My lovely daughter gave me this flower delivery wagon for my birthday and it only took about a week to put it together. It is mostly wood, 3 ply, plywood. About as hard as anything I have ever assembled. It takes no glue for all the pieces are cnc cut, but I did add a little glue here and there for extra strength. Maybe she is trying to revive some of my little brain which this puzzle did need and I certainly appreciate her a bunch even though both daughters won't let me win any of the games we play when they show up. By the way it has about 180 pieces so the instructions were a have to thingy. The directions came with a watering can but I don't find an oil can for the bicycle chain! And I do have to water the flowers every day but it came with a bucket for that purpose. The flowers were not added in to that 180 count.

Well, it’s been busy in the shop lately. My grand daughter got two puppies (long haired dachunds), man are they the cutest puppies I’ve ever seen. So I made a dog feeder for her. Then a friend wanted a dog feeder for her chihuahua pup. Then I made a planter for the front porch and was asked if I could make 6 more (of course I would) sold them for 30 dollars a piece and realized I only broke even. Forgot the cost of materials,had gone up. But that’s ok, keeps me busy. Then last night we received a call saying my sister passed away from Altzhiemers. Anyhow, here are the photos of what I made. Not perfect, but with my hands that shake the way they do, I don’t think they look too bad. Oh, my grand daughter also asked if I could make this for her also (she calls it a sculpture. It’s supposed to be her and the pup.

Been wanting to do tulips for a while but instead of cutting the notch ahead wanted to turn thin and carve them. You could say this is a prototype as I plan to mak some changes such as smaller petals. The dye does not do well in pecan. But it is passable.

I started an idea and as I progressed I realized that the idea was a not a good one. So I took the pieces and made a lidded box. It is unusual but I think my granddaughter will like it. It is about 6" dia

It was very cold here today and kept the garage shut up. It stayed around 40 degrees with my small heater. So I decided to finish a project that I had started years ago. A replica of the rare Oak tree flower It is pretty big and I left it alone for years because I didn't know how to finish it. I got an idea and put some leopard wood scrap in the center. I don't know who will want it yet, but I'm sure someone will speak up
