Bravo.
Andrew that is fabulous work; really beautiful. I really like the embellishments on the table and the chairs. I liked Mike Pekovich's hay rake when I saw it in FWW. You've clearly stepped it up a...
Thanks for the comments guys!
Nice looking work Scott!
Well Mike, even though not "worth it," the end result looks great!
I finally got around to making some shop fixtures that have been on the to-do list for, well, years. I bought myself a Lie-Nielsen sharpening jig ( and a 5 & 1/2 and a bronze #4 and some very cool...
Great looking work Tim!
That is a nice looking build Steve . . . and some very sweet figure in that cherry!
I agree with everyone David . . . very creative and artsy! I think it IS woodworking and . . . super cool ww'ing at that! Good show. :)
Thanks Jim! What a co-ink-e-dink! :D
I like the live edge on yours. I mixed my own shellac and tried buttonlac on the top for the first time. My son liked the French Polish look, so that is...
Really great looking work Chris! What finish did you use?
Thank you Matt. It was the TOPSKY dual motor ordered from Amazon.

well, well played Ed.
:D
Shellac.net in Napa, CA has it and ships it. It is the same Behlen Behkol that I’ve used as shellac solvent for years, now rebranded/named as “Shellac Reducer.” It is more expensive than it used to...
Wow Brian. That is some beautiful, precise and practical work! Bravo.

Just to clear up the guesses . . . there is no glue unless it is from 100 years ago. I did not chemically remove all of the old (unknown) finish, just a light sanding down to dull as shown in the...
Thank you Tom. I think you may be right.
Anyone with thought on sanding down a bit and applying a couple thin coats of dewaxed blond shellac?
Work? No?
Thank you John! I'll try to get a picture of the current look tonight when I get home from work. Appreciate the help!

Hello Finishing experts:
My FIL has this turn-of-the Century W.W. Greener side-by-side that he inherited from his grandfather. Back around 1930, his grandfather cut off the butt and butt plate...
Andrew, I agree with all of those that commented before me. The subtle, but clearly difficult to execute, transition between the legs and the shelf are sublime. The small carving is a very nice...
I bought a NEW CU300 Classic 5.5 w/o mortise and an E16 in 2008 for about $12K. A Smart (the same basic machine with a more robust slider and different switches at each station) that is 4 years...
Prashun,
I must agree with Jim; your workmanship and design are OUTSTANDING! Another beautiful piece . . .
I agree with what Jim said as well. I purchase mine (along with a CU300 Classic) from Sam in 2008; right at the TOP of the market! My luck: buy high, sell low . . . :eek: Thus, I didn't get the...
