Custom Chair

Recently I made a trade for an old band saw.  I took it apart and cleaned it.  The trade has opened up lots of possibilities.  This chair is the second chair I have made.  I believe it may be the best piece I have ever made to this point.  It is all black walnut; dowels are also black walnut for strength and aesthetics.

Exotic Wood Turnings

This is the last post before my art show coming up in September. Stop by Abnet Art Farm on September 21 and 22nd, for more information on our artists stop by our blog. This show is part of Take Me to the River.

These are two very unique turnings.

This one is Cherry accented with African Zebra Wood. The texture in the Zebra wood is very unique and beautiful.

This one is Maple and Black Walnut accented with Teak.

Applewood Turnings

These pieces are all one piece solid Applewood burl. The last piece was cut into a lid and base.

The final individual bowl was featured on my daughters blog. Stop by to check it out.

Maple with Black Walnut Accent

Recently I posted some large turned Maple bowls with accents of Black Walnut. These are lower profile bowls with a different type of accent. They have a "stripe" going through them.

Both bowls are figured Maple with Black Walnut accent.

Maple Turnings with fine accents

Two turnings with fine accents. The first is Maple with Red Oak and Black Walnut accents. The second is Figured Maple with a Cherry Rim. This piece is especially neat because the main part of the bowl is mirrored from one piece of wood.

Cherry and Butternut Large Turned Bowls

These are larger bowls. The first is Cherry wood double accented with Black Walnut. The second is Butternut wood with a White Oak base.

Maple

Small solid turned Maple bowls.
