Shop assistant prefers . . . 

Our shop assistant was helping me take photos, she seemed to prefer the bees wax finish.

update: Final project  

Ball Jar and Rope lamp, at the Farm.

Sandie found the bracket and jars, and the rest just went together with a nice piece of maple for the back board.

the bracket makes the light!

bulbs look good!

Architectural Salvage Coffee Table

Coffee table made from oak, steel angle iron and antique floor air return.  Some of the oak is construction salvage; the steel is from network wiring race and a bed frame, and the air return grate was obtained at a junk sale.

Oak and Steel

We found the air return floor grate at a farm yard junk sale with 'the Paula'.  I picked it up with this project loosely in mind.

Here are the original parts - air return grate and
metal from wiring rack

Thanks for the parts !!

I like to have the canine assistants in the shop to help with projects.  I wanted a way to open the garage door, yet keep them from running into the street or from chasing squirrels in the front yard.

I think I have it figured out.

'Cattle Panel' sections from Tractor Supply - I cut
them into shorter lengths and connected 
them using chain links. 

A couple of eye bolts in the garage door
moulding.  Slip the grate over it and 
drop a piece of rebar through the 
eye bolts

Puppies stay in garage and have run of the back yard
(Doggie door in back of shop).

Coat hook rack - Walnut base and hooks made from up-cycled tools.

The lighter colored steel contrasts nicely with the darker Walnut.
 Happy with how this one tuned out. 

Walnut turned out really good

Scrap iron and wrenches.  Lacquer finish on the wood.

Another 'Beard Oil' display shelf.  I think next will try to make a larger 'Bathroom shelf'.

Custom request as a gift for a co-worker's son.  Baseball bat display.  (he played for Roncalli High in Omaha – the 'Pride' was team name.)
