Thanks Sir,

 

It is only the last 4 years that I managed to get back to woodworking (did not have space to do it previously - and limited time), so not many impressive projects done yet.  

 

Most of my previous stuff was more functional than visually appealing (lots of built-in cupboards for own use, a mobile work bench, router table etc.).

 

The pens are nice and quick, so I have made a few pens already.  Will post one or two more pics when I photographed them. (Also still plan to build a "light box" for pen photography.)

 

There are a few more projects at home that has to be done, will post them as they are completed.

 

PS:  I have done a few pencil sketches a few years ago, will see if I have a photo or two...

 

PS:  Check out this mobile workbench - I bought his plans and built a similar one.

Does anyone have a contact for laser cutting in Gauteng?   My friend need 100 hearts of  around 10 cm by 3 mm thick for his wedding.

Tx, seems as if they do metal only.  They are looking for wooden (supawood) hearts.

My wife has been bugging me for a while about getting a picnic table for our patio. After looking at a few ads on Gumtree I Jokingly said "No way, I can build one for half the price!" Next thing I knew the challenge was on and this was the result. Considering my woodwork experience goes as far as putting up the odd shelf or building car audio sub boxes I am pretty pleased with it. Total cost was just shy of R1000, including 2L of Woodoc 35.

I've just had an accident in my pants... 

I didn't, :ph34r: but I understand why. Beautiful tools to make beautiful things. That's truly cool. :thumbup:
