  1. Ebony Marking Knife

    Hello. This is a marking knife I just finished. Its made of ebony with an old jig saw blade and a brass ferrule. I made the blade 1 1/2" long and the handle is about 4 inches. The handle shape is based off of the common windsor chair leg design. Now I finally have a good marking knife.
  2. China Cabinet in quartersawn white oak

    Since this was to be a "Stickley" design, it seemed appropriate to make it of quartersawn white oak. We found a source, rented a truck, and made a day of it. Turned out I bought too much, so used the leftovers to make the accompanying server. One mistake: I was so keen on getting a great...
