Tool Update: Thanks to everyone who ordered the Extension Chucks, I’ve send out the first batch of them and am waiting on some parts that should be enough to catch up on the other orders. I had no idea what the demand would be and am excited to have them going into so many shops. It took too long to pull the trigger on this. If you don’t know what I’m talking about, visit here or read the earlier post.

I’ve been getting to finish more pieces recently. In the past few years, the other projects in my life prevented me from seeing much work through to completion. I resisted commissions and after a class, the chair I made along side the students rarely got done as I was beckoned back to working on the house or barn.

I want to share a couple of pieces I have been working on finishing up. I’ve used different materials and techniques and I think you might find it useful to hear what the decision making was based on.
