Whoowahh!! Scrap sword for my 6yo niece. Ill sand off and round the edges of the "blade" for looks.

RANOVRU · 11-22-2013, 07:13 PM

Still needs another couple coats on the top and some touch up on the frame but its 90% done. Another 1-2 days and itll be inside with glass in use. Will take pics...

Nice! That's a pretty big area, I used to do that kind of stuff a few years ago. I miss working with wood but now I get to do it as a hobby instead of a job and I do like that. I was starting to get into building custom mantles before I switched jobs, can't wait till I buy a house of my own to start fixing up. Would love to see more of your jobs.

Here is a couple of mine

Celtic knot pen in Bloodwood and maple

Shadow box in white oak

RANOVRU · 12-05-2013, 07:19 PM

Coffee table done.

RANOVRU · 12-07-2013, 04:22 PM

Bench and bird barn for my mother in law. She said she wanted something made by me for x-mas so this is it. Nothing special...

I guess this would count as wood working? A few slingshots I've made.

RANOVRU · 12-07-2013, 05:35 PM

What are those made out of and what do you use to make them? Cool stuff.

scale4x4 · 12-07-2013, 06:05 PM

It's called spectraply, is a high quality plywood normally used for making gun stocks, duck calls ect. I cut the slingshot out on a scroll saw, go over to my drill press with a drum sander to refine the shape, go to my router with a 1/4" round over bit, if I need finger grooves, back to the drum sander to make those, then sand them to 500 grit, 2 coats of helmsman spar urethane, when that's dry I coat them in paste wax, then buff them out.

Some model BS from another thread. Ill put a couple small windows around and call it a day.

RANOVRU · 12-21-2013, 08:31 PM

Not hobby but work at my job that Im proud of. I finished this up this past week. Work was for a private school.

Moved the divider wall between the closet and bathroom over about a foot. Rebuilt subfloor. Reframed doors and part of front wall. All new trim, base/shoe, 2 piece casing for the doors, new shelves for the closet and hung the rock. Installed custom prehung doors.

idahorock · 12-21-2013, 09:52 PM

Good gravy that is stunning. I have always wanted to learn woodworking. I wish I had this kind of skill, I would love to make myself a bow.

Built some shelves in the garage today, nothing fancy just to store tools. Anyhow this is wood work so....

RANOVRU · 01-12-2014, 07:45 PM

Overhead shelves above countertop in kitchen at my MIL's. Obviously about halfway finished. Will post updates.

RANOVRU · 01-18-2014, 12:07 PM

Shelves finished.

GRIMGREG · 01-18-2014, 12:51 PM

Just my opinion, but I think the brackets make them too busy.

nappahdog · 01-18-2014, 01:46 PM

Installed a couple weeks ago; house burnt down to the ground last week :(

RANOVRU · 02-09-2014, 03:59 PM
