Oar
I started making this oar in about 2007. I figured it was time to finish it off. It is man sized and made out of Oak, Maple and Mahogany. All the joints are glued together with biscuits.

Segmented bowl
This is my first attempt at making a complicated segmented bowl. I have made some simple ones in the past, but this one requires more steps and more time. This is maple, walnut and oak.
Once glued together and sanded flat, concentric rings are cut out.
Here is what it looks like before the gluing process.
Using the tailstock on my lathe as a vice.
Here is the finished product.
Morning Glories
These are some flowers I grew by my shop door. They didn't bloom all summer long and I couldn't figure out what was wrong. As soon as the temperatures started cooling I got flowers.
