Finally done and delivered! The though just hit me as I was delivering these two desks, and that is I wish everyone of my clients would order two pieces of the exact same furniture from my. The first desk I built took a heck of a lot longer than the second one. I built the second desk in half...

This is by far the most unique burl I have ever come across. It is a black oak burl and when I cut into it the burl was white meat with black black bird's eye. This was about 24" in diameter and weighed 140 lbs. Sold it to a guy in New York. Still impressed by this one. HE has no lack in...

This was a project that was an experiment that sort of went wrong. I tried for the first time to take a scrolled inlay pattern, then fill it in with polymer clay and bake according to the instructions. At first I was very pleased with the results, then I looked closely. Yikes! The lid now has a...

Here is a tongue drum I finished not too long ago. It is made of Oak and Purpleheart. Fantastic tone from this. I have it tuned to a Bb pentatonic scale. It took me quite a bit of research to find out how to calculate the relative length of the tongues and how to adjust the tuning for them. I...

This pattern is from "Advanced Scroll Saw Clocks" by John A. Nelson (1998). I made the first one from red oak plywood as practice (last pic). This final version is cut fro red acrylic with a 1" thick purple heart base. It measures 14" wide, 8" deep and 20" high. I used 4 clear acrylic legs...

This project brought many pieces to the workbench. Every time I picked it up or started to mess with it, more and more pieces would fall off. Through many biscuts, dowels, and gluing, the final product came out pretty nice for the customer. I used the polyshades finish of which I was not all...

It'll have to be in a museum. I just felt like making something really old-fashioned. But there was another thought too: whenever I go into antique shops, they have a display cabinet with a sign that says, "Not for Sale". By my reasoning, that means they're asked for these quite a lot. Most of...

I have had a black Oak pin burl in my yard for months and I just didn't think there was anything that would turn my eye… boy was I wrong. It yielded about 200 bf of this beautiful stuff. I have Guitar billets, Platter blanks, bowl blanks, duck tube call banks and lots of other blanks out of...

I built these tables to match a set of chairs I previously posted. They are made from western red cedar and constructed entirely with mortise and tenon joinery. For these pieces I only had a mixture of light and dark pieces so dimensioned it in a way that I could use dark pieces for the border...

Repro of rare Simon Willard 8 day weight driven banjo clock. Solid mahogany with book-matched walnut veneer. Note the unique ghostly figure in the veneer! I did not plan on that but look cool. Face was printed in MS Word and antiqued to look 200+ years old. Movement is an authentic Willard...

Well this project is a blast from the past. I built this for wife when we were expecting our first son about ten years ago. it is constructed with thin strips of wood stapled and glued with epoxy onto a form. The accents, rails, transom and rockers are all out of mahogany. The plans were from a...

These boxes are made out of African Blackwood and the inlay out of Blackwood. These Blackwood first cuts that I used for the lids were thrown out as scrap by one of the big furniture manufacturers. An unusual growth on the logs give it this unique grain but I had to hold it together with epoxy...

Well, i made this desk last year, it took me about a quarter of the school year to design it and the rest of the school year to complete it (up until the day of the competition). I ended up entering it in the technology expo and Utah Valley University and took first place in my category and...

This is the bed I made out of 1-1/4" walnut with Carpathean Elm Burl Veneer. I took some of the ideas from other antiques we have in our home. The crosses are from a bed that my wife's grandfather threw away in 1920. We found it in the mid 70's above a chicken house where it had been for 55...
