Kelly’s Live Edge Sitting Bench (Dec 3, 2019 )

A simple live edge sitting bench that I made for Kelly's lakehouse as a Christmas present.

Outdoor Coffee Table (Sep 27, 2019 )

This was a quick but very special project because I got to work on it with my grandmother while she was visiting. She absolutely loved using the handplane and kept going until she got blisters. I took a random slab with an interesting profile and added some turned legs to it.

Holgado Bed (Lucia) (Sep 14, 2019 )

A big kid bed for our oldest Lucia. Was a lot of fun to design and tweak to figure out some pleasing dimensions. It started out as the headboard and footboard being the same height, but tweaked it after realizing it was going to look massive. The By Way white oak with exposed joinery finished with Osmo Polyx Satin oil.

Plant Stand (In Progress)

A failed attempt at a little stool for the kids turned into a nice plant stand. Used store bought dowels for the legs. I remember asking Lucia to try the stool, and she promptly fell off because the base is too narrow.

Tool Wall (In Progress)

I reached a point where I started to forget about all the tools that I owned. I figured putting them on the wall would help me remember all the different things I've got.

Madeline Picture Frame (Apr 1, 2019 )

I made a small frame to keep a Madeline illustration that I made for Lucia on Procreate for iPad.

Primavera School Auction Picture Frames (Mar 21, 2019 )

I made a massive 28"x28" frame and a smaller frame to donate to the Primavera School Auction.

Breville Espresso Tamper Stand (Feb 4, 2019 )

Made a quick espresso tamper stand for Andrwe's Breville machine.

Palace Court Monorail Stair Treads (Jan 10, 2019 )

I made a set of solid oak stair treads for my parent's basement renovation. This was a lot of planing with my dad. It was a fun couple of days! My dad used his Shapeoko to cut a recess on the underside of each tread to attach it to the custom metal staircase. My mom meticulously sanded and finished them.
