Some woodworking projects

I really enjoy woodworking and usually have a project going. The most recent big undertaking was a cherry sewing center I made for Donna in 2001. She is an intense quilter and uses it just about every day.

You can see the finished Wesley sign, two panels of mahogany, driving by the church on North Pleasant Street, Amherst.

Here's a nice Arizona handsaw, given to me by sister Jean. It's handy when we get these power outages.

Here is a colorful fabric storage shelf unit I made for Donna in 2003 using birch plywood. I painted it with primary colors. This picture was taken BEFORE she loaded it up with fabric. I should have made it about ten times this width, but our house isn't big enough.

   I am a true Carver. Here's a carved letter sign I made in 1997 for the Wesley United Methodist Church, Amherst.

Cherry blanket chest I made for Claudia as a wedding gift, 1993. Note the dovetailed joints.
