My 2 latest projects
« on: December 31, 2011, 02:22:11 pm »
Here are 2 of my latest projects.

The bowl is clear pine and black walnut.  It is 4 1/2 inches wide and 3 inches tall.  It was finished with shellac.




The box was made for a friend that wanted a box that looked like a piece of 2x4 lumber.  This box is 1 7/8 inches x 3 1/2 x 4 inches long and has been flocked in a wine color.  It was stained a light oak and then tung oiled.

Love the projects.  Is the box made from one piece of 2 x 4 or did you build the sides with miters?

Actually Karl I took a couple of 7/8 in thick pine and glued them together then cut the top and bottom off then cut o out the middle and the inner part of the box and then glued the top and bottom back in place so that the grain all looks like it was whole.
