  1. Wood gloat - Alabama spalted maple and cherry

    No posts lately as I was on my annual trek back to Alabama to visit family. Last year we took down a maple and I was worried that it would be a little too far gone by this summer to be useful. It's a little punky near the edges, and a little pit marked, but I like working with wood like this...

  2. Car bed

    Not going to say much since I put this one in my blog. Mostly plywood, primed and painted. The headboard is a bookshelf, the front bumper opens and makes a small toy box. The largest, in terms of physical size, project I've attempted to date.

    I was looking at bookshelves to build for my daughter's first apartment and came across this: Switchback bookcase and showed it to her. She loved it, so I told her when she moved out I'd make it. Well a few months later she's out and I reversed the design in Photoshop and Illustrator to make...

  5. Camp Table

    A folding camp table. One of my first "real" projects using more than screws and paint. Used spar varnish as it would be used outside and possibly rained on. Also my first breadboard ends. Given as a Christmas present.

  6. Wood Gloat!! (my first gloat!! woohoo!)

    I got all this Walnut lumber from a guy who owns a personal mill. The longest pieces laying down are 7' and it goes all the way down to 3'. The thick slabs on top are walnut as well. The boards standing in front of the stack are cherry - he threw those in for free!! The last picture is one...

  7. Magnetic Safebox

    As the grandfather of quite a few inquisitive grandkids and a responsible pistol owner, I've been searching for a kid-proof and yet instant access safebox for my gun. I've looked at all the biometric pistol safes, but didn't want to bother with batteries or complexity. I also wanted it to be...

    Just wanted to show off a couple of wood finds. The cherry I found growing not far from where I live. The bole or trunk diameter of the tree was about 30'', but only about 3 feet before splitting off into two main scaffolding limbs, which were about half that diameter each. The bole, crotch, and...

    Well, while cruising craigslist I came across an interesting post in materials. Apparently a guy was giving away some air dried pecan because he was moving out of that state.
