#1 | | Candle stand-Claro graft walnut and big leaf maple burl Name: Kyle Edwards City: Iron Station State: NC County: Lincoln Join Date: Jul 2005 Age: 43  07-16-2006, 02:48 PM
Finally finished a candle stand so I can put my glasses down beside the bed instead of accrss the room at night. The wood is Claro graft (english and Claro Walnut(California) and the top is Big leaf maple burl (Oregon)
I did an inlay (maple burl)around the joints of the feet and put "boots" on the feet as well.
Well back to the boat and chest.

Nice table Kyle  .
I've been trying to stay out of my wood shop. There's a snake in there. I only got a glimps of it, before it headed behind the workbench, it's looked to be about 4' long. It's most likley just a black snake.
It's just too dang hot to be messing around with snakes at the moment. So he can have the shop for a while. Would be cool it he would finish cutting up the pieces for my daughters desk as long as he's in there.
I figure he'll get hungry and move on soon enough... There's not much to eat in there but sawdust anyways. | |

Way Cool, Kyle!!!!!
The foot design is awesome! (I believe that that top would nicely hold a couple of cold one's very well beside my burp chair!!!! )
The top sure has a terrific figure!!!

Kyle, that table looks too nice to set anything on it. I wouldn't want to obscure the view!

That's awesome Kyle. Did the BL maple burl give you a lot of grief with chipout?

not really. It turned pretty well on the shopsmith. I lowered the speed and tried not to hog out the wood and used a sharp gouge. | |
