Return to DiscussionsHere are a couple of my latest commissions.
The first is a coffee table constructed using vintage wooden wine boxes. Each had to be disassembled carefully and trimmed. I adjusted the different thicknesses of each plank to be within .125 of each other. A natural clear finish was used to highlight all of the different logos.
The second is a console cabinet using book-matched rosewood veneer, inside and out. Again only a clear gloss finish.
Always fun to be in the shop working, bare!
If you are going to work with old nail-ridden wood, pick up a stud finder at the box store. Great for locating any metal that is hidden in wood- even an odd bullet! And yes the saw will send it flying toward you. I have eliminated that by changing to a Saw Stop.
Just uploaded a pic of my latest woody project - pantry shelves requested by my sweetie (and very much needed in our naked little home).
It's not nearly the chore when it's done without fabric on! Repurposed wood from an old futon frame which had been bouncing around Mom's house for a couple of decades and packing crate wood from my old winery. Between that and some thin plywood and screws & nails, gotterdun in just under $50.
The monkey was only hanging around for moral support and critiques that weren't very helpful. Picture #2 needs some Cpt.Morgan, no?
