Show off your wood working skills.

I only have a circular saw and palm sander and cordless drill but i do like building stuff from 2x's i've built several beds like this and made a quick how to video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QtAZNS7UnDE there is some real talent in this thread and ill have to keep my eye on it from now on

just realized that when i edited my video clips together i accedently put two 1st halves together and no 2nd half but i fixed it no worries

 

bout got this guy knocked out last night

 

made a decorative ladder and this was my first attempt at notching things and it went pretty well I think.

 

had a lady ask if I could build her a bed with a little more detail than what I had been doing (her and my definition of "a little" differ slightly) I asked her to send a picture of an idea of what she wants this is what she sent me
and this is what I came up with


I'm pretty pleased with the out come but man it's heavy, its a king size and the footboard is 34.5" tall and the head board is a right at 5'. this started out as 9x 17' 2x8's (I had some waste but I also had to get into some leftovers from other projects so really heavy any way u look at it)

nope, it's just a slow thread.

 

Are you allowed in the store anymore?

 

military related but I made this box for my wife, I had the laser engraving done elsewhere but everything else I made or put together. Its Brazillian walnut couple coats of clear poly...

 

I've been making live edge slab coffee tables lately. This one is walnut with a sturdy white oak base. Inspired of course by the work of George Nakashima.

 

um well not really wood working, mostly just sanding and a lil staining and spray paint, and just replacing some hardware but turned out pretty good, but I think I need more cowbell

Here's a cedar rocker I made for my dad

And the cedar crib I built for my son...

 

Not sure this fits in with the amazing work you guys have done but it might be helpful to someone.

I wanted to buy a few planters for my deck and was astonished by the $60 "redwood stain wood" planters. Very tricky language that. Not redwood but redwood color stain on wood, likely generic whitewood. Ridiculous. So I built these from redwood fence pickets (sides), redwood 2x4 (bottom) and redwood banding. No plans, just decided the length would be 4 pickets wide by 2 pickets deep to make it easy. I also covered the inside with landscape fabric and tucked it under the top trim before attaching. All the boards, save the trim, are attached with coated deck screws.

These were done 4-5 years ago and they are still solid. This weekend I drug them around my deck - 1 fully loaded and it didn't show any signs of deterioration. The other we emptied out to replant and it was solid inside. I can't remember the cost but it was likely 1/3 of the crap the box store was selling.



Kinda hard to see them in this picture but it's all I have right now.

 

Looks good, nice and clean

 

Built this farm table for a lady this past week

 

new headboard design for a bed im building for my sister

 

Looks good - how are you going to finish it? Pic reminded me of my workroom counters I'm putting in:

 

Is there a reason you dropped the step design on the last two boards on the left?

 

holy crap man tw members are on there pattern game. I guess I was just too close to it to see it when I was workin on it. it isn't nailed down yet so I can fix it pretty easy
