Woodworking

Just within the last couple of years I realized a new passion: woodworking. Something about the material, the exactness, and the finished, usable product really appealed to my sense of purpose. I'm only a beginner at this point, learning how to use the tools, learning and practicing differnt techniques for joinery and finishing, and with each piece I feel more confident.   First, my basement wood shop:   Router Table and Cabinet: Oak Plywood, accessories from Rockler   Workbench: Pine, Oak Plywood, stainless steel hardware   Rolling Cart: Pine, Oak Plywood, UHDPE, and assorted hardware   Kitchen Addition: Pine, Stainless steel hardware   Corner Cabinet: Pine   Cubical Cubbies: Pine, Hardboard   Cubical Dresser: Pine, Hardboard   Porchswing: Pine, Stainless steel hardware   Work Stool: Oak, Purpleheart (detail)
