Re: Podium

I made the hardware based on pictures of desks that fold out and a support comes out as you open it. I made it because I needed something heavier than was available.

Re: Hand Plane

Seems to work fine. Haven't used it a great deal yet

Re: Bookshelf for Daughter

Thank you. It was a fun challenge.

Re: Entry and Screen Door

The screen door was finished with spar varnish and the entry door with lacquer with a satin finish.

The clock is made from black walnut. The top is veneer from a 1939 airplane restoration job I got to do with Boeing for the Smithsonian. As far as the design I didn't draw it out but if you like I took some pictures along the way that I could send you.
