Lets see your Woodworking Skills

I know there is some talented people on TBN and I have seen some very nice woodworking pictures posted. I was finally able to take a few pictures of my work.

First set is a Queen Ann style corner china made from solid mahogany. Tough piece to make because of all the angles. The doors on the bottom were made with a table saw and block plane for the rounded top of the raised panel. The columns were 4 pieces glued together, turned, fluted, and split.

Second set is a slant top secretary I designed and built. All dovetails had cut, all inside drawers curved, columns turned and split. I made a book case to go on top but during our move I damaged part of it. I have it in the basement for repair this winter.

The O G feet are made by running a piece of 8/4 at 30-60 degrees across a table saw, raising the blade a quarter turn per pass. Then using a block plane to blend the profile. Bandsaw to cut the decorative shape.

The drawers have a bead around them to add depth, not too hard to do but does take some time.

The next piece is a table which was the first large piece of furniture I attempted. Just simple basic turning.

I did draw the overall buleprints to get basic size for all pieces.

The last is the dining room table which I posted in a previous thread. This was an antique county table my wife wanted but I was too cheap to buy. So I made it using barn wood and old porch post for legs.

Hunter -
Just WOW!! That is some really beautiful furniture. I make small, ornate wood boxes - music boxes, jewelry boxes etc. Still, I understand the time and patience it takes to make beautiful furniture. I've tried and its beyond my skill set. Best I could do was a very HD red oak work bench. You can be very proud of your accomplishment with that wood working.

My woodworking starts at the tree.....



Then goes to the sawmill:



Then goes to the wood shop built from the wood that went thru the sawmill:



Then into the dry kiln inside the shop ( run with old window AC ):



Most of the woodworking I do is cabinets and moldings, such as:





But sometimes I make some furniture. Ash table here for a friend, with walnut accents. Table and benches all from the same log.

Thanks guys, I have been working with wood since I was around 10 years old. Mostly sanding walnut trophies my grandfather made then but just like it.

Andy, now that is some nice craftsmanship on the cabinets and table.

Need some other people to post pictures no matter how big or small. It gives woodworkers a good idea for other projects.

You fellows do some breathtaking work. Mine is a big simplistic by comparison, but I enjoy it and the kids don't mind taking it off my hands.
