Safety is job one.

Be it human or canine, shop safety is always important! Unless your a Guinea pig.....I'd love to feed those things through the planer....

Stuffed Bear

Cut this one out today since it wasnt my weekend. Almost done except for the glue-up and the finish. This was made for one of Lilly's teachers who has a niece on the the way. The woods in this one are Paduk, Cedar, Maple, and walnut.


The nose, eyes, and letters in the block were inlayed.

Cars Themed Intarsia Piece, Finished

Finished the cars themed piece.  I could have probably added more, but for an infants room, I didnt want it to be cluttered.

All in all took me about 6 hours of work time total.  Mostly made from poplar with an oak frame and birch matting, Finished in 5 coats of laquer.

I like how this one turned out and it got the stamp of approval from Lilly :)
