I work with my cousin making hardwood flooring and parts for cabinet makers in our area. Living in the heart of Amish country there is over 60 cabinet shops in this county alone. By nature I am a handy man. I can attempt to do carpentry, electrical, and plumbing. Dumb laborer is my trade and stock. I enjoy the patients it takes to create a beautiful piece of woodwork. Everything I have learned about wood has been through the school of hard knocks. From every mistake I learn at least how NOT to do something. The only thing I do know for sure is GOOD tools do not cost that much in the long run, its the cheap tools that cost you much more.

After spilling coffee on this I desided it was time to attempt to refinish this piece of furniture.It was brought to this house in a covered wagon around 1920. It’s a shame it can’t talk because it has seen a lot of history.Now I cant...

Well the day started with a request from my much better half for a book shelf for our bedroom. She said there was no hurry and just something to put the National Geographics in. Or as my son used to call them National Pornographics. I was thi...

God Bless

You sure got that right Tom. The gallery is making me salivate. I hope you all take pitty on me. My dreams of woodworking are vast, but my talents tiny. All I can say is its a good think I heat my home with a wood stove. I think I heated the last month on mistakes. LOL
