My next project is going to be some night stands. As of right now I plan on building the whole thing out of worm wood thanks to Jack (saw4you) for offering to bring it to me , however I have also considered using a combination of woods. I know I at least want the top of the night stands to be...

The power company has been rolling through my area and over zealously butchering any tree within 15' of a power line. They skipped one house in my neighborhood, but I'm guessing the owners were home.
A red maple tree in front of an abandoned house had the street side of the tree just...

This bowl was made by cutting a sliding dovetail in two flat pieces of wood, gluing them together and cutting them with a scroll saw. There are eight segmented stacks that were cut, glued and sanded.
