nice work
What did you do in your shop today?
- Thread starter woodtickgreg
- Start date
Drilled dowel pins and glued up the top for the hall table I want to build. This is some of that sweet ambrosia maple Gary sold me ( @gvwp ). The legs will also be ambrosia. The skirt under the top and the lower shelf will be made from a nice piece of poplar with some figure to it that I found at our local hardwood store. I figure I should have it done by around 4th of July.
Can’t wait to see it finished!!! Chuck
Patience, young grasshopper. Brilliance takes time. And in my case, just about any wood working project takes lots of time.
Finally got a little time to clean the shop. Got a vacuum emptied and the floor cleaner.
An early Spring cleaning! What project will you be starting next? Chuck
Chuck, finishing a vase that has been sitting here for two years. Real close now. Then about done with a demo piece I did for the club last year. Then have wedding goblets to finish and another light house before a June.
I started this as a vase years ago. Think it wants to be that lighthouse.
Looks intriguing! I don’t recall seeing one of your completed lighthouses from the past. Did you post here? Chuck
Looks good Bill. Some day i'd like to see a bit more of that tool caddy--looks very functional and like you may have some stuff on the back side?? Thanks!
Think I did post it here but here is a picture. The light cycles on and off slowly.
Only recently acquired the tool caddy. A club member is getting rid of many of his tools and is going fishing. Not got around to organizing it yet. Going to make some changes.
But Bill, having something like that, you need to keep the floor clean. It certainly wouldn’t work in my shop. ..........Jerry (in Tucson)
I should have taken a before and after picture.
Thanks Bill. Nice. That looks like some sort of production piece--HF or Northern maybe. Good base to start from, and if i'd seen something like it i'd not have thought about putting a tool rack on it!!
Lots of storage in a small footprint....and mobile!
Should be fairly easy to make if one was so inclined.
Starting to look good!!!
Layed out some blanks on a slab I picked up this morn, will cut them out next time.
Started cutting some fresh walnut and using it to play with some new shapes.
Lot of the blanks will have some sap wood, so looking for different ways to show/balance it.
