I built this office set for the inglenook in our 100 year old farmhouse. The pieces are stained dark to match the trim in the house. I used pine lumber from home depot for its rustic appeal. There are a lot of imperfections in the wood and I didn't bother to fill or repair them. The main...

A local tool collector of note had an 18th century lathe set up in a custom trailer, a nice mobile shop of tools from the mid 1700's. His "have lathe will travel" exhibit. Unfortunately I don't have a picture of the lathe. We drove it to a local chapter meeting of clock and watch collectors...

These are 6 piece bird feeders that took about 30 minutes to make. Got the idea out of a scroll saw magazine. There is a peanut butter recipe that you can use also to feed the squirrels with. I think the apple is easier and less expensive though.

Last weekend I did my second halloween decoration of the year and made this neat little skeleton from free pallet wood. I had some soft 3/4 pieces of old pallet wood lying around, after gluing on a pattern I made up on photoshop I cut all the pieces out on the scroll saw. Did some fine detailing...

Pair of bookshelves for a customer.

I used a design, not my own. This is maple plywood and cherry trim. I like the two tone look.

I made this lamp to replace the one we had on our side table in our dining room. It is made out of 3/4" solid oak and 3/4" solid purple heart. The shape is of an octagon. I made eight oak moldings 3/4" square x 9" long and gave one of the corners a 1/4 round cut on both sides so it was...

My version of a dragonfly made from heart pine and hardware cloth. The pattern on his wings is from yellow and red telephone wire i salvaged and wove into the wire cloth. It's approx 24" long and 38" wingspan. PS: The wind machine in the background is one of many i've made from crazy found...
