This is currently a work in progress. Please bear with me while I update this to include my past projects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Listed below are the woodworking projects that I’ve done. The list may not be complete or have detailed descriptions, as I did not keep records of what was done early on when I made them. However, if possible, I’ve provided pictures of them. For convenience, my newest completed projects will always be on top.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cedar Planters<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Who couldn’t use a few cedar planters to add some outside decor? Add flowers, planets, or anything else in them to step up your entryway or deck. Yes, I do make and sell these, so if interested, just use the contact <\/a>page to put in an inquiry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ink Pens<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Nothing more elegant than hand-turned wood or acrylic ink pens on a lathe. You can make them glass shiny, and they come complete with refillable ink cartridges. You can see how I make these in my Pen Making<\/a> article. You can also purchase these or others, just use the contact<\/a> page to put in an inquiry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Reclaimed Wood Wall Mount for Baskets<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

This was a project I did for my daughter’s room. She had tons of stuffed animals and needed a place to store them. I used some reclaimed 2×4 material from a previous home renovation we did to build this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Small Kitchen Cabinet<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

During our early years in our house, we needed a small kitchen cabinet that matched the existing cabinets in our kitchen. This cabinet was going to be between our refrigerator and stove. The purpose was to house stove-related items, such as oils and sprays, and be our little “to-do” center. All the hardware, with the exception of the drawer slides, matched the existing set so that no one would realize it was a new addition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is a very plain cabinet with one twist – the top. The top is a maple top designed in a cutting board layout. I did this in the event we ever decided to dispose of the cabinet, I could keep the top, trim it up, and plane it down to remove the finish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Maple Countertop<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

As I stated above, our little stove\/to-do center had a Maple countertop. This top was designed so that it could essentially be used as an edge-grain cutting board if desired. While we never used it as that because of the finish, it could still be trimmed down on the sides and planed a little to remove it, bringing it back to a cutting board status.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Large Bookshelf with Doors<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

After we did a major home renovation, we ended up needing to create some furniture to fill one of the rooms. This is one piece of that furniture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is a very large bookshelf that had to be assembled and finished in my shop. It features two large bookshelf units with adjustable shelving and a pair of doors below them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Media Shelf for CDs, DVDs, and Books<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Again, this was another piece of furniture after our major home renovation. This is one piece of that furniture. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is a very large, shallow bookshelf. It features adjustable shelving and a pair of closing doors for each section. However, after we got it in place, we decided not to attach the clear doors and leave it open.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fireplace Mantel<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

The image on the top left is one of the first projects I made when we moved into our new house in 2002. Our fireplace lacked a mantel, and we both thought it could really use one. The 3 subsequent images are of a new replacement faux beam mantel<\/a> I made in 2024.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
