Three bottle stoppers. One walnut, one padouk, one olive wood. Fun little projects. Kits are from Woodcraft.

I haven't posted in a while but thought I would put up some of the recent clocks that I have put together in the past few months. Two are from black acacia logs I acquired on craigslist. One from a cookie and the other just from a left over bit after I attempted to slab the log up. Not as easy...

I'm just getting into woodworking and I'm trying to get a feel for the different types of woods. This picture shows four of my cigar pens using (from top down) bloodwood, zebrawood, padauk, and olive.

Some of the olive I milled recently on my bandsaw seemed dry enough to work, and I made this heart from a small piece of it. The grain seems really eye-catching to me, and there's something of a double meaning in the finished product: Olive branches being traditionally associated with 'peace,'...

The specifics: Walnut and Russian olive, about 11"x 11"x 5-1/4". I imagine most everyone here that builds a new version of an older project will think of what was good/bad and try to improve things. I made a quick desktop organizer a while back out of necessity for a growing clutter of things...

Once in a while we are contacted to provide marquetry panels for other cabinet makers. This is an old tradition for the french to subcontract the marquetry. We have at the American School of French Marquetry an early example of this practice. It is an intact 1874 panel shipped by french...

Between working full time and working on an MBA I'm finding it hard to make time to kick up some sawdust these days. Luckily I was able to get a few hours here and there over the last few weekends. I had a piece of walnut leftover from the desk project, and saw this idea in a magazine, and ran...

This board/ centerpiece is made from olive wood and natural turquoise stones. Together, those two materials create the most incredible color combination. Finished with mineral oil.

This is the second glass ball coffee table I have made. My brother does glass blowing as a hobby at his local community arts centre and made me another very cool large glass ball. This one has a very nice wispy-curly smoke pattern. When I posted my first glass ball table people wondered...

These are my choices for the third entry in the competition. The first one is Dalmation wood. All one piece with carved feet. The neat thing about this bowl, besides the gorgeous wood, is that the feet and the bottom of the bowl are EXACTLY the same level and the bowl will spin like a a gyro...

A neighborhood friend had an olive tree cut down in his yard several years ago. He had the trunk sliced into cookies and has been using them as stepping stones in his garden for years. He realized there may be nice grain in there so he asked me if I might be able to make a serving board or two...

Well Mark Wilson and Bob Collins have given me the bug to make a few pens. I started off with 4 slimline pen and pencil kits. The first one on the left is juniper and the other 3 are olive wood. These are just some scraps I brought home from Arizona. Along with these I made a few arbors for...

I made a beer knife over the summer for the beer swap that went to my buddy Duckmilk. When I was deciding what to give/make my son for Christmas, he mentioned he would like a small knife to keep in the saddlebag on his motorcycle. I really liked the way the Beer Knife came out and I had cut...
