7. Simple Bedside Table Updated June 6, 2018

   Basically 4 pine boards got turned into a simple, shaker style table...One board was crosscut and glued up into the top.  Two more were cut into four aprons, with the "leftovers being made into corner blocks.  The last board was a scrap 2 x 10, was resawn into four leg blanks, and then tapered on two sides.
   Mortise & Tenon joinery, nothing real fancy.   Golden Oak stain, and Gloss Poly for a finish.

22. 18th Century Connecticut Blanket Chest Updated June 9, 2017

    This is a pine chest I made based on an American Woodworker issue that contained the plans to build this chest.
    The chest in the issue is a reproduction of the actual chest made by John Wheeler Geer in the 18th century. To see the actual plan set in the American Woodworker issue go to Connecticut Blanket Chest .
    I also built one in Curly Maple, I will post those images as well.

25. Shaker Furniture Updated April 3, 2017

    Recently I have taken an interest in building Shaker furnishings, I have always loved it, but I am ready to build it.
    This album will contain all the furniture I will build in the Shaker style.
     
    Virtually any of the items I will be posting in this album are inspired from books written by Kerry Pierce. Mr. Pierce has created a variety of books on the shaker style, the history and culture of the Shaker community, and within the books there are detailed drawings for much of the work the Shakers produced.
    Here is a link to Kerry's site at Kerry Pierce Furniture and here is a link to his books at Kerry Pierce Books in Amazon . I highly recommend the books by Mr. Pierce, they are well made, and well priced as well.
     
    Just one of Kerry's books
    
     
    Thanks for visiting this album, and thanks for looking!
