Charming charcuterie boards. Prior to posting, some have noted a subliminal image on one of the boards. I say get your mind out of the gutter 🙂

Terrific Trivets: 156 pieces come together to make 12 trivets (10 for you Joe). Mix of Brazilian cherry, African mahogany, maple, ash, white oak, sapele and cherry. Personalized engraving.

Quite the challenge to build this console table considering all the angles. Top looks like it is balanced on a single point, but of course it is just an illusion.

You might be thinking: why is this guy making a cedar box in mid-August. Already looking forward to spring. Can we just skip winter?

Congratulations to my niece Danae on her well earned bachelor’s degree. Frame is in Cherry, Philippine Luaun, and Jatoba.

Deluxe facial tissue boxes in Mahogany, Beech, Yellowheart, Ebony, and Padauk.

Rustic charcuterie board of cherry, cumaru (brown), and strips of yellowheart. Knot crevices filled with blue epoxy. Looks inviting 🙂.

Night tables with curves all in the right places. Waterfall grain pattern continuous all around- only possible when corners are mitred. To match guest bed no. 1.

Two repurposed Singer sewing machine bases into nightstands to complement bed. Never throw these out, they are priceless.

Guest bed no. 2. When you find curly cherry, you jump all over it. The trick is to match the boards to achieve a seamless headboard.

3-week (or so) project over the holidays.

Christmas time: trays & trivets. Various exotic hardwoods.
