    I Spent all day in the shop

    and I made all the parts for the 8 web frames needed for two night stands. I have been building a bedroom set for our Master Bedroom for about 7 years. Everything but the night stands have been done for 2 years...seems like some other project always took priority over this project. Now it is...

    A Good Day Off

    Nothing like a day off, and NO HONEY DO's! So I was able to finally finish a half-done project begun last fall. Ever since making a small vase as one of my first projects, I've been wanting to do a larger one. This one is 9 1/2 inch tall about 6 inch at widest diameter. Wood is Poplar with...

    30 Day aging of posts

    Just noticed a post from Clay that explains why a post / thread was closed after 30 days. This 30 day policy makes good sense for site housekeeping and I can't imagine anyone having a problem with it... provided they know about it. Should this be written down somewhere... maybe in a 'how stuff...

    A day with "Big Mike"

    First let me say that if you ever get a chance to take a class with Big Mike, jump on it, he is a great teacher. And his work speaks for itself This all started when I posted the following pictures. I guess I must have upset Mike's sense of tranquility and order:shocked7fl: , becuase he...

    An astonishing day!

    I met with the owner of The Wooden Stone gallery today and he ordered many pieces of my work for the gallery! I have to write a bio and will be included as one of the gallery's artists! To say the least, I was over-whelmed and astonished. I never even imagined that anything I would make would...

    Went to Lowes the other day

    A couple of weeks back, I went to Lowes and bought a couple of sheets of birch plywood that was made in Canada. This stuff was 3/4" thick (0.750). What are those Canadians thinking, everybody knows that 3/4 ply is supposed to be less than 0.750. What idiots- making something that is the size it...

    Arts and Crafts day at the Lowman house

    This weekend, I made some footstools to put in front of my chair at the computer. Since I sit in front of the computer about 10 hours a day, they save on my back some. I decided I should make it in the color scheme NCState! Then a carolina fan jumped me for one, then a clemson fan jumped me...

    Father's Day Gloat

    Dad's Day was good! I guess I've been a good daddy because I got the PC PSH1 HVLP and a Delta 6x48 belt/9 inch disc sander.:eusa_danc :eusa_danc :eusa_danc Pics attached. Sander's assembled and works well. HVLP sprayer is in the box, but hopefully counts toward a dual gloat!! Chuck
