I like how you matched the knots on the two vertical pieces. A lot of people wouldn't have taken the time to do that.I finally finished my bow rack. I've had this beetle kill pine sitting around in my garage for about 8 years. SO glad to have it up on the wall.

I still have a few pieces of the pine left, but they are smaller so they don't take up too much space. Might try to turn something on the lathe.
I nearly messed that up. I was laying them out to mark up the holes for the pegs and it didn't look right, but I couldn't figure out why. I spent a long time trying to figure out what was wrong. I'm glad I didn't just push past the thought and start drilling.I like how you matched the knots on the two vertical pieces. A lot of people wouldn't have taken the time to do that.
Nicely done! The grain is gorgeous.I made this dinner table for my wife for our 15th anniversary. After a decade of teenagers and sharpie accidents and life, it was due for a facelift. Sanded it down and in the process of refinishing it. Man, I love wide plank quarter sawn white oak. There’s nothing like that first coat of Waterlox.

If you can get Man-O-War oil clear coat, about the best you can use for the money.The crappy old front door on my little 1929 home was always a wind tunnel. It had fifty coats of paint. No point in stripping it because it never was the right size to start with and had strips cobbled on the edges to make it fit. I priced new steel doors and almost soiled myself. So I made my own door from treated 2x6 and weathered boards stripped from walls of that porch when I remodeled. I used a biscuit jointer router bit and full length strips to join the boards together. I finished installing the screen door yesterday (recycled from the Habitat for Humanity Re-Store) and will finish stripping the interior door today. I'll hopefully get exterior stain on both sides of the outside door before leaving for Montana.View attachment 242259
Puppy is waiting for the black squirrel to make his morning appearance.
Thanks. Selection is very limited in my neck of the woods unfortunately. Of course I want to use the same finish and coats on both sides of the door or it will twist. Gotta be concerned about fumes.If you can get Man-O-War oil clear coat, about the best you can use for the money.

Gorgeous!Early Christmas present for the missus. My dad brought this walnut home from his knife company in the early 1990's. It was used for knife handles. It sat upstairs in his garage from the early 90's until 2005 when I drove back across the country to retrieve it. I've been toting it around the west with me (including 3 moves) until I finally stopped threatening to make a table out of it and actually did it.
