Gettin on
Some Wood Shop Glamour Shots!

Not much to say really, all of my writing time is in the pages of the book but I wanted to share some shots from this past week. Im halfway through projects 4 and 5 which says to me: One more to go...this is a good thing. Im enjoying the process but can honestly say Im looking forward to moving onto other non-book related projects. I have two or three custom pieces lined up for very patient clients who have been incredibly understanding of where Im at with this and why I cant begin anything new until mid-March. As Im approaching the end of this journey Im constantly reminded of, and find myself stepping back and seeing again the true beauty of wood and wood working. Enjoy!
With my old Rip saw, still cutting like a dream since Mark at Techno gave it the over-haul; Im re-sawing some purple heart for a couple of drawer fronts for a small wall cabinet...
Installing a pair of Brusso knife hinges on a Cherry post and panel style cabinet...this is the rather unassuming one that has the interior labyrinth of 128 joints!
Walnut cross-cut...again I cant help but to stop and think wow, this is incredibly nice wood...nice saw too! Another Techno rehabilitation.

And finally the maple carcass to become a small tool box...the first project chapter of six. Stay tuned...
