My Favoite Project

Jewelry Armorie

Anniversary Present

This is by far my favorite piece. Made for my bride to celebrate our 25th anniversary. Designed to match the TV stand and bed. White Oak with oil.

Furniture

Jewelry Amoria

Originally, this loft bed had a desk underneath; it now resides in our house in the mountains. Ash with a poly finish.

Dresser

My brother-in-law and I collaborated on this project. His first! Came out nice. Poplar since we were going to paint.

Dresser

The dresser I made for my bride. The top with its concentric rings was interesting. Pine and Birch ended up being a nice combo! Finished with blonde shellac.

Cat Stand

My spouse would store the storage boxes in the hallway while she was putting out/away the latest holiday decorations. Jimmy took to sleeping on them. Now that they are all back in storage, I made a replacement place for him to sleep.

Shoe Shelves

A shoe case for my wife. ½" sheet stock edge banded with birch. Hard wax oil finish.

Narrow Case

A narrow case of White Oak. I made two of these for my office. Hard wax oil finish.

Quilt Stand

One of my parishes gave me this lovely quilt as a going-away gift…had to create a stand to show it off! Poplar with Poly finish.

Plant Stand

A 9-pot plant stand made of Red Cedar and finished with Poly. Has held up reasonably well in the weather.

Octagon Stand

I was stunned to see what they get for these commercially. Octagon stand has a 2X4 frame, skinned with Yellow Pine panels. Poly finish.

Coffee Table

This mission-inspired table I built for a friend. White Oak, with poly finish. Can't remember what color she asked me to stain it.

Special Project

Dog Standing Chair

My local shelter, where I was a transport volunteer, asked if I could create a feeding chair for a large dog that had to eat while standing on his back legs. This was my solution. Baltic Brish sheet stock.

A happy pup after his eveing meal.
