Upcoming Projects

I am currently working on a toy box of cherry and walnut as well as a set of storage cabinets for collectible ornaments.  Check back for pictures of these projects when they are complete.

New to blogging

I am new to the world of blogs.  If you have suggestions or ideas that might improve my blog or my gallery drop me a note.

I look forward to learning how to interact with a remote audience and present my work on-line.

I will post photos of new pieces

I have not photographed many of my pieces but I will do so going forward.  Visit this site or my gallery regularly to see what is new.  Join my blog (using the link to the right) and invite your friends to visit/join as well.  I look forward to getting feedback and ideas for future pieces.  If you find a particular piece to be interesting let me know.  Likewise, if you find a piece to be lacking I would like know that as well.

I welcome your comments, positive or negative.

Maple and Purpleheart Ring Box

This small box is designed to hold several rings or other small items.  Each compartment is about one inch across.

Sliding Lid Curio Boxes

These boxes are constructed with box joints at the corners and a sliding dovetail for the lid.

Maple and Walnut Flag Display Case

I was commissioned to design and build this to house and display the flag from a deceased veteran's casket.  The body of the case is maple with the trim being walnut.

Maple and Pupleheart Wall Clock

This clock was designed for a music/piano teacher.  She wanted a musically themed clock to hang in her teaching studio.  I chose purpleheart because this client really loves the color purple.  This was my first time working with purpleheart.  Be sure that your tools are really sharp and clean for best results.  While very hard, this wood is quite brittle and chips very easily.
