Lon Kelley - My daughter needed two new lamps. So I made them from Wink Wood, what else? Finished with spray poly.

Tom Paulley - I made two cutting boards for a friend to give as wedding presents.  The boards are black walnut and the insert is hard maple.  I have the initials laser engraved into the maple, then I inset the square into the board.  The finish is mineral oil and beeswax.

David Janowitz - The first bowl is just an ordinary pleasing bowl shape, but is special in that is is made of Camphor wood, and has a wonderful fragrance!  Treated just with mineral oil.  9" x 2 3/4"

The second is a candy dish of Osage Orange, with just Tung oil on it.  As usual, I love the fine polish this hard wood takes to get that shine.  9" x 1 1/2"

This is another try at epoxy.  Definitely learning on the fly.  I didn't want to use a huge amount of resin, so a lot of it is shallow.  More Osage Orange.  This table is too short to design like a traditional trestle table, with seating on each end, so I put the legs only two inches from the ends to maximize side seating.  At 68" x 32", you could squeeze in 6 if you had to, but makes spacious seating for 4. Mortise and tenon joints for the leg assemblies.  I also made this to break down, with horizontal tusk tenon joints to attach the stringers, threaded inserts in the top, with screw slots in the top cross members to allow for wood expansion, and threaded inserts and levelling feet, all stainless steel hardware, as this will be outdoors.  I did not want to use a film finish outdoors, so I used Minwax Maximum protection wood preservative, plus Howard outdoor furniture wax on the top.  

David Janowitz - I just finished a large outdoor bench, 8'8" long, 4' tall in the back, 34" deep.  For those of you old enough to remember Laugh In, one looks like Edith Ann sitting on it.  The seat is also 22" high, without the cushions!  Anyway, White Oak, lots of mortise and tenon joints, frame and panel for the solid faces.  I used dado grooves in the frames, and just a rabbet on the panels to fit, and space balls to allow expansion.  I had to link two bar clamps to glue up the front and back faces, as they are over 8' long.  The seat had to hinge, (stainless steel 8' piano hinge,) to allow access to pool valves and a hose, a gas jet, and a dryer vent,(the latter will go out a hole in the right side so not all that hot moist air is inside the bench.)  With all that stuff below, very little in the rear could be below 22", so I had to build support below the seat from front to back, and added braces with screw slots in the solid 1" thick 98" x 33 1/2" seat, that can rest on the supports.  I added a flip up stick in the middle to hold the seat in the up position while working with the stuff below.  Finished with 2 coats of Behr premium semi-transparent outdoor stain, supposed to be good for 6 years on decks.   Big job.  

Denis Muras - The Dinosaur group is a set of plans from Toymaking Plans. I used the free poplar from Dave VanDewerker and Andy Tofrui to make them. I am planning on making more for donations. I will also be making some from white pine, as I removed 2 kitchens and have a load of white pine from the shelving. 

The 2 helicopters I had made before. I am using up more of the white pine from the kitchens.
