Post a photo of the last thing you made

[Doug71]

A couple of benches for the village Deli made from a piece of locally sourced Oak

No proper joinery involved, just a Zipbolt and Domino to hold the legs on

Legs at the front and bracketed to the wall at the back to hopefully stop them walking as they are near the road. You can't tell from the photos but the legs splay forwards and to the side.

Customer thinks they look great and it's the easiest job I've had in ages, so everyone is happy

Finished with acrylic external varnish, will be interesting to see how long that lasts!

Hi all.
About a month ago bought a Tyme cub lathe, so have been building up a very small collection of chisels and gouges. Two weeks ago found a Rexon bandsaw on marketplace cheap. So Saturday turned a white oak swivel top salt pot from a seasoned log (firewood). Two coats of shellac and quite happy with the result. Only the 3rd thing turned so far but now I’ve made a sharpening jig out of ply for gouges will be doing more.

Couple of guitars i made almost identical. Goncalo Alves back and sides and rarely figured cedar of lebanon tops.

Two pens, Beaufort Ink Leveche kits. One a Conway Stewart blank from The Turner's Workshop, the other from an offcut of burr oak with bronze powder filler.

Router lifter. Looks rougher than a bears arse but everything is level and true.

@Chrispy how did you make the dentils and assemble this please

Hi @nathandavies

Had to find out what a Credenza was, but it is nice to see stuff made nice and solid out of real wood.

Finished this Murphy bar today. Made from reclaimed (assumed Sapele) window frame and sills for a friend. The one photograph is before I fitted the bottle opener but Dave the peacock was in full spread for the camera so I took the shot

Latest complete project - guitar pedal board for my brother’s 30th birthday.

Walnut frame - birch ply top with velcro covering - branded leather logo which is framed with snake wood - stainless steel jack socket surround I turned on the metal lathe, which is surrounded with a little bit of lignum vitae - and not my pedals

 

[Rorton]

finished a small jewellery box for the wife. Walnut with Oak accents, and lined with suede - first time doing anything like this, so quite pleased with the outcome

some more...you know....

sorry they're not woodworking.

52100 chisels instead of recycled files, but still done freehand and shaped by hand and finished by hand.

The chisels on the right have large bolsters because they're going to a professional planemaker in the US who wants to put octagonal beech handles on them. The ones on the left are for me, and and will just have turned handles with brass ferrules.

playing with the lathe, replacement croquet stick, hardwood, turned, painted, waxed, varnished...

Very nice, Mr K.
Don't let the Mrs see that you've stuck the stick into the sofa though!

Thinking about the colouring the balls, I would think any good bright paint would do, then good polyurethane varnish?
Might chip a bit, though that gives them patina and character

Nice bar, KK. And love to see a peacock called Dave

Finished my router table, not as fancy as many on here but it will meet my needs I believe. It is to replace a trend crt? at least 10yrs old. Made next to my MFT and I wanted it to be able to be an extension of that if needed so you can take the fence and mitre out by just removing the cut outs I put in that are held in place with rare earth magnets and washers. Hopefully you get the gist from the photos.....

Morning all,
My first ‘proper’ piece of furniture. All Oak from rough sawn boards. Mortise and tenon joints throughout and my first shot at dovetails on the drawers. (Although, they are machine cut.) Pretty pleased for a first effort.

Morning All

Yesterday I finally finished this patio set. Very simple all done with 2 x 4 cls and screws.
