UMMM…was the first word I thought of when someone told me to make this!...though not hard, just a little, why is that NEEDED!...This is a valet stand, used for undressing and/or dressing. Curved was the word that was used to discribe what they wanted! I think it has some curves!...I built it out of some pine and used three different cutting patterns. Since it was being painted, I just screwed it together, and used filler to give it an autobody finish. My friend, Matt, painted it with a spray gun, mixing the paint and finish to give it a really smooth finish…But beware when mixing stuff bc it can create hazardest issues. I am still not sure what all he did to get it to blend. Matt paints cars, houses, and himself sometimes so he knows something about mixing stuff and not killing himself, though I am not to sure how many brain cells he really has left!

Later PLAYERS!

I love crown, it is juch a joy to put up! Crown is my friend!...This is 5.25 popular crown molding, and to think that you get to put up a hardwood, even if it is popular, and it gets painted! Painted hardwood crown should be a sin! but everone does it!...In case if you are reading this and have never put up hardwood crown, there is no flex in it!...I did this work about three years ago, those beatiful doors you see were done by the old man, my father! On all the jobs that I have worked on the young guys, like myself, get to fight with the over head work.

This is a table that I built for a customer. It is made out of soft maple and is waiting to be finished. The legs were constructed using the bent laminate method. The laminates were cut on the table saw using a re-saw jig. I can not take credit for the design idea, which came from Wood Smith. However, I did make a few modifications to their design. It has four legs, all of which are glued together. The top is a glue up and is attached with figure eights. The dimensions are; 26” tall, and 16.5 ” wide.

This is a coffee table that I built this past winter.
