This is a little project that was to take a couple of hours to do and turned out to be several. The scroll saw work was a lot more time consuming than I thought but the project needed more of a flair so the design cut into the napkin holder. The wood is black walnut. A dado and a rabbit cut were...

UGLY! unfortunately made of second hand particle board for the sides (explaining the paint/paper mache); made of oak and whitewood board for the drawers. everything was pretty much second hand now that i think about it. if you appreciate woodworking you may find this quite distasteful.. ABOMINABLE!

I won last month's bring back at my woodturning club, which means I have to provide the bring back this month. I pretty much turn pens or pen related items but wanted something a little different this time. I recalled seeing plans for a Salt & Pepper set in one of my old Deltagrams. So here is...

This is a salt cellar made of boxelder and spalted maple. I have made several of these items and this one by far is my favorite. All of my salt cellars use a stainless steel screw to secure the lid and and smooth rounded bottom to insure that no salt grains get trapped in the corners. Enjoy!

About twelve years ago my daughter lived with and served developmentally disabled adults for eighteen months in a L'Arche community in Ireland. She still serves with the same passion here stateside.

Realized I never posted this little item to my portfolio. A salt and pepper thing from bubinga (a Bub-thing-ga!) It's been in service for years now, and I'm realizing I never put any finish on it. I might empty it out, clean it up, and dump it in some mineral oil just to make things official...

These are Mahogany and Maple 6 inch Salt and Pepper Grinders. I wanted to try to make my own blanks for the grinders so this is what I ended up with. I think they came out very well. In fact the best ones I have made yet! I am looking forward to building some more of my own blanks! I finished...

I bought this bowl blank at Woodcraft. It's Honduras Rosewood. When i bought it I didn't know how hard the wood is, I learned though. It's interesting what you can find inside a piece of wood. I found 2 knot holes, since I finished turning they have decided to crack. I just put a couple of coats...
