Hi all I had some small pieces of timber left over from my last project and thought I would make myself a marking knife. I used a Hock blade with Ebony and Red Gum for the scales. It is finished with Scandinavian oil and wax and feels great in the hand. This blade is SHARP.

Hi all, Here is a little three legged milking stool which is a gift for a friend for Christmas. The seat is Redgum and the legs are Mountain Ash. I used a Howards finish which brought up the Redgum beautifully. Although it doesn't look it in the pics the legs are set out at 8 degrees. Kind...

I did a simpler version of this mirror a few years back, it was time to make more! These are based upon big box store 12" mirror tiles, a true bargain compared to buying a mirror of any size from a glass supplier. The construction is a simple mitered and splined frame bordered with walnut trim...

Okay teeeeechnically I didn't make this project, my wife did. I think that skirts by the rules though. Veritas have two wooden spokeshave kits, this is the small. Overall would rate the project 3.5/5 - some of the wording was pretty so so, and a few things were the wrong size (had to go up a...

To match in with the bed I made last year (The Shogun), I needed to make some bedside lamps. Not too bad for all scraps - the redgum is offcuts from my redgum slab coffee table, and the tassie oak is from another bed I recently built for friends. Build video, though its not overly instructive...

G'day guys. I have just spent the last week and half having a bit of fun with creativity. I made myself a wooden hand plane and shaped it like a sports car, racing stripes and all. I love it. It works well and looks cool :D Made from River Redgum, pink coloured Myrtle and a lighter salmon...
