A few of the things I have made from the lumber from old houses we have taken down. First two are the blanket chest I made for my daughter. Next is the chest I made for my Son. Toy box now, but built to be gun chest. Tray for bullets and small stuff. Last is book case. Show stuff you have made.

Friend of my daughter wanted an armoire, but wanted no particle board in it! Could not find one to buy that way, so hired me! It is split in half the tall way, as the room she was putting it in was hard to access!

Looks great. Reclaimed lumber is fun to work with.
This is one of my first projects 34 years ago before our first son was born. No metal. Pegs and glue. Note the width of the heart pine board on the side.

That is neat. I see the wide boards. I have about six wide pieces of pine that came out of a old plantation house waiting for the right project.

In no particular order: a cherry violin, a curly maple mandolin, an oak bookcase and set of tables, a cherry and maple set for the childrens area of a waiting room and assorted twig furniture. I also build banjos but don't have any pictures left in the computer.

Ceiling beams, 4x6. Three sides, Fourth side was screwed to ceiling like a rail and then the beam fitted over it. Really snug fit. They stayed there without any finish nails with the gorilla glue holding them. So I decided to just leave it there. Been there 12 years and counting. |

Hollow ceiling "beams" 4x6. Fourth side was screwed to ceiling and beam fitted over it, with some gorilla glue. They were so snug I decided to forego the finish nails. Been up there 12 years and counting.

WOW!!!!! Some of you are fantastic carpenters. By comparison, about all I can make is sawdust.

I have been known to make a few things out of wood in the past,
I had Chronic fatique syndrome about 12 years ago and got into woodwork to relieve the boredom. I managed to make 15 clock cases all in the antique style and a few rocking horses. This rocking horse belongs to my eldest son. I learned enough to be able to do all the joinery work in my new house including making the kitchen and bedroom units.
