Wow!!!!!

I love looking at all the things others build, and marvel at the talent you all have.

Woodworking is a hobby for me. Working on big computer systems pays the bills.

Aside from building everything inside Little Girl (which you can see on our thread), I've built all our kitchen cabinets, several built-ins in our house, and 7 cribs. Somewhere there's a Dustin's Crib thread that has pictures of the cribs.

Below are some pictures of other things I've built over the years.

The upper counter in our kitchen. It's a 1/4" veneer made from various hardwood strips.

My pride and joy - Kay's jewelry box. Also cherry, but special cherry her dad gave me many years ago.

Which she outgrew, so I made a base for it a few years later. Used the rest of her dad's cherry.

Here are some of my favorite tools in my shop, buying everything similarly to my travelux; old and used! And here is a link to my new site: https://alex-wilson-nl64.squarespace.com

ID:	205926 beautiful stroke sander with slab storage above. Used to think this thing took up to much space until we started utilizing above and under.

I thought I was a woodworker, but after seeing the work displayed in this thread, I realize I'm just a woodbutcher.

This video is from the 1940's and shows Redwood Logging, harvesting, skidding, log ponds, mills, techniques and the incredibly tough Loggers that did the work. Watch for the size of the "slabs" they are sawing off.
