It's not the last thing I mad but I just found this and polished it up after almost thirty years of being forgotten about in the garage!!

I made the rubbish stand, Not the casting!! :giggle: :giggle: I think I may make one of rock and stand the rock on a Mahogany base (y)

This big honking alcove shelf unit, nearly 2 metres wide. The biggest thing I've built for a customer, and about the biggest my workshop can handle!

The bottom shelf is raised up to fit Ikea storage boxes full of toys underneath, and the rest should end up fully loaded with books.

That is truly the most hideous thing I have ever seen.
 
Not my latest project, but a pair of folding Adirondack chairs I made a couple of years ago using a Veritas design I bought from Axminster. The wood was salvaged from shopfronts when Blackburn Market was demolished. I think it’s iroko.
I also used it on a folding table I built to suit a tight space on my daughter’s balcony.

Did you mean to attach some images? If so, it didn't work.

Great work !
Fantastic chairs !!

btw.... just curious; what are the plants on the small tables ?
I'm interested in gardening
 
Nothing too exciting, but a was asked by a friend if I could convert two old bedside cabinets into a toy cooker and sink.
These are my attempt at taps, will probably pass a three year old quality control

Is there a table in your near future, Bill?

There is a strong possibility of that! Got desks, hall tables, suchlike on the wishlist, they're a long way off but the jig will help with planing smaller pieces more accurately in the meantime.
 
A little weekend project to upcycle a pair of nesting coffee tables.

dark wood so 70’s
