I bought this homemade mahogany table for $20.00  The benches are from a trestle
table I made years ago.
The same mahogany table after it's transformation.
Here's a combined picture of both tables.
I built this bookcase for my daughter Krystal.
Here's one of my latest projects. It's an sort of an armoire for my son. It's
made of mostly oak scraps with 3/4 oak plywood for the carcass.
Bookcases.jpg (257912 bytes)
Here are two bookcases.  You can tell by the books on top of the units I need to build
some more.
Turnings.jpg (497363 bytes)
Here are all the turnings I've done to date.  Most of these were under the close tutelage of my father.  I
did all the prep and the actual turning but my Dad guided me thought the steps.  The lamp base is

spalted Pecan
.  The spoon and spatula are Sycamore.  The candle stand is Black Cherry.  The
gavel is from a
Cherry tree I helped my father cut off his place.  The Indian Talking Stick is from a
Peach tree my father cut from my grandfather's place.  Email me if you want to find out what an Indian
Talking Stick is or any other question about my woodwork.

This is a spatula I made for my wife out
of the same sycamore window sash.
I made this sword out of an old sycamore
window sash I found in my barn.
These are the two large base cabinets and the range hood cabinet I built from hard maple.  
I completely redid my hideous blue bathroom with disgusting light blue 1970's linoleum tile.  
I moved the toilet from right in front of the doorway. It was literally 4 feet inside the
bathroom right in line with the door.  I also replaced the vanity and built a Shaker shelf to
hold towels.
