I received some veneer samples recently, and among a lot of pretty sheets was this one white tulipwood. I'm 90% sure that dye has been used here but it looks so natural and the white-on-white figuring has transitions that resemble a light bronze metal. I couldn't be happier with the finished...

I had a idea to make or should I say turn a poppy as it is that time of the year so I dug out some tulip wood and beech I had laying around. I know it is a copy of The Royal British Legion poppy, Now it is finished I will take it to a local branch and give it to them to do as they like with it...

For the last couple of years I've made the prizes for the raffle that is held at our annual banquet for the Mason Dixon Holiday dinner. I made 6 pens that will be in the raffle and Jack Dalton made a Candle Box out of Sapele wood. Jack posted a blog here. The pens are made from Mango that I...

There are, as at January 9th 2012, 774 projects labelled with 'cutting board' on Lumberjocks. I thought I ought to see what the attraction is, so 2012 saw me in the 'shop knocking some out. For me, the joy of seeing the pattern come to life when I slapped on the mineral oil (Liquid Paraffin in...

Older project pics - small bowls and cups the grey looking wood o one small cup came from a huge oak in my yard. When I was splitting logs I noticed these dark blue areas of the wood, streaks and patches of blue. I saved some and turned it and when polished it looks quite grey and lost most...

This is a box I just completed for my Grandma. It's nothing fancy or innovative. I wanted to keep it clean and simple because I know that is what she likes most, so I took inspiration from Andy's designer boxes because they are just that. My Grandma and I are 3,000 miles apart and as you can...

My daughter wanted a couple of pens to give to her Summer work term coworkers as a token of appreciation so I got really ambitious (or really crazy) and went into production and turned twenty of them. When you get into the swing of things they can really zip along. :) The woods I used are...

So I normally only post actual projects, but I really got a kick out of the fact that I didn't screw this up. I got a hold of a tulipwood log, cut it in half, then jointed the exposed side. Took that flat side against my resaw fence and got 4 nice 4/4 pieces about 38" long and 6-7" wide...

As I was waiting for the glue to dry on my next project, I went over to my scrap pile and found a piece of tulipwood (1-1/2×1-1/2×6"). I Drilled a 3/4 Dia hole about 5" deep. Then cut two curved sides on the bandsaw, then taped the cut pieces back to the tulipwood block and cut the two opposite...

I finally have got round to cleaning up and re-illuminating the magic lantern that I rescued from being set to a skip some 40 years ago (Pic 3). I previously had adapted an Edison Screw bulb base to take a quartz iodine projector lamp to fit in the socket inside the lantern, but had not done...
