Woodworking experience

[SneakerNet]

Someone PM me asking about my woodworking experience or skill. I been involve woodworking since 1977 and I have my own woodshop. So, I thought I go ahead post a few pix of what I have done.

There are lot more but I give a few in term of general idea of either making it for indoor or outdoor.

Nice! Did you teach yourself?

Pretty sweet stuff you have there. I've competed in woodworking before, and when I settle I'll have my own wood shop.

Oh wow!! Did you do the dolphin carving and other wood carvings that are on the long cabinet?

I can see you use a mission style end table (?) with Frank Lloyd Wright design on the top. Nice that it is all geometric.

It's half and half, during Jr and High School there's a woodworking class then I enjoyed doing it. So from there and on... you know.

No, I didn't do the wood carving of the dolphin. I made the cabinet for my father since he's a pianist and he have large collection of piano books. So, that where he store his books in the cabinet. Pix below:

Edited: I forgot to add, yes that is correct. My ex-wife is stain glass maker, so that is how I come up with the design related to Frank Lloyd Wright. Then later I added a light under it.

What is that? It sort of remind me of boot remover from 17th or 18th century.

I thought that it is for lifting a coffin. Oops. My bad. But, it is interesting that you had a first project. Are you a woodworker for your hobby?

Oh I just missed at the beginning of this page. Your furnitures look so nice. Very impressive!
