A quick shop update – The blog is still alive

This post is going to be quick and dirty, just like my projects lately which you’ll see very soon. 

For anyone who might stumble across this blog now and then, it is not dead. It is very much alive. Alright, maybe sleeping. But to prove it’s still alive here’s the last six months’ projects.


Featured Project

Semi-traditional coffee table

Coffe table made from cherry (frame) and white oak (tabletop and shelf).

All hand-cut mortise and tenon joinery in the frame.

Built with only a handful of hand tools. Please, don’t ask me why I brought it to the yard to take photos but this is the best one I have.
