Christmas toys and bending cauls

The embryonic stage of a classic six board chest.

Three year olds don't care about woodworking. I make a nameplate for a co-worker. I also make a napkin holder.

I made a thing in one afternoon! It's a wine caddy. Now I can hold a bottle of wine and two glasses with one hand, freeing up my other hand to do all kinds of activities.

A lack of direction leads to dovetails and carving.

I suddenly need a shooting board, so I build one out of twelve inch wide mahogany.
