Wood working Contest Winner: Gift Challenge

---

• Contest Winner: Gift Challenge
• Remember to sign your work. I used to really like this table I rescued from a dump pile two years ago. Just found the inscription...now I love this table. It’s maker, TRBoone, was a janitor at the University of Nebraska in 1914. Thanks for the good work, Mr. Boone. You were an artist.
• My father, an almost perfect woodworker took his own life in the middle of his wood shop last Monday. Us family and friends decided to build his casket using his tools and scrap wood from his shop. He taught me everything I know about woodworking and carpentry. Love you dad
• I've been woodworking for two years now. I'm happy with my progress. Simple Solid White Oak Console.
• Cherry dining table, flattened with router sled and by hand, not perfect but very proud of this. Will not make anything this big anytime soon.
• My grandpa with mobility issues made me this dining table in 2 weeks with very few specialised tools... he is absolutely amazing
• After A year of my wife bugging me to get this done. The sanding and first coat of stain is done! Not an expert by any means.
• First dining table build
• I wanted to add some color.
• "Don’t practice until you get it right. Practice until you can’t get it wrong."
• A set of 4 Sushi plates I made with Pink Ivory inlay.
• Mandalorian coaster I made! Tiger maple and Walnut.
• I posted this table the other day. A guy asked to see the top. I used a plywood back and started in one corner. Used clamps to get it in right and used glue and finish nails. Mitered the edge and I cut a groove in a 2 x pallet runner for a skirt. All pallet wood except for the backing.
• My first venture into something other than framing lumber.
• Today I finished my rockingchair made out of cherry. Only 4 screws used in total, super proud.
• Built a simple laundry hamper using dowels. This is only my 4th woodworking project, and i have alot to learn! I use only hand saws, specifically a dozuki japanese handsaw, and it has been difficult getting perfectly even cuts. Need to add a low angle block plane to my tool collection.
• I know ya’ll aren’t the biggest fans of the epoxy river trend but torching the air bubbles is so satisfying.
• Don’t know if this belongs here among these master pieces. But built this!
• Simple Spalted Maple Coffee Table with Hair Pin Legs.
• I made these rings from a broken skateboard :-)
• Hard not to love spalted maple
• I made a crosscut sled. I did the 5-cut message and it's 0.001" from square!
• Inlaid this tungsten ring with Padauk and memorial ashes. Very custom request.
• Simple dining table I build for my sister as surprise. Wild Black Cherry from our parents' property.
• Participated in a local wood workshop. Quite proud of my first creation - a tea box. Made many mistakes, but learned a lot!
