A recent commission to create a new conductor's podium for a local school came into my email box this Spring. The school colors are red and yellow, so we came up with the color scheme using bloodwood and yellow heart. The legs also have a touch of purple heart to transition between the other...

This is a podium I made for my wife. She is an elementary school teacher and asked me to make her one. its made of red oak and has since been finished since the picture.

Here's an interesting project. This is a pulpit (podium) for iPad. It's made of reclaimed American Chestnut barn wood, steel, aluminum, and calf skin leather. The chestnut came from a barn we call our "Chestnut Barn" that we tore down in Pennsylvania. The patina on the surface was so nice and...

I built this podium for our new church.

This is my first commissioned piece. It is a podium constructed from 3/4 tap-hole maple. For those that are not familiar with the wood, it is usually a by-product from the saw-mill. Maple logs that have tap-holes, from tapping for sap in the production of maple syrup, are usually chipped into...

I built several projects for the middle school I taught at before retiring. The trophy case was constructed to match an existing commercial one and I built several podiums for classroom use as well. The podiums have wheels in the base so that they tip back for rolling where needed. The trophy...

I was asked by an employee of our local nursing home where I volunteer to design and build a pulpit to replace one that had been built many years earlier out of paneling and plywood. They wanted something of a similar size and function to the old one so I based my design roughly on its...

Our pastor requested 2 podiums for the new church to be used in the vestibule and the family center. Instead I made this one, with casters and brakes on it so it could be used in the 2 places where he wanted one. I made this one in walnut to match the pews inside the church. The first time it...

I started builing this podium back in August, and really took my time with it. I was asked to build it by the Edmonton Police Association (EPA), essentially the police union. The president of the association wanted a nice podium for meetings and media releases. After shopping around on line for...

Here is the finished product. If you look carefully you will see a small slot on the side of the front frame where we can slide different placards in and out depending on who is using the podium. If I was going to do another one, I would make it 3" taller and 6" less deep, but overall it works...

I am also submitting this table into the "Knot like no other" contest. The original design is for a table I was building for a retiring Officer (our Commanding Officer). But I wanted to incorporate both contest theme's in its final build. So what inspired me, well one the veneer did but I...

This was a commission by Class 36 of Palomar College Paramedic Program. My brother just completed this course, and while during, he came to me asking to build a new podium for the classroom. I guess they had an old music stand or something in use that was horrible looking. It is frame and panel...

I have been watching Lumberjocks for about three weeks now and I am amazed at what you can do with wood. I am new to woodworking but I thought this podium turned out very nice. This is my second project. This is a project I made with a friend. I lost touch with him after High School. I moved to...

Here is another project that I recently completed for the golf course I work at (and is currently my best client for my woodworking business). Like the a few of the other things I've built for them, it's made from teak and cypress. Since we are in South Florida and have many cypress trees on the...

This past summer (2014), my church had a fire that wiped out everything. The acrylic podium that we had is a melted heap of plastic. Now in our new digs, we were in need of a new podium. So I volunteered to build one. Since I work mainly in pine, that is what I used. We have people of...

My sister "commissioned" this project for the minister at her church. Her email started out "...you don't have to do this if you don't want to, but…", so as you can guess… Made from 3/4" birch plywood and walnut. It stands about 42" at the rear. The top is 20" x 30". The two shelves are...
