to rest in. I...
  9. Ships wheel coffee table

    I bought this solid brass ship's wheel in Wakkanai Japan in 1970 from a scrap dealer for about $10.00. I have been moving it all around with me for the last 39 years. Finally, I decided to make it into a usable piece of furniture. The crossed feet are some kind of mahogany from wooden boat plank...

    this is my first own design for a peice of furniture. its something i dreamed up as i wanted to do something steel and use up a box of old junk so i made this at home out of a whole bunch of old tools dad found at the dump a while back and some deformed concrete reinforcing bar. in the beginning...
  11. Coffee table

  13. A Unique Shade

    Alright I know that this is glass and not wood, but I am in the process of making the lamp and I wanted to share this major accomplishment with all of you. This is my first stained glass piece and like all of my other firsts this one was a small project that turned out huge. I am making the...
  14. Oak Coffee Table

    MADE BY MY FATHER It took some time for him to collect all those corks, but it was defiantly worth it. The top is quarter sawn white oak. The grain matches around the base. I really love this table.
  15. Cooper Project: Torii Stairwell Barrier

    This is a stairwell barrier that I designed and built based on a Japanese torii gate. It is made of black walnut, black walnut veneered panels, brushed steel, and 1/2" tempered glass. You do not need to have a handrail and balusters for a stairwell barrier. The clients wanted something unique...
  16. Cantilevered End Table

    This is my cantilevered end table that I built over a span of about 3-4 months from designing, building models, large mock ups of the joints, and eventually the actual table. I had an absolute blast figuring everything out and although originally made as an end table it is now a side table in...
  17. Arts and crafts style curio cabinet my wife uses for her angel collection.

    I made this cabinet a little while ago. It is in the style of the arts and crafts movement and I had beveled glass installed in the doors.
  18. Corner Entertainment Center

    This is a two piece unit. It stands 89 inches tall and is 38" wide by 38" deep. This project took me a year and a half to complete, not because it was difficult, but because I couldn't devote the time to working in the freezing cold temperaters of a Minnesota winter in my unheated garage. In...
  19. Kimber 1911 Display Box

    My life long friend and colleague retired after 32 years of service with the Fire Department. Instead of a gold watch, we all pitched in and bought him a Kimber Custom 1911 45 cal handgun.
