Accessories

My work is not limited to pieces of furniture.  The following are a few of those "knick-knacks" that make a house a home.

Bowls
I start with a green log, hollow the bowl cavity with an adze, and shape the exterior with a hewing axe.  I then refine the shape with a drawknife, chisels, gouges, a hand plane, and a spokeshave.  The following photos are of bowls I have carved from locally-available wood species.

Boxes
I love to make boxes... what else can I tell you?  The dovetail joints are strong and attractive.
