I really want to share this project with woodworkers because it has proven that I have to, like you say, think out of the box.

Here is the latest project that I finished. It is a coffee table for a corner sectional couch.

Check it out!Jim’s End Tables – Viewer Project
This is my most ambitious furniture project to date and one I am verrry happy to be finished with. Needless to say, my wife is happy also. She wanted two new end tables to replace the nice, but 30 year old ones we had in our living room.

I built this table with my friend Matt and my father-in-law George. We built it in George’s basement. He has all the tools, which was nice. We went over there every weekend for about two months to complete it.

Check it out!Not Your Average Pine End Table – Viewer Project
The Ottawa Woodworking Association (OWA) last year had our first 2X4 competition. The basic idea is to take one standard construction grade pine 2X4X8’ long and let your imagination go wild to see what you can make with it. There can be no other wood added to the project. It is challenging and lots of fun.

Let’s check out Jonathan’s unique design and unconventional use of joinery:
So a couple of months back I emailed you asking ‘how the h*** do you finish wenge?’ You responded with a brilliant answer which I followed some of, and sorta “adapted” the rest. Here is my finished Asian “inspired” hall table. Its mostly [...]

The finish is [...]

Walnut Side Table – Project of the Week
This week’s project comes from Lee in Austin who writes:
