The Workshop Has Re-Opened for Business (kind of)

Mostly recovered from hip surgery, I've been back into various projects for the last month or so.  Unfortunately, work has been getting in the way but the Covid-19 outbreak means I might have a bit more spare time if the construction industry inevitably slows down.

A few items from odd scraps of wood:




A couple of cutting/serving boards, Rimu and Jarrah (top) and White Oak (bottom) finished with the remains of some non-toxic chopping board oil.


A handheld router cut sign for the Laundry door.  In Pompei, houses had signs stating "Cave Canem" (Beware of the Dog).  We don't have dogs so Beware of the Cat it is.  Stained Macrocarpa finished with leftover Shellac.



  
A hexagonal outdoor table for the hexagonal gazebo.  Macrocarpa, finished with leftover CD50 decking oil.

We will have to see what the year brings, and how the supplies last!
