Wow! I havent seen a good 2 girl set in a long time. Quinne is so damn hot! Thats surprising too because I dont like big bewbs. At all. Lots of ass grabing in that set too and I like that. Go check it out if you havent already.

Im going to bore yall with some of my work. Its more like play time for me but it looks more like work Im sure. I started working on these two projects a longassfuckingtime ago but with working getting out of hand and taking trips to Syracuse and Chicago, I got a little sidetracked. So, in order to divert my mind away from bullshit I decided to buckle down here at the shop and get these things done. Over the last five days Ive spent well over 75 hours here. I think I left here somewhere around 2 am last night. I was jammin to these guys most of the day.



Here are a bunch of peectures.

SPOILERS! (Click to view)


Raw table


Being veneered





Sanded and being stained





Seal coat and lacquer finish




Almost finished product




Ive ordered these antique copper decorative diamond head screws that will finish it off for me and give it more of a rustic look I think but here is an example of one of them





SPOILERS! (Click to view)


Started off with a template and transfered the desing to two different types of veneer.



The background piece needed to have the design cut out of it and left whole with the inlayed pieces needed to be cut out and fit into the other sheet of veneer.





After its all taped together it needs to be glued up and stuck to an actual piece of wood which will be formed into a table. After the glue sets I can peel all the tape off.






Its hard to tell through pictures but when youre in front of it and realize that the design is actually wood and not painted on, it looks a lot better.




Im thinking about selling these, maybe on ebay or something, but I dont really know much about it. And I dont know how much to ask for. What do you all think? How much would you pay for something like that? Honest opinions. If you think they look like ass, I wont care. Constructive criticism is fine but dont take out the fact that your life sucks and you wont do anything about it on me.

Ive been trying to take lots of pictures lately of the projects Ive been on and the specialty things like this that I can do. For one, its good to have pictures of stuff like this. Two, Im trying to put together a descent resume and it always helps to have proof that youre not talking out of your ass when it comes to what you can and cant do and your abilities.

So why am I trying to build things to sell them and put together a resume? I want to move. Badly. I dont like it here anymore. Ive been wanting to move to Columbus since I got out of the Marines. My buddy, Bob, recently moved down there and has been trying to convince me to do so. I went down there last weekend and hung out. I compiled a list of shops that look like a place I might want to work at. I got ten different ones. This wont all happen for a few more months but Im almost positive it will. Bob said I could stay with him until I was able to get an appartment or whatever so its all slowly starting to come together. So, if these things do sell and I can make more of them, than everything will be just fine.

I think it would be awesome to have a little shop where I could just make furniture and stuff all day long and sell it. Not something thats gonna make me millions ya know. Just something to live comfartable off of. I enjoy doing it a lot and I think Im lucky to have learned what I have here. I guess thats kind of a dream of mine. Its hard to do though. Finding the right client base and being able to sell on a consistent basis. Maybe one day Ill be able to do that.

Dogs playing poker make me happy.

My mom's family doesn't really even get together like they used to, and we're all crazy so alcohol would just paint a really bad picture.
My dad's family is very fancy and proper. There will be no good drunken times for me.
