A very old Scandinavian doorway. Carve yours now and you're great grandchildren will have a very old doorway.

I don't know? I like the table, and I like the chairs, but I don't think they go together. :confused:

Grab a couple doors from the junkyard and build a unique* wardrobe.
* code word for ugly.

That's like something out of Sid's room in Toy Story, after he hits puberty.

Puzzle...

Clodfobble 02-05-2017 10:41 AM

There's a seam in the middle of the "I" shaped piece in the picture on the left. Those pieces split to become the bottom left, and top right corners in the picture on the right.

OK, like this. There appears to be a seam in the center, probably to make the leaves a manageable size, but both would have to be used.

Need an axe? Carve one or weld one.

Convert an old upright piano to a desk...

BigV 02-08-2017 11:04 PM

I could do that. Although, I like the liquor cabinet treatment too and would probably get a lot more use out of that transformation. Which one would sell for greater profit I wonder....

I have the means, motive, and opportunity. All I lack is ... permission. I'm not willing to substitute forgiveness at this point. I am saving that trade for the unexplained disappearance of the pellet furnace. shhhhhh.....

Dude reminds me of the fellow what dragged the anvil up that hill on Arran.

Actually, he reminds me of Vinnie Jones.

They look cool but the handrail stops 5 steps up.
Over 1 Million injuries and 12,000 deaths as the result of stairway falls.
Staircase and stairway accidents are 2nd only to motor vehicles.
Most falls start at the first, or last 3, steps coming down.

Griff 02-18-2017 08:41 AM

It looks like a mid-stream design change...

BigV 02-18-2017 10:05 AM

While you're whittlin' cut up a pencil...

BigV 02-20-2017 10:52 PM

Less impressive when you consider that the "pencil" is 18" in diameter.

xoxoxoBruce 02-22-2017 07:48 PM

Who says ceramics have to serious? I think it's great, I'd love to own it.

I thought this was a teapot, or a bong, but it's a bud vase. :rolleyes:

These Adirondack chairs look pretty comfy...

BigV 02-23-2017 10:34 PM

Yes, they do.

They are right at the top of my list of projects to make to decorate the deck. They look very, very comfortable.

It looks rugged, and the seats are defined to you can tell the fat guy, or the seam sitter, to move over.

Another one of those huge slab tables. I like it but the metal sutures and the odd mismatched plugs... well, I'll just say it's not nearly as elegant as George Nakashima would have done. Kind of like a school shop project, Jimmy do this hole, bobby do that hole, etc.

BigV 03-03-2017 06:05 PM

I've driven past a... Well, it's a parking lot. But there's a sign, and maybe a shack, and dozens of big slabs. The ones I've seen are 4ft wide and they're stored on end, they look... 16 ft long? More maybe. Gigantic.

I'd love to produce something like this, but I'd be working in the yard under a tarp for. Who knows. Still, ruggedly beautiful.

Good idea for a quick change from couch to bed, BUT invariably the couch is up against a wall, so folded down like that you have to climb over it to pee in the middle of the night.

If you're going to make shit, ya gotta have a little bench.

BigV 03-12-2017 11:23 PM

woodworking porn.

glatt 03-13-2017 10:07 AM

We have discussed titles before, so I won't go into detail, but I think it's a little silly that he put his dentistry training credentials on his woodworking bench.

I also think the strategically placed wood shavings on the floor are silly.

But that bench is freaking gorgeous and reinforces an idea I had to incorporate into my bench a floor length wooden vice that was my grandfather's brother's.

Happy Monkey 03-13-2017 01:32 PM

That is quite a dovetail.

xoxoxoBruce 03-13-2017 10:16 PM

I suspect the dentist commissioned it.;)
