I had a really interesting 2015. For the past two weeks it has been my goal to clear the shop of all projects that needed to be finished. The last thing in the shop that has been pressing was an old secretary desk. I am proud to say that it is finished.
Of course I have a load of new work in my truck to unload today 😉
I had many jobs that tested my skill this year. Some are below:
-Large detailed Doll House.
-Decoy Duck signed by former brave Denny Lemaster
-2 very large carved Griffin Chairs
-A neck on a Peavey Bass guitar
-Made several furniture parts from scratch including a curved bed leg
-Latrine Chair
I also did the 31 day writing challenge. Click here to see all of the links of some of the repairs that I did with pictures.
Some of the woods that I worked on this year were Ebony, Wenge, Teak, Walnut, Cherry, Mahogany, Oak, Pine, Ash, Maple, Birch, and Rosewood. Mahogany by far was the most popular.
I worked on my fair share of conference tables, desks, and office furniture. The most work that I had was residential this year though.
It has been an enjoyable year. Thank you to all of my customers, and for all of the referrals.
