    Finished Coffee Table...5 years in the making.

    I finally finished my coffee table today. I started building it over 5 years ago...and stole the concept from an Ikea coffee table. It took me so long, because once I built the panels and the tops I didn't want to continue because I was afraid I would mess it up. Well, the past 6 months I've...

    So, after ten years of woodworking...

    ...I turned my first pens. I have no idea why I waited this long. :dontknow: I did 4 slims and 2 .50 cals. Awosome time. I had to grind a spade bit down to a 7mm (forgot to get one...) and my pen mandrel was the wrong size (1/4" not 7mm). Oh well. Still had fun. Thanks for looking!

    First Pen and First Turning in 20+ Years

    Well as the shop progress along I got a little anxious and decided to try a pen turning. So after 20+ years away from a lathe, I turned my first pen :eusa_danc. That first turning taught me a lot that I had forgotten. I had to repair a gouge, finesse the skew and try not to trip over my shop...

    It's been about 3 years since...

    I last turned a pen. Made a large lot of them for my cousins wedding and just got burnt out on pen making. Fast forward 3 years and a friend requests that I make her some to give as gifts for Christmas. I guess it's like riding a bike, you don't ever forget how. But you do get a lot slower, it...

    Two Years I've Been Watching This Burl....

    I noticed this small burl in my back yard two tears ago. I have been watching it grow larger every day since I first noticed it. I am thinking it is about ready for the lathe...... Would you cut it now, or let it mature more?

    6 Years without these was crazy.

    How have I done without these log tables for so long? These are gonna make a world of difference. Should help in production a good bit. EZ to load and just a tad higher than the mill. Works GREAT!!!

    Last bowl from last years oak burl

    Here is the last bowl I got out of last years oak burl. It was what was left from the large set I cored and finished last year. The burl in the bottom is in the shape of a double bit ax. It is 15" in dia. but rather shallow since it was just what was left from the blank after I cored the set...

    Finshed Shaker Table after 2 years

    When I first got into woodworking two years ago I took a class from John (Woodguy 1975). This was the first thing I ever did and I finally completed it. I used General Finshes Seal-A-Cell Clear and Arm-R-Seal Oil & Ureathane Topcoat in Satin. I put on four coats of topcoat and was wondering if...
