The LOML wanted a couple of small tables to replace plastic ones in our screen room. Made these without any real plan using old wormy white oak. Water based golden oak stain and poly finish.

Here are some photos of wood belt buckles I make. The first photo shows completed buckles, second photo shows the attachment of the buckles (I got them from Tandy leather), third photo are works in various stages of completion.

My wife Laura wanted a cabinet to fit behind the basement bar. Her requirements were that it had to be able to hold a microwave,and a coffee-pot and have some shelves. The shelf on the left sits on wooden cleats and is removable. I built a 3 step bottle shelf on the right. This was my first attempt at making a cabinet. I’m not proud of it but I did learn a lot. I used a couple of pieces of old walnut veneered plywood I found and edge banded the ply with walnut I thickness planed and ripped. Finish is Minwax dark walnut stain and wipe-on poly. I do apologize for the photos but basement fluorescent lights and my camera don’t seem to agree. Thanks for looking.

My wife and two of her sisters like to make homemade bread and have been asking for bread boards. Here are my first results. They were made with ambrosia maple, walnut and red oak. Finish is mineral oil.

More samples of things my wife and I make, Stylized bird is from a cedar log.

This is a small sample of the Carpenter’s Crosses I have made. They are 2-3” long and have an eyelet to rin a leather thong through.

I carved these before I got the kerosene heater and the shop was too cold to work in.
