Thanks for the kind words guys,

Wongo i can imagine those chairs of yours would have caused the odd sleepless night, don't think i`d have enough panadol to go through that :D
They turned out...

Cheers Wongo:2tsup:

We need someone like yourself to come up with a matching chair design.
I`ve been trying to come up with something, but all i`ve managed so far is a headache:D

Hi Guys,

Just completed this new design here, this is the second of this series that we have now completed.
This one features a pyramid shaped base with internal led lighting, we achieve this...

Thanks Alex,

Just had a look at your website, very impressive, those boxes look amazing!!

Thanks John:2tsup:

I think on the next one we`ll make the panels a little smaller so we have some more wood showing on the legs.

This one is being donated to the Shake it up foundation, hoping...

Hi Christos :2tsup:

We have had quite a bit on the go, just had to put this one on hold till we found some spare time.
I`m still struggling to photograph it as it appears in person, the legs...

Hi Guys,

Hi All,

Have just completed a couple of projects in some Marri we have had sitting aside here for quite some time.
We had this lot radiocarbon dated at 245 years old, it`s got some pretty...

Thanks for the feedback fella`s:2tsup:

I think having a 10mm shadow line underneath the base is a great idea, we are currently working on figuring out a way to run battery operated led`s inside...

I think we`d both come a distant second to the Chinese imports :D

Crikey, better go put on my karate suit :U

We happen to make a pretty good living selling such furniture, it`s not everyones thing for sure, but neither are the older genres.
Myself the...

Hi Guys,

Have had this design floating around for a while now and we have started to put it into practice.

The first concept is made from WA Sheoak, it`s going to be a 1.5m square table, ...

Hi Christos,

It wasnt an easy piece to photograph as there are a few angles in there.
It`s good to get some feedback/ other opinions.

In person the top doesnt look any thicker at that end...

Cheers John:2tsup:
I`m with you as WA Sheoak is one of my favourite woods, in such a simple design such as this one the wood does the talking.

Hi Guys,

Have been meaning to post here for some time but finally got around to doing so.
Just finished a new Hall table, it`s one of the smaller items we have made but it`s one of my...

Really like the curve in the top there Pete, the inlay looks great.

Once the whole thing is together you`ll have a spectacular piece:2tsup:

Thanks Guys:2tsup:

Cheers Waldo, i think thats an excellent idea, i really like your designs and it`s all food for thought.
Yes it`s share and share alike around here :D
...

Cheers Tea Lady & Waldo:2tsup:

Waldo, thats an excellent idea, so you mean a small stainless inlay in the table top, or on the end in the middle?

Either way i think it`d tie...

Hi All,

Has been a while since i posted any progress pics, have just got a new leg design up and running here and would like some feedback.

This is going to be used on our Jarrah, Marri &...

Hi Richard,

Nice score on the Huon Pine:2tsup:

With what you have there, as something a little different, maybee even a 3 leg design may work well.

Google "3 leg table" or "coffee...

G`Day Terry :2tsup:

The photography side of things is sometimes harder, and definately more frustrating, than actually building the piece being photographed :D

I got some thin see through...

Hi Brendon,

Sorry i`m late replying, had some wild storms here and lost power for a few days.
Neil also has a good article in his Polishers book so i`d also recomend picking up a copy of that....

Hi Brendon,

Here`s a good article on cutting back finishes,
Finishes and finishing techniques - Google Books

I use a 3m grey scotchbrite with a water/detergent lubricant over a 30% Gloss...

HI Mate,

I`ve got a Wood Wizz and could surface and sand that slab if your interested.
I`m about 90mins east of Perth but could pickup and drop off easily enough.

PM me if interested.

Hi Danny,

I`ve been using the Becker Acroma DM 307 for a couple of months now, it`s a great product and i highly recomend it.

I`m using a 2mm nozzle on a HVLP gun at about 25psi, ...

I really like the design Wongo.
And the execution is every but as good too, great job:2tsup:

Awesome dazza:2tsup:
Were they Jarrah or karri burls, either way i think they`ll definately come up a treat.

The first Exhibition is at SODA in North fremantle 27 & 28th Nov at their Studio

The next is the following weekend 4th & 5th Dec at the Fremantle Arts Centre, 1 Finnerty Street, ...

It`s built to spec Terry :2tsup:
Allthough it`s going in a couple of art Exhibitions in fremantle in early december along with a Karri Burl i`m about to start on.
Have another base design in the...

Hey cheers for the kind word guys, appreciate it :2tsup:

Gumred,
I really like the Becker Acroma 30% Gloss, it seems to give a far superior finish to the Protec. It seems...

Thats a real Beauty Lignum:2tsup:

Thats some cheap labour tho, surely you`d be need to pay him over $2/hr :D

I must try some of that Amaron laquer sometime, i havent been able to...

Hi Fella`s,

Just putting the finishing touches on this Jarrah Burl i got from forum member Ed Wood. Cheers Ed for your hospitality and great deal on these burls.

This one is a decent...

G`Day Spencer:2tsup:

That sounds like a great idea, the only thing is we`d need a few numbers to make it work.

But if you need any help getting it up and running give me a...

Hi Arry,

You can give the stainless steel mfrs a try as well, but it`ll cost you around $1200-1300 and upwards.

A few more WIP pics here, i`ve got 3 coats on there now and probably have another 3 to go depending on how the finish goes along the way.

I usually de-nib with 320 between coats, the...

Cheers everyone:2tsup:

Forgot to mention, i didnt quite have enough width to make a full bookmatched panel so had to insert another piece in the centre section.
Thought the inlay work would...

Love the look of those chairs Wongo, it`ll be a great finished set.
Geez that table looks nice too:2tsup:

Hi Fella`s,

It`s a 2x12" Guitar Speaker cabinet with Wenge and Silver ash inlay work. The...

Congrats on the commission AB,

I`m not sure how stable the design would be, but IMO it`s great to see someone pushing the limits of what can and cant be done.

Good on ya i say:2tsup:

The cabs are coming along great Steve:2tsup:

Really dig the faceplate on the headshell too, thats a cool design with the 2 stripes in there.

With the grillcloth dont be afraid to remove the...

Hi Jynks,

Thats a real nice outdoor area you have there:2tsup:

I think the best bet is to fill the cracks with an epoxy, if you visit Fibreglass sales and resins just off Orrong Rd they`ll...

Hey cheers for the kind words there fella`s:2tsup:

Mr Brush i`d say the higher gloss finish will show scratches and dings moreso than the usuall 30% Gloss i use. It is a pretty durable finish...

Hi Fella`s,

Just finishished this comission for an amplifier replacement headshell and a 2x12" Guitar speaker cabinet.

I decided to use contrasting domino`s on this lot and it`s come up ok, ...
