The last three end tables I made are for sale at a local consignment shop, I am proud of myself for putting myself out there, it's hard to show your work to other professionals

Oohh i love Golby they have really cool stuff, have you been out to Burl and Grain in Hillsborough? That place is cool, kinda far, but I like it.

Or Gilmore if you want some exotics

I did not glue that, that's cool i found it in an offcut pile, there is so much to learn about wood it's mind boggling

Finally finished up this tnd table, I'm not sure what the table top wood is, but sanded that down added the bowties for stability and then made the big legs for it, those are mortised into place.

I was going to make none out of Wenge, with hand cut mitered blind dovetails and waterfalled grain.

This is burnt white oak, I think this *turned* out nicely, it was weird taking a torch to a thing I just made. But I highly recommend people try this it comes out looking quite cool, just have a spray bottle handy :)

Pine burl, I like how it came out, the swirls and wall thickness. I picked up this burl from a scrap pile at my local wood supplier

I think a lot of people don't appreciate the work that goes into selecting boards. Some people will think Walnut is Walnut, but I've spent an hour looking at walnut boards looking for the best one.

my first cross cut sled had T-slot, was made of nice plywood, hand shaped fence. I gave it to a friend who was getting started on wood working

My current cross cut sled is a pice of scrap plywood and a 4x6 screws to it lol.

That's a pretty ring, I don't think I've ever seen labradorite before

This is an older piece i made a while ago, its White Oak with a Pauduk plank on the inside. I'd like to make a similar version of this one in the future.

Olive Wood is amazing! And the shine you got on the finish is top notch

This is a table i made out of salvaged 2x4s and a bigass piece of C-Chanel made it a few months ago, I'm grateful to have access to a welder as I can't have one in my basement where my woodshop is.
