Needed a place to store some firewood so I came up with this. Welded some square tube together and bolted some thick rough cut oak to it. Worked out pretty well.

Scrap Steel Desk Lamp
I had some scrap round bar left over from the cue rack and decided to use the compact bender and see what I could come up with. Its made from two pieces welded where the legs meet the vertical, bent a small piece of steel into a loop and welded it to the end for the cord to go through. Wired up an Edison bulb to some cloth cord. Next time I will move the legs down a little, it seems a little top heavy.

Wet Sanding
If you want a professional finish its imperative that you wet sand the orange peel out of the sanding sealer. Makes the finish like a mirror. Top tip.

Brunswick Centennial Install
Installed the Centennial this weekend in Delaware. The most sought after table on the planet right now and its no wonder. Designed by Donald Deskey for Brunswick. Same guy who designed the interior of Radio City Music Hall. Killer.
Walnut MacBook Stand
Had some scrap walnut and decided to make a stand for the laptop. Pretty simple but I like the blend of materials.

For Sale
Well I finally broke down and listed my GSXR for sale. This was the very first bike that I owned and I just don't ride it anymore. Off to a new home it goes.
Grilling
Some time ago I hit a deer with the truck and smashed the front end up pretty good. I fixed everything but never got around to the grill. Finally I made the metal pieces that fit inside the plastic grill section.
Welded some threaded rod to the back to give me something to bolt to.
Painted it to match the truck and put a used bowtie on it.

High Gloss Black
My old man is working on a Brunswick Gold Crown for a guy and wanted to convert the corners and feet to a high gloss black instead of the silver. He gave them to me to powder coat but I couldn't get the impurities to stop coming out of the metal. I decided that I would shoot the with base/clear. Need to wet sand them to get that orange peel out. Hopefully they will look like a mirror when I'm done.

Delivered Anniversary
Well I finally finished the Anniversary that I was working on. My brother and I installed it this weekend in North Jersey for a customer. The table looked spectacular in the purpose built room. You'll have to excuse the junk photos. I woke up at 5 am to install it and forgot the camera.
