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.
