We were working at the house Saturday and our youngest was going through a couple scrap piles. We've been cleaning or burning most of the construction waste and it seems others have decided our house is a dump spot for them, too. He managed to find some nice cedar lumber pieces and decided to keep them so he could build something. He decided he wanted to make a simple desk, so we worked together to make one out of the cedar, some scrap 2x4's and pallet wood. He did most of the main cuts and fitting himself. We think it turned out pretty good.

First winter project. Single track (one loop) cribbage board for 223 shells. Found a huge bag of the perfect sized brass grommets at a junk shop a while back. Tic Toc. Odd winter. It's raining today and washing the snow away. |

Very nice Ethan. Besides boat restoration, it looks like you sure have other talents. Go for it!

A little different from the really nice examples of fine carpentry seen in this thread.
Its wood, and its work! |

Yes, it is a two step stepstool and the bottom section has guides that slide in the top section slot.

Greg, I finally got the camera out again. It's a cheap digital so I hope the picture is clear enough and is what you are looking for. I wish Tim was here to get a decent shot! |

nice work. I personally hate wood, more of a metal person. If this was a metalworking show and tell thread i would be inclined to share. my only woodworking projects are usually a chainsaw, an ax and maul. then stack.

Thanks Tim.
That paddle is a wall hanger for me. What Pete said about that wood is understated IMHO. I lost a big chunk of my sugar maple in the front yard this spring and have the wood where I hope it'll see that progression. |

That was meant as a joke more than anything Gandalf; couldn't get by the association.
My first 'nice' furniture as a child was distressed oak. It wasn't sold that way I guess, but it sure had taken a few knocks and was splattered with black paint all before it was priced as new. I bet the build quality will see it through a few chair dings and dropped bowls. Then it'll be both. |

Looks good guys....so is the paddle to be used or for looks only! Good to see you back Greg! |

Greg,
I appreciate the comment from a class A woodworker. Yup, I've pretty much decided the same and not to distress it, leave it the natural color and even go the easy route with a Tung oil. |

That's sharp Pete. Do you have a detail pic of the long edge joinery?
I've heard it all now! Distressed?!!? All that work getting it as straight and square as I'm sure it is, and you wanna beat it with a chain? I could go on with this...Mr. KeepItOriginal. DF is soft enough to get torn up on its own. |
