Just finished another sewing machine side table/desk. Really nice cast iron Raymond treadle base which I took apart, cleaned and put a protective clear on. Paired with a nice thick Fir top that has a two stage stain to give it a little depth and character.

So I visited granny and gumpas antiques today and WOW! Such a cool place to find stuff. I picked up this old treadle sewing machine and really want to build a entrance table/desk with it. I have a ton of ideas but before I pull the trigger on what I want to do. Is there anyone out there that has always wanted a table with a base this beautiful? Then i can build it to suit your style:)

A few better pictures of the piano coffee table. Just needing glass. But that will have to wait till I have the extra cash. Glass ain't cheap😝

I've had these three old doors for a while now. I'd love to use them for something but don't know what the people want. So I ask you guys, as far as old door decor/furniture/ect. is concerned. What would people be interested in? And are any of you interested in a custom project from one of these doors or know someone who is? Thanks in advance :)

Weekend 2 of the patio table build for the wife. Just needs a coat of poly and some benches.

This is my weekend project:) I've refused to go buy a patio table for our home ever since we moved because I wanted to make my own. But my wife has waited long enough and threatened to go buy one if I didn't get to building one. Let's just say she's pretty happy so far.

This is the first project to come out of the old piano I tore down. This soon to be coffee table has used the whole key board and its frame as well as the wood from the back of the piano as the bottom. The corbel legs will get distress and I'll be getting a glass top to finish it off.

I picked up this antique upright piano this afternoon. An it was a beast for two of us to get it loaded in my truck. But I'm pretty excited on all the projects that will come out of this. Keep an eye out for some cool stuff to come.

I had to post this. Any kid growing up in the 80's and early 90's will remember the Nintendo zapper. Duck hunt was one of my favourite games. And even though I couldn't shoot the dog I always tried. So in memory of my childhood I got my hands on an old zapper and made this. Equipped with 3 shots. I was thinking of selling it but I'm pretty sure I'll be keeping this one.
