The Mara table was designed based on rough idea a client had that we were able to refine and make a reality. It took two months of planning to determine plan of construction. The inverted pyramid is made from solid Walnut that was cut from book matched slabs. After the wood was milled the final...

This is one of those experiments that just happen every now and then. I'm a big fan of the Klausian (Kiefer) boxes and some time back I experimented with creating a surface that emulated his boxes of 1000 saw cuts. Anyway, I recently found this experiment while dusting the shop and it was a...

A project from my high school days incorporating multiple techniques. The design was suggested by my German teacher but I replaced the traditional Christmas ornamentation with my personal interests. Elements were scrollsawn, carved, and turned. The edge banding was handmade and there are...

Building a pyramid box is not as simple as it looks! I simply thought that 45 degree angles would get me there. Boy, was I wrong. So this became a real challenge. Of course I used the angle grinder on the lid of the box. This lid slides open. The legs are bubinga and the lid is cherry. I wood...

I wanted a piece to build and learn on as I went. I wanted to break out of my norm of safe and clean lined. I chose to use Alder and use some of the techniques for creating a worn or reclaimed look to the wood. Using my angle grinder and wire cup, I went with the grain to create that...

I woke up this morning with every intention of building a bandsawn box, unfortunately my bandsaw is just a ten inch with a 1/5 HP motor and was not gutsy enough for the walnut and paduak. Instead I used the same idea but did it all on my compound miter saw! It was fun and I like the contrast...

I needed a tall trellis for my cucumbers and pole beans to grow on. Since I made my garden beds either 4'x4' or 4'x8', I decided to build a self-supporting trellis in the shape of a pyramid that is 4'x4' at the base. My finished trellis' are 7'6" tall and have the added bonus of a place to...

My son had a nice idea to make his valentine's day box at school in the shape of a 4 sided pyramid. After posting a question on LJS about how to figure these angles I was directed to an awesome link that helped us (my 8 year old son Bryce) figure it out pretty easily. I've been trying to get...

Hi Folks - I wanted to build an Egyptian inspired treasure chest for my daughter (my dad is Egyptian and I want her to learn about that part of her heritage). After struggling to come up with a satisfactory design for a more standard chest style treasure box, I decided to make it in the shape...

One of the items that my wife and I use each year at Yule is a candle powered Pyramid (also sometimes referred to as a Whirligig). These are more commonly seen in Europe, and come in a wide variety of themes and sizes. I built this one about 30 years ago, based on an article in Family Circle...
