Gonna look even better tomorrow... my buddy wanted custom wraps to cover his old, twisted, pressure treated posts... crown molding...upside down and backwards and caulked into place—to drive the water out and away from the cap without giving an opportunity for water to do what water does.

Used PVC for the places that will experience prolonged water contact.

Tomorrow, they’ll get a little bondo and primer.

Per the client’s instructions, a couple of matching stair skirts ready for them to paint and install seamlessly into their well done DIY baseboard update... pretty stoked that they went in perfectly on the first stab! (I was nervous because the client helped me carry them inside after they were cut! Lol!)

Fun day!

(The gaps will disappear when they’re actually installed. Lol.)

Had a prospective client...and a really good buddy... ask me to make him a cabinet/stand for his audio components...told me he had some stuff he’d like me to use and gave me a few design constraints.

Gave me four cedar fence slats, 3 2x4s, and a couple 2x2s...

It had to wait for a personal day, because this is just hobby shop stuff, here, but... I reckon I can make something man-cave worthy out of this.

I view it as an audition.

May it lead to future builds!

(That crowned board is begging to spend the rest of its life displaying them naturally beautiful curves...let’s see what we’ve got, here...)

Update: I ended up only using the cedar slats and 2 of the 2x4s... turned out not bad. Was, definitely, a fun project and a solid reminder that creativity is the thing I love most about making things! Fun day!

Decided to employ a little Japanese-inspired Shou Sugi Ban to blend the transitions between the cedar and the fir.

A year ago, I was sitting in a desk next to a dear friend and said, “you know what!? I’m tired of having so many people to answer to! I just want to make cool stuff and see people smile!”

Today, I’m a happy owner of a Small Business with another happy client. :)

Chamfered the edge on this one. Gonna suggest backlighting it to the client.

I really like how the first one turned out for my buddy in Wi******er.

Sanding, sanding, sanding... lol. And more sanding after work, today. Should be applying first layer of Minwax Polycrylic today. It’s the best water based sealer for natural colored pine in my book.

In the test run five years ago on pieces of this blued pine... this product has noticeably ambered less than any of the other 5 products chosen that day. Polycrylic, it is!
