2012_taco 2606 Posted December 6, 2018 How did that desk turn out? Not trying to bust any onions but it's been a long time since we heard anything about it. I started to put together a shadow box to display a sword. A friend from work son was awarded this sword for finishing top in class! Still got some finishing to do but it's getting there. Wood is cherry. Wiil post pictures when it's done. 8 Quote Hunt when I can.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

2012_taco 2606 Posted June 15, 2019 (edited) Rather than starting a new thread I figured I would add to this one. I needed a table for the end of a couch at my daughter's and made this to match the 2 tables I refinished that are posted on this thread earlier. This table is designed to slide over the armrest at the end of the couch. It's nice getting back to work on some projects in the shop. May was not a good month for doing anything other than hunting and recovering from hunting! Edited June 15, 2019 by 2012_taco added text. 11 Quote Hunt when I can..

UpStateRedNeck 1825 Posted September 30, 2019 Wood working is such a great skill to have. Wish I was better at it. I made a couple things out of some cast off maple from uncle's saw mill, and they turned out OK, far from great. Perhaps when I retire in 17 years....

Jeez.....I think since 2/2018 we’ve resurfaced the driveway (from the sidewalk to the garage and side of garage) widened the driveway apron from 1.5 to 2+ cars with concrete, new front entry door, new skinnin’ shack addition to the original shed, a shiit ton of topsoil & grass seed and the other day added a couple new boxwoods to the side of the house. Wednesday a new patio set comes...... The wallpaper NEVER looked better. 5 Quote Please support the hunting of Mourning Dove In New York State.
