Re: PESO: My Winter Hobby

[Stanley Halpin]

Very nice Bill!

Several decades ago I took a one-year one-night-a-week evening class on wood 
working, taught in a high school Shop class facility, taught by the HighSchool 
instructor. I learned to use many powers tools, got to be somewhat proficient, 
have since built our dining table, a couple of couches, multiple book cases, 
etc. Good enough quality, but journeyman work, not master level.
The following year I took another class, this time in the use of hand tools for 
wood working. Our instructor made objects like your box. I took from that class 
a greater appreciation for precision, but I never developed the skill to do 
really fine work myself. I am very impressed with your work!

Re: PESO: My Winter Hobby

[Alan C]

Bill, those are real works of art - well done.

We have a 94 year old, John v d Westhuizen, here in Phlalaborwa who has 
been making a living out of woodworking projects small & large all his 
life. He did his apprenticeship in a furniture factory in Stellenbosch 
when he was a teenager. He is a stickler for perfection so I am sure he 
would be impressed by your masterpiece. He made all the furntiure in his 
house. When he makes chess tables, he measures the individual squares 
with a micrometer! He is currently training his son-in-law who runs a 
sort-of antique shop to restore old furniture which is big business. I 
shall show him your photos.

Re: PESO: My Winter Hobby

[David Mann]

They look really nice.  Wish I had a heated workshop.  We don't get winters 
like yours but it still gets far too cold to work in the garage.

I designed and built a mud kitchen for my daughter during the holiday.  The 
sink came from our old kitchen.  I'd had it propped up on some bricks for her 
for a couple of years before I finally decided to make something a bit better.

http://gallery.multi.net.nz/photo/1132/

I am considering adding some cupboard doors at the bottom, or perhaps a junked 
toaster oven or microwave like they had at her preschool. I definitely intend 
to rearrange those bits of concrete underneath in the near future as they're a 
bit hazardous.

Cheers,
Dave

Very nice work, both the woodwork and the photography.

Just don't let yourself get boxed in .

About 20 years back I made several music boxes, and found it very
satisfying.  I also did so carving with soft stone.  That was quite
challenging and created a lot of dust.

Keep up the nice work!

I don't do much photography in the winter. No studio access these days, 
too cold to want to be outside, that sort of thing.
