My new hobby, woodworking.  

Latest project, a desk for Asa.  Made of oak and finished in walnut stain and polyurethane. The top 2 drawers were scavenged from an old table. My first time of really doing half-blind dovetail joints on the drawers.
 I finished Asa's bed today.  It is a standard double made from oak with a dark walnut stain and waxed.  There are 42 pieces of wood in the bed.  I guess a matching chest of drawers and dresses are next up.
I used the last of my walnut to make 
a TV stand for our new TV.  I put a 
walnut stain and the just Johnson's 
wax and buffed to a dull finish.  It is 
42" wide, 25" tall and 14" deep.  
The bottom is crammit space.
Eureka! I found some more walnut, not much but enough to do a small project or two.
 
A bowl made from a single piece of log.  Notice the knot hole.  Kim uses this as a bread bowl. 

My latest work, a 5 ft dresser and mirror that matches Kim's bed and night stand/chest of drawers.  This is almost the last of my walnut... I'm depressed. 

Red cedar coffee table for my next door neighbor who provided two cedar trees. Queen size bed for Kim and Clayton.  Black walnut.

Walnut table and bench in Kim's Ole Kentucky Home.

Walnut night stand to match Kim's bed. Those white places are not cracks, just white sap wood.

9 ft. Cherry table for and matching 12 in. bowl for us.  I have less than $200 in these two pieces.

An experiment, a cedar bowl made from a log. Unfortunately the log was green and several cracks formed while drying.

A coat rack made of oak for the laundry room.

A rustic 4' by 4' black walnut kitchen island, serves many purposes.  I cut the walnut from nearby woods.
