So I am in a place where there is a lot of my work out there and a lot of it I have lost track of. Building and creating is something I really enjoy and if there is a opportunity I go for it. Here is a small sample of my work. The reason for the P.J project is that I really wanted to challenge my self and pull out of the same old work. Below is a small entertainment center that I built out of oak.
This next project was both my design and build. Wanted a dresser that would have a big enough bottom drawer for blankets and such. The
dimensions worked good. Decided to do solid maple stained to look cherry, with a mission design. This worked good have some things that I would do differently but has been a good solid design and held up to all the moves.
This desk is also my design wanted something that I could have a computer and enough room out front to do paper work and drafts. Most of my work is done on CAD now the room out front is still good and again has worked out as a real solid design and built like a tank. Solid oak and stained the famous rich mission color.
The next display case I built for a
former employer. The glass was done by some one else and donated and needed a way to show it off. This was a fun project the
challenge before me is that all I had is a verbal "I would like to have something in oak with curves". I came up with this on paper and they liked it. The rest is history. Most of the project is solid oak "car siding". The hardest part of the project was the lighting my original idea did not work then revamped with a LED light track right under the glass that worked really good.
The last project is a solid cherry clock that I built. This was built from plans and yet had some interesting challenges. My first clock and the cherry has done a beautiful job of showing off the best part as it gets older the cherry
continues to come up with new
deeper character. This is a real charm for any house.
