Re: glider and ottoman

I love these 2 pieces. My grandfather made approx. 20 gliders 40 years ago out of wood he found being thrown out at the local dump (all hard wood)... this was northern Quebec. Unfortunately, with 11 children 36 grand-children and over 60 great grand-children, I wasn't lucky enough to end up with one for myself. Would you share your plan? I could never decide to purchase one from a store.... Non ever felt like the ones he had made....

Re: Making the King's Furniture

Indeed you should be crowned the King of Boulle marquetry in the 21rst century.
You are deserving of wearing the title and a gilded, jewelled crown... Absolument magnifique!!!!!!!! These 2 most beautiful tables are a reminder of the place that craftsmen and artisans had in our history.

Re: Douglas Fir 2x4s pulled from a dumpster, with left over Wenge from a friend's project

beautifuly done. This is truly a case of: less is more.

Re: bungalow entrance door

WOW!!!!!!
As I was examining the picture of the door, I was thinking to myself: this is what someone can create when they're not just "woodworkers", this is the work of a true artist...... Then as I scrolled down to the comments section and I read your words: a "hidden" poem to thank the tree..... A wood poet, indeed you are.
Your door is truly a piece of art. It beseeches to be looked at, to have fingers and hands feel its texture, its different planes and surfaces and to draw your nose just next to it to inhale it's essense.....

Re: reclaimed wood end table

Creatif et original. I like the colour contrast of the different wood species. Certainly not for my mother-in-law's living room, but fun and funky.

Re: coffee table poplar epoxy resin
