Thanks, Dad, for letting me break the toaster at 3 years old and then letting me fix it on my own. Thanks for letting me be your side-kick for all the projects through our time together. Most of all, thank you for encouraging me to do it myself, learn from my mistakes and to have the courage to try something new.

Master Bedroom Cherry Casings

Feb 17, 2009

This is my master bedroom, which started out with a complete demo of the exterior walls (inside). After hours of weekend labor, the windows are done. All from American Cherry with an oil finish.

Re: UPDATE: The Foundations of Better Woodworking by Jeff Miller

Ahh - a book every woodworker's library should contain. This would be a welcome addition to mine!

Re: UPDATE: Sharpening & Tuning Hand Planes and Chisels by Hendrik Varju

This is probably my weakest skill-set...I could benefit from some instruction!

Re: UPDATE: Book Giveaway: Modern Cabinet Work by Percy A. Wells and John Hooper

Perspective is an important element of any woodworking project. Often, it suits me to gain perspective on a new project (or an unforseen challenge of an on-going project), by exploring multiple views and techniques of other woodworkers and problem-solvers. From this information, I usually morph two or three ideas into the best solution for my project, my knowledge and the tools at my disposal. The end result is pleasing and inspires me to continue to learn. My library is yearning for this book!

An inspirational saying: You might have to learn by doing in order to maximize the talents you have. Solutions come during the process, not the plan.

Safe & happy woodworking!
Cindy
