My first attempt at an M.C. Escher inspired design

A friend challenged me to make this for them.







Bookcase for my friends’ new house!

Thanks to you all for the advice on cleaning up the template!

It’s just three single boards. There’s four invisible feet which keep it stable.

The Rubio Pure came out pretty well but I used acetone to clean it as I couldn’t wait the 3 days for the damn “odorless” mineral spirits which was all I could find locally. I suspect this kept the sheen down, but dunno.

Minimized the sap wood but now I think it could have been more prominent, and very glad it couldn’t be removed altogether.





I made a tv stand

Been woodworking as a weekend hobby for several years now. Really happy with how this tv stand turned out. Definitely room for improvement, but proud of my woodworking progress thus far

Largely made of maple and hevea butcher block wood from Lowe’s/homedepot. The small pieces along the curves are pine (hence the notable color difference)







My son asked me for a headboard for college

So I made him one. He leaves for school on Saturday.

Solid cherry with black walnut accents. Finished with Odie’s.
