Very nice projects there. The people that created those pieces are quite talented and true craftsmen.

I have a woodworking sickness. I frequent woodworking stores and buy some awesome wood that I have no idea what to do with.

Yesterday, I picked up some exotic Mexican bocote in Phoenix. Something I don't see in Illinois. Now I just need to figure out what to do with it.IMG_0569.JPG
