Planer? I'm the 'planer', and these are what I use...

Steve that is very nice. Love the contrast in the colors. A perfect size table. You really make some very neat pieces.

Steve, great job sir. Hand made to the end buddy. Your determination is inspirational Steve, no matter where you are at in life, you keep on keepin on making sawdust with whatever you have and however you can do it.


I am convinced if you stranded Steve on an island with zero tools on hand, he'd find a way to cut that coconut tree down and shave an end table out of it. Classic example of a woodworker at heart, no matter where he is.


Thanks for sharing Steve!
