I made this sigh for a guy who wanted to hang it up out side of his camping trailer. I made it from an off cut of poplar with the bark still attached. Sorry I didn't get a pic of the back. It was about 24" long and 8" - 10" high and 2" thick. I did all the letters free hand with a router...

The pool side deck was in need of a rebuild. This was my first deck I've tackled on my own. I wanted to do something different from the traditional straight boards on the top and opted for this pattern. Overall it turned out great! Note: The right hand post was left taller to accommodate a...

I came across a large pile of reclaimed truck flooring wood (Asian Woods) and did not know what to do with it. One day I decided to build a flower planter. When I first started I wanted it to be something plain and simple. My friend and neighbor saw what I was doing and offered his help in...

Texas A&M vs Texas Doesn't get any better that this!! Matching team bags Created a storage compartment for storing bags on the back side.

This was a custom entry door that I constructed for our new landscape wall into a courtyard. Made from solid Sapele lumber, self closing with a biometric lock. The upper image shows a rendering of the original design I came up with. First time gate building for me with lots of fun challenges...

Once upon a time… You know how it goes. The other day I was out on the deck looking at a spiral stairs I had built about twenty years ago. I use them every day and wonder how I would connect the two decks without them. Yes, I have built numerous outdoor projects, but this is the one for...

My parents burn a lot of wood in the winter and their current wood box is probably about 20 years old and falling apart. So enter the wood box 2.0. The dimensions are 4ft wide x 4ft tall x 2ft deep, so it should hold about 1/4 cord of fire wood. I made it out of sassafras due to its rot...

image image image image image ---------------------------------------- This is an older project, late summer and fall of 2005. The deck is 68 feet long plus steps off both ends. The center of the deck area is 16 feet deep by 16 across. The next 8 feet in each direction tapers back toward the...

I don't know if a bird will be interested in staying in this cat shaped birdhouse or not, but its bright enough they should be able to spot it from way up high! I am looking forward to hanging this in the spring and seeing how the birds react to it. Even if it doesn't get used at least it will...

Hello Fellow Lumberjocks, It is prime flower planting season in my neck of the woods so I wanted to show you one of my new flower planters. This is Dominick and he is hauling a load of flowers to the market. Dominick is approximately 25" tall and 46" long from the tip of his nose to the back...

This potting bench is a Mother's Day gift for my wife.

I made this swing and arbor for my sister.

So Steve over at http://www.WoodworkingForMereMortals.com posted a video here a week ago on how to make wind chimes. This is my first shot at my own. I am thinking about changing the striker but I will see if I need to after a few windy days. I made them from 1" EMT Steel conduit (about $7)...

So I am not the greatest Photographer, funny it came out nice on my phone and it is so comfortable sitting to me. For the good and bad we wanted a nice bench for the fire ring. Thanks again to Steve Ramsey utube. But I made this 5 ft. and added more cross supports. The seat is 16 inch...

I had a tree in my front yard that was dead and needed to be cut down. To avoid removing the stump I decided to cover it with a wishing well. I found the design I wanted. I had order the prints from Woodcraft U-Bild no 371, which were terribly outdated and offered no new insite to construction...
