Another custom table approaching completion. A bit more sanding then some finish. This one was made from a piece of maple that was destined for the burn pile. Needed a lot of work but I love salvaging beautiful slabs like this.

Finished restoring this dress or for my son. It was my father-in-laws then my wife's, then our nephew and now after a complete overhaul, it is my son's. Very happy with how this turned out and amazed at how long it lasted from a structural perspective.

Another custom table started. Lots of work to do on this one. Already sealed with penetrating epoxy and rough sanded. Now to fill in the copious cracks and voids. Customer wants to see into the voids so some deep pour clear is on deck. # customfurtiture .

Prepping for a major shop upgrade. Taking over the rest of the garage (apologies to my wife who will no longer fit her car in the garage... ever). Adding a drum sander and probably a cnc plasma cutter. Going to build an assembly/out feed table and a new workbench. .

Onward may not be the official theme of this show but it is appropriate. It is a chance for these retired racehorses to move Onward from the track and I to new lives. It is also appropriate for me personally. After years of addiction I am finally moving Onward from my alcoholism. 13+ months dry now. Has not been easy but I am here. If you need help moving Onward, please reach out.

This is what happens when the end of the logs are not sealed after cutting. You can easily see the moisture gradient from the edge to the center. This uneven drying causes checking or cracking at the edges. To minimize this, paint the ends of your logs with Anchor Seal or just old latex paint. This seals the ends and slows drying. #thebeautyofrot #urbanforestry #milling

First cuts for my entry into urban forestry. Some logs, albeit small, I've obtained around the neighborhood. Ambrosia Maple, Honey Locust and something to be determined (maybe Ash). First cuts were the smaller ones on the bandsaw. Next I will assemble my chainsaw mill for the larger ones.

Dust collector in progress. Big assist from the boy saving my knees

After doing a flurry of projects for the horse art show with @lajbaumann I was left with a ton of scraps. So I am using the opportunity to test the new Ecopoxy I received and make a bunch of selcrap wood servings trays. I'll post more on how I am doing these later.
