This is a pot pourri of recent boards that made it to the finish line.
The first cutting board was a special order, and it’s the first piece I’m completed that uses Mesquite. Further down in this group is a Lazy Susan that better showcases this wood that’s uncommon in Southern California.
At the bottom of this group are a pair of “Family” signs that are the first of the true 3D carving signs that I’ve gotten to the finish line. Both of these are made from Hard Maple, though one of them is made from a dark wood that’s got some curly figure in it … unusual for Maple.
I got disorganized enough that a few pieces made it out of the shop and to last week’s event … and were sold before I got their pictures. That has not happened before!
I’ve got 4 more Lazy Susans in the shop that just might be finished for this weekend’s event … but I’ve got several custom orders that will be my focus this week.

I know these are a good idea … but you can add them to the long list of good ideas that seldom make it out of the garage woodshop.
I have been sold out of hearts for a year – a year! – but I finally found the time to make more.
These hearts each have Bloodwood in them (naturally). They are about 11″ across and 3/4″ thick. They’re made for 2-sided use; no feet on these.
Because they are hearts.
When you’re making, you have to know what you’re making. And then … make it in a way that is true.
That’s the philosophy.
Here are the hearts.
Heart 18 – 901. Jatoba, Hard Maple, Cherry & Bloodwood. 11″ x 11″ x 3/4″.
