After a few previous attempts (which can be seen in my earlier projects), I think I've settled on a design that I really like. I decided to forgo the buttons on the grip, in favor of a more sleek, minimalist approach. Higher resolution images can be seen here. In particular, I'm pretty proud...

This isn't entirely finished but I'm stuck at Reagan airport for the foreseeable future, so I'll post this unfinished. My pal, Matt, wanted to make a pie safe for his Wife's birthday. I offered whatever help and tools I could provide. Matt doesn't know yet that I absolutely hate oak. Anyhow, it...

Older project pics - small bowls and cups the grey looking wood o one small cup came from a huge oak in my yard. When I was splitting logs I noticed these dark blue areas of the wood, streaks and patches of blue. I saved some and turned it and when polished it looks quite grey and lost most...

First, I started by re-sawing some cutoffs and turning blocks I had around the shop. This was mulberry, walnut, sycamore, pine and some dogwood. I passed each piece through the planer to give it a good gluing surface. Then arranged the pieces and glued them together. After the glue dried I...

After the successful launch of my Etsy store, I've been cranking out the combs left and right. Trying new woods and streamlining my processes has been interesting and quite fun. I've determined that I absolutely love cocobolo. Black & white ebony and claro walnut burl are also extremely nice...

I haven't posted any projects for quite a while, but don't let that lead you to believe I haven't been busy! Between my Etsy store, my .com site, local festivals, and large wholesale orders from a handful of select retailers, I've probably made about a thousand of these things by now. Not even...

With a daughter, there was hair dryers and blowers all over the bathroom sink. I hjad seen these in cheap forms and came up with my version that would last a life time. I enjoy working with oak and assembling my projects to where they will last.

Still going strong with the wooden combs! My wife and I have been doing this crazy thing for a couple of years now, and we're loving it. Haven't posted here in a while for lack of larger projects, but I have to throw some love over to LJ's. We've been cranking out other items like razors...
