I'm making a War Hammer.  If you don't know what a War Hammer is, don't worry, I didn't either.  This is a tool that was designed by Matt Moore to help cross fit athletes change weights when they're using barbells without a bench.

Here's how I understand it, though...

The Whiskey Crate is complete!  The video below shows the progress and outlines the work that I did to put it together.

Thanks for watching!

The whiskey crate is really coming along.  Check out the video to see the progress.

 Thanks for watching!

I'm continuing work on the whiskey crate.  If you haven't checked out the other couple of entries on this project, please look at parts 1 and 2.  

This week, I finished up most of the carving, though I still need to carve the recipient's name on the lid of the crat...

I've been working some more on the whiskey crate and the sides are nearly done.

I have a close friend who works for the Virginia Department...

The Baptismal Font is complete just in time for Easter!  I knew it would happen, and I'm very happy with the results...even if I had to make two of them to get it right.

While making version 1.0 of the font, I had a slip up and ended up having to re-cut a series of join...

I'm making progress on the baptismal font.  This video is a bit less technical and shows the process that I use on most of my projects.  I begin with rough cut lumber from my local hardwood dealer and mill it into a usable size.  Sometimes I just need two flat and para...
