    Recent projects

    A couple projects just finished up. A friend has limited work space in his hunting camp and wanted to know if I could make him a work surface/cutting board that he could place on top of his stove. The board I made is 1" strips of Maple glued up to give him a 30" x 23" work surface. On the underside of the board I put 3/4 x 1 1/2 strip to raise the board above the burners on the stove. I routed a juice groove and put his initial in the corner of the board using the CNC. The finish is mineral oil and beeswax. The other project is for a friends son who has a collection of pocket knives and she wanted me to make a keepsake box for him to store them in. The box is 13 1/2" long, 7 1/4" front to back and 5" top to bottom. I engraved a Deer head in the top using my CNC and engraved his name on the front. I added a button from a Deer horn to the lid to open the lid. The wood is Red Grandis and finished with spray lacquer.

    Beautiful job, Bobby. Love the button detail. He’s going to cherish that forever.
