Nice work Bruce! Your output puts us all to shame. Oh to have a business that not only allows the time to produce but also offers an outlet for sales.
Lucky Bugger!!
Are you open at all over Easter, I will be up in the area?
regards
Billy

Thanks for your kind words guy's .
Artme - the Red Bean grows up the eastern seaboard from NSW to QLD ,great to work with and finishes to a deep red / brown colour. It's in the same genus as Scentless Rosewood and Rose Mahogany , Drysoxylon from memory. I've made a few hall tables with it as well that turned up beautiful.
JackD - making anything for the hell of it is a joy , making anything for a livelihood is a pain ,time constraints , compromises , waiting to be payed and the like. The boxes I've posted thus far were an excercise to try out a few designs and techniques to then make some more in a limited run for some galleries. Your welcome to come up anytime , just not at easter .

Bruce, your small joinery is superb, and your combinations of timber are gorgeous. Do you run workshops that help lesser mortals achieve such results?

Hi guy's,
I have run a few classes but being mostly a 1 man band I don't have much time to commit to it , hopefully in the future I'll be able to do something.
