I got my phone all plumbed in the other night.

It's a but odd having the camera recording all the time- especially going from the bathroom to bedroom morning and evening
Future project will be converting some speakers into headphones to go on the other end of ...

That'll have to wait until Christmas has been and gone

That's some kickass furniture. I hope I can make something as nice someday.

My son's 21st birthday yesterday so we gave him, amongst other things, a 'treasure chest' full of important things from his young life - photos, certificates, sports trophies, favourite t shirts he had outgrown, the name tag from when he was born etc etc etc from when he was a kid. The oak was from an old kitchen - raised and fielded door panels from a solid oak kitchen set which someone had thrown out.

Initials and date engraved

This was my spring/summer project that I'd promised the kidos I build for them (6 & 3) - no beautiful dovetails required thankfully!!

They call it their tree house, but it's actually a 'beside' the tree house! It's well loved and well used; fully wind and water tight bar a couple of drafts through the stable doors).

Well fixed down due to our 'slightly' windy climate here in Shetland. Underneath is their sandpit I made a few years ago - it opens up into two seats.

I made a mistake during the jointing of the stable doors boards; I forgot to alternate the grain radials, so within a week outside in the sun (what little we had of it), it bent like a banana. I blame needing to get it finished and rushing and not thinking, but it was a school boy/day one/first page on how to join wood, error that really really annoyed me. The thing has settled albeit in a bent like state and it will remain like that. As my wife says, I will be the only person it'll annoy. I planed a bow in the internal stops top and bottom that also serve to keep the water out (using a lovely antique compass plane - god that things are amazing!).

The beside the tree house also serves as my 'dog house'.

Simple jewelry box from recycled Sapele bed head. I couldn't find a lid stay anywhere locally, so made one from a bit of brass which turned out OK I think and was easier than i thought it'd be (if anyone is interested in making one). Just needs a bit of felt to line the inside.

Rather like the way the wood glows in the sunshine! My daughters school-leaving present.

Nice job Richard. Well done.
