Slab Tables


By harvesting a fallen maple tree, I could have lumber cut into my ideal thickness. These slabs were part of forward thinking and, as planned, they became reality after some lengthy deliberation about leg construction. The black walnut dowels added for strength and eye appeal. After discussing the bark idea with a couple sources, I attached the bark with two part epoxy. This added another level of eye appeal.

These are all sold, but I am available for commissions.

Sandbox Toy


While visiting a friend, he asked if I could fix a toy he had. Always one for a challenge, I accepted. After fixing his toy I made improvements in strength of parts that were broken and also in mimicking looks of the real toy. My modifications seem to work well.
